Examen Completo 1ESo Temas 7 y 8
Hi everyone! I’m home in London now, but last week, I was at a friend’s house in
Illinois, USA. There’s an amazing building in the area – a big, gold pyramid. That’s
something you rarely see in the USA! The pyramid is really a house. It was the idea of
a man called Jim Onan. Onan’s pyramid isn’t as big as some of the pyramids in Egypt,
but it’s real gold. Onan loves Egyptian antiques, and the pyramid house is full of old
Egyptian paintings, furniture and statues. There are three living rooms, a dining room,
five bedrooms and a kitchen. The rooms aren’t cold and dark like the real pyramids
because there are some windows for light. There are three small pyramids in the
garden for the family’s cars, and there’s a tall statue of the ancient Egyptian king,
Ramses. There’s also a model of King Tutankhamun’s tomb. A few years ago, the
house was open to the public. The rooms were often full of people and there was a
shop with ancient Egyptian art and models. The pyramid house is rarely open to the
public now, but you can see it from the street. You can also see satellite pictures of the
pyramids and statues on the Internet. They’re amazing
