I read about the 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 place to buy pizza in the world, I thought. Many years later I finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa and no pizza. But there was still something special about it for me. The tower got its name because it really did lean ( 倾斜 ) to one side. Some people want to try to fix it. They are afraid it may fall over and they dont like it leans over the city. I do not think its a good idea to try to fix it. The tower probably will not fall down It is 600 years old. Why should anything happen to it now? And, if you ask me, I like what it looks like . To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect（完美的）. It seems to say. And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect thing may be more interesting. Lets take the tower in Pisa. Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa tower is the most famous. People come from all over the world to see it. ( ) 31 This passage is about _. A Italian pizza. B Italys problems C How the Leaning Tower of Pisa got its name D Why the writer likes Pisa( ) 32 The writer thought Pisa _ before. A in Spain B not very famous C not pizza D the same as pizza( ) 33 The Leaning Tower of Pisa is _ A modern B falling down C 600 meters tall D very old ( ) 34 The writer _. A doesnt like what the tower looks like B likes what the tower looks like C thinks its the most beautiful tower in Italy D doesnt like towers ( ) 35 The writer likes the Leaning Tower of Pisa because _. A its old B its perfect C is sells pizza D its not perfect ( B ) We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was full of flowers inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf.It stood outside a furniture（家具）shop. “Buy it,” she said at once. “Well carry it home on the roof-rack（车顶架）. Ive always wanted one like that.”What could I do? Ten minutes later I was twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof rack. It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too.As it was getting darker, I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.After a time my wife said, “Theres a long line of cars behind. Why dont they overtake（超车）?”Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers（警官）inside looked at us seriously when they went past. But then, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.“Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help now?”I didnt quite understand. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “Youve been very kind. I live just down the road.”He was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. “Well, well,” he said and laughed. “Its a bookshelf youve got there! We thought it waser, something else.”My wife began to laugh. Suddenly I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, its a bookshelf, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.( ) 36 From the story we know that .A the writer was poor and didnt buy the bookshelf for his wifeB the writers wife didnt like the bookshelf at allC the writer was always glad to buy something for his wifeD the writer was not very glad to buy the bookshelf for his wife( ) 37 What made the writer think that carrying furniture was “a good idea”?A He could drive slowly and it was safe.B Other drivers would let him go first.C His wife could use a new bookshelf.D He could save a lot of money and time.( )38 Why were the police and other drivers so kind to the writer?A Because they thought the writer liked studying very much and needed a bookshelf.B Because they didnt think it was polite to overtake a car with a bookshelf on it.
