                      ★★★★☆

   Most buildings are built to stand up straight,but these look as if they might fall over!

The church tower of Suurhusen 

      Built in 1450,the 27-metre-high church tower lies in Suurhusen,Germany. It was built in wet land on foundations of oak tree (樹千) .When the land was drained(排水) later,the wood broke down,causing one side of the tower to be a little lower than the other. In 1975,the tower became a real hazard and people were not allowed to enter until the foundations were made strong again. The /eaw (傾斜) of the tower is now about five degrees.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa

     The work of building the tower began in 1173,and was finally completed in 1372. In fact,it began to lean after just a couple of floors were built. And this condition continued in the centuries after its completion. The tower was finally closed to the public in 1990 after people fajled to stabilize(使穩(wěn)固) its foundations. In 2001,it was reopened after engineers repioved soil from underneath its raised side. Now it leans just an angle of 3. 97 degrees.

Capital Gate of Abu Dhabi

   Completed in 2011,the Capital Gate tower in Abu Dhabi was designed to lean eighteen degrees. The building stands next to the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre and contains,among other things,a fine hotel with wonderful views of the harbour. Also known as the leaning tower of Abu Dhabi,the tower is one of the tallest buildings in the city.

Big Ben of London

 T   he building leans 0. 26 degrees to the northwest. This was mainly caused by the engineering projects(項(xiàng)目) that have been carried out in the ground below it since the late 1800s. The tower,which has been continuously open since it was completed in 1858,has nowhere near the lean of the Tower of Pisa and is still completely safe to enter.

32. The underlined word “hazard” in Paragraph 2

probably me?ns “”.

   A. danger        B. church

    C. castle        D. treasure

33. What can we learn about the Leaning Tower of Pisa?

   A. It didnn't lean until ten years after its completion.

   B. It took almost two hundred years to complete.

    C. It was built on foundations of oak tree trunks.

   D. It has been open since it was completed.

   B. The Leaning Tower of Pisa,

    C. Capital Gate of Abu Dhabi.
