The quiz seems to be riddled with typoes.
Despite that, the title "Seven Wonders of the World" is sort of the
ancient Greek equivalent of our modern day "Top Ten List" -- a formula
that forces you into a regimented number of entries whether more or fewer
entries are deserved as "wonders". History has settled on Antipater of
Sidon's list, but I gather that even his writings respect some of the
entries that made other ancient thinker's lists, specifically the City
Walls of Babylon, which beat out the Lighthouse at Alexandia for some
ancient Greeks.
