Well ardour is not really a tool for this kind of things. You should use
audacity instead.

But:

1) Import audio to one stereo track
2) Move mouse over the segment lower coloured border.
3) Drag it do right (which trims the segment)
4) For fadeout you will notice a small square tick in upper left corner 
of segment. Move it in desired position, and you will get the fadein.
5) Export audio.
