背景与指南(BACKGROUND AND DIRECTIONS)
我们知道，去国外承包工程，就需要我们派遣有关技术人员和管理人员到国外去，这就涉及到国际旅行(International Traveling)的问题，因而，作为从事国际工程的有关人员就需要学习一些旅途用语和了解一些飞行常识，以便顺利地到达工程施工所在国。
一般说来，一个项目的人员往往分批而行，由于人多事杂，大家要相互照应，注意带好自己的物品，尤其是护照(Passport)和机票(Ticket)。登机前，要到有关航空公司的机场服务台(Check-in Counter)凭机票和护照领取登机卡(Boarding Card)，并办理托运行李手续。注意，在行李标签上一定要填写清楚你的姓名和将行李托运到的地方，填写名字时，要注意英语的Given Name是“名”，而Last Name／Family Name／Surname则指的是“姓”，以免取行李时遇到麻烦。航空公司对免费托运的行李重量有一定的限额(baggage allowance)，一般为七十磅(约为三十二公斤)，超重的部分要缴纳托运费，而且费用很高，所以，登机前要问清楚，尽可能避免超重。另外，对每件行李的重量也有限制。
在飞机上，用餐是免费的，饮料一般也是免费的，但有些航班对供应的各种不含酒精的饮料(Soft Drinks)不收费，对供应的啤酒(Beer)却是收费的。要喝啤酒，可要做好空中小姐(stewardess／Air Hostess向你“one dollar，please．”(请付一美元．)的准备哟。在到达目的地前，机上服务人员就会发给你两张表格，一张是旅客入境卡(Landing Card)和另一张是海关申报单(Customs Statement)。在每座位靠背后的袋子里一般都有旅客须知之类的小册子(Brochure)，里面有告诉旅客怎样填写的说明和范例，可供你参考。下飞机后，你得先到机场移民局，交上旅客人境卡，移民局官员在检查你的护照和签证并询问一些问题之后，若没发现问题，就会让你人境。接下来你需要到领取行李处(Baggage Claim Area)领取行李。最后再到海关(Customs)交上海关申报单，办理人关手续。
如果你是过境(in transit)，在过境国短暂停留几天后，还须换机(Change Planes)向工程实施所在国继续飞行。到机场候机大厅后，若所乘航班办理登机手续的服务台不好找，可向机场内的工作人员询问，他们将会很乐意地给予帮助。在得到人家的帮助之后，可别忘了说一句“Thank you．”呀。
UNIT 2 SETTLING DOWN
After such a long-distance international flight, the construction crew has finally arrived at the destination. Despite the
jet lag and the inconvenience of their stay in the hotel, everyone is busy making preparations for the commencement of the big job, studying the technical data and specifications, discussing the construct -ion plan, and so on.

Neal：Well, I did have a house for rent. But it’s been let out.
Zhang：Sorry to hear that. By the way, do you know anyone who has a house for rent nearby?
Neal：Let me see. My friend Sam told me a few weeks ago that he wanted to rent his house. I think it’s a big house.
You could check with him.
Zhang：That’s just what we’re looking for. What’s his telephone number, please?
Neal：2237.
Zhang：Could I have your friend's name again?
Neal：Sam, Sam Carter.
Zhang：Thanks a lot. Bye.

Man：Sorry, there’s no one here by that name.
Zhang：Wh at’s your telephone number then?
Man：2337.
Zhang：I’m very sorry, I must have dialed the wrong number. * * * * * * * *
Zhang：Hello, is Mr. Carter there?
Woman：Just a minute. He’s coming.
Carter：Hello. Carter speaking. Who is calling, please?
Zhang：My name’s Zhang. I have been told that you have a house for rent. Is it still available?
Carter：Yes．It’s a two-stoery building with six bed-rooms on the first floor and two on the ground floor. It has, two bathrooms, one on each floor. There’s a good kitchen where you could do cooking．We also have a cable TV and a tele-phone that you can use in the house.
Zhang：Perhaps it’s just what we need．What’s the monthly rent?
Cafter：How long will the lease be?
Zhang：About four months.
Carter：Then two thousand dollars．And the rent is due at the end of each month. You can use all the utilities，but you have to pay all the bills including the telephone service, cable TV, water, gas and electricity. By the way, you also have to pay a security deposit of one thousand dollars.
