分析 这篇阅读理解主要介绍了法国的埃菲尔铁塔，由一开始的不被关注到后来的举世闻名，以及去该铁塔参观的售票情况．
解答 21．C 细节理解题，由文章首段第一句可知，埃菲尔铁塔是在1887年开始建立的而不是完成，所以A错误，第一段第二句可知许多名人一开始都反对这座丑陋的铁塔，所以B错误，the tower can bring more than 1.5billion euros to Paris annually这段话可知C选项正确，D选项与B原因差不多，故选C
22．C 逻辑判断题，根据tickets这一段我们不难看出，先走楼梯到2楼需要5块，再从二楼上剩电梯到顶楼需要6块，总共需要11元，故选C
23．A 细节理解题，根During the rest of the year，the lifts open from 9：30-23：00and the stairs open from 9：30-18：30．可看出，想晚上看铁塔得坐电梯上顶楼，故选A．
