Open the brackets using the correct form of the verb. Customs and Border Protection officers arrested a male U.S. citizen early Saturday after finding nearly 73 pounds of methamphetamine in his vehicle during a secondary inspection at Arizona’s Port of San Luis. Officers located multiple bricks of meth, exceeding $218,000 in value, after a CBP narcotics-detection canine alerted to the trunk of a Toyota Camry driven by a 46-year-old man residing in San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora, Mexico. CBP seized the vehicle and drugs. The man was turned over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations. Federal law allows officers to charge individuals by complaint. An individual is presumed innocent unless and until competent evidence is presented to a jury that establishes guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. CBP's Office of Field Operations is the primary organization within Homeland Security tasked with an anti-terrorism mission at our nation’s ports. CBP officers screen all people, vehicles and goods entering the United States while facilitating the flow of legitimate trade and travel. Task 5. Translate the text from English into Russian CBP officers seize stainless steel sinks at Portal Port of EntryU.S. CBP Office of Field Operations officers working at the Portal Port of Entry recently targeted a rail container destined to arrive in Portal. CBP officers inspected two rail containers and discovered merchandise in violation of intellectual property rights (IPR) regulations. The merchandise consisted of 1,256 stainless steel sinks. Examination of the sinks revealed a trademark infringement. As a result, CBP seized those items. The counterfeit merchandise has an aggregate manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $944,512. “Every day CBP plays an important role in stopping counterfeit merchandise from entering the United States. These counterfeit products infringe on the rightful trademark holders,” Portal Port Director Brent Beeter said. With the growth of foreign trade, unscrupulous companies have profited billions of dollars from the sale of counterfeit and pirated goods. To combat the illicit trade of merchandise violating laws relating to IPR, trademark and copyright holders may register with CBP through an online system. Such registration assists CBP officers and import specialists in identifying merchandise that violate U.S. law. CBP’s IPR enforcement strategy is multi-layered and includes seizing illegal merchandise at our borders, pushing the border “outward” through audits of suspect importers, cooperating with our international trading partners, and collaborating with industry and governmental agencies to enhance these efforts. https://www.cbp.gov Сотрудники Управления полевых операций США, работающие въезде в страну, недавно обратили внимание на железнодорожный контейнер, предназначенный для прибытия. Сотрудники СВП проверили два железнодорожных контейнера и обнаружили товар, нарушающий права интеллектуальной собственности (ПИС). Товар состоял из 1256 раковин из нержавеющей стали. Рассмотрение раковины выявило нарушение товарного знака. В результате CBP изъяла эти предметы. Поддельный товар имеет розничную цену производителя в размере 944 512 долларов США. «Каждый день CBP играет важную роль в прекращении контрафактной торговли от въезда в Соединенные Штаты. Эти контрафактные продукты ущемляют законных владельцев товарных знаков, - сказал директор портального порта Брент Беетер. С ростом внешней торговли недобросовестные компании получали миллиарды долларов от продажи контрафактных и пиратских товаров. Для борьбы с незаконной торговлей товарами, нарушающими законы, касающиеся прав интеллектуальной собственности, владельцы товарных знаков и авторских прав могут зарегистрироваться в CBP через онлайн-систему. Такая регистрация помогает сотрудникам СВП и специалистам по импорту в выявлении товаров, нарушающих закон США. Стратегия защиты прав интеллектуальной собственности в CBP является многоуровневой и включает в себя захват незаконных товаров на наших границах, продвижение границы «наружу» посредством аудитов подозрительных импортеров, сотрудничество с нашими международными торговыми партнерами и сотрудничество с промышленными и правительственными учреждениями в целях активизации этих усилий Task 6. Translate the sentences from Russian into English using your active vocabulary. ВТамО считает технологии управления рисками средством ускорить процедуру растаможивания товаров. WCO considers risk management technologies a means to speed up the procedure for clearing goods. Процедура таможенного контроля призвана гарантировать, что перемещение морских и воздушных судов, наземного транспорта и граждан за границу государств проходит в рамках законов, правил и процедур, указанных в Таможенном Кодексе. The customs control procedure is designed to ensure that the movement of ships and aircraft, land transport and citizens abroad of the states takes place within the framework of the laws, rules and procedures specified in the Customs Code Ускорить процесс прохождения таможни можно путем выборочного досмотра пассажиров. To speed up the process of passing through customs is possible