Every guidebook would introduce some must-see tourist attractions. However, some of the most famous sites can also be the most disappointing. The 1. top (顶部的) spots on the list of disappointing tourist attractions, according to tourists' votes, are taken by these sites:
Eiffel Tower
Called the “Iron Lady”, the Eiffel Tower is exactly one of the most famous symbols of France. Built in 1889, the Eiffel Tower is the tallest 2. building (建筑) in Paris and one of the most visited tourist attractions in the world, attracting about seven million tourists a year, and 75% of them being foreigners. But hours of waiting in line to go up the tower 3. alone (独自一人) is frustrating enough to kill the pleasure for even the most enthusiastic(狂热的) tourist. And the ticket is overpriced, tourists say.
The Louvre's Mona Lisa
When Leonardo da Vinci painted the portrait of a shy-looking 4. smiling (微笑的) woman in the 16th century, he must have had no idea about what sufferings people in the 21st century would have to undergo to see the painting. 5. No (没有) tourist to Paris would want to miss the Mona Lisa, displayed at the magnificent Louvre in Paris. As a result, the room where the painting is exhibited is usually 6. completely (完全的) crowded, making it difficult to even get a glimpse of the famous painting.
Statue of Liberty
The Statue of Liberty is an ordinary monument(纪念碑), at least when it is 7. closed (关闭的) for extensive repairs related to safety measures. During these times, tourists can 8. reach (到达) the island of freedom but are not allowed to climb into the crown. The repairs, costing about 28 9. million (百万), were completed for the 126th anniversary of its opening on October 28th, 2012. Until then, tourists could only take some pictures at the base of the statue but the statue itself may 10. remain (保留) outside their visit.

答案： 1. top 2. building 3. alone 4. smiling 5. No 6. completely 7. closed 8. reach 9. million 10. remain
