Where did the ceremonies take place? Can you name any public buildings in India that are made of sandstone?
(1) The ceremonies took place in the lovely sandstone amphitheatre formed by the Union Buildings in Pretoria. For decades, this historic location had been the seat of white supremacy, but on this day it transformed into the site for a rainbow gathering of different colours and nations for the installation of South Africa's first democratic, non-racial government.
(2) As for naming any public buildings in India made of sandstone, the provided context does not contain this information. The text only references the sandstone structure of the Union Buildings in Pretoria and does not discuss Indian architecture.
Explanation
The text explicitly states that the inauguration ceremonies took place in the sandstone amphitheatre formed by the Union Buildings in Pretoria, which historically served as a seat of white supremacy before becoming a symbol of democratic unity. For the second part of the question, while the original textbook expects students to use general knowledge (such as the Rashtrapati Bhavan or the Red Fort), the provided context strictly limits the information to South Africa, containing no references to Indian buildings. Therefore, adhering strictly to the given context, the second part cannot be answered with external facts.
