有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Many of you may know that Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia.【1】Last month, Indonesia said that the country would move its capital from Jakarta to Kalimantan. This is big news for Indonesia.

The word capital comes from the Latin word "caput", meaning "head". It is no doubt the "head" of a country. The central government and important institutions (機(jī)構(gòu))are put there. 【2】 In English -language news reports, when you read "relations between Beijing and Moscow" ,it actually means "relations between China and Russia".【3】 Therefore, it is important to choose a good place for one's capital. In many countries, the capital is the richest city. This is because when a city becomes an important business center, it takes on a more important place around the world.

London, for example, has been the economic(經(jīng)濟(jì))center of Britain for nearly 2,000 years, so people naturally chose it as the capital. 【4】For example, Brazil's capital used to be Rio de Janeiro, which is a coastal city. Later the capital moved to the island city of Brasilia, partly because coastal cities can be attacked( 攻擊) more easily.

In the case of Indonesia, the new capital was chosen in order to achieve development in different areas. 【5】 By becoming the new capital, it can expect faster economic growth.
