（2）细节查找。根据The Colosseum in Rome(古罗马圆形大剧场) was opened in 80 A. D. . 可知圆形大剧场开创于公元80年。
（3）细节查找。题意：法国人民给美国什么作为礼物？根据It was a gift to Americans from French people.可知答案在第三幅图的叙述中，it指的是前一句中的The Statue of Liberty——自由女神像。
（4）细节查找。题意：埃菲尔铁塔为什么被建？根据第四幅图的文字说明：It was built for the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution（法国大革命）.可以判断答案是It was built for the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution。