Zhang：Is there any space for office work in the house?
Carter：There is a big sitting room on the ground floor。I think it’s where you can do your office work.
Zhang：0ne more thing, are we allowed to install a fax machine in the house if we take it? Probably we will need one. Carter：Yes, if you like. But you have to pay all the costs for it.
Zhang：Good. Would it be possible for us to go there and have a look tomorrow?
Cafter：Any time before four o’clock in the afternoon. You can come to Okis Restaurant I'm running here in Benque,
Cayo District. It’s on George Street. Benque is a small town. Everyone here knows Okis. I can wait for you here．
Zhang：OK. We will go there tomorrow, around ten o’clock in the mo rning. Will that be all right with you? Cafter：OK. See you tomorrow, sir.
Zhang：Thank you. M. Carter, See you tomorrow morning．
2．Subletting the Construction Camp
(Mr. Yang from COCC has made an appointment by telephone with Mr. Howell, President of World Shelters, a local company which specializes in residential buildings. They are going to talk about the possibility of subletting the construction camp to World Shelters.)
Receptionist：Good morning, sir. Can I help you?
Yang：Good morning. I have an appointment with Mr. Howell at 9.
Receptionist：Your name, sir?
Yang：Yang, from COCC, the Hydro.
Receptionist：Ah, yes. Mr. Howell is expecting you in his office．Let me show you in. This way, please.
Yang：Thank you.
(Entering Mr. Howell’s office)
Howell：Hello, Mr. Yang. Very pleased to meet you in person.
Yang：Very pleased to meet you，too, Mr. Howell.
Howell：Take a seat, please.
Yang：Thank you.
Howell：Well, how is everything going, Mr. Yang?
Yang：Not too bad. Just busy. We’re quite new h ere, you know.
Howell：What’s your first impression of our country?
Yang：It’s a beautiful country with plenty of primeval forests. People here are friendly and very easy to get along with. It seems to me that most of the people here speak quite differen t English. It’s hard to understand them sometimes.
Howell：You will soon get used to it. Only officials, teachers and businessmen speak standard English.
Yang：So it seems.
Howell：Let’s get down to business, Mr. Yang. You asked me on the phone whether we would like to bid for a construction camp to accommodate eighty men. Could you put it in more detail, please?
Yang：As you know，the camp will mainly be for the accommodation of about eighty Chinese men who will be working for the Hydro. It includes double occupancy staff units, four man occupancy units for workers and cooks, a kitchen and dining unit, shower bath units, office units, a conference room and a recreation unit. Howell：So the camp will accommodate about eighty men. Do you have any specific requirements?
Yang：I would like to hear your recommendation.
Howell：In my opinion, there’s a kind of prefabricated house which is most suitable for such a camp．It’s easy and economical to transport, fast to erect and very convenient to dismantle for either relocation or disposal when the whole project is completed.
Yang：Sounds fine. What’s it made of?
Howell：Light concrete slabs. They are often imported from a local supplier in El Salvador.
Yang：Good. Would you please give us a quotation for such a camp on a turn-key basis as soon as possible? Howell：All right. Where will the camp be located?
Yang：Somewhere on Arenal Road in Benque Town, Cayo District. I’ll let you know right after we finalize it with
the Owner.
Howell：Who will be responsible for leveling the ground for the camp site?
Yang：We will do that. You will be responsible for the water and power supply. One more thing, this is a duty-free project. So everything imported for it is duty-free. Please take it into consideration in your quotation．Howell：In that case, our quotation will be much lower.
Yang：We really appreciate that.
Howell：When do you want the camp to be completed.
Yang：Within sixty days, starting from our notice to commence the Work.
Howell：OK. Mr. Yang. I hope we can be given the opportunity to work for you and if so, we will hold ourselves responsible to you and I believe we will surely do a good job.
Yang：I hope so, too.

These are three common ways to start a telephone conversation when you ask for somebody on the phone.
Now you try using the above expressions to start-your telephone conversations.
1) A：下午好，我想和你们经理Clark先生通话。我是Macal项目处的Zhang．(Good afternoon, may I speak to Mr.
Clark, your manager? This is Zhang calling from Macal Project.)
B：Just a minute, Mr. Zhang. I’ll put you through.
2）A：您好，我想请你们的总经理Silva先生接电话。
(Hello, I’d like to speak to Mr. Silva, your president, please.)
