READING: Read the passage and choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D to each of the questions
Without someone protecting the world's interesting and ancient sites, they could easily be swept away by
the changing world.
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.
UNESCO is an agency of the United Nations. The United Nations is a partnership between countries from
all over the world. They are joined to help promote world peace, enforce human rights, and help countries
develop. UNESCO is a part of the United Nations that is concerned with science and culture.
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 industrialization changing
the world rapidly, there were many sites that needed to be saved. Eventually, UNESCO formed the World
Heritage Organization to protect important natural and historic sites wherever it was necessary.
By now, the World Heritage Organization has protected hundreds of sites ranging from beautiful natural islands
to buildings in large cities to ancient ruins. If you're able to visit any of the many protected sites, you'll agree it
was worth it.
