"Ancient and modern wonders of the world”. I know that you’ve already learnt
about it, so we will revise it again. I hope our lesson will be interesting and

(The possible answer: It is a feeling of amazement and admiration, caused by
something beautiful, remarkable, or unfamiliar. Or : It is a person or thing
regarded as very good, remarkable, or effective:
T: Think and tell why the wonders of the ancient world seem to be
concentrated around a particular region of the world.
(The possible answer: That was the whole known world of that age.)
