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?

What has research of the base revealed?

A. There are cracks in the foundation

B. Tomb robbers have stolen the Pharaoh’s body

C. A superior race of people built in

D. The lines represent important events

Dịch bài đọc:

Một trong bảy kỳ quan của thế giới cổ đại, Kim tự tháp Giza là tượng đài trí tuệ và tiên tri được xây dựng như một ngôi mộ cho Pharaoh Cheops vào năm 2720 trước Công nguyên. Mặc dù ở thời cổ đại, một số khía cạnh về xây dựng khiến nó một trong những kỳ quan thật sự của thế giới. Cấu trúc mười ba mẫu gần sông Nile là một khối đá phủ đầy đá vôi. Bên trong là nhiều lối đi ẩn và buồng chôn cất của Pharaoh. Đây là cấu trúc đơn lẻ lớn nhất trên thế giới. Bốn cạnh của kim tự tháp được sắp xếp gần như chính xác về phía bắc, nam, đông và tây - một kỹ thuật đáng kinh ngạc. Người Ai Cập cổ đại là những người tôn thờ mặt trời và là các nhà thiên văn học vĩ đại, vì vậy các tính toán cho Kim tự tháp được dựa trên những quan sát thiên văn.

Khám phá và kiểm tra chi tiết của cấu trúc cho thấy nhiều đường giao nhau. Nghiên cứu khoa học sau đó chỉ ra rằng đây là một dòng chảy của sự kiện - quá khứ, hiện tại và tương lai. Nhiều sự kiện đã được diễn giải và tìm thấy trùng khớp với những sự kiện đã biết của quá khứ. Những điều thì được tiên đoán cho các thế hệ tương lai và hiện đang được điều tra. Nhiều người tin rằng kim tự tháp có sức mạnh siêu nhiên và điều này cũng không ngoại lệ. Một số nhà nghiên cứu thậm chí còn liên kết nó với các sinh vật ngoài trái đất trong quá khứ cổ đại.

Liệu cấu trúc thượng tầng này do những con người bình thường tạo ra hay được tạo ra bởi một giống loài vượt trội so với bất kỳ loài nào ngày nay?
