p>9* Dangerous wreck/' obstruction located in position is marked by - опасное затонувшее судно в точке, ограждено буем1. Read the text and try to retell itand Beaconsand beacons are used for marking dangers at sea, for marking approaches to entrances, for defining channels, fairways and their positions etc.and beacons may be of various shapes and colours. The shape is more important than colour, as certain shapes are used for particular purposes. Buoys may be lit and they may have topmarks.are pillar shaped buoys, can buoys, spar buoys, spindle buoys, nun buoys, spherical buoys etc.colour may be green, red, black, yeDow etc.night many buoys exhibit lights: green, red, white, yellow etc.may be checkered or painted in horizontal bands or vertical stripes.may be surmounted by top marks, such as a can, a cone, a sphere, cones points upward, cones points downward, cones base to base, cones point to point, a ball, a staff, a cross, downturned brooms, upturned brooms etc. Topmarks may be painted in green, red, black and other colours.2.

4. Scan the textsystems and types of buoysmain buoyage systems that are employed world-wide are the Lateral buoyage system and the Cardinal buoyage system. Buoys in the Lateral system are used to indicate the port and starboard sides of the fairways.Lateral system is subdivided into two separate systems: the IALA-A system and IALA-B system (IALA stands for International Association of Aids to Lighthouse Authorities).countries in the world employ the A-system; the starboard side of the fairway is indicated by the green-coloured conical shape, and the port side is indicated by the red-coloured can-shape.and some oriental countries employ the B-system: starboard is indicated by a red-coloured cone, and the port is indicated by a green-coloured can.in the Cardinal system are used to indicate how to pass a danger (e.g. a wreck) in a certain quadrant or area.position of the danger is indicated by North-, South-, East-, and West-Cardinal buoys. They will give the navigator information regarding the vessel's position in reference to the position of the danger. Cardinal buoys are pillar- or spar-shaped.buoys indicate special features in the fairway that can be looked up in the Pilot book. They may have any shape and are fitted with a yellow lightmarks mark safe water of sufficient depth and indicate that one approaches the coast. They are pillar-, spar-, or spherical-shaped and are fitted with a white light.danger marks are pillar- or spar- shaped and are fitted with a white light.of buoys

9. Scan the text(Daymarks)are not only distinguished by their shapes and colours, but also by their topmarks (daymarks). The shapes of these topmarks may be a can, a cone, a sphere or a cross.pillar- or spar- buoys are fitted with red or green can-shaped or conical topmarks. When the buoys are can- or conical-shaped themselves they are not fitted with any topmarks.buoys are fitted with two black cones.is indicated by two cones points up;is indicated by two cones points down;is indicated by two cones point to point;is indicated by two cones base to base.special buoy, whose meaning is indicated in the pilot book, carries a yellow cross.safe water buoy (landfall buoy) is fitted with a single red sphere.isolated danger buoy carries two black spheres.10.
