阅读下列材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

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 felt slightly 1 (puzzle). I was thinking of pizza. I thought this tower was a place where people bought pizza. “I am sure it 2 be the best place to buy pizza in the world, isn’t it?” I thought. 3 I could go there by plane was always a question in my mind. It might be a long time later.

Many years later out of 4 (curious) I went to see the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa and no pizza. It is 5 (approximate) 54 meters high. But there was still something special about it for me. I stared 6 the tower. It got its name because it really does lean to one side. I have fun with the shape of the tower. Some people say it ought to 7 (fix). Their first 8 (react) is that they are afraid it may fall over and they don’t like it to lean over the city.

I do not think the idea that people should repair it is good. The tower probably will not fall down. It is 600 years old. Why should anything happen to it now?

And, if you ask me, I like 9 it looks like. To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect, 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 of Pisa. Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa tower is the 10 (much) famous. People come from all over the world to see it.
