A. The Great Wall was begun more than two thousand years ago. It was built to keep out invaders. It extends about six thousand seven hundred kilometers across northern China. Today, the Chinese government is working to repair parts of the wall and protect as much of it as possible. The Great Wall of China is one of the largest building projects ever attempted. It is also the only object built by people that can be seen from space.
B. The Coliseum in Rome, Italy was built almost two thousand years ago. The ancient Roman sports center could hold fifty thousand people who gathered there to watch public events. Experts say it is one of the finest examples of Roman design and engineering.
C. The city of Machu Picchu in Peru includes some of the best stone works ever built. The ancient Inca people built Machu Picchu high in the Andes Mountains, northwest of the city of Cuzco. Machu Picchu is about thirteen square kilometers. Historians say it might have been one of the last places of safety for the Incas who were fleeing invaders from Spain.
D. India is famous for its temples and buildings. The most famous is the Taj Mahal, considered one of the most beautiful buildings ever built. The fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, ordered it built in Agra in sixteen thirty-one. He built it as a burial place in memory of his wife. The Taj Mahal has tiny colorful stones inlaid in white marble. The structure seems to change color during different times of the day and night.
E. Abu Simbel was built more than three thousand years ago. It is about 280 kilometers south of Aswan on the western bank of the Nile River. It took an army of workmen and artists more than thirty years to cut the huge temple into the face of a rock mountain. In front of the main temple are four huge statues of Ramses the Second. Each statue is about twenty meters high.
F. Stonehenge also belongs on a list of ancient wonders. It is a circle of huge stones in southeastern England. Experts believe work began on Stonehenge about five thousand years ago. We know very little about Stonehenge. We do not even know how these huge stones were moved to the area. Much has been written about Stonehenge, but experts say they still are not sure what it was used for.

Global warming can be absolute depressing. Turns out, it is.
Nature Tourism Doesn't always Help
Ecotourists who want to help protect the environment with their travel
dollars may be best off backpacking.
Greenhouse Gases May Endanger Human Health
The EPA is warning that greenhouse gases emission(排放)is a threat to
public health and welfare.
Newest weapon Against Climate Change: Rocks
A strong contender in the fight against global warming may be right
under our feet.
Climate Changing Faster Than Expected
As climate change exceeds the worst predictions, scientists emphasize
the urgency of reducing emissions.
Airline Passengers May Face Radiation Risk

下面是這些文章的主要內(nèi)容。請把相關(guān)的內(nèi)容與它們的標題匹配起來。
1. By now with so many persuasive evidences, global warming is developing or exceeding
experts' worst expectations, and could bring drastic change to our planet, including a 19-foot
sea level rise and the extinction of many species, according to a new report released today.
So scientists sound the alarm.
2. Besides adventure and relaxation, there is some comfort in thinking that your tourist dollars
help protect the natural beauty you go to visit. But it doesn't always work that way. A new
study in Uganda(烏干達)found that people who spent more money to se gorillas in Bwindi
Impenetrable National Park didn't necessarily help the local community more.
3. Rocks with a powerful thirst for carbon dioxide could suck enough of the greenhouse gas
from the atmosphere to help counteract global warming, according to a recent study. Formed
under heat and pressure deep in the Earth, the rocks have unusual chemical properties when
moving up to the surface, which include absorbing carbon dioxide.
4. A rise in natural disasters caused by the global warming will lead to more cases of stress
disorder and depression. According to various evidences, climate change will bring new
cases of stress, anxiety and depression. People who already have serious psychological problems will
probably suffer most in the natural disasters and extreme weather events.
5. The Environmental Protection Agency has concluded greenhouse gases are endangering
people's health and must be regulated, indicating that the Obama administration is prepared
to contain global warming if necessary and that the United States is aggressively taking
actions to fight against global warming and protect its people's health..
