I have to write a paper about the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
This is my prompt:
Some people are saying that the Tower is unsafe and should be straightened, but then it would lose its charm. Others are saying the Tower should be left alone, but it will eventually fall if something isn't done.
Which is it??
I am torn between the two. In a way I think that the tower should be left alone because it is famous for leaning. BUT the other part of me says that it should be straightened because it will fall. I have the research that proves this. In my opinion, tourists would still go and see the Leaning Tower even after it was corrected and no longer leaning...Think about it, you could see it standing straight for the first time since it has been built. People would go just to say that they saw it standing straight AND people would make plans and go before it was fixed just so they could be some of the last few to see it leaning...Does that make sense?
Please tell me what you think. Should the tower be straightened or not?
