In 1959, the government of Egypt was working on a plan to build a dam on the River Nile. It was called the Aswan Dam, and it was intended to generate electricity and allow the river water to be used for agriculture. There was one big problem with the plan, though. The dam would flood a nearby valley that contained ancient Egyptian treasures, including two enormous stone temples. It can be difficult for governments to choose culture and history over economics. However, if countries always made decisions like this, the majority of the world's ancient sites would end up being destroyed. Luckily, UNESCO stepped in. They formed a committee that tried to convince Egypt to protect its ancient treasures. With support from many countries, they were finally successful. The huge temples were carefully removed from their original site and moved to a safe location so that the dam could be built. After their success in saving the temples in Egypt, UNESCO went on to save more sites around the world. They protected lagoons in Venice, ruins in Pakistan, and temples in Indonesia. With industrialisation changing the world rapidly, there were many sites that needed to be saved. Eventually, UNESCO formed the World Heritage Organisation to protect important natural and historic sites wherever it was necessary. By now, the World Heritage Organisation has protected hundreds of sites ranging from beautiful natural islands to buildings in large cities and ancient ruins. If you're able to visit any of the many protected sites, you'll agree it was worth it. 38. What is the best title for the passage? A. UNESCO C. UNESCO to develop B. UNESCO to succeed D.

Why did UNESCO get involved in Egypt? A. Egypt was planning to build a dam that would harm ancient temples. B. Egypt was planning to build a valley for agriculture and electricity. C. Egypt was planning to create a dam right on top of an ancient temple. D. When the dam flooded a valley, several treasures were discovered. 42. Why is the World Heritage Organisation more important now than it would have been 200 years ago? A. Countries didn't cooperate in the past. B. Cities were smaller back then. C.

Its capital city is called Port Vila, which has a population of more or less 30,000. The total population in Vanuatu is some 200,000. Many of the islands of Vanuatu have been inhabited for thousands of years, the oldest archaeological evidence found dating to 2000 BC. Its economy is based primarily on agriculture, which provides a living for 65% of the population. Fishing, offshore financial services, and tourism are the other main supporters of the economy. About 50,000 tourists visit the island group annually. There are three official languages: English, French and Bislama. In addition, over one hundred local languages are spoken on the islands. Most of the islands are mountainous and of volcanic origin, and have a tropical or sub-tropical climate. The highest point in Vanuatu is Mount Tabwemasana, at 1879 m. There are several active volcanoes in Vanuatu, including Lopevi as well as several underwater ones. The future for Vanuatu is very uncertain. Global warming and the threat of rising sea levels put this group of islands in imminent danger. Much of the Vanuatuland mass lies just a few feet above the waves. If sea levels do continue to rise at current rates, the inhabitants of Vanuatu may be seeking refuge in New Zealand or Australia before the end of the century. VII. READING

One of the main reasons to exercise is to control body weight. Obesity occurs when a person takes in more calories than they use. This can happen by overeating, eating fatty foods, and not being physically active. It has been proven that slower paced exercises, those that last longer, will help a person achieve faster weight loss than the high paced exercises. Another reason to exercise is it boosts energy, and improves moods. Several studies have shown that daily exercise helps improve moods of those suffering from mild to moderate depression. Exercises can also help a person gain confidence, and allow them to get more social interaction. In summary, physical exercise is beneficial to young people, so they should do it regularly.
