The spring semester had previously been scheduled to end on May 29, but it will now end one week later, on June 5.

Sample answer：

In this talk, the professor discusses Mount Rushmore, which is a giant sculpture of four U.S. presidents that is carved into the side of a mountain in South Dakota.

The project took a long time to complete. The sculptor, Borglum, began it when he was 60, and he expected to finish in five years, but the project actually took 15 years. The sculptor died before it was finished, and his son finished it.

The delays were caused by two types of problems. One type of problem was red tape, which is difficulty in dealing with government agencies. The other type of problem was Mother Nature, which is problems with nature. One example of a problem with nature was a crack that appeared in the carving of Thomas Jeffersons face. The sculptor had to destroy that part of the sculpture and start over again in a different place.
