 Roman Pantheon (萬神殿) is one of the greatest achievements of the ancient Romans. The ancient Romans were good architects and they built many wonderful buildings. Another good example of a Roman architectural style is the Roman Coliseum, which is a large building used for public sports events or entertainment. The Roman architectural style has been borrowed by many of the western countries.
The architecture of Pantheon is unique to Rome. In Latin and Greek, pantheon means "Temple of all the Gods". Marcus Agrippa built the original Pantheon in 27 BC. But the Pantheon built by Agrippa was completely destroyed in 80 AD when a fire broke out. The Roman Pantheon that is visited by many tourists today was rebuilt in 125 AD by the Roman emperor Hadrian. Hadrian's architects followed the exact design of Marcus Agrippa. Historians believe that the Pantheon was a place of worship(崇拜) because it housed all the gods and goddesses of the ancient Romans.
The Pantheon of Rome is an amazing example of ancient Roman architecture. This building has been in use for over 2000 years. The Roman Pantheon is famous for its design, size.

  Our world is getting smaller and smaller.Miss Yamada, whose plane could cover eight hundred kilometers an hour, flew around the world in less than fifty hours.The newest planes could go 600 miles(one mile equals 1.609 kilometres)every sixty minutes, and we are now developing planes that are even faster.

  But it used to take a lot longer to go around the world.Magellan’s men were the first to make the trip.It took them more than two years to do so by ship.

  Magellan was from Portugal, but he sailed for the king of Spain.On September 20, 1519, he left Spain with five ships and 240 men.After passing the tip of South America, they reached the Pacific Ocean, on which they sailed more than one year.Very often they could not see a piece of land for months and they suffered greatly from the lack of food and fresh water.Many of them died of hunger and disease.They even had to live on sawdust(鋸末).Finally in April 1521, Magellan got to the Philippine Islands, where he was killed.His men fled and continued their voyage across the Indian Ocean.It was with the greatest difficulty that they passed the Cape of Good Hope.By the time they returned to Spain on December 21, 1521, seven out of every eight men had died.
