His nly training was eight mnths f practice in a 20m htel pl. After jumping ff the blck he set a quick pace early n but quickly grew tired, struggling t finish the race withut drwning.

When we visit museums, we see cultural artifacts—frm everyday husehld items t precius carvings and statues, which shw us the different cultures and cmmunities frm arund the wrld. Hwever, debate surrunds these artifacts and whether r nt cuntries shuld return these pieces f culture if they were stlen r frcefully taken during clnizatin.
By the 18th and 19th centuries, Eurpean cuntries such as Britain, France, and the Netherlands had clnized many African and Asian cuntries. During their rule, they seized artifacts and brught them t their wn cuntries, where they are nw n shw in museums.
Over the years, Eurpean museums have been asked t give back the artifacts. In 2009, Egypt demanded that France return five pieces f a wall painting frm the tmb f Tekati. In 2012, Nigeria asked fr the return f thirty-tw cultural items frm the Museum f Fine Arts in Bstn. In 2017, the Gvernment f Benin in West Africa tried t reach an agreement with the British Museum t return their Benin Brnzes.
The debate regarding this issue tk a turn in 2018 when under President Emmanuel Macrn a reprt was released that directed that all heritage bjects brught t French museums be returned. With the fficial release f this reprt, museums all acrss Eurpe began recnsidering their previus plicies n clnial treasures.
In France, twenty-seven artifacts had been identified fr return, but nly ne has been returned. Then, n Tuesday, Octber 6, 2020, France's Natinal Assembly fficially passed a bill prmising the return f these heritage artifacts, but didn't arrange a certain date.
Thse wh suggest returning these bjects t their hmes argue that with technlgy enabling nline museum turs, returning these artifacts t their hmeland des nt take away the pprtunity t learn abut them. Furthermre, the cuntry wning the bjects will receive a significant part f their heritage back, and these artifacts will be given a chance t be truly appreciated in hmeland.
Thse against the return hld the view that culture is a shared treasure and the artifacts are in fact “cultural ambassadrs” that prmte understanding. They believe that while stealing them was wrng, histry is full f “gd” and “bad” actrs. Mrever, they feel that keeping the cultural bjects in the current museums has kept millins f artifacts safe frm damage.
19. What is Paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. Requests fr the return f cultural bjects.
B. Discussin abut stlen artifacts' prtectin.
C. Debate n whether t give back the stlen artifacts.
D. Demands fr the museums' wnership f the artifacts.
20. Why did the museums recnsider their plicies?
A. French president prmised t well prtect the artifacts in the museum.
B. French gvernment agreed t send the artifacts back t their hmeland.
C. Eurpean cuntries fficially agreed t give back the clnial treasures
D. President Emmanuel Macrn demanded Eurpean museums return the artifacts.
21. What can we learn frm Paragraph 5?
A. It is impssible fr France t keep its prmise.
B. French gvernment is cnfident abut its plicy.
C. The stlen treasures can't be back t their hmeland sn
D. Artifacts are mre appreciated in France than in ther cuntries.
22. Peple wh cnsider the artifacts as “cultural ambassadrs” may agree that .
A. mistakes in histry need crrecting in time
B. artifacts will be better prtected in hmeland
