Read the passage and choose the best answer
In Southeast Asia, many forests have been cut down to produce timber and to clear land for farms and industries. The
destruction of forests has reduced the living space of wildlife. Much of Asia’s wildlife is also threatened by over-hunting. Many
people kill animals for food or hunt them to sell to zoos, medical researches, and pet traders. Because of habitats destruction and
over-hunting, many large Asian animals, including elephants, rhinoceroses, and tigers, have become endangered. In China, people

have cut down most of the forests for woods, which has caused serious soil erosion. The soil is deposited in rivers and streams,
which lowers the quality of the water. The Huang He, or Yellow River, is so named because the light-colored soil gives the water a
yellow color. The soil has also raised the riverbed. As the result, the Huang He often floods, causing great property damage and loss
of life along its banks.

Up to about 1915, movies were short and programs were made up of several works. Then, D. W. Griffith and others began to
make longer films that provided the same powerful emotional appeal as did melodrama and presented spectacles far beyond what
the theater could offer. Consequently, after World War I increasing numbers of spectators deserted the theater for the movies. This
trend was accelerated in the late 1920s as a result: of two new elements. In 1927 sound was added to the previously silent film, and
thus one of the theater's principal claims to superiority vanished. In 1929 a serious economic depression began. Since audiences
could go to the movies for a fraction of what it cost to see a play, theater going became a luxury that few could afford, especially as
the depression deepened.
By the end of World War II, the American theater had been reduced to about thirty theaters in New York City and a small
number of touring, companies originating there.

No other sporting event captures the world's imagination like the FIFA World Cup. Ever since the first tentative competition
in Uruguay in 1930, FIFA's flagship has constantly grown in popularity and prestige.
A group of visionary French football administrators, led in the 1920s by the innovative Jules Rimet, are credited with the
original idea of bringing the world's strongest national football teams together to compete for the title of World Champions. The
original gold trophy bore Jules Rimet's name and was contested three times in the 1930s, before the Second World War put a 12-year

stop to the competition:
When it resumed, the FIFA World Cup rapidly advanced to its undisputed status as the greatest single sporting event of the
modern world. Held since 1958 alternately in Europe and the Americas, the World Cup broke new ground with the Executive
Committee's decision in May 1996 to select Korea and Japan as co-hosts for the 2002 edition.
Today, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire global public under its spell. An accumulated audience of over 37 billion people
watched the France 98 tournament, including approximately 1.3 billion for the final alone, while over 2.7 million people flocked to
watch the 64 matches in the French stadia.
After all these years and so many changes, however, the main focus of the FIFA World Cup remains the same the glistening
golden trophy, which is the embodiment of every footballer's ambition.

Las Vegas, Nevada, is the most famous city for gambling in the United States. Some people say that Las Vegas is a

Lights'.
Each of the big hotels in Las Vegas is special. Going into one is like entering another world. One hotel is like ancient Egypt.
Another is like a tropical island. Still another is like New York City. These hotels have shows with famous entertainers. Everything
looks expensive. But the rooms cost half the price of the rooms in other places. And the restaurants have all-you-can-eat meals for
very little money. That's because the hotels make their money from the gambling casinos.

Cu Chi. is located at the threshold of Sai Gon and adjacent to the revolutionary base. Cu Chi played an important role in the
two wars of resistance against the old and new colonial powers. Cu Chi was an 'underground village' with its labyrinth of interlaced
tunnels having a combined length of more than 200km. The main tunnel is 60 – 70 cm wide and 80 - 90 cm high. Above the tunnel
is a layer of earth about 3m - 4m thick, enough to sustain the weight of 50-ton tanks or heavy artillery as well as the destruction of
bomb§ up to 100kg. Although it is ?an underground communication network, the tunnel is enlarged here and there into rooms large
enough to hold large meetings, a medical station or art performances. Those who had set foot in that tunnel network. should greatly
admire the talent, determination and endurance of the communist guerillas. The soil in Cu Chi. was as hard as stone, but with such
