题目内容
16.After more than 3,000years,a statue of the Egyptian king Amenhotep III has been erected in the city of Luxor after being knocked down by an earthquake.One of the great figures in the story of ancient Egypt,Amenhotep III was a boy king.He became king of Egypt at the age of only 12years.He ruled at a time when Egyptian civilization was at its very height.
Amenhotep III was given statues in his honor and among them this 13-meter-high statue stood on the bank of the Nile until it was knocked down by an earthquake 3,000years ago.So for 30centuries,it lay in pieces in the field,more than 80pieces.Now the statue has been restored and shown to the public.There is another very similar huge statue of Amenhotep III.It was also damaged by that earthquake.And it,too,has been repaired and put back in its place.These two statues stand at the gates of the famous funerary temple in Luxor,which has another two huge seated figures of the kings.
And the background for this is just that tourism is very important to the Egyptian economy after what's been happening recently.Years of disturbance (骚乱)has hit the Egyptian economy in many ways and any improvement of that economy will need to be helped by the tourist industry.The legacy(遗产)of ancient Egypt is so much,so important to that tourist industry.And the images coming from Luxor today show just how delighted and proud the archeologists and the local people are for what they've seen today.
