Essay

Use the passage below to answer all parts of the question that follows.
"[In Japan] the inspiration and the capital for railway building came from within the country. The first line, running 29 kilometers from Tokyo to Yokohama, was a government project, inaugurated in the presence of the emperor. In the early years of railway building, the Japanese hired a number of Europeans, including a British chief engineer. The number of foreign technicians rose from 19 in 1970 to 113 in 1874, then dropped to 43 in 1879 and to 15 in 1885; after that the Japanese dispensed with foreign advisers. They had viewed the foreigners less as railroad builders than as teachers. As early as 1877, only seven years after the railway era began, the line from Kyoto to Otsu was built without any foreign help.
From the beginning, the railways were designed not only to transport goods and people and to benefit investors, but also to contribute to the further development of Japanese industry."
