Man: Next, at number four, is an office building in Prague, in the Czech Republic that's supposed to look like a couple dancing together and is called the Dancing House. I'm not so sure it looks like a dancing couple myself.
Woman: Oh, I don’t know, if you use a little imagination.
Man: This work of art was designed by a Czech architect, Valdo Milunic, and the great Canadian architect Frank Gehry and was completed in 1996
Woman: Moving on the third place is a very strange house indeed. It's instantly recognizable by the tall long legged figures at the front. It was built by a French postman called Ferdinand Cheval and he spent 33 years constructing it from stones he collected while delivering mail. It's called the Ideal Palace and is in a small town, in France. It's quite an extraordinary from the photos. I’d love to see it.
Woman: Me too. And now, in second place is a hotel that, although it was only built in 1997, is already a legend. It's the Bur Al Arab Hotel on the coastline of Dubai. This building is the tallest hotel in the world and it looks like a billowing(汹涌的) sail.
Man: And finally, in first place is the most unusual building of all according to our listeners, the Basket Housein Newyark, Ohio, in the United States. It's the company office of the Longaberger Basket Company and as its name suggests, it looks like a casket. The building, which was completed in 1997, is made of steel. The exterior is covered in stucco(灰泥), a substance that gives it a rough surface and this makes it look like a basket.
Woman: Actually, when you get closer it looks lees like a basket.
