PART V: READING COMPREHENSION
Read the passage and choose the best answer.
The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World was a list of remarkable constructions of classical antiquity.
Compiled by various Greek authors, these lists celebrated the most magni6icent and grand structures of their
time. These marvels of architecture and engineering were a testament to the skill and ambition of the ancient
civilizations that built them. From the Great Pyramid of Giza to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, each wonder
was considered a must-see for travelers and a source of inspiration.
Of the original seven wonders, only the Great Pyramid of Giza remains largely intact. The others were
destroyed by earthquakes, 6ires, or the passage of time. Our knowledge of them comes from the descriptions
found in ancient texts and the work of archaeologists who have excavated their ruins. For example, archaeologists
have unearthed parts of the foundation of the Lighthouse of Alexandria and have speculated about its incredible
height and design.
The legendary status of these lost landmarks continues to fascinate us. They remind us of the incredible
achievements of the past and the impermanence of even the most gigantic structures. While we can no longer see
them in their full glory, the stories and discoveries associated with them continue to be a priceless part of our
shared human heritage.
