Again, I find this passage very interesting. And I design five questions for my students.

More than 10, 000 camels from across the Gulf will take part in a competition for millions of dollars in prize money at a beauty show for " the ship of the desert " in Abu Dhabi this week .
The competition is part of a camel festival being staged from Wednesday in the capital of the United Arab Emirates which aims to celebrate and preserve the region's cultural heritage
Camels from Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia will show themselves before a group of experts judge who should be given the prize money, around 9.5 mil-lion dollars. One hundred cars are also available and ready to be won.
"Preserving the rich heritage of the UAE and passing it on to future generations is one of the most important tasks which people of the UAE wish to do, by connecting our culturally rich past with our aspired bright and successful future, " the official WAM news agency quoted festival organizer Mohammed al-Mazrouei as saying earlier last week.
Oil-rich Abu Dhabi, one of seven emirates that makes up the UAE federation, produced the world's first test-tube purebred camel and has begun using remote-controlled robot riders in its camel competitions.
Camel competing is a very popular sport in Arab countries. It's not only a sport for fun but also a business which brings much money to people.

I don’t see the underlined word anywhere in paragraph 3.

It's in the phrase "show themselves before a group of experts [who will] judge who should be given the prize money" — the answer's A. I think the questions all make sense.

Sorry,sir. I forget to underline the word.
And I'm not seeking answers here. I make the passage into a reading comprehensive worksheet for my students. But I'm not sure if my 5 questions are well-designed.
