Reading comprehension -TOEFL- Lesson 34 (Đọc hiểu -TOEFL- Bài 34) Đọc đoạn văn sau và trả lời các câu hỏi: Which is the world's highest, driest, coldest and windiest continent? Which is the only place on earth not yet ruined, still untouched by the destructive hand of man? Australasia? Or "the ice", as Antarctica is referred to by its old friends?
