小编今天给大家准备了PTE的模拟试题,希望大家可以有所收获,对PTE的了解更有收获哦!
A、The date line is necessary to
avoid a confusion that would otherwise result.
B、The same problem would arise if
two travelers journeyed in opposite directions to a point on the opposite side
of the earth, 180° of longitude distant.
C、International Date Line, imaginary
line on the earth's surface, generally following the180° meridian of longitude,
where, by international agreement, travelers change dates.
D、For example, if an airplane were
to travel westward with the sun, 24 hr would elapse as it circled the globe, but
it would still be the same day for those in the airplane while it would be one
day later for those on the ground below them.
E、The apparent paradox is resolved
by requiring that the traveler crossing the date line change his date, thus
bringing the travelers into agreement when they meet.

and Indian engineers
Consider the current situation: like
their counterparts in the United States, engineers andtechnicians in India have
the capacity to provide both computer programming andinnovative new
technologies. Indian programmers and high-tech engineers earn onequarter of what
their counterparts earn in the United States, Consequently, India is able todo
both jobs at a lower dollar cost than the United States: India has absolute
advantage inboth. In other words, it can produce a unit of programming for fewer
dollars than theUnites States, and it can also produce a unit of technology
innovation for fewer dollars.Does that mean that the United States will lose not
only programming jobs but innovativetechnology job, too? Does that mean that our
standard of living will fall if the United Statesand India engage in the
international trade?
David Ricardo would have answered no
to both questions- as we do today. While Indiamat have an absolute advantage in
both activities, that fact is irrelevant in determiningwhat India or the United
States will produce. India has a comparative advantage in doing programming in
part because of such activity requires little physical capital. The flip side is
that the United States has a comparative advantage in technology innovation
partly because it is relatively easy to obtain capital in this country to
undertake such long-runprojects. The result is that Indian programmers will do
more and more of what U.S.programmers have been doing in the past. In contrast,
American firms will shift to moreand more innovation. The United States will
specialize in technology innovation; India willspecialize in programming. The
business managers in each country will opt to specialize inactivities in which
they have a comparative advantage. As in the past, The U.S. economywill continue
to concentrate on what are called the “best” activities.
