The 187-ft-tall Twer f Pisa is famus all ver the wrld mainly because it leans（倾斜）. Fr many years, peple believed that the twer’s designer intended it t lean. As it turns ut, thugh, the twer’s lean is an accident caused by pr planning. The Twer f Pisa was cnstructed （建造）n a riverbed f sand and clay（黏土）that was nt strng enugh t supprt a building s tall and heavy.
Cnstructin f the twer began in 1173. Because Pisa experienced several wars, the twer wasn’t cmpleted until 1350. Only a few years after the cnstructin started, peple culd see that the first three flrs f the twer were already leaning. As the next three flrs were added, builders purpsefully built them with ne side higher than the ther t try t crrect the lean. This resulted in the twer leaning in the ppsite directin.
Frtunately fr the peple f Pisa, the lng delays（耽搁）during cnstructin gave the structure time t settle and the grund t becme cmpacted （结实的）。 This made the fundatin（地基）strnger ver time, which is the main reasn why the twer never fell ver. Fr hundreds f years, the twer was indeed falling. It wuld lean ne mre inch abut every 20 years. In the end, in 1990, it was clsed t the public fr fear that a large grup f peple at the tp wuld weigh enugh t make it fall dwn.
Frm 1990 t 2001, engineers frm arund the wrld helped balance the twer. After several unsuccessful attempts at a slutin, engineers finally came up with a plan that wrked. They slwly remved grund under the high side f the twer. When they had finished, they had returned it t the psitin it held in abut 1838 — the twer had been straightened by nearly 16 inches. Except a sudden great disaster, such as an earthquake, engineers believe the twer is safe fr anther 300 years nw.
12. What des the authr try t explain abut the Twer f Pisa in Paragraph 1?
A. Why it leans. B. Why it was built.
C. Why it is famus. D. Why it stpped leaning.
13. What can we learn abut the Twer f Pisa?
A. It was cmpleted in 1173. B. It began t be built in 1350.
C. It was seen leaning after 1173. D. It was repaired every 20 years.
14. What kept the Twer f Pisa frm falling dwn accrding t Paragraph 3?
A. The special structure. B. The timely prtectin.
C. The skill f the builders. D. The lngtime f building.
15. What wuld be the best title fr the text?
A. When des the Twer f Pisa lean?
B. Is the leaning Twer f Pisa falling?
C. When was the leaning Twer f Pisa built?
D. Hw did the leaning Twer f Pisa get its name?
