（单词翻译:单击）

A new roll-on/roll-off ship delivered last month to China's southernmost city of Sansha has set off on its maiden1 voyage.

The ship, the Sansha Number One, will increase cargo2 and passenger transportation capacity between the island groups in the South China Sea, and the port city of Wenchang on the main island of Hainan Province.  

On board the first cruise are some four hundred government workers, soldiers and resident representatives of the Sansha islands. Compared to the existing transport vessel3, the Qiongsha Number 3, the new ship cuts travel time by a third, to ten hours. The Sansha Number One is also equipped with a helicopter landing platform, which makes it convenient for maritime4 rescue and island patrolling.
