Do you like traveling? I like it so much. Last month I (take) a tour around Egypt and visited the pyramids(金字塔).
They are so amazing!
The pyramids are in a desert. They were built (thousand) of years ago, and are one of the (famous) ancient buildings in the world. The pyramids are all made of stones. Each stone (weigh) about 2,500 kilos. The Great Pyramid of Khufu is the (large) pyramid. It's so huge t it covers an area of almost 52,900 square meters.
Why did people build these pyramids? They built the pyramids to keep the Pharaohs' mummies(法老的木乃伊). Mummies can be kept a long time. The pharaohs believed that by keeping their mummies in the pyramids, they could continue to rule the world of Death a they died.
Many scientists do (research) about pyramids today. They are trying to learn more about Egyptian life in old ways studying the mummies.
