Homework for AS Economic students

Look at this guide to writing blogs.... (look how the blog has been redesigned but still without many blog features!)


Now look at the blog post below. This is what you must do:

a. Copy the post into your blog and correct all the English!

b. Expand on various points and see how the post can be developed to allow more learning.

c. Use pictures, graphs, videos to brighten up the post.


Here is the original:

Let's talk about the benefits and the cost of use the biggest ship to transport!
benefits:
I think there will be less pollution for unit carried, also massive the capacity, because they can transport a lot containers. Also it will reduce the price to consumer, because the cost of transport will decrease by the big ship. low labour cost as well, because there are only 13 crews which this case study mentioned. Also low fuel cost per container carried.
costs:
Build a biggest ship must cost a lot, also if a ship is very big, the speed will be reduce because when they want to pass some canal, for example Suez canal, they will use a lot of time. Also ore railway line needed. If they want to save money, the capacity of this ship must be full.
Then, I would like talk about if UK trade with China.
If UK trade with China, they can spend less money to import, also when they transport some products from China to UK, they can creates jobs for transport. Also it leading to lower cost push inflation, because the products from China is cheap which reduce the price of goods. However, trade with China might reduce the manufacture job in UK.
