279 -The passage tells us that, in his football life, Robeson -- .

Touring the monuments to Thailand's past will take the traveller to all parts of the country. Just a
short distance west of Bangkok, for example, stands Phra Pathom Chedi, the world's tallest Buddhist
monument. Travel a little further west and an episode of more recent history is recalled at
Kachanaburi, site of the infamous bridge over the River Kwai. In contrast, north -east Thailand offers
a glimpse of the ancient Khmer civilisation with a number of extremely well -preserved temple ruins,
which rank as the finest surviving Khmer monuments to be seen outside of Cambodia. Elsewhere,
ancient cities and venerable temples bear witness to the kingdom of Lanna, founded in the late 13th
century in northern Thaaand, while in the south traces of the Srivajaya kingdom survive as testament
to one of the most influential of the pre -Thai civilisations.

A) the best reason to visit Thailand is to relax on its beautiful beaches
B) the Bridge on the River Kwai is one of the oldest monuments in Thailand

45 
D) anyone who loves history should enjoy a visit to Thailand
E) Thailand has been an isolated country throughout most of its history
