correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 16 to 20.
Indonesia is a group of islands, located between Asia and Australia. It is close to the equator,
so it never gets cold. Every day, the temperature is between 21°C and 32°C. Indonesia is covered
with tropical rainforests. For many years, Indonesians have used wood to build their homes. Most
of the old houses have wooden frames, walls and floors. Local people have cleared land for
farming, and loggers have cut down miles of trees to sell the wood to other countries. Now there is
a serious shortage of trees.
Nowadays, in Indonesia's rural areas, many of the houses are built on stilts. They raise the
houses up, keep the living area off the wet soil, and also keep the houses from flooding during the
rainy season. Some people still live in houses with only one room, and some of these houses do not
have electricity or running water, but they cannot afford to improve their housing.
In Indonesian cities, more and more people live in crowded apartment buildings. However, it
is hard for people to find good housing. The electricity often goes out throughout these whole
buildings. Moreover, landlords do not want to rent their property to poor people, and banks do not
want to lend them money to buy homes.
Because of its location, natural disasters such as floods, droughts, earthquakes and forest fires
frequently occur, which destroys buildings and leaves people homeless. These disasters affect
people both in the city and in the country.
