2.Why does the author think shipping is a major success story? What are the reasons for the success?
Shipping is a quite successful industry in Britain because it brings in foreign exchange earnings, which is of vital importance for the country.There are two reasons for the success.One is that British ship-owners have put in big investment,and the other is there has been a conference which is used to fix prices in order to avoid cut-throat competition.
3.What stiff foreign competition threatens the British fleet?
The stiff foreign competition comes from two main direction: first, it is the Russians and the Eastern bloc countries that are massively expanding their merchant navies and doing their best to step into the international shipping trade by severely undercutting Western shipping companies;second, it is the merchant fleets of the developing countries who are struggling to take over a big share of the trade between Europe and Africa,Asia and Far East----routes over which Britain used have a total dominance.
4.What is a 'conference'? What role does it play?
A 'conference' is in fact a cartel.It plays a very important role in the international shipping trade in that it helps prevent competition and pulls companies through hard times.
5.Which sectors of the shipping industry were mot affected by the depression starting from 1974?
The oil-tanker fleets were the first to be affected.

7.How are the Third World countries trying to get a big share of the international sea-borne shipping trade? Do you think their demands just?

8.How are the British shipping companies trying to meet the challenge?Are they confident that they can counter the challenge successfully?
In order to meet the challenge from the Third World,they shift to high-technology investment.Because the Third World can't follow.
9.Why, according to the author, is the Soviet Union keeping the largest liner fleet in the world?
There are two motives that the Soviet Union keeps the largest liner fleet in the world.On one hand,Russia wants to earn hard currencies;on the other hand,it desires to increase its sphere of influence in the world,which is a deeper motive.
10.According to the author Britain is handicapped in her attempts to counter the challenges of the developing world and the Soviet Union at an international level.
What are these handicaps or problems? Does this tell us anything about the capitalist world?
T he major problems are the Soviet Union's massive expansion of its merchant navy and undercutting of Western shipping companies, and UNCTAD, which guarantees the developing countries a major slice of the shipping trade.The problems also show that the capitalist word is divided rather than united, as each of them is only concerned about its own interests.
