Read the following passage and write the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct

A combination of sewage, salt, air pollution, sun, sand and wind may destroy the huge statue on the outskirts of
Cairo. This statue of the Sun God has the body of a lion and the face of a human being. It is five thousand years
old, but it is too badly damaged to be completely saved.
The statue had already been dug out of the sand three times. However, the latest problems are much more
serious. First, there are no proper drains and water pipes in the neighbourhood and the underground passage
round the statue have become blocked. Too much water has been running into the stone statue for several years.
As a result, tiny pieces of salt have been left on the stone and have damaged it.
Secondly, air pollution from the increasing amount of traffic in Cairo is also destroying the ancient statue. The
air is so full of poisonous gases that it is making the stone crumble and decay even faster.
