题目内容

　　I used to dream about Pisa when I was a boy. I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa（比萨斜塔）. 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 Leaning Tower. I knew then it was Pisa and 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（整修）it. They are afraid it may fall over and they do not like the way it looks.

　　I do not think it's 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 the way it looks. I like the way it leans over the city. To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect（完美）, it seems to say.

　　And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect things may be more interesting. Let's 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.

As we all know, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places we can’t see fish 　 46 in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean waster to drink.

　　 Recently, a new lifestyle called low-carbon life(低碳生活) is 　 47　 every corner of our country. The meanings of low-carbon are 　 48　 energy and no waste. It is such an important project that I can’t wait 　 49　 my ideas on how to promote( 促进、发扬) it.

　　 First, we should 　 50　 a no-car day every week in our school. Because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy. 　 51　 the no-car day, neither students 　 52　 teachers are allowed to drive to school. At the same time, just walk or run. Use our 　 53　 and enjoy the fun.

　　 Second, we had better not use plastic bags 　 54　 . No one can stand the “white pollution”, 　 55　 it is wise to use cloth bags which can 　 56　 again and again.

　　 57　 , one thing 　 58　 we should keep in mind is that every big thing comes from the small details(细目、细节). So, as students, we ought to turn 　 59　 the lights the moment we leave, use 　 60　 sides of the paper, and reuse our textbooks and so on.

　　 All in all, it weights greatly for all of us to put the low-carbon lifestyle into practice. Just set our mind to these: no-car days, no plastic bags, and no waste. Let’s do it now.

With a determined(坚定的) look on his face, Chicago’s Michael McCarthy held on to the banister(扶手) and climbed to the top of the Willis Tower not long ago. The Tower stands 1,451 feet tall, the 41 building in the US.
　　As he got to the last step, McCarthy 42 fell down, but that didn’t stop him. The 14-year-old boy finally finished climbing the 2,109 steps and arrived at the top, where he 43 cheers from many people.
　　“I just want to show people that 44 a kid with no legs can do it, anyone can do it,” McCarthy said.
