Despite its antiquity, certain aspects of its construction make it one of truly great 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 for 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 the 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 if the ancient past. Was this superstructure made by ordinary beings, or one built by a race far superior to any known today? A7CC What has research of the base revealed? $@There are cracks in the foundation. 3@A superior race of people built it. @The lines represent important events. 5@Tomb robbers have stolen the pharaoh’s body. A7CD Extraterrestrial beings are _____. $@living being from other planets 3@researchers in Egyptology @very strong workers 5@astronomers in the ancient times A7C+ What was the most probable reason for providing so many hidden passages? $@To permit the high priests to pray at night. 3@To allow the weight of the pyramid to settle evenly. @To keep grave robbers from finding the tomb and the treasure buried with the pharaoh. 5@To enable the pharaoh’s family to bring food for his journey to the afterlife.

According to the fossil record, bats were soaring in the sky at least 55 million years ago. These ancient fliers, says evolutionary biologist Nancy Simmons of New York’s American Museum of Natural History, were “virtually indistinguishable from today echolocating bats”. Though to look at them most resemble rodents, bats’ closest cousins are primates. Modern bats are amazingly diverse, about 1,000 species account for nearly a fourth of all mammal species. The only known group of flying mammals, they range in size from Thailand’s tiny bumblebee bat, weighing almost nothing, to Indonesia’s giant flying fox, with wingspans of nearly 5 ft. Many bats feed on insects, while others prefer fruit, nectar, or pollen. A few feast on fish, rodents, and blood. Contrary to legend, however, vampire bats, which dwell in Latin America, suck the blood of grazing cattle and horses, not sleeping humans. Essentially docile, bats play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance. For one thing, they protect crops from marauding insects. The 20 million Mexican free-tailed bats that roots in Bracken Cave near San Antonio, Texas, from spring to fall consume 250 tons of insects every night as they swarm to altitudes of more than 10.000ft. A single little brown bat can also lap up 600 mosquitoes an hour.
