__________ has the world fastest train in Asia.

  1. China

  2. India

  3. Japan

  4. None of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation
 China has the worlds fastest train in Asia.
Shanghai Maglev: 267 mph
The world’s fastest train isn’t the newest, the shiniest, or even the one with the most expensive tickets. Charging $8 per person, per ride, the Maglev runs the nearly 19 miles from Shanghai’s Pudong International Airport to the Longyang metro station on the outskirts of Shanghai. That’s right—the train, which takes just over 7 minutes to complete the journey using magnetic levitation (maglev) technology, doesn’t go to the city center. As such, the bulk of the passengers since its 2004 debut have been travelers on their way to and from the airport, cameras out and ready to snap a photo of the speed indicators when the train hits 431 km/hr (267 mph).

  3. Satellite communication

  4. Telegram communication
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The most preferred mode of communication in Asia is Mobile communication.

 Asian mobile communication research since the mid-1990s. First, it identifies key research institutes and funding agencies, not only in Asia but also worldwide public (e.g., the Canadian IDRC) and private (e.g., Microsoft) organizations. It then summarizes the areas of research at micro, meso, and macro levels, including their main topics, methods, and findings, and debates that result from the interaction (and lack of it) among diverse scholarly traditions such as survey, policy analysis, ethnography, action research, and comparative studies. Young as it is, mobile communication research is now a most eclectic area of inquiry, reflecting both the diversity of Asian societies and the growing heterogeneity of communication research itself.
