Look at the picture and talk about it with your partner.
Then read the passage and choose the best title for it.
1a
The Egyptian pyramids were built around 2 560 B.C. The largest one of them is
the Great Pyramid of Khufu. It is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The King, Khufu,
built the Great Pyramid as his tomb. Studies show that it took 100 000 people over 20 years
to complete it.
The Great Pyramid was considered a unique building in the 19th century A.D. At that
time, it was still the tallest building in the world. According to scientific research, the
ancient King, Khufu,ordered his men to build the Great Pyramid stone by stone. The
biggest stone weighs as much as 15 tons. Each stone was fixed so well, though the ancient
workers didn't have any modern tools. The Great Pyramid has four sides and each side is
230.4 meters long and 146.5 meters high. At that time, there were no modern machines or
equipment, so how did the ancient Egyptians build the Great Pyramid? To this day, it is still
a mystery. But many scientists continue to study their methods. The completion of the
Great Pyramid shows the wisdom and the achievements of ancient Egyptian working people.
