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.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
