We could do this book thanks to our English teacher Guillermo, nown as Willy.

The gods created a beautiful woman called Pandora and took her to Prometheus, but he refused to accept her because he knew the gods wanted to take their revenge on him. His brother Epimetheus thought Pandora was so beautiful that she could never cause any harm, so he agreed to marry her.

The couple lived very happily together, until one day the god Mercury arrived, carrying a magnificent box. Mercury wouldn't tell them what the box contained but only that it had to remain sealed forever. He asked the couple if he could leave the box with them until he returned from his journey, and they agreed.

Pandora was very curious about the contents of the box but she had promised Mercury she would never open it. Pandora could not stop gazing at the box. All she could think about was its contents. She began to imagine that it contained beautiful gowns or exquisite jewellery, or even money!

When Pandora knew Epimetheus was out of sight, she would untie the heavy gold cords that kept the box securely fastened, and run her fingers over the carved woodwork. She longed to give in to temptation and open the box, but she always re-tied the cords and returned the

box to its shelf.
