The Buddha is located in Sichuan Province, facing Min River, Qingyi River, and Dadu River. In December, 1996, the Buddha was included by UNESCO on the list of the World Heritage (世界遗产录)The statue was begun in the year 713 in the Tang Dynasty, and finished in the year 803. The Buddha is 71 meters high. The eightmeterlong instep (脚背) is big enough for one hundred people to sit on and the 28meterwide shoulder is large enough to be a basketball playground.A monk called Hai Tong is connected with the Buddha forever. At that time, wild waters brought out many boat accidents and people just put the disaster down to the presence of a water spirit. So Hai Tong decided to make a statue beside the river thinking that the Buddha would bring the water spirit under control. After 20 years begging from door to door, he finally collected enough money for the plan. When some local government officials tried to get this amount of money, Hai Tong said that they could get his eyeball but not the money raised for the Buddha. After he dug out his eyeball, these officials ran away scared. The project was half done when Hai Tong passed away, and two of his disciples (门徒) continued the work. After a total of 90 years hard work, the project was finally completed.Having such a long history, the Buddha was nearly destroyed by the wind and rain. The Chinese government began the repairing work in 1963 under the instruction of experts from UNESCO.1Whats the main idea of this passage?ATo explain the Leshan Giant Buddha briefly.BTo tell us how the Leshan Giant Buddha was built.CTo say where the Leshan Giant Buddha is.DTo mention how the Leshan Giant Buddha came into the World Heritage.2According to the passage, the Leshan Giant Buddha_.Awas completed when Hai Tong was aliveBdidnt exist nowCplayed a good role in controlling the riverDhas been a World Heritage site for over ten years3Hai Tong hoped to build the statue to_.Amake his temple more famousBshow respect to the water spiritCprotect the safety of the local peopleDget more people to believe in Buddhism4In this passage, Hai Tong can be best described as_.Agenerous BcruelCeasygoingDlongsufferingBThe Harbin Ice and Snow Festival has been held every year since 1963.
