Task I. Translate into English/Consecutive translation in the class.

Судовой брокер должен быть профессионалом самого высокого класса, обладающим большими знаниями в области организации перевозок и многочисленными связями в своем бизнесе. Он должен знать грузы, суда, основных судовладельцев и фрахтователей; он должен знать, что происходит в каждый данный момент в его основном месте деятельности, в транспортных и торговых организациях, с которыми он обычно имеет дело, что происходит в стране и в мире. Он должен быть и коммерсантом, и юристом, и специалистом в области маркетинга, и, в первую очередь, отличным организатором. Он должен быстро ориентироваться в тенденциях на судоходном рынке. Помимо высокой профессиональной квалификации он должен быть человеком общительным, доброжелательным и честным, ибо честность - лучшая деловая политика, он должен уметь держать данное принципалам слово: "Our word is our Bond" - гласит девиз Балтийской Биржи в Лондоне. Если судовой брокер не обладает всеми этими качествами, то он очень скоро останется не у дел. ибо информация в современном бизнесе распространяется очень быстро. Кроме того, судовой брокер должен обладать незаурядным здоровьем, терпением и оптимизмом, поскольку ему зачастую приходится работать на протяжении многих часов и дней без отдыха.
