General Description of a Ship
The main body of a ship is called a hull. The hull is divided into three main parts: the foremost part is called the bow and the rearmost part is called the stern; the part in between is called amidships. The hull is the main part of the ship. This is the area between the main deck, the sides (port and starboard) and the bottom. It is made up of frames covered with plating. The part of the hull below water is the ship's underwater body. The distance between the waterline and the main deck is the vessel's freeboard. The hull is divided up into a number of watertight compartments by decks and bulkheads. Bulkheads are vertical steel walls going across the ship and along.
The hull contains the engine room, cargo space and a number of tanks. The engine is fitted near the bottom of the ship in the engine room. In dry cargo ships the cargo space is divided into holds. Openings giving access to holds are called hatches. In liquid cargo vessels the cargo space is divided into tanks. At the fore end of the hull are the forepeak tanks, and at the after end are afterpeak tanks. They are used for fresh water and fuel. If a ship has double sides, the space between the sides contains wing tanks. The space between the tank top and the space contains double bottom tanks.
All permanent housing above the main deck is known as superstructure. Nowadays, cargo vessels are normally built with the after location of the engine room and bridge superstructure to gain more space for cargo. The forward raised part of the deck is called the forecastle and its after raised part is the poop. On deck there are cargo handling equipment, such as cranes, winches, derricks and etc.
Other parts and equipment of a ship include funnels (smokestacks) situated near the bridge to discharge smoke and exhaust fumes, an anchor on the left and right sides of the bow, and enough lifeboats to hold all persons onboard. Modern ships have power-driven winches to raise or lower the anchors and to bring in or let out the mooring lines used to tie vessels at a pier. Power-driven winches also operate the cranes for loading and unloading cargo. The cargo is loaded and discharged to the holds through the cargo hatches. Booms that are fitted to the masts are called derricks', they are necessary for cargo operations, especially if there is no possibility to use harbour's cranes
Modem ships also have high-speed pumps to pump out ballast water or to pump up seawater in case of fire. Radio-telegraph equipment keeps ships in constant touch with the rest of the world. The maximum breadth of a ship is the beam. The total length measured from the foremost to the aftermost points of a ship's hull is called the length overall. The draught is the depth of the ship's bottom or keel below the water surface. The forward draught is measured at the bow and the draught aft at the stern.

Exercise 6. Read the dialogue and then make up your own one.
A: So, this is a cargo ship, isn’t it?
B: Yes. It’s a general cargo ship. Now we are on the navigating bridge. This is the place where the captain and his mates control the ship. If we look forward we’ll see the main deck and the forecastle. The main deck (or we can call it weather deck) covers the cargo spaces or holds. There are openings cut in the decks, and those openings are the hatches, one to each hold.
A: How do you load the cargo into the hold and discharge it?
B: We use derricks. A derrick is a strong boom (грузовая стрела) made of steel and wood, that can swing from side to side. But a lot of ships are fitted with cranes.
A: How many holds are there on the ship?
B: There are four on the main deck forward and one right aft. We number them from one to five. And each hold is served by two derricks.
A: You’ve mentioned the forecastle, haven’t you?
B: Yes, right so. The forecastle is that small extra deck above the main deck, forward of number one hold, right up in the bow. It carries the anchors and their cables. I’ll take you up there in a few minutes.

Exercise 8. Translate the sentences into Russian.
The raised part of the deck in the ship’s bow is called the forecastle and its raised part at the stern of weather deck is the poop.
Decks and bulkheads divide the hull up into several of watertight compartments.
The hull is divided into three main parts such as the bow, the stern and the part in between that is called amidships.
The after location of the engine room and bridge superstructure to gain more space for cargo are the most common on modern cargo ships.
If water floods one compartment because of an accident, closing the doors will trap the water there and prevent it from flooding other compartments.
On a diesel-electric ship, the engine turns a generator that supplies current to an electric motor connected to the propeller shaft.
Radio-telegraph equipment keeps ships in constant touch with the rest of the world.
Steam produced in the boilers through a series of gears drives the propeller shaft and makes the propeller revolve.
Different cranes, derricks and booms are necessary for cargo operations, especially if there is no possibility to use harbour's cranes.
The draught is the depth of the ship's bottom or keel below the water surface.
Exercise 9. Translate the sentences into English.
Чтобы обеспечить прочность и увеличить безопасности плавания корпус судна разделяется водонепроницаемыми переборками на ряд отсеков.
Форпик и ахтерпик используются обычно для забортной воды (балласта).
3. Отсеки, предназначенные для приема, воды, жидкого топлива или жидкого груза, называются цистернами или танками.
Отсеки судна, расположенные между вторым дном и нижней палубой и предназначенные для перевозки грузов, называются грузовыми трюмами.
На грузопассажирских судах в твиндеках размещают жилые помещения (accommodation).
Носовая приподнятая часть палубы называется полубак, а кормовая – ют.
На палубе грузовых судов размещено погрузочно-разгрузочное оборудование, например, лебедки, деррики, краны и т.д.
* Большинство современных судов оснащены разными системами, которые помогают эффективно использовать судно.
* Самые распространенные двигатели на судах – это газовые и паровые турбины, а также дизельные установки.
* Во время постановки судна к причалу используются механизированные лебедки, которые автоматически подают швартовы.
