White House, official residence of the president of the U.S., built in its original form between
1792 and 1800, and situated at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in Washington, D.C. Known variously through its history
as the President's Palace, the President's House, and the Executive Mansion, the building has always been
most popularly known as the White House. Although the White House has been subject to numerous
renovations and additions, it has retained its classically simple character.
166.
The site and the surrounding landscaped lawns and gardens of the White House occupy 7.31
hectares (18.07 acres) and include numerous trees of historical interest. Constructed of Virginia sandstone, the
main building is a stately, white edifice, 52 by 26 m (170 by 85 ft), built in the classical style associated with the
16th-century Italian architect Andrea Palladio. An Ionic portico (1829) on the north side faces Lafayette Square.
On the south side is a semicircular portico (1824) with a private entrance on the ground floor.
167.
The private apartments of the president occupy the second floor of the main building, and the
third floor consists chiefly of guest rooms and quarters for the staff. On the ground floor are cloakrooms, a china
room, the kitchen, and the library.
168.
On the first floor are the formal rooms of state, which are open to the public. Among these
stately rooms are the East Room, the largest room in the White House, used for state receptions and balls, and
where the bodies of William McKinley and John F. Kennedy once lay in state; the oval Blue Room, where the
president receives guests at state dinners; the Red Room, in which the First Lady, or president's wife, receives
guests; the Green Room, used for informal receptions; and the State Dining Room, used for formal dinners.

236.
Butterflies start out as eggs. Butterflies lay their eggs on leaves. The egg
hatches into a caterpillar with a tube-shaped body. The caterpillar eats leaves, buds, or flowers of plants.
Caterpillars eat a lot and grow fast. Some caterpillars harm plants.
237.
When a caterpillar is full size, it goes into another stage called a chrysalis. Caterpillars
attach themselves to something solid before becoming a chrysalis.
238.
The caterpillar inside the chrysalis changes into a butterfly. Some butterflies make the
change in one week. Some butterflies take years to change.
239.
When the change is complete, the adult butterfly splits the chrysalis. The insect unfolds
its wings and pumps blood and air into them. It spreads out the wings until they dry and harden. The
beautiful butterfly then flies off to slurp nectar from flowers. Most butterflies live only one or two weeks.
