For most of the second half of the twentieth century, which East Asian country was most closed to ideas and influences from the West?
1. China
2. South Korea
3. Japan

I feel strongly about Hong Kong here. It shows.

Macao was the last territory to be returned to China by a European colonial power. Which European colonial power returned it?
1. United Kingdom
2. Spain
3. Portugal
4. Germany
5. France

Macao was formerly run by a Portuguese colony. This should be correct as well.

That makes sense. I'll run through that one in the book to be extra safe.

Which Chinese region has experienced the greatest recent economic expansion?
1. the region surrounding the Gobi Desert
2. the provinces along the coast
3. Inner Mongolia
4. the western provinces
5. the central provinces

This one, I'm going to need your help on Funion. I know Taiwan and South Korea both jumped from underdeveloped into developed economies. Would 2 be correct here?

What means of transportation is most common in Tokyo?
1. Driving
2. Public Transit
3. Segway, walking, driving, and public transit are all common
4. Public transit or walking
5. Walking

I haven't got a clue in this one. I'm thinking 3?

1) Why did China build the Three Gorges Dam?
1. to create a resort area
2. to control river flooding
3. to produce electricity
4. to control river flooding and create a resort area
5. to control river flooding and produce electricity

They loved that it produced tons of electricity, but they loved it even more because of the water-control benefits. The planners hope that the Three Gorges Dam will store enough water to help protect 15 million people and over 3 million acres. I'm going with #5.

First question.. Public Transit.. most people take the Railway... on it's public transit and walking!

The second question..
It's electricity but they also use it as a mass water storage and purification area.