B：I’m sorry, sir. Mr. Silva is now having a very important meeting and cannot take any calls. Will you call him again later in the afternoon, please?

2．In the text, the word“responsible”appears in three sentences---“Who will be responsible for leveling the ground for the camp site?"(哪一方负责平整营地的场地?)；“You’ll be responsible for the water and power supply?”(但你方应负责供水供电。)；“…and if so, we’ll hold ourselves responsible to you…”(……如果这样的话，我方将向你方负责……). Often the word“responsible”is used in specifying and clarifying the responsibilities between the parties to a contract during a negotiation.
Now you try doing the following：
1) A：We need all the data on hydrological and subsurface conditions before we start the job.
B：我们可以提供相关资料，但你方应对这些资料的解释负责。
(We could provide relevant data to you, but you are responsible for your own interpretation of them.)
2) A：We require that you rectify the damages which happened to the Works on the 15th of this month at your own
cost.
B：我们认为我方不应为此损坏负责，因为合同规定，工程的某一部分一旦移交给业主，承包商否再承担保护该部分工程的义务，而损坏显然是由人故意破坏引起的。
(We don’t thin k that we are responsible for the damage. As stipulated in the contract, once a part of the Works has been handed over to the Employer, the contractor shall not have the obligation to protect it. Further, the damage is obviously due to vandalism．)
3) A：如果我们接受你们指定的分包商，我们是否就其或其雇员的行为向你方负责?
(If we accept the subcontractor nominated by you, do we have to hold ourselves responsible to you for his or his employees’ behavior?)
B：是的，如果他们有甚么过错的话，你们作为总包商应为引起的一切后果负责．
(Yes, as the general contractor, you will be responsible for all the consequences arising from their misconduct.)
背景与指南(BACKGROUND AND DIRECTIONS)
初到工程施工所在国，首先解决的就是居住(housing)问题。由于住旅馆既不经济也不方便，因而，在自己的生活营地(man camp)建好之前，我们的施工人员一般都租一所离工地较近又能自己做饭的房子。租房前，可以先了解一下当地租房的行情。你可以查看当地报纸上的有关租房广告(advertisement)，也可寻求业主的帮助或向你熟悉的当地人(locals)打听有关信息。“与房东(1andlord／landlady)见面前，一般先打电话询问房子的大致情况。如果认为房子合适的话，还可进一步问问租房的条件，包括每月租金(rental)，租期(1ease)，是否要押金(security deposit)，房子中有哪些设施以及设施的使用费是否包含在租金中，等等。如果条件可以接受，可以约定时间亲自去看一下房子。最后，双方还需签订一个租赁协议(sign a lease agreement)。
由于刚刚到达工程施工所在国，承包商(contractor)的主要施工人员没有到达，机械设备也还没有运至现场(construction site)，所以，施工营地(construction Camp)的建设常常分包给当地的建筑公司(local construction company)。一般情况下。承包商往往请业主(employer)向其推荐几家比较有信誉的当地公司，然后逐一去这些公司了解情况。在提出了基本要求之后，让这些公司为承建营地的临时住房办公用房，(residential and office buildings)以及其它相应设施报价(offer／bid)，然后比较一下几家的方案和报价，从中择优。由于是临时工程(temporary-works)，承包商最好不要把要求提得太具体，但要强调要经济实用，以便让分包商(subcontractor)根据当地的具体情况(如：气候，习惯等)提出自己的实施方案，使建造营地的费用尽可能降低，从而获得较低报价。
UNIT 3 POSSESSING AND LAYING OUT THE SITE
To start the execution of Works, the Contractor needs to take possession of the site for the Owner and plan the layout of the whole site for approval by the Owner. The two parties are discussing the matters in handing over and arranging the site.
1. The Owner hands over the site late
(Mr. Bian, Project Manager from the Contractor, and Mr. Cheng, Chief Engineer, are talking to the Owner’s Representative, Mr. Sukhnandan, who looks very young and energetic, and the Consultant, Mr. Shaw, who seems to be quite experienced.)
…
Bian：Last week, we sent you a letter, asking you to hand over the whole site to us, including the access road. But we haven’t received a reply yet. The Contract is quite specific about this in its special conditions: Possession of the Site shall be given to the Contractor on the date named in the Appendix 1, which is April 20,1992. Today is April 26. It’s already one week late.
