11、都应按照下列规定承担责任和义务，并享受权利和豁免。Subject to the provisions of Article 6, under every contract of carriage of goods by sea the carrier, in relation to the loading, handling, stowage, carriage, custody, care and discharge of such goods, shall be subject to the responsibilities and liabilities, and entitled to
12、 the rights and immunities hereinafter set forth.第三条 Article 31承运人须在开航前和开航时谨慎处理：1.The carrier shall be bound before and at the beginning of the voyage to exercise due diligence to:(a)使船舶适航；(a)Make the ship seaworthy. (b) 适当地配备船员、装备船舶和供应船舶；(b)Properly man, equip and supply the ship.(c) 使货舱、冷藏舱和该船其他载货
13、处所能适宜和安全地收受、运送和保管货物。(c)Make the holds, refrigerating and cool chambers, and all other parts of the ship in which goods are carried, fit and safe for their reception, carriage and preservation.2除遵照第四条规定外，承运人应适当和谨慎地装卸、搬运、积载、运送、保管、照料和卸载所运货物。2.Subject to the provisions of Article 4, the carrier shall pr
14、operly and carefully load, handle, stow, carry, keep, care for, and discharge the goods carried.3承运人或船长或承运人的代理人在收受货物归其照管后，经托运人的请求，应向托运人签发提单，其上载明下列各项：3.After receiving the goods into his charge the carrier or the master or agent of the carrier shall, on demand of the shipper, issue to the shipper a b
15、ill of lading showing among other things:(a) 与开始装货前由托运人书面提供者相同的、为辨认货物所需的主要标志，如果这项标志是以印戳或其他方式标示在不带包装的货物上，或在其中装有货物的箱子或包装物上，该项标志通常应在航程终了时仍能保持清晰可认。(a)The leading marks necessary for identification of the goods as the same are furnished in writing by the shipper before the loading of such goods starts, p
16、rovided such marks are stamped or otherwise shown clearly upon the goods if uncovered, or on the cases or coverings in which such goods are contained, in such a manner as should ordinarily remain legible until the end of the voyage.(b) 托运人用书面提供的包数或件数，或数量，或重量。(b)Either the number of packages or piece
17、s, or the quantity, or weight, as the case may be, as furnished in writing by the shipper.(c) 货物的表面状况。(c)The apparent order and condition of the goods.但是，承运人、船长或承运人的代理人，不一定必须将任何货物的标志、号码、数量或重量表明或标示在提单上，如果他有合理根据怀疑提单不能正确代表实际收到的货物，或无适当方法进行核对的话。Provided that no carrier, master or agent of the carrier sha
18、ll be bound to state or show in the bill of lading any marks, number, quantity, or weight which he has reasonable ground for suspecting not accurately to represent the goods actually received, or which he has had no reasonable means of checking.4依照第3款(a)、(b)、(c)项所载内容的这样一张提单，应作为承运人收到该提单中所载货物的初步证据。4.
19、Such a bill of lading shall be prima facie evidence of the receipt by the carrier of the goods as therein described in accordance with paragraph 3(a), (b) and (c).5托运人应被视为已在装船时向承运人保证，由他提供的标志、件数、数量和重量均正确无误；并应赔偿给承运人由于这些项目不正确所引起或导致的一切灭失、损坏和费用。承运人的这种赔偿权利，并不减轻其根据运输合同对托运人以外的任何人所承担的责任和义务。5. The shipper sha
20、ll be deemed to have guaranteed to the carrier the accuracy at the time of shipment of the marks, number, quantity and weight, as furnished by him, and the shipper shall indemnity the carrier against all loss, damages and expenses arising or resulting from inaccuracies in such particulars. The right
21、 of the carrier to such indemnity shall in no way limit his responsibility and liability under the contract of carriage to any person other than the shipper.6在将货物移交给根据运输合同有权收货的人之前或当时，除非在卸货港将货物的灭失和损害的一般情况，已用书面通知承运人或其代理人，则这种移交应作为承运人已按照提单规定交付货物的初步证据。6. Unless notice of loss or damage and the general na
22、ture of such loss or damage be given in writing to the carrier or his agent at the port of discharge before or at the time of the removal of the goods into the custody of the person entitled to delivery thereof under the contract of carriage, or, if the loss or damage be not apparent, within three d
23、ays, such removal shall be prima facie evidence of the delivery by the carrier of the goods as described in the bill of lading.如果灭失或损坏不明显，则这种通知应于交付货物之日起的三天内提交。If the loss or damage is not apparent, the notice must be given within three days of the delivery of the goods.如果货物状况在收受时已经进行联合检验或检查，就无须再提交书面
24、通知。The notice in writing need not be given if the state of the goods has, at the time of their receipt, been the subject of joint survey or inspection.除非从货物交付之日或应交付之日起一年内提出诉讼，承运人和船舶在任何情况下都免除对灭失或损害所负的一切责任。In any event the carrier and the ship shall be discharged from all liability in respect of loss
25、or damage unless suit is brought within one year after delivery of the goods or the date when the goods should have been delivered. 遇有任何实际的或推定的灭失或损害，承运人与收货人必须为检验和清点货物相互给予一切合理便利。In the case of any actual or apprehended loss or damage the carrier and the receiver shall give all reasonable facilities t
26、o each other for inspecting and tallying the goods.7货物装船后，如果托运人要求，签发“已装船”提单，承运人、船长或承运人的代理人签发给托运人的提单，应为“已装船”提单，如果托运人事先已取得这种货物的物权单据，应交还这种单据，换取“已装船”提单。但是，也可以根据承运人的决定，在装货港由承运人、船长或其代理人在上述物权单据上注明装货船名和装船日期。经过这样注明的上述单据，如果载有第三条第3款所指项目，即应成为本条所指的“已装船”提单。7.After the goods are loaded the bill of lading to be iss
27、ued by the carrier, master, or agent of the carrier, to the shipper shall, if the shipper so demands, be a shipped bill of lading, provided that if the shipper shall have previously taken up any document of title to such goods, he shall surrender the same as against the issue of the shipped bill of
28、lading, but at the option of the carrier such document of title may be noted at the port of shipment by the carrier, master, or agent with the name or names of the ship or ships upon which the goods have been shipped and the date or dates of shipment, and when so noted, if it shows the particulars m
29、entioned in paragraph 3 of Article 3, shall for the purpose of this Article be deemed to constitute a shipped bill of lading.8运输合同中的任何条款、约定或协议，凡是解除承运人或船舶对由于疏忽、过失或未履行本条规定的责任和义务，因而引起货物或关于货物的灭失或损害的责任的，或以下同于本公约的规定减轻这种责任的，则一律无效。有利于承运人的保险利益或类似的条款，应视为属于免除承运人责任的条款。8.Any clause, covenant, or agreement in a c
30、ontract of carriage relieving the carrier or the ship from liability for loss or damage to, or in connexion with, goods arising from negligence, fault, or failure in the duties and obligations provided in this Article or lessening such liability otherwise than as provided in this Convention, shall b
31、e null and void and of no effect. A benefit of insurance in favour of the carrier or similar clause shall be deemed to be a clause relieving the carrier from liability.第四条 Article 41不论承运人或船舶，对于因不适航所引起的灭失或损坏，都不负责，除非造成的原因是由于承运人未按第三条第1款的规定，克尽职责；使船舶适航；保证适当地配备船员、装备和供应该船，以及使货舱、冷藏舱和该船的其它装货处所能适宜并安全地收受、运送和保管
32、货物。凡由于船舶不适航所引起的灭失和损害，对于已克尽职责的举证责任，应由根据本条规定要求免责的承运人或其他人承担。1.Neither the carrier nor the ship shall be liable for loss or damage arising or resulting from unseaworthiness unless caused by want of due diligence on the part of the carrier to make the ship seaworthy and to secure that the ship is properl

