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 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.
The time difference between two neighboring zones is______.
选项
A、one day
B、twenty-five hours
C、one hour
D、twenty-three hours
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。根据第一段第一句可知,地球上分为24个时区,每小时为一个时区,所以两个相邻时区的时差是一个小时。故选C。
