Read the text about the White House and choose the right words to complete the sentences below.

What is the most famous address in the USA? It is definitely 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, D.C. But why does each and every American know this address? It is one of the most important buildings in the country because the President of the USA works there and lives there with their family. Moreover, it is also known as "the People's House, where ... all Americans feel a sense of inclusion and belonging", according to the official website of the White House.

The President's official home was created by the Irish architect James Hoban in the 1790s. There was a forced reconstruction in 1814 after a British attack. In later years, the White House changed slightly according to the taste of each new President and got necessary technological improvements like the installation of electricity.

The President's residence made of stone was painted white in 1798 in order to protect it from low temperatures. The newspapers first started to use the term "White House" a little bit later, before the War of 1812. But it was President Theodore Roosevelt, who, in 1901, made it the official name of the building. Before that, it had been called the Executive Mansion, the Presidential Palace, and the Presidential Mansion.

So, what can you see when you visit the White House? First of all, the building is grand and extremely impressive. There are 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, and 6 levels in the residence. There are also 412 doors, 147 windows, 28 fireplaces, 8 staircases, and 3 elevators. It consists of the main building (the oldest one which you can easily recognise by large central porches and tall columns) and two wings that were built later.