by selective inspection of passengers. Технологии управления рисками позволяют таможенникам сконцентрировать силы и ресурсы на меньшем количестве партий товаров. Risk management technologies allow customs officers to concentrate forces and resources on fewer quantities of goods. Это учреждение отвечает за сбор прямых налогов, включая подоходный налог, корпоративный налог, налог на капитал, и косвенных налогов (включая НДС), акцизные сборы и пр. This institution is responsible for collecting direct taxes, including income tax, corporate tax, capital tax, and indirect taxes (including VAT), excise taxes, etc. Таможенная служба Её величества ставит перед собой две всеобъемлющие задачи: улучшить показатели сборов налогов, с одной стороны, и улучшить экономическую ситуацию в стране и мнение обывателей о Таможенной службе Её Величества- с другой. The Customs Service of Her Majesty sets two comprehensive tasks: to improve the rates of tax collection, on the one hand, and to improve the economic situation in the country and the opinion of ordinary people about the Customs Service of Her Majesty, on the other. В 2008 году австралийская таможенная служба не просто поменяла свое название- список ее полномочий существенно расширился. In 2008, the Australian Customs Service did not just change its name; its list of powers expanded significantly Среди прочих, одна из задач ведомства – гарантировать безопасность и целостность границ государства. Among others, one of the tasks of the department is to guarantee the security and integrity of state borders. Согласно новым правилам, больше не нужно получать отдельный сертификат на запчасти. According to the new rules, there is no need to receive a separate certificate for parts. Это соглашение, безусловно, облегчает процесс торговли между тремя крупнейшими экономиками СНГ, но оно не отменяет налоги и тарифы полностью. This agreement, of course, facilitates the process of trade between the three largest economies of the CIS, but it does not completely eliminate taxes and tariffs. Task 7. Give a summary of the article (no more than 10-12 sentences) according to the following plan.
Hong Kong bans ivory trade in 'historic' vote 31 January 2018 Hong Kong's lawmakers have voted overwhelmingly to ban the trade in ivory, in a move campaigners described as "a lifeline for elephants". A similar ban was brought in across mainland China earlier this year. Ivory sales will be phased out gradually in Hong Kong, stopping completely in 2021. Prior to the vote, demonstrators gathered outside Hong Kong's legislature with signs reading: "Do you really need ivory chopsticks?" "Shutting down this massive ivory market has thrown a lifeline to elephants," said Bert Wander of the global advocacy group Avaaz. How big is Hong Kong's ivory market? Ivory from animal tusks - mostly those of elephants - has been traded in Hong Kong for more than 150 years. It is considered the world's largest ivory market. WildAid Hong Kong, a conservation group, says the former British colony had a 670-tonne stockpile in 1989, when the global trade was banned. Only ivory dating from before that period is meant to be sold there, but campaigners say the legal trade is often a cover for illegal activities. In July 2017, authorities in Hong Kong said they had seized the world's biggest ever haul of ivory tusks - some 7.2 tonnes. More than 90% of those buying ivory in Hong Kong are from the Chinese mainland, which had hitherto been the world's largest importer of elephant tusks. What does a gradual ban mean? The trade in Hong Kong will cease in three stages. First, there will be a ban on hunting trophies and ivory from after 1975, when the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) took effect. Later, ivory obtained before 1975 will also be included. And finally, traders will be obliged to dispose of their stock by 2021. The penalties for ivory smuggling will also increase considerably. Under the new law, offenders could be fined HK$10m ($1.3m; £1m), double the present amount, or imprisoned for 10 years instead of the current two. http://www.bbc.com/news The title of the article is “Hong Kong bans ivory trade in 'historic' vote”. The title of the article gives a complete picture of what will be discussed further. The article is written by some unknown author and published in BBC magazine. The article focuses on very important problem of ivory selling that causes death to thousands elephants. According to the text In July 2017, authorities in Hong Kong said they had seized the world's biggest ever haul of ivory tusks - some 7.2 tonnes. More than 90% of those buying ivory in Hong Kong are from the Chinese mainland, which had hitherto been the world's largest importer of elephant tusks. So, Hong Kong's lawmakers have voted overwhelmingly to ban the trade in ivory, in a move campaigners described as "a lifeline for elephants. As a result we have a new law offenders could be fined $10m ($1.3m; £1m), double the present amount, or imprisoned for 10 years instead of the current two. In my opinion it is very impressive when citizens care about such important problems as preservation of nature. And for us it is the right way of behavior of civil society |