Sukh：I’m sorry about this, Mr. Bian. Unfortunately we have met with some difficulty in requisitioning the land on the left bank of the river for the site areas. You know, some of the land is privately owned and the owners won’t
agree to sell the land. Nor do they want to grant us permission to use it because they are afraid that the project will disturb their peaceful life.
Shaw：Some people here are obsessed with their traditional life, They don’t want to have a change of their life! You’ll never understand them.
Cheng：It’s so puzzling! They should know that they will get benefit from this project. At least they could get t he lighting power easily, at a much lower price.
Sukh：We’ve already promised to provide them with electric power for lighting free of charge. In return, they let us use their land for nothing.
Bian：When do you think you can solve the problem and make the whole site and the access road available to us? This is what were concerned about.
Shaw：At present, the access road has been built up to the dam site and we are beginning to build the road to the power—house from the junction．It happens to be the rainy season and the rains have slowed down our progress, but we are making a great effort to finish it soon.
Sukh：So we can hand over to you the completed access road and the area on the right bank so that you can begin the preparation work there, You can have the m from tomorrow. I’ll give you a letter of confirmation right after this meeting. Once we solve our problem with the owners, which I believe we can soon, we will hand over the remaining part of the site area.
Bian：Mr. Sukhnandan, let me make it plain to you. The delay in handing over the site area has adversely affected our construction plan. We have to request you to extend the completion time of this Project accordingly. Meanwhile, we reserve the right to be reimbursed for any costs incurred because of the delay. Fifteen engineers and technicians are already here waiting eagerly to start their jobs. A lot of preparation work needs to be done by us, especially the traffic road within the site.
Sukh：I understand your position, Mr. Bian. As for the compensat ion, we’ll try to settle this matter according to the contract.
Bian：To make this project a success, we need cooperation from each other.
Sukh：I couldn’t agree more.
2. Laying out the site
(To construct the works smoothly and efficiently, the site needs to be arranged properly. Today, Mr. Bian and Mr. Cheng are talking to Mr. Sukhnandan about the plan to lay out the whole site.)
Sukh：The other day, you told me that you were going to build up two camps on the site. Could you elaborate on your plan, Mr. Bian?
Bian：According to our construction plan, our first camp, which we call“Camp A”, will be located at the junction of the two access roads leading to the dam and the power house. It will mainly be used for storage of construction materials, spare parts, etc… A parking lot and a repair shop will be set up within this area. The power bender will also be located here.
Sukh：What will be the size of this camp?
Bian：It will cover an area of about 4000 square meters.
Sukh：How much is that in acres? I am not quite familiar with the Metric System.
Bian：Sorry, we are not used to the British System．
Cheng：Just a minute. Let me work it out with my small calculator. Let’s see, …
It’s 4785 square yards. About one acre.
Sukh：That’s acceptable. This piece of land belongs to the government. We’ll get it approved soon. What about the other camp?
Bian：The other camp, which we call“Camp B”, is mainly for the accommodation of the Chinese professionals and the offices. It’s also where we have our weekly and monthly review mee tings. What do you call this kind of camp? Shaw：Man camp, to be specific, but it belongs to construction camp in general；or you could say it’s part of the whole construction camp.
Sukh：There’s no clear distinction between these terms, even among profession als. When will it be located?
Bian：On the right-hand side of the access road, about half a mile from Camp A. It will occupy approximately the same area.
Sukh：Why do you have to choose this area, Mr. Bian? It is a part of this Country’s nature preserve. Tho ugh our government is in full support of this project, it will don’t sanction it at the price of damaging its beautiful environment. I don’t think we could get t he approval from the appropriate department.
Bian：You see, this area is ideal for Camp B. It’s comparatively flat and this makes it easy for us to build the houses for bedrooms and offices. The key point is, it’s close to the job site and the source of a potable water supply. Once we are given that piece of land, we’ll be strictly confined to it and do everything we can to keep it in good order.
Anyway, could you have a try with the government, please?
Sukh：OK, if you insist. But I don’t see much chance of its being approved.
Bian：Now, I would like Mr. Cheng to describe our plan to arrange the other temporary facilities on the site．Cheng：From our site investigations, we have found a piece of land with a gentle slope, where we want to locate the batching plant and the crushing system because it is very close to the dam site and easy to be flattened.
