1.C 2.C 3.A 4.B 【解析】 【原文】 I used to dream about Pisa when I was a boy. I read about a famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa. But when I read the word “Pisa”, I was thinking of pizza. I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza. It must be the best pizza in the world, I thought. Many years later, I finally saw the famous tower. I knew then that it was Pisa, not pizza. But there was still something special about it for me. The tower got its name because it really does lean to one side. Some people want to try to fix it. They are afraid it may fall over and they do not like the way it looks. I don’t think it’s a good idea to try to fix it. The tower will probably not fall down. It is more than 600 years old. Why should anything happen to it now? And, if you ask me, I like the way it looks. I like the way it leans over the city. To me, it is a very human kind of building. It seems to say that nothing is perfect. And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect things are more interesting. Take the tower in Pisa: why is it so famous? There are many older, more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa’s tower is the most famous. People come from all over the world to see it.
