On May 1,2006,New York's Empire State Building celebrated its 75th birthday.When it was built in 1931 it was over 61 m taller than its nearest rival,the Chrysler Building,and at 381m remained the tallest in the world for 41 years,until the World Trade Center was completed in 1972- 1973.The story of the Empire State Building begins with two men's race to build the highest man-made structure in the world.
In 1889 the central feature of the World's Fair in Pairs was Gustav Eiffel's massive tower,constructed with wrought iron,and standing 300m high.Architects in the United States viewed this as something of a challenge,and by the early 20th century the race was on to erect taller buildings than ever before.Soon skyscrapers were springing up along the New York sky-line.In 1928 the founder of the Chrysler Corporation,Walter Chrysler,announced the building of a huge new skyscraper,taller than anything so far constructed in New York.It soon became clear that the new building was part of Chrysler's aim to challenge the motoring giant General Motors.So John Jakob Raskob,of General Motors,decided to race Chrysler to the top.The final height of Chrysler's building was kept secret until it was completed,so Raskob instructed his architects to construct the highest tower they could.Their architectural plans had to be modified as the Chrysler Building grew ever higher,but when it topped 77 stories the Empire State Building team knew that they could beat it.
No building project has yet exceeded the Empire State Building's record for speed of construclion.From the beginning of construction in March 1930 it took 410 days and approximately 7 million man-hours to build.It rose at an astonishing speed of 4.5 stories per week,thanks to careful planning and quality of work.The building was officially opened on May 1,1931,by President Hoover.
选项
Even the World Trade Center can not compete with the New York's Empire State Building with its height.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned
答案
B
解析
文章第一段告诉我们,帝国大厦有381米高,比克莱斯勒大厦高61米。因此克莱斯勒大厦大约有320米高,这句话是正确的。
第一段提到在世贸大厦建成之前,帝国大厦一直是最高的。所以本句的表述是错误的。
文章第二段提到“美国的建筑师见到埃菲尔铁塔就觉得这是一种挑战,于是20世纪早期一场建造史上最高建筑的比赛开始了”,因此该句的表述是正确的。
文章中仅仅提到克莱斯勒公司建成了克莱斯勒大厦,通用汽车公司建成了帝国大厦,并没有提及世贸大厦是谁建成的。因此选项C是正确的。
文章第二段告诉我们帝国大厦是通用汽车公司为了与克莱斯勒公司竞争而建成的,因此本句表述是正确的。
第一三段第二句作者告诉我们整个工程前后耗时410天,因此该句表述是错误的。
文章并未提及美国9 ·11恐怖袭击事件对帝国大厦的影响,因此选项C 是正确的。
