The Eiffel Tower

The Eiffel Tower is an iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris. Built in
1889, it has become both a global icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures
in the world. The tower is the tallest building in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in
the world; millions of people ascend it every year. Named for its designer, engineer Gustave
Eiffel, the tower was built as the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair.

The tower stands 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-story building.
Upon its completion, it surpassed the Washington Monument to assume the title of tallest
man-made structure in the world, a title it held for 41 years, until the Chrysler Building in
New York City was built in 1930; however, due to the addition in 1957 of the antenna, the
tower is now taller than the Chrysler Building. Not including broadcast antennas, it is the
second-tallest structure in France after the 2004 Millau Viaduct.

The tower has three levels for visitors. Tickets can be purchased to ascend, by stairs or lift,
to the first and second levels. The walk to the first level is over 300 steps, as is the walk from
the first to the second level. The third and highest level is accessible only by elevator. Both
the first and second levels feature restaurants.

The tower has become the most prominent symbol of both Paris and France, often in the
establishing shot of films set in the city.

My cat zedva

Zedva is my beautiful gray Persian cat. He walks with pride and grace, performing a dance
of disdain as he slowly lifts and lowers each paw with the delicacy of a ballet dancer. His
pride, however, does not extend to his appearance, for he spends most of his time indoors
watching television and growing fat.

He enjoys movie in Television , especially chanel those for vichanel and cinemas 24. almost
every day of my cat zedva Always watch television, after the feed and Sometimes he ate
while watching television.

Zedva is as finicky about visitors as he is about what he eats, befriending some and
repelling others. He may snuggle up against your ankle, begging to be petted, or he may
imitate a skunk and stain your favorite trousers. Zedva does not do this to establish his
territory, as many cat experts think, but to humiliate me because he is jealous of my friends.

After my guests have fled, I look at the old fleabag snoozing and smiling to himself in front
of the television set, and I have to forgive him for his obnoxious, but endearing, habits.
Mobile Phone

A mobile phone (also known as a wireless phone, or cellular telephone) is a very small
portable radio telephone.

The mobile phone can be used to communicate over long distances without wires. It works by
communicating with a nearby base station (also called a "cell site") which connects it to the
main phone network. As the mobile phone moves around, if the mobile phone gets too far
away from the cell it is connected to, that cell sends a message to another cell to tell the new
cell to take over the call. This is called a "hand off," and the call continues with the new cell
the phone is connected to. The hand-off is done so well and carefully that the user will
usually never even know that the call was transferred to another cell.

As mobile phones became more popular, they began to cost less money, and more people
could afford them. Monthly plans became available for rates as low as US$30 or US$40 a
month. Cell phones have become so cheap to own that they have mostly replaced pay phones
and phone booths except for urban areas with many people.
Country

A country is a region that is identified as a distinct entity in political geography. A country


may be an independent sovereign state or one that is occupied by another state, as a non-
sovereign or formerly sovereign political division, or a geographic region associated with sets
of previously independent or differently associated people with distinct political
characteristics. Regardless of the physical geography, in the modern internationally accepted
legal definition as defined by the League of Nations in 1937 and reaffirmed by the United
Nations in 1945, a resident of a country is subject to the independent exercise of legal
jurisdiction.

Sometimes the word countries is used to refer both to sovereign states and to other political
entities, while other times it refers only to states. For example, the CIA World Factbook uses
the word in its "Country name" field to refer to "a wide variety of dependencies, areas of
special sovereignty, uninhabited islands, and other entities in addition to the traditional
countries or independent states".
