In questo episodio parlo di uno dei tanto stereotipi sugli italiani: L'essere "mammoni"!!!
Se è sicuramente vero che abbiamo un legame fortissimo con la nostra famiglia e in particolare con la mamma, è anche vero che non bisogna fare l'errore di valutare aspetti culturali come questo con una scala di valori che appartiene ad una cultura diversa. Buon ascolto e buono studio a tutti!!! CIAO MAMMA 🖐  :)

Episode 6:
"Put Off... Like Laundry"
Today on “Phrasal Verbs Gone Wild”, we’re talking about everyone’s favourite phrasal verb: “put off”.
When you “put off” something, you’re delaying it. You know, like when you “put off” doing laundry until you have literally no clothes left.
Or when you “put off” studying until the night before the exam, because who needs sleep anyway, right?

The Step Pyramid of Djoser

A

The pyramids are the most famous monuments of ancient Egypt and still hold enormous interest for people in the present day. These grand, impressive tributes to the memory of the Egyptian kings have become linked with the country even though other cultures, such as the Chinese and Mayan, also built pyramids. The evolution of the pyramid form has been written and argued about for centuries. However, there is no question that, as far as Egypt is concerned, it began with one monument to one king designed by one brilliant architect: the Step Pyramid of Djoser at Saqqara.

B

Djoser was the first king of the Third Dynasty of Egypt and the first to build in stone. Prior to Djoser’s reign, tombs were rectangular monuments made of dried clay brick, which covered underground passages where the deceased person was buried. For reasons which remain unclear, Djoser’s main official, whose name was Imhotep, conceived of building a taller, more impressive tomb for his king by stacking stone slabs on top of one another, progressively making them smaller, to form the shape now known as the Step Pyramid. Djoser is thought to have reigned for 19 years, but some historians and scholars attribute a much longer time for his rule, owing to the number and size of the monuments he built.

C

The Step Pyramid has been thoroughly examined and investigated over the last century, and it is now known that the building process went through many different stages. Historian Marc Van de Mieroop comments on this, writing ‘Much experimentation was involved, which is especially clear in the construction of the pyramid in the center of the complex. It had several plans … before it became the first Step Pyramid in history, piling six levels on top of one another … The weight of the enormous mass was a challenge for the builders, who placed the stones at an inward incline in order to prevent the monument breaking up.’

Part 2 will be added later today. Stay tuned.
