1. 先见标题: 5 ^; s& e2 x0 ~" d
   Terms of Shipment in the Contracts for the International Sales of Goods& ^& V5 U/ b7 `0 Z! F' e
    我们先要知道《联合国国际销售货物合同公约》的说法:
7 y1 {- B5 m) Z  L$ |% |7 |     United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods4 v0 r: H  |. n
     所以题解应该是:销售合同中的装运条款。

   When buyer and seller discuss the terms of the contract, terms of

unloading, shipping documents, etc.
% C% e1 J2 }  s    实际上这句句子不难理解,关键是把几个外经贸术语搞懂:
6 L# o. t4 p  b) a& O( E2 T. p     2.1 terms of contract “合同条款”
8 a9 m; Q! c; C3 u' ]         terms: (合约、契约或合同的)条款

    2.2 time for shipment / time of shipment “装运的时间 / 装运时间”5 p- U" ~) h0 U& a
         port of loading “装运口岸, 装运港”
1 S7 Z: f: o8 a         port of unloading “卸货口岸, 卸货港”( N* e$ Z9 ~$ T2 c2 l' {0 R% E

         compulsory = required “必须做的, 规定的, 强制性的, 义务的”,
3 l* b4 E9 s; B% M         我们要把这个词放到文章中去才能理解透彻:# W3 `; l2 B4 v& l! v9 o

   5.1  within

" y7 e1 {2 z: U& }& ]% K7 z           within = not beyond = less than, ( D) R- O9 B( l" p5 ]
           意思是 inside the limits of time or distance:

3 F2 I9 G% e: J0 z1 |    (2)  within 与 in 的区别, 请先看下面两句句子:  ]' f/ S, d; y6 V0 ^% g, q# g
           ① The train will arrive in an hour. (在一个小时以后到达)( a: u3 I7 B# T9 O
           ② The train will arrive within an hour. (在一个小时以内到达): @* b; x& R5 _% F; D& o
   5.2  remittance 汇付,汇款,汇款额 (名词)

6. 句子:

2 Y2 S2 w0 n; b3 B+ z     seller not later than August 20,2002”.- [- ^) h' w5 ]5 t; T$ w) x+ r
   这里我们复习一下两个似曾相识的词:
- `) A6 f3 W5 O# ~. k     6.1  prevent sb. from doing sth. 或者 prevent sth.(from happening):
$ i: ?/ x0 Q" T! y           防止,预防

- e: N: s/ l, n+ d       本句: The relevant L/C must reach the seller not later than … : r* ^" S( Z* g) ?' E+ _+ J
       知道 relevant 是什么意思了吧.
2 p  I  f9 L, e7. 句子:

          按课文的实例,即卖方必须在2002年7月20日这一天(shipment on July 20,0 ~+ `: ^. l; z7 X0 |/ _2 e
          2002)将合同规定的货物装运上船.    可是,国际货运情况错综复杂,不可控% W* N- W+ b, n( n9 o1 c" I
       因素众多,要保证做到在选定的某一天将货物装船出运确实有一定的困难,
8 B& _. I# U& |+ r& s2 T          为此,信用证中有较宽松的表达(shipment about July 20,2002).
0 ^. Z( Z$ L& D$ e+ ?0 v% A         about的规定没有明确的界限, 银行有它们自己的解释: 指定装运期的前后! W" D- t* L$ I3 d( m( Q
