Read the following paragraph and choose the best topic sentence from the four options that follow. Write the corresponding letter of your choice on the answer sheet. Leeds’ Hyde Park Picture House, the U.K.’s only surviving gas-lit cinema, has secured a £2.4 million investment to ensure the lights stay on. First launched in 1914, the small picture house was once used to broadcast news bulletins and announcements during wartime. To this day, the cinema continues to use gas lighting, giving modem patrons a sense of the building’s century-long history. The funding of the cinema is part of a £55 million Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) scheme ensuring the future of Britain’s most prestigious historical buildings. The lottery funding will be used not only to keep the cinema lit by gas lamps, but also to restore its special floors and decorations. Britain’s Heritage Minister Tracey Crouch said: “Our heritage provides us with a sense of identity and helps boost tourism and local economies. These grants will help preserve important parts of our heritage for the public to enjoy.”
