Passage One
In Greece only rich people
will rest in peace forever when they die.
Most of the population, however,
will be undisturbed for only three years.
Then they will be dug up, washed,
compressed into a small tin box and placed in a bone room.
If a body has only partially decayed
it is buried in a smaller, cheaper grave.
But not for long,
the body will be dug up again some time later
when it has fully decayed.
Buying apiece of land for a grave
is the only way to avoid this process.
The cost of a grave is so great
that most people choose to rent a grave for three years.
And even after being dug up,
lasting peace is still not guaranteed.
If no one pays for renting space in the bone room,
the skeleton is removed and stored in a building
in a poor part of the town.
Lack of space in Athens,
is the main reason why the dead are dug up after three years.
The city is so overcrowded
that sometimes dead bodies are kept in hospitals
for over a week until grave space is found.
Athens city council wants to introduce cremation that is,
burying dead bodies as a means of dealing with the problems.
But the Greek Church resists this practice,
they believe the only place where people burn, is hell.
So burning bodies is against the Greek concept of life after death.
To save space,
the church suggested burying bodies standing up
rather than lying down.
Some people proposed building multi storey underground graveyards.
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. What must the Greek's do
to keep the dead resting in everlasting peace?
27. Why are most dead bodies in Athens
dug up after only three years?
28. What suggestion does the church give
about the burying of dead bodies?
29. What practice does the Greek Church object to?
