The Eiffel Tower is one of European most famous buildings. It 　1　 in a park near the River Seine in Paris. It is 300 meters tall. It was designed and 　 2　 by Alexandre Gustave Eiffel many years ago for Paris Universal Exposition.

“Universal” here means “ of the whole world”, and “exposition” is a place where new 　 3　 , new kinds of art and new kinds of the food are displayed.

Eiffel hoped that people could go to the top of the tower 　 4　 , so he asked Elisha Otis to design an elevator. Unfortunately, the 　5　 　government did not like the first design 　 6　 Otis showed them, and they would not let him put the elevator in. In early 1889, the first visitor had to climb hundreds of stairs　 7　 to the top.

It’s interesting that Eiffel 　 8　 lived in the tower where he had his own apartment. Although Eiffel designed the tower for people to visit, it was also for 　9　 use. Now, the tower gets much more 　 10 　than another famous building-the Louvre(卢浮宫).
