English

Answer: Standard time is the synchronization of clocks within a geographical region to a single time standard, rather than a local mean time standard. Generally, standard time agrees with the local mean time at some meridian that passes through the region, often near the center of the region. Historically, standard time was established during the 19th century to aid weather forecasting and train travel. Applied globally in the 20th century, the geographical regions became time zones. The standard time in each time zone has come to be defined as an offset from Universal Time. A further offset is applied for part of the year in regions with daylight saving time.

The adoption of standard time, because of the inseparable correspondence between time and longitude, solidified the concept of halving the globe into an eastern and western hemisphere, with one prime meridian replacing the various prime meridians that had previously been used.

Imagine that you saw a horse struggling to pull a heavy cart and you called an animal rights organizations to save the animal. M
mr_godi [17]
As an animal right activist I witnessed something inhumane and outright disgusting earlier. As I was walking home I saw this horse who was struggling against his bounds trying his hardest to move this heavy cart. The cart was very obviously too heavy for the horse as the horse was in obvious distress and pain. I immediately dialed the number to our towns animal rights organization and told them of the abuse I had just witnessed. I then made sure to take pictures of the incident for if I had to testify against the animal abusers. It amazes and horrifies me the extent people view Animals as nothing but tools to further their personal gain. I hope the abusers end up in jail or at least with a hefty fine and I pray the poor innocent animals will be taken to someone who will love and care for the wonderful creature.

Write a summary about the advantages and disadvantages of having a tram system in a city.
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

A tram is a vehicle that runs on tracks, such as a train or a metro. Compared to the train, the requirements that the vehicles and infrastructure must meet are lower. In many cases the rails are on the public road, so that the tram runs between the other traffic. This is especially common with the "city tram", which provides public transport within a municipality or conurbation. Trams (unlike other rail vehicles) are equipped with direction indicators and brake lights for street driving.

Thus, as a positive aspect, the tram adds a method of public transport to cities, which makes life easier for citizens, who do not necessarily have to depend on their private cars to move around the city. However, on the negative side, trams can cause traffic problems such as traffic jams or accidents, since they circulate on the street like other cars.
