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.
