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 no pizza. But there was still something special about it for me .The tower got its name because it really did lean to one side. Some people want to try to fix it.

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.

When you walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see people walking dogs. It is still true that a dog is one of the most u 69 and faithful (忠实的) animals in the world, but the reasons why people keep dogs have c 70 .
In the past people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks by o 71
animals. And later they came to realize that dogs were also willing to obey their masters. For example, when people used dogs for h 72 , the dogs would not eat what was caught without their masters' permission(允许).
But now why do people keep dogs The most important reason is for companionship(交谊). For a child, a dog can be a best friend if he or she has no friends to p 73 with. For couples, a dog can be like a child if they have no children. For old couples, a dog can be their child when their r 74 children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs now is for friendship.

The rich man was quiet and said, “You are right, my good man. We should do some things for the people after us. Thank you very much.” Then he rode away.

Nearly all high schools have sports teams. Also students usually get their first job when they are in high school, though the jobs aren’t very good. For example, a lot of students work at fast food restaurants. In American high schools, fashion seems very important. If you don’t have the newest and coolest clothes than those children who certainly already have them, they will think you are not cool.
