Read the given passage carefully and pick the correct answers for the following questions: 1. The Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the most famous monuments of the world. Located in the Sahara Desert in the Giza region of northern Egypt, the Great Pyramid towers mammoth 450 feet in to the golden desert sky and covers an area of 13 acres. It was actually 30 feet higher, but the harsh climate of the Sahara made the pyramid shrink. For about 3,800 years, the pyramid was the largest man-made structures on Earth- a brilliant engineering feat! The whole pyramid was covered with polished limestone and this made it shine when the rays of the sun touched its surface. 2. Egyptologists are scientists who are experts in the study of ancient Egypt and the majority of them are of the opinion that the Great Pyramid was constructed more than 4,500 years ago. Thousands of workers laboured for over two decades to build it. Over two million stone blocks were used to construct this huge structure. 3.It was Khufu who was responsible for building the magnificent Pyramid of Giza. It is believed that his vizier (advisor) Hemon was the architect. The Pyramid of Khafre, the smaller Pyramid of Menkaure, a number of smaller pyramids and the Great Sphinx are parts of the Giza complex. Of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World only one remains - the Pyramid of Giza.
