There are wonderful sights to view all around Tower Bridge, too. It is one of the most interesting parts of London.  On its south side are many tall and old buildings. They are warehouses which hold goods that is shipped to London and waiting to be sold.  On its north side stands the Tower of London itself.
    Although they look like the same age, the Tower is more than a thousand years old, and Tower Bridge is over one hundred. It was built in the 1890s. By 1850, everyone disagreed that a bridge across the Thames near the Tower was most necessary. Therefore the designers argued about the new bridge within another thirty years. They took so long because they had two big problems. The new bridge must look like the Tower--everybody said so.  It must not look like a modem bridge. But because of the tall ships, it was necessary to have a modem bridge. At last two very clever designers had the idea of an opening bridge. They made it look like the old Tower. All the tail ships can easily come and go. Everyone was so happy.

选项 A、The Tower of London.
B、The Tower Bridge in London.
C、The Thames.
D、The tall and old warehouses.

答案 B

解析 主旨题。本文介绍伦敦塔桥的故事。通过浏览选项可知,本题考的是与“讲了什么”有关的问题,听录音时要留心全文主旨。有塔才有桥,桥像塔一样古老,又得是一座现代桥,来往大小船只随意通行,人们对此争议多年。后有智者设计一座外观和年代等同伦敦塔的开合自如的现代化桥,世人皆大欢喜。本文重点叙述伦敦塔桥,不是伦敦塔。正确答案是B。
