That the Leaning Tower of Pisa no longer leans quite so much after a ￡20 million project to save it has proved to be a great success.The tower, which was on the edge of collapse, has been straightened by 18 inches, returning it to its 1838 position.

“It has straightened a little bit more than we expected, but very little helps, ”said Prof.John Burland, the only British member of the rescue committee.“The tower is still very slightly moving towards being upright. ”
The tower, which has been leaning almost since building work first began in 1173, was closed to the public in 1990 because of safety fears.The 183?foot tower was nearly 15 feet off vertical and its structure was found to have been weakened by centuries of strain(作用力).
Prof.Burland said it could have collapsed “at any moment”．However, it took nine years of quarreling before any work was done.The last attempt at straightening the tower was carried out. Concrete was poured into the foundations, but the result was that the tower sank further into the soil.
The straightening work involved digging out around 70 tonnes of earth from the northern side of the tower, causing it to sink on that side.Before the digging started, the tower was fixed with steel ropes and 600 tonnes of lead weights.
However, halfway through the project, concerns at the ugliness of the weights led to their removal and the tower leaned greatly.The weights were hurriedly reattached. In one night, the tower moved more than it had averaged in an entire year.The tower's stonework has also been restored.
The Italian government stepped in after a tower collapsed in Pavia in 1989, killing four people.Experts suddenly realized that the tower at Pisa, which was similarly built and on the same sort of earth, could do the same.
小題1:What would be the best title for the passage?
A．The Building of the Leaning Tower of Pisa
B．Saving the Leaning Tower of Pisa
C．The Collapse of the Leaning Tower of Pisa
D．The History of the Leaning Tower of Pisa
小題2:According to the passage, the Leaning Tower of Pisa_________________.
A．closed for the straightening work in 1990
B．began to lean more than 800 years ago
C．has a history of more than 1, 000 years
D．has become vertical
小題3:What drove the Italian government to save the Leaning Tower of Pisa?
A．The development of new technology.
B．The advice of Prof. John Burland.
C．The expectation of the rescue committee.
D．The collapse of a tower in Pavia.
小題4:What most probably played the most important part in straightening the tower?
A．The lead weights fixed to the tower.
B．Restoring the stonework.
C．Pouring concrete into the foundations.
D．Digging earth from the southern side of the tower.

Something that makes sense is happening in Washington, D.C! Public school kids surrounded by museums and monuments are putting the ready-made learning tools to use — and actually learning. 
A trip to see painter Jacob Lawrence’s Migration Series is one of almost 200 trips that Wheelock will organize this year through the nonprofit group Live It Learn It. “For many kids, school is disconnected,” says one of four full-time workers and tour leaders. “With the program, they see how what they are learning is connected to their communities.”
Seven years ago, Wheelock changed a job as a lawyer for one as a four-grade teacher. When he learned that D.C.’s public schools ranked behind those of other cities in many ways, he knew he had to do something different. He took his class to Capitol Hill for a lesson on the three branches of government — and saw his students’ interest develop quickly.
With seed money from a local couple, Wheelock developed detailed lesson plans for trips to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Lincoln Memorial. The group also has classes for trips to the Anacostia River, boat rides to historical forts. Word spread, and now fourth, fifth, sixth graders from the neediest public schools in the District participate.
“I’m not brave enough to take my class to a museum for over an hour!” says teacher Cathy McCoy, gesturing toward her students. “But look With Live It Learn It, what the kids learn today they’ll remember for a lifetime.”
小題1:Matthew Wheelock once had an occupation as a _______.
A．teacherB．printerC．leaderD．lawyer
小題2:According to the first two paragraphs, public school kids in Washington D.C. _______.
A. like to have school disconnected
B. are warmly welcomed by museums and monuments
C. are making the resources at hand available
D. are learning by going to different communities
小題3:Matthew Wheelock started the new change for the reason that _______.
A. he saw his students’ interest develop quickly
B. more graders from the neediest public schools wanted to participate  
C. D.C.’s public schools ranked behind in many ways
D. a local couple sponsored him a sum of seed money
小題4:What will the lessons be like with Live It Learn It in Cathy McCoy’s opinion?
A．Eye-catching.B．Challenging.C．Forgettable.D．Impressive.
