EXERCISE 1: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet
to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
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 makes it one of the truly wonders of the world. The thirteen acre structure
near the Nile river is a solid mass of stone blocks covered with limestone. Inside are the number of
hidden passageways and the burial chamber of 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 worshippers 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 ancient past. Was this superstructure made by ordinary
beings, or one built by a race far superior to any known today?

B. To permit the high priests to pray at night.
C. To keep grave robbers from finding the tomb and the treasure buried with the Pharaoh.
D. To enable the Pharaoh’s family to bring food for his journey to the afterlife
Question 4: The word “feat” in the first paragraph is closet in meaning to _______.
A. accomplishment B. festivity
C. appendage
D. structure
