Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The public sector refers to government delivery of goods and services such as Social Security in the United States, while the private sector refers to all economic activity undertaken outside the purview of the state, by individuals or private corporations. The overall size of the public sector is measured as the amount of economic activity the state undertakes through taxing and spending on government programs relative to the total amount of activity in an economy.

It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
