IV. Reading: Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer:
THE MUSCLES IN OUR BODY
Our human body is made up of many muscles. All these muscles work together to help you move. They form the muscle system. 650 muscles are wrapped around your bones. They basically cover the bones like a blanket. Muscles are fastened to the bones by tough bands. These bands are called tendons.You can see your tendons when you wiggle your finger. Moving your fingers back and forth makes your tendons move.
These muscles around the bone must be told when to move. They are controlled by your thinking. If you want to walk, talk or smile, you send a message to the brain. Your brain picks up the message. It receives it and processes it. Then it sends out an electrical signal through the nerves. The nerves make connections until the signal reaches the proper muscle. This signal tells a muscle what it has to do. The muscle simply does exactly what the brain tells it to do. When you jump, hundreds of muscles work to help you do that.
Muscles work all the time.They even work when you are fast asleep.They keep your body firm and strong.Therefore, it is important to be in good shape.You need to stay healthy so that your muscles can remain powerful too.One thing that muscles need is good food.Muscles develop when they have protein.Milk, eggs, red meat, fish and beans are rich in protein.A healthy diet includes these food types.Muscles also need to be exercised to remain firm and toned.Regular exercise makes your muscles bigger, strengthens your heart and lungs and makes you more flexible.Good ways to exercise our walking, swimming, cycling, dancing or playing soccer.These activities improve your stamina.If you have good stamina, you can keep going for a long time without getting tired.

In 1959, the government of Egypt was working on a plan to build a dam on the River Nile. It was called the Aswan Dam, and it was intended to generate electricity and allow the river water to be used for agriculture. There was one big problem with the plan, though. The dam would flood a nearby valley that contained ancient Egyptian treasures, including two enormous stone temples.
It can be difficult for governments to choose culture and history over economics. However, if countries always made decisions like this, the majority of the world's ancient sites would end up being destroyed. Luckily, UNESCO stepped in. They formed a committee that tried to convince Egypt to protect its ancient treasures. With support from many countries, they were finally successful. The huge temples were carefully removed from their original site and moved to a safe location so that the dam could be built.
After their success in saving the temples in Egypt, UNESCO went on to save more sites around the world. They protected lagoons in Venice, ruins in Pakistan, and temples in Indonesia. With industrialisation changing the world rapidly, there were many sites that needed to be saved. Eventually, UNESCO formed the World Heritage Organisation to protect important natural and historic sites wherever it was necessary.
By now, the World Heritage Organisation has protected hundreds of sites ranging from beautiful natural islands to buildings in large cities and ancient ruins. If you're able to visit any of the many protected sites, you'll agree it was worth it.
