Everyone knows this leaning tower but how about this one?
Experts say the famous London landmark could go the same way as the iconic Italian monument.(紀念碑,紀念塔)
Cracks(裂縫) have been spotted(發現) in the walls of the Parliament building; recent construction(工程) work may have caused(造成) subsidence(下陷).
But time is on its side(好加在時間站在我們這一邊) as the tower won't tilt(傾斜) as much as Pisa's for at least 10,000 years.
