(1) Scientists have been studying an ocean event who is the cause of drastic changes in weather around the world. (2) This event is an increase in the temperature of the Pacific Ocean that appear around Christmas off the coast of Peru. (3) Hence, the Peruvian fishermen whom first noticed it named it El Nino, a name that means "the Christ child" in Spanish. (4) The causes of this rise in ocean temperatures are unknown, but its effects are obvious and devastating.
• (5) One of El Nino's far-reaching effects is that it threatens Peru's vital anchovy harvest, which could mean higher prices for food. (6) The warm water of El Nino keeps the cold water which provides anchovies with food down at the bottom of the ocean. (7) Anchovies are the primary source of fish meal which is the main ingredient in livestock and chicken feed."
(8) In addition, guano from birds who feed off the anchovies is a major source of fertilizer for farmers. (9) As a result of decreasing supplies of anchovies and guano, the prices of chicken feed, livestock feed, and fertilizer rise.

One of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramid of Giza was a monument of wisdom and prophecy built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 B .C . Despite its antiquity, certain aspects of its construction makes it one of the truly 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 of 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 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 of ancient past.
Was this superstructure made by ordinary beings, or one built by a race far superior to any known today?
Question: What was the most probable reason for providing so many hidden passages?
A. To allow the weight of the pyramid to settle evenly.
B. To permit the high priests to pray at night.
C. To keep grave robbers from finding the tomb and the treasure buried with the Pharaoh.
D. To enable the Pharaoh’s family to bring food for his journey to the afterlife