34、sulted from unseaworthiness the burden of proving the exercise of due diligence shall be on the carrier or other person claiming exemption under this Article.2不论承运人或船舶，对由于下列原因引起或造成的灭失或损坏，都不负责：2.Neither the carrier nor the ship shall be responsible for loss or damage arising or resulting from:(a)船长、船

40、ect of the agents or servants of the carrier, but the burden of proof shall be on the person claiming the benefit of this exception to show that neither the actual fault or privity of the carrier nor the fault or neglect of the agents or servants of the carrier contributed to the loss or damage.3.对于
41、任何非因托运人、托运人的代理人或其雇佣人员的行为、过失或疏忽所引起的使承运人或船舶遭受的灭失或损坏，托运人不负责任。3.The shipper shall not be responsible for loss or damage sustained by the carrier or the ship arising or resulting from any cause without the act, fault or neglect of the shipper, his agents or his servants.4.为救助或企图救助海上人命或财产而发生的绕航，或任何合理绕航，都不

44、per package or unit, or the equivalent of that sum in other currency unless the nature and value of such goods have been declared by the shipper before shipment and inserted in the bill of lading.该项声明如经载入提单，即作为初步证据，但它对承运人并不具有约束力或最终效力。This declaration if embodied in the bill of lading shall be prima
45、facie evidence, but shall not be binding or conclusive on the carrier.经承运人、船长或承运人的代理人与托运人双方协议，可规定不同于本款规定的另一最高限额，但该最高限额不得低于上述数额。By agreement between the carrier, master or agent of the carrier and the shipper another maximum amount than that mentioned in this paragraph may be fixed, provided that suc
