        Back in 1994, I decided to learn Chinese-the most difficult thing I could think of to do. In 1996, my
    company was going to set up a small factory in Qingdao and of course I volunteered to work there. Of
    all the places to live and work in China, Qingdao is the best. I think.
        Qingdao is a popular tourist city for people to go for summer vacations. Its beaches can be crowded
    during the summer months. There are plenty of places you can visit in Qingdao: the old Governor's
    Mansion (总督官邸), Laoshan Mountain and Nanshan Market. The German Governor's Mansion was
    built in the late 19th century. At that time, Qingdao was a German colony (殖民地).
        The German Governor's Mansion is a famous hotel now. Laoshan Mountain is a favorite tourist spot.
    It is about an hour's drive from Qingdao. Nanshan Market is an open air market where you can find
    almost anything you want. 
       The foods in Qingdao are famous. Seafood is the most popular dish. Another traditional dish is mutton
    soup. For only one US dollar, you can get a big bowl of soup with a few pieces of mutton in it. 
       By the way, I met and married my Chinese wife while in Qingdao. I suppose I did okey with my
    Chinese lessons.

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案

    　　I often dreamed about Pisa when I was a boy. 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 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 it. They are afraid it may fall over and they don’t like it leans over the city.

    　　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 what it looks like. To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect, 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.
