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 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 of 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!
If you cross the Atlantic Ocean going east, you set your clock______.
选项
A、ahead one hour in each new time zone
B、head by twenty-three hours
C、back one full day for each time zone
D、ahead one hour for the whole trip
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据第二段的介绍,自西向东横渡大西洋时,因每增加一个时区,就早一个小时。即“…traveling east,you set it ahead.”,所以答案为A。
