Madame Tussaud’s is a wax museum. There are a lot of kings, queens, politicians and stars. You can see famous people from the past and famous people of today — Charlie Chaplin, Princess Diana, Sylvester Stallone and many others. It is very popular — two million people visit it every year. There are about four hundred figures in the museum. It takes about six months to make a new figure. Artists make the faces and hands from wax. They make the bodies from plastic. They use real human hair on the heads. Often, famous people give their clothes for the figures.

Excuse me? Yes? Can you tell me the way to the market, please? Yes. It’s in Milford Street. Go straight on. Turn left. It’s next to the post office. A: Thank you.
