Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each blank.
THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the most famous landmarks in Italy. It is a beautiful bell tower located in a large square. However, it is not famous for its beauty alone, but for its strange tilt. The tower started to lean during the years of construction. This was a big problem because the ground under the building was very soft and could not support its heavy weight.
The tower is about 56 metres high and it has many floors. It took almost 200 years to complete the whole structure because work was stopped many times by wars and problems. There is a famous story about a scientist named Galileo. People say he went to the top of the tower to an experiment. He dropped two balls of different weights to see if they would land at the same time.
By 1990, the tower had leaned so much that it was no longer strong or steady. The government decided to it to visitors for safety reasons. Experts spent many years trying to fix the foundation and make the tower stable again. After a lot of hard work, the tower became enough and reopened in 2001. Today, millions of tourists visit the tower to see its unique shape and take creative photos.

One of the biggest challenges any runner can take on is the marathon, a footrace that is just over 26 miles (42 kilometers) long. It requires both strength and strategy. Runners shouldn't start out going too quickly, or else they will become exhausted before the end. The world record for completing a marathon currently stands at two hours, four minutes.
The history of the marathon goes back to 490 BC and a battle between the ancient Greeks and Persians. The battle happened at a place called Marathon, and after several days of hard fighting, the Greeks were victorious. According to legend, a Greek messenger named Pheidippides ran from Marathon to Athens to report the good news. He covered the entire distance 26 miles without stopping.
The marathon became one of the first modern Olympic sports in 1896, and it continues to be held during the Olympics today. However, many people also participate in marathons for fun. Every year, over 500 of these races occur around the world. Some of them are so popular that tens of thousands of runners race in them together. The largest and most famous include those held in Boston, London, and New York City.
