▶ Reading Comprehension ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article. Concepcion- More Modern Than Archaic Hundreds of people died in Chile when the 8.8-magnitude earthquake struck on February 27, six weeks after a magnitude-7 quake clobbered Haiti up north in the Caribbean. The earthquake devastated Concepcion, the second largest city in Chile. U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon visited the city a week after the earthquake. ”I am visiting this city with a deep sadness,” Ban said in Concepcion. “Standing before this destruction, I can feel for your loss, your struggle.” Concepcion held a vital position in early Chilean history. It was the site of the most important government organization during Spanish colonial times and it was from here that Spanish forces attempted to subdue the independence efforts. Due to earthquakes, the city has been rebuilt at various times. It is no wonder why visitors will not see colonial buildings clustered around a central plaza. Instead, they will see a modern city and a port supported by the coal, steel, petrol- chemical, and fishing industries. So the people of Concepcion are proud of their role in Chile’s political, economic and cultural growth. Aside from the destroyed buildings and structures, people still have things to do and see in and around Concepcion. Places of attraction include Convent of San Francisco, the Museum of Natural History, and the Art Museum of Concepcion with an extensive collection of works by Chilean painters. But now the city and the country desperately need overseas aid. Chile is known to be the richest country in South America, with per capita GDP of more than $11,000. Yet it craves huge amounts of outside aid to establish field hospitals, water purification plants as well as rescue manpower. Reports reveal that more than 500,000 houses were destroyed or badly damaged and more are falling down in the continuing aftershocks. The international community has provided generous help for the people of Chile. Korea should extend humanitarian aid to Chile with which Korea signed its first bilateral free trade agreement Places In The News 26. Which of the following was not a result of the Earthquake in Chile? ① More than five hundred thousand homes were destroyed. ② Hundreds of people lost their lives. ③ Cultural buildings and structures were destroyed. ④ The coal, steel, petrol-chemical, and fishing industries have vanquished. 27.
