Bài học Read Unit 14 tiếng Anh lớp 8 hướng dẫn các em đọc và tìm hiểu về địa danh nổi tiếng Angkor Wat.
a) The only surviving wonder on Antipater's list is the Pyramid of Cheops (đáp án C).
b) Angkor Wat was originally built for Hindus (đáp án A).
c) Angkor Wat was part of a royal Khmer city a long time ago (đáp án D).

Cách đây hàng thế kỉ ở Hy Lạp cổ đại có một người tên là Antipater thành Sido đã biên soạn một danh mục cho biết về bảy kì quan của thế giới là gì. Bảy kì quan này bao gồm Vườn treo Babylon ở Iraq ngày nay, tượng thần Zeus ở Hy Lạp và Kim tự tháp Cheops ở Ai Cập. Kim tự tháp này là kì quan duy nhất bạn có thể thấy được cho đến tận bây giờ.
Nhiều người tuyên bố rằng còn có nhiều kì quan khác nữa mà người Hy Lạp cổ đại không biết đến. Những kì quan này bao gồm Vạn Lý Trường Thành của Trung Quốc, đền thờ Taj Mahal ở Ấn Độ và Angkor Wat ở Cam pu chia.
Angkor Wat thật sự được biết đến như một kì quan vì nó là ngôi đền lớn nhất thế giới. Ngôi đền này được xây vào khoảng năm 1100 để tôn thờ vị thần đạo Hindu, nhưng hơn 3 thế kỉ sau đó nó trở thành trung tâm tín ngưỡng Phật giáo. Vùng đất xung quanh đền, Angkor Thom đã từng là thành phố thủ đô của hoàng gia.
Vào đầu thế kỉ 15, những kẻ thống trị Khmer đến Phnom Penh và Angkor chìm trong im lặng. Giờ đây nó là điểm hấp dẫn khách du lịch.

Nói về tháp Eiffel
Câu trả lời của bạn
For more than a hundred years France and Paris have been associated with the Eiffel Tower. One can not imagine Paris without the Eiffel Tower.
Built in 1889, to serve the international exhibition, the Eiffel Tower is the most controversial of Paris. No Parisian who lived in the late nineteenth century was able to ignore the appearance of the Eiffel Tower.
Eiffel Tower - symbol of France.
Eiffel Tower - symbol of France.
In 1889, France planned to hold an exhibition to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the French bourgeois revolution (1789 - 1889), by which it sought to assert itself as an industrial powerhouse, simultaneously expressing the daring of the French. dare to initiate a new revolution in the history of French architecture with the use of iron, steel and iron construction materials ... By doing so, France was the beginning of an industrial era with civilization. Material items, steel as the symbol.
Gustave Eiffel.
Implementing the idea, France allowed the construction of an iron tower, 300m high tower in March (Champ de Mars) on the banks of the Seine. Of the 700 design proposals submitted to the people only retained 3 proposals to consider. Finally, the 36-year-old Gustave Eiffel project, an engineer, contractor and entrepreneur, was approved. He bought and edited, edited the outlines of two engineers Köllanh and Nughie are employees in his firm. Both the estate of his Eiffel focused on the construction of a monumental construction work, moreover faced the dislike of public opinion. Eiffel's idea of erecting a tower of more than 300 meters of steel has caused fierce debate among traditionalists and modernists. In the art and literature circles, most are angry because they fear that this iron-clad skeleton will be a black spot in Paris. Meanwhile, the Eiffel exclaimed excitedly: France is the only country with a flagpole higher than 300m. Indeed, at that time, the tallest statue in Washington was less than 125 meters below the Eiffel Tower.
The Eiffel Tower was built in 25 months. Many Parisians come to see this bizarre construction, and are always skeptical that someday this tower may fall on their heads. From 1887 to 1889, 300 good workers climbed up and assembled a million and a half naval rivets. The bottom of the tower occupies an area of 129m. With a height of 300 meters, the tower is divided into three floors: From the top of the tower to the vision to 67km. Every seven years, 50 tons of paint and 40,000 hours of work to paint the tower.
The Eiffel Tower was built in 25 months.
When the construction of the Eiffel Tower began, the tower was only allowed to exist for 20 years. In 1887, many artists and writers drafted a protest "Three hundred protesters" to prevent the tower from building because it would dishonor Paris. In 1910, the era was completely changed: the Eiffel Tower became the inspiration of many poets and artists. Cocteau wrote a play called "The Eiffel Tower Wedding". Apollinaire took the tower as a symbol for many poems. Pissarro; Dufy; Utrillo and many other artists also often painted the tower on the skyline of Paris ... In addition to modern technology has progressed rapidly and since 1904 people have placed the top of the tower an antenna system. Finally, in 1910, it was decided that the Eiffel Tower survived forever: The tower served the international standard clock service, with its height, which could be used for telephoning radio transmissions. continent. In 1918, the radio used the tower to broadcast and by 1957, the television station had mounted the antenna to the top of the tower. Later, a meteorological and aerospace laboratory also used the tallest tower.
Edouard (Galloway), with his family, was the first to reach the top of the tower on June 10, 1889. They could be reached by elevator or staircase to the first and second floor), the public can take a walk and visit the terrace of all three floors: On the first floor through the audio equipment visitors will hear about the history of the tower, floor Two have restaurants serving evening meals; The third floor is covered with glass, visitors can view the landscape all sides and view the elevator system on the flagpole west. On the third floor there is the most famous Jules Verne (Giuylé Vêtê), especially with gray napkins, black plates, black feet, black roses on the table.
The Eiffel Tower is divided into three floors.
For a panoramic view of Paris, visitors should choose a sunny day, do not go to the tower too early because morning in Paris often fog. In the afternoon at sunset, or at night visitors will see a great scene. Since 1985, the tower has been fitted with a lighting system that highlights the beauty and architectural lines of the tower.
