Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

I would expect my students to address the following:
 A clear statement of the HO Theorem along the lines that nations differ in their endowments of factors of production, products differ in how intensively they use various factors of production, so a nation that has a relative abundance in a specific factor of production compared to its trading partner will have a comparative advantage in products that use that factor of production more intensively.
 The U.S. would have an abundance of capital and skilled labor and China unskilled labor. The text offers data that supports this.
