第 三 題
思路引導 VIP
這是一題典型的海事公證報告中翻英，核心在於測驗應考者是否能精準使用正式的海事商務及保險術語。看到此題應先抓出關鍵字（如：大風浪 heavy weather、受貨人 Consignee、保險金額 insured amount 等），並採用公證報告慣用的客觀、專業句型（如 Based on our survey, we are of the opinion that...），切忌直翻或過於口語化。
【譯文】 Based on our survey, we are of the opinion that the incident might have occurred during the voyage between Hong Kong and Keelung, attributable to the violent shifting of the cargo inside the container caused by encountering heavy weather at sea. The agent of ABC Shipping in Taiwan also issued a damage certificate on May 22, 2016, confirming this incident. The Consignee asserted that the 7 cartons of damaged cargo would be sold to their clients at a discount as downgraded products; therefore, they lodged a claim for 30% of the insured amount. 【重點詞彙/句型】
