Welcome to the Eiffel Tower! It was built by Gustave Eiffel, a famous French engineer．The Tower was finished in 1889．It is made of iron．There are about 18, 000 different parts altogether．The height of the Tower is 320 metres．It is still the highest building in Paris．
At first, some people did not like the Tower．They said that it was very ugly．But after a few years, it became very popular．The Tower has lifts which go up to the top．There is a very good view of Paris from there．On a clear day, you can see for more than 30 miles．If you don't want to go by lift, you can walk up the steps, but remember that there are 1, 792 steps up to the top．
The Tower is repainted every seven years．It is brown in colour．About 45 tonnes of paint are needed to repaint it．Some amazing things have happened to the Eiffel Tower over the years．Once, an elephant walked up to the first level．A man has cycled down all the steps．And in 1984, tow people jumped off the top, and used parachutes to get down safely．

Balzac was a famous French novelist. One day he found a very beautiful vase while shopping. He loved
it a lot,but the price was too high,400 francs.
“Could you sell it at 200 francs？”Balzac wanted to cut down the price.
“No,”the shopkeeper answered.
Balzac left without any word. He went back home and asked several friends to
help him. They worked out a plan. Balzac hoped it would work.
The next day,one of his friends went to the shop and asked for the vase at 300 francs. The shopkeeper didn't answer.
Shortly after the first one,the second friend went and asked for it at 250. Theshopkeeper shook his head. And so on,the third for 200,the fourth for 150. The fifth for 100 ! My God ! It was too low !
