Soru 19 : Mine-clearing efforts made more progress last year than ever before.  But there is concern about future progress because international support decreased for the first time. The European Commission, the United States and eight other major donors decreased their financing of 'mine action,' which is defined as clearing mines and destroying supplies of them.  It also includes mine risk education and survivor assistance. Seven hundred forty square kilometers, an area about the size of New York City, was cleared of mines last year.  It is the most land cleared in one year since modern de-mining efforts started in nineteen eighty. Yet the number of reported casualties from landmine explosions was eleven percent higher than in the previous year.  Landmines killed at least two thousand people and wounded more than five thousand others last year.  About eighty percent of the victims were civilians. What is more, numbers of reported casualties are often less than half of the real number. More than one hundred fifty governments have joined the Mine Ban Treaty, banning the use, production and trade of landmines.   Twenty-nine still have to finish mine-clearing within the next few years.  But thirteen might not meet that goal.

Soru 25 :

The idea that American Indians could have built something resembling a city was so foreign to European settlers that when they encountered the Cahokia Mounds in Illinois in Midwest America, they thought they must have been the work of a foreign civilization: either the Phoenicians or the Vikings. Even today the idea of an Indian city runs so contrary to American notions of Indian life that no Anglo-Saxon American can absorb it. The first person to write an account of the Cahokia Mounds, the earliest and finest city built by Indians, was Henry Bracken bridge in 1811.When he reported his discovery, likening it to Egyptian pyramids, newspapers widely ignored it. He complained of this to his friend, former president Thomas Jefferson, and the word of 'Cahokia' did eventually get around. Unfortunately, most Americans were not very interested. The United States was trying to get the Indians out of the way, not appreciate their history. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 which ordered the relocation of eastern Indians to lands west of the Mississippi was based on the assumption that Indians were nomadic savages with no ability to make good use of land. Evidence of an ancient city, close to the size of Washington, D.C. at that time, would have spoiled the story line.

It can be understood from the passage that during the 1800s —.

A)  the general tendency in American society towards the historic cities built by the Indians was one of acceptance

B)   eastern American Indians were forced to relocate to pi aces to the east of the Mississippi River

C) most Americans including journalists and presidents were not interested in hearing anything positive regarding American Indians

D)   American Indians were unable to make good use of the land as they were nomads and considered to be savages

E)  most Americans, journalists as well as
presidents saw American Indians as an obstacle
to urban land development
