Of аll оf the industries thаt develоped during the periоd between 1865 аnd 1900, perhaps the one that most affected people's lives was the railroad. Perhaps surprisingly, one of its important influences was on time --standard time. Originally, each railroad followed its own time. Thus, if there were five different railroad lines using the same station, there would be five different clocks on the wall. no two of them alike. In addition, there were often different times within a single state. Illinois, for example, had twenty-seven, while Wisconsin had thirty-eight. If you were traveling from coast to coast, you had to change your watch twenty times along the way if you wanted to keep up with the local time. The confusion was tremendous. In 1870, Professor C.F. Dowd started a campaign for uniform time. He suggested that the earth's surface be divided into twenty-four time belts, beginning at Greenwich, England (which is 0 degrees’ longitude). Each zone would represent one hour. The continental United States would have four such zones, which Dowd named the Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific zones. Thus when it was noon in New York City, it would be eleven o'clock in Chicago, ten in Denver, and nine in San Francisco. In 1872, the railroads decided to adapt Dowd's suggestion. But it took until 1883 before the plan went into effect. However, no sooner did the railroads adapt standard time zones then the rest of the nation did the same. As one newspaper declared, "the sun is no longer boss of the job. People, 55 million of them, must eat, sleep, and work, as well as travel by railroad time." In 1918, congress passed an act making the time zones official. In 1966, congress passed another act that set up eight time zones, thus including Alaska, Hawaii, and all U.S. possessions. Later, Congress also adopted daylight saving time in summer as a fuel-saving measure. The only holdouts are Arizona, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and part of Indiana. 15. The tone of the third paragraph is best described as enthusiastic disapproving critical objective 16. In paragraph one, the author of this passage reveals a bias in favor of Greenwich., England. daylight saving time. eight time zones. standard time. 17. One could conclude from the passage that Congress has the power to enforce daylight saving time. Arizona, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Indiana are conservative states. the railroads adapted standard time because they were concerned about fuel. before people traveled by train, standard time was not important. 18. From this passage the reader can conclude that all citizens of Arizona adopted daylight saving time. residents of Indiana disagreed about adopting daylight saving time. Congress was confused by the time zones the railroad had established. railroads wanted to dictate its use of time zones in all states. 19. The author's claim, " Perhaps surprisingly, one of its important influences was on time -- standard time." (paragraph 1) is supported throughout the passage by specific factual evidence. is inadequately supported by using only generalizations. 20. Which of the following statements provides the best support for the author's assertion in paragraph two, "The confusion (caused by the lack of standard time) was tremendous." If you were traveling from coast to coast, you had to change your watch twenty times along the way if you wanted to keep up with the local time. He suggested that the earth's surface be divided into twenty-four time belts. The continental United States would have four such zones. Originally, each railroad followed its own time.
