四、阅读理解

By the River Seine, a beautiful iron(铁) tower shoots(耸立) straight up to the clouds. It is the Eiffel Tower, the symbol of Paris.

The building of the tower started in January 1887. In the next 26 months, 50 engineers produced(生产) 5300 drawings and over 100 workers built more than 18000 different iron parts for the tower.

The Eiffel Tower is named after its designer(设计者), Gustave Eiffel. The tower opened to the public on March 31, 1889. On that day, Gustave Eiffel climbed the 1710 steps of the tower to its top. The 312-metre-tall Eiffel Tower was the highest building in the world at that time. The Tower is so tall that it sways slightly (轻轻摆动) in strong wind.

An important part of the tower is the elevators(电梯). They started to work when the tower opened in 1889. Today, almost every building has elevators, but back then, those elevators were great technical achievement(科技成果). Every year, many thousands of visitors take the elevators to the top of the tower for a better view of Paris.

Gustave Eiffel chose iron to build the tower because “iron is very strong”. Iron is twenty times stronger than stone. Because of iron, the Eiffel Tower grows in summer and shrinks in winter. Once on a hot day, the iron expanded(膨胀) so much that the tower rose by 17cm.

The Eiffel Tower is open every day. Since 1889, over 230 million people have visited it.

(    )1. The Eiffel Tower is made of ________.

    A. iron   B. wood   C. stone   D. earth

(    )2. How long did it take to build the tower?

    A. One month.  B. One year.  C. 26 months.  D. More than three years.

(    )3. Why do people call the tower Eiffel Tower?

A. Because it is in Paris.    B. Because it is by the River Seine.

C. Because it is very famous.   D. Because its designer is called Eiffel.

(    )4. What does “shrink” in paragraph(自然段) 5 probably mean?

    A. 膨胀   B. 收缩   C. 出现   D. 消失

(    )5. Which is NOT true about the Eiffel Tower?

A. It is the symbol of Paris.    

B. If there is strong wind, the tower may sway slightly.

    C. There was no elevator in the tower until 1998.
