Madame Tussauds is a famous waxworks museum. It is home to hundreds of effigies of various celebrities from world leaders to film and sports stars, and Marvel superheroes to Star Wars characters, all made with fiberglass bodies and wax heads. The museum was founded in 1835 by Marie Tussaud, whose original name was Marie Grosholtz. She was born in Strasbourg in 1761. 41 years earlier she had taken her exhibition on tour to the British Isles, leaving her husband behind. Many of the original models made by Marie Tussaud of her great contemporaries, including Voltaire, Benjamin Franklin, Horatio Nelson, and Sir Walter Scott, are still preserved. Originally established on Baker Street in the capital of Great Britain in 1884, the museum moved to its current site on Marylebone Road. In 1925, the popular attraction was devastated by fire, but three years later the restoration was completed with the addition of a cinema and restaurant. The attraction became so popular that branches of Madame Tussaud’s museum started to open all over the world.

Read the text and choose the words closest in meaning to the underlined ones. Alice was beginning to get very (16) tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had (17) peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, “and what is the use of a book,” thought Alice, “without pictures or conversations” when (18) suddenly a White Rabbit with (19) pink eyes ran close by her.
