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 slip 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 International Date Line is the name for______.
选项
A、the beginning of any new time zone
B、any point where time changes by one hour
C、the point where a new day starts
D、any time zone in the Pacific Ocean
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。根据第三段第二句话“By agreement,this is the point where a new day begins.”可知,这条线(国际日期变更线)是地球上新的一天的开始。故 选C。
