The correct answer is A. The expansion of international trade.
Explanation
In the photographs you can see two photographs of Hong Kong, the first is from 1910 and the second from 2000. The first photograph shows the coast of Hong Kong with few buildings and boats, while the second photograph shows large buildings and boats. This difference between the two photographs denotes that there was great growth in the city. Hong Kong's growth is because it is a special administrative region that has a free market economy that has allowed this city to be at the epicenter of world trade and economy. Therefore, the correct answer is A. The expansion of international trade.
The correct matches are:
- A. Tropical - On the Equator;
- B. Dry - Near the Equator;
- C. Moderate - Mildest weather;
- D. Continental - Severe temperature changes;
The climate types differ from one place to another on our planet, and in general they are separated in zones in accordance to the latitude at which they are.
The tropical climate is the one that lies on and around the Equator, and it is warm and wet for the whole year. Little north and south of the Equator we encounter the dry climates, where the landscape is occupied by deserts, with extremely high temperatures, and very little precipitation. Further north come the moderate climate types and the continental climate types, they are similar to each other, but the temperatures in the moderate climates have less variation, while in the continental ones it is much bigger, also the moderate ones have more precipitation, and the continental ones have less precipitation. They are both in the mid-latitudes.
