a. 3 million. b. half million. c. 160 million. d. 320 million. 10. what would be the best title of this passage? a. peoples life in egypt and sudanb. frequent drought in egypt and sudanc. the poorest countries in the nile basind. the ecosystem problems in the nile basin答案解析. 有时候是什么东西欺骗了我们的双眼, 让虚假代替了真实, 让赝品代替了宝物呢?
