World Heritage Sites
- Mary :
- ❶I hear that you like a TV program about World Heritage Sites.
- Ken :
- Yes, I do. It’s something that I never miss.
- Mary :
- How many World Heritage Sites are there in the world?
- Ken :
- Over 1,000.
- Mary :
- That many! What site would you like to go to the most?
- Ken :
- I’d love to visit Abu Simbel in Egypt, which was saved from a dam construction on the Nile.
- Mary :
- ❷Saved? ❷From a dam construction?
- Ken :
- Yeah, the temples at Abu Simbel were moved to a higher place, because they were going to be covered by water from a lake which was formed by the building of a big dam.
- Mary :
-
That’s amazing!
I’m glad they did that.
