JULIA: I just finished my first study of history. It is so fascinating.

　　SERGIO: What did you learn?

　　JULIA: Did you know that The New York Times was founded in 1851? Also, I found out that in 1889, The Eiffel Tower was built in Paris. It was built as a temporary structure to celebrate the centennial of the French Revolution.

　　SERGIO: Now it's famous.

　　JULIA: By 1930, The Chrysler Building was built in New York City.

　　SERGIO: I read about that. After that they built the Empire State Building which was even taller.

　　JULIA: And then by 1996, the Petronas Towers were constructed in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and was claimed to be the tallest

　　building in the world at the time.

　　SERGIO: China is catching up, you know. The Jin Mao Building in Shanghai is the tallest in China.

　　Julia: New buildings are different than before. St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, was started in 1506 and finished in 1626.

　　Sergio: That's 120 years to finish.

　　Julia: And it is still there today as a sign of the strength of the Catholic faith.

　　Sergio: Nothing good comes easy.
