Which of the following is the difference in time between zones?
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】 [听力原文] <14>-<16> Strange things happen to time
when you travel, because the earth is divided into twenty-four time zones, one
hour apart. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and
weeks with more or fewer than seven days. If you make a five-day
trip across the Atlantic Ocean, your ship enters a different time zone every
day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set
your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has
either twenty-five or twenty-three hours. If you travel by ship
across the Pacific, you cross the international date line. By agreement, this is
the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your
calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes
yesterday; traveling west, it is tomorrow !
