Ⅲ. Read the article and complete the following tasks.
London’s River Thames has 27 bridges. The most famous of all is Tower Bridge. One surprising thing about it is that it opens in the middle. It does this to let the big ships go through. If you are lucky enough to see the bridge with its two opening arms high up in the air, you will never forget it.
On its north side stands the Tower of London itself. Although they look the same, the tower is 1,000 years old, and Tower Bridge is over 100. It was built in the 1890s. By 1850, everyone agreed that a bridge across the Thames near the tower was necessary, but the designers argued about the new bridge for another 30 years, because they had two big problems to solve. The new bridge must look like the tower. Everyone said so. It must not look like a modern bridge. At last, two very clever designers had the idea of opening up the bridge in the middle and at the same time making it look like the old tower.
