READING
A. Read the passage and choose the best answer.
There are certain inventions and creations that people are aware of every day. There are,
however, very few creations that we use our whole lives without ever thinking about or even
seeing. But that is exactly what the London sewers are. Their creator, Joseph Bazalgette, may
be remembered as more of an engineer than an inventor, but what he developed in London -
the largest and most forward-thinking sewage system the world had ever seen - changed life in
the city completely.
There was a sewage system in place beforehand, but all it did was transfer waste straight
into the Thames. It was basically one massive open sewer pipe. By all accounts it created a
truly awful smell, reaching its peak during the Great Stink of 1858. Even more worryingly, it
caused serious health problems, such as cholera, because it contaminated the city's drinking
supply. Something had to be done, and Bazalgette was the man to do it.
His solution was phenomenal: a new waste system that would divert the sewage eastwards
away from the river and pump it out to sea. By 1865 most of the system was working, the
main intercepting sewers used 318 million bricks and measured over 80 miles in length. To do
all that work above ground would have been one thing, but to create it underground was
something else altogether. The intricate maze of sewer pipes more than 100 years old was just
unbelievable. And the most amazing thing is that it still functions today.
The reason is that when Bazalgette designed the tunnels, he estimated how much the
population of London would increase in the next 100 years and worked out how large the
tunnels would need to be to meet the needs of the future and keep the system flowing, which
is why the sewers are still in working order today, and why in our eyes it should be seen as a
huge inventing achievement.