Sukh：What’s the exact distance from the dam site and in which direction?
Cheng：It’s 500 meters, oh, around 1630 feet in your system, to the south of the dam site, on the right bank of the River.
If we can get the approval, it will facilitate our concrete production and transportation.
Sukh：Will you submit to us all the layouts of the temporary works together with a 1etter of application? We’ll try to get them approved Soon, if possible.
Bian：The sooner, the better.
Sukh：I will do my best, but I can’t commit myself to getting the approval. All I can promise is that you will have a reply within a week, whether positive or negative.
Bian：That’s what the Contract says!

背景与指南(BACKGROUND AND DIRECTION)
为了能使承包商顺利地开工(commence the work)，在国际工程承包(international project contracting)合同中一般都对承包商占有现场(possession of the site) 作出规定。有的合同规定了业主给予承包商现场占有现场各部分的范围(extent)、顺序(order) 及具体日期(date) ；有的则规定，在业主代表或业主的监理工程师签发开工命令(issue commencement order) 同时，按照已批准的进度计划(approved programme)，由业主陆续提供各期间施工所需的现场部分(portions of the site)。同时还规定，若业主不能按规定提供现场，承包商有权获得相应的延期(extension of time) 以及有关费用的补偿(cost compensation)。
由于能否及时占有现场直接关系到承包商是否顺利地实施工程，承包商在施工准备阶段(construction preparation stage)的最重要的任务之一就是督促业主将现场按时移交(hand over the Site on time)。一旦业主没按时移交现场，承包商要在合同规定的时间内，向业主发出有关工期及费用的索赔意向通知(notification of his intention to claim)，以弥补自己的损失。
合理的现场布置有助于承包商高效率地进行工作(work efficiently)。生活营地(man camp)，材料储存场(storage area)，混凝土搅拌厂(batching plant)，以及施工设备停放场(parking lot) 的安排要以便利施工为标准。但现场的布置一般要征得业主的同意。由于环境保护等方面的原因，有时现场的设置还要经主管部门(appropriate department) 审批承包商要尽力说服业主同意自己安排并寻求主管部门韵批准。为此，承包商可向业主作出一些有关承诺。
UNIT 4 PROCURING THE GOODS (1)
To get the project under way, a lot of equipment and materials are required. ALL these have to be purchased or hired and delivered to the construction site. The purchasing clerks of the Contractor make enquiries, negotiate supply contracts and, sometimes, hire equipment that is needed for a short period only. If the goods are imported from a third country or the home country of the Contractor, they will have to go through the Customs clearance formalities and, therefore, a Customs by the Contractor.
1. Making an Enquiry
(Mr. Huang, who is in charge of purchasing the goods for the Hydro Project, is now in Hurricane Trading Corporation enquiring of Mr. Chamberlain, Sales Manager of the Corporation about some construction materials.)
Cham: Hello, Mr. Huang. How nice to see you again!
Huang : Nice to see you-again, too, Mr. Chamberlain.
Cham: When did you come back to this country?
Huang: Only last week. How is the business?
Cham: Pretty good. I hear that COCC has won the contract to construct the hydro works. Is that true?
Huang : You're well informed Yes, that's why I am back. When I came here to study the local market for the preparation of our bid last November, I told you that I would come again for a detailed business talk with
you once we got the contract. Now, I am here again.
Cham : We really appreciate your visit, Mr. Huang. Our corporation has just expanded business operations, thanks to increasing demand and our good reputation. I addition to steel and lumber, we now also deal in such
construction materials as cement,bitumen and PVC pipes. Here is our new catalogue.
Huang : Thank you.
Cham: Do you have any idea of what to order from us?
Huang : Let me see. Please quote us for Catalogue no. 12 , that is, Grade 60, A615 hot rolled corrugated steel bars of size 3/8”X 40’. Remember that if the price is acceptable to us, we’ll place an order of not less than 50
tons for the first delivery.
Cham: I know you're a big potential customer for us. We certainly give you a most favourable price even for the first deal. I believe we will be able to build a good business relationship with each other.
Cham: No problem. The technical data are always available from the laboratory of the manufacturer.
Huang: To be frank with you, I've enquired of several local trading companies and I'm also waiting for their quotations, but I hope you will be chosen as our long-term supplier.
