For example, in the northeast of the United States, there was a famous rock on a high mountain that looked just like an old man. He had lots of hair, a big nose and a beard．People called him“The Old Man of the Mountain” and every year more than a million people came to look at him. “The Old Man of the Mountain”, also known as the Great Stone Face or the Profile, was 1,200 feet (370 meters) above Profile Lake, and measured 40 feet (12 meters) tall and 25 feet (7.6 meters) wide.
