第十二单元检测 (时间:100分钟　满分:120分) 第一部分　阅读理解(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A 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 that it may fall over and they don’t want it to lean 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 more than 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,as 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. 1This passage is about　　　.?
