    The city of Angkor was the capital of the Khmer Empire from the 9th to the 15th centuries. The Khmer Empire was one of the most prosperous kingdoms in the history of Southeast Asia, and its prosperity was expressed through a wide range of architecture.

    The city of Angkor was founded on political and religious ideas adapted from India, and the temples of Angkor were intended as a place of worship for the king and a way for him to ensure his immortality through identification with the Hindu gods.

    Angkor Wat was first built by King Suryavarman Ⅱ in the 12th century as a vast funerary temple that would hold his remains, symbolically(象征性地) confirming his permanent identity with Vishnu.

    During its six centuries as imperial capital, Angkor went through many changes in architectural styles and in religion. The city of Angkor transferred itself from the Hindu god Shiva to the Hindu god Vishnu, and finally to the Mahayana Buddhist goddess Avalokitesvara.

    By the late 13th century, the once frenzied(发狂的) pace of Angkor's architectural pursuits had begun to die down, and a more restrained type of religion was on the rise under the growing influence of Theravada Buddhism.

    At the same time, Angkor and the Khmer Empire were increasingly threatened and attacked by invading armies. By the 16th century, the golden age of Angkor was over and many of the great temples began to move back into the jungle.

    From the 15th to 19th centuries, Theravada Buddhist monks cared for Angkor Wat, and it is thanks to them that the temple remains mostly intact(完整的). Angkor Wat became one of the most important pilgrimage(朝拜) sites in Southeast Asia. Angkor Wat is the best preserved example of Khmer architecture in Cambodia and is so grand in design that some rank it among the seven wonders of the world. It appears on the Cambodian national flag, a very rare instance of a flag with an image of a building.

    1. Angkor Wat was first built to________.

    A. hold the remains of a king      B. serve as the royal palace

    C. worship the gods             D. be the tomb for the king

    2. Angkor Wat probably began to face real threat from________.

    A. the 12th century               B. the late 13th century

    C. the 16th century              D. the 15th  century

    3. Vishnu was the name of________.

    A. a king in ancient Cambodia

    B. a temple in Cambodia

    C. an Indian god

    D. a monk in ancient Cambodia

    4. We can infer from the last paragraph that________.

    A. Angkor Wat is widely accepted as one of the seven wonders of the world

    B. Theravada Buddhist monks had fought against the outside invaders

    C. Angkor Wat is not so important as it used to be

    D. Angkor Wat has become a symbol of Cambodia

    5. The passage mainly tells us________.

    A. the history of Angkor Wat

    B. the protection of Angkor Wat

    C. the importance of Angkor Wat

    D. the position of Angkor in Cambodian history
