VIII. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the mast impressive Seven Wonders of the
World. Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake TonIe Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia,
Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century. The ruins
of Angkor are d9cumented as same .of the mast impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of
Giza in Egypt. Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only
beginning to ponder. The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water.
One possible explanation far the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to do with the inhabitants'
irrigation system. The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial
reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River. Once filled, they
were used to irrigate the surrounding rice patties and farmland during the course of the year. Farmers
were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop. Without consistent irrigation, the
farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production.
Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the
reservoirs and canals broke down. The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces
required an enormous amount of physical labor. In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire,
Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor. In
order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently.
After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity. Soil erosion,
nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply. With less food available, the
people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city
of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle. Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have
fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure.

One of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramid of Giza was a monument of
wisdom and prophecy built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 B.C. Despite its antiquity,
certain aspects of its construction make it one of the truly great wonders of the world. The thirteenacre structure near the Nile River is a solid mass of stone blocks covered with limestone. Inside are
a number of hidden passageways and the burial chamber for the Pharaoh. It is the largest single
structure in the world. The four sides of the pyramid are aligned almost exactly on true north,

south, east, and west – an incredible engineering feat. The ancient Egyptians were sun worshipers
and great astronomers, so computations for the Great Pyramid were based on astronomical
observations.
Explorations and detailed examinations of the base of the structure reveal many intersecting lines.
Further scientific study indicates that these represent a type of timeline of events – past, present,
and future. Many of the events have been interpreted and found to coincide with known facts of the
past. Others are prophesied for future generations and are currently under investigation. Many
believe that pyramids have supernatural powers, and this one is no exception. Some researchers
even associate it with extraterrestrial beings of the ancient past. Was this superstructure made by
ordinary beings, or one built by a race far superior to any known today?
