Barges move ever so slowly - about 9 kilometers [6 miles] an hour. There’s not much flexibility in what they do: the rivers are where they are, and strings of 60-meter [195-foot]-long barges get to their destination in their own sweet time.
驳船的航行速度很慢，每小时大约行进9千米（6英里）。在业务上面，驳船的运行方式很少有机动变化，（基本千篇一律）：它们都航行在既定的河流流域，一艘艘身长60米（195英尺）的驳船由缆绳相连，悠悠然驶向它们的目的地。

There’s a lot of waiting and patience involved in the barge business, in other words.
换句话说，船舶业中的两大特性就是“等待”和“耐心”。
