 　　法国新闻社:巴黎埃菲尔铁塔一层改造工程告一段落,今天,一层台塔完工剪彩将如期举行.改装后的一层地板和围栏全部是玻璃结构,设计师在离地面57米高的一层安装巨大的观看托架,在支柱间的内侧通道上安装的玻璃地板完全给参观者一种在空中行走的感觉.

　　埃菲尔铁塔也整玻璃地板
　　AFP: A much-anticipated facelift of the Eiffel Tower is scheduled to be unveiled Monday with a new glass floor to dizzy the millions of tourists who flock to Paris's best-known landmark1 every year.
　　Its owners hope the formerly2 dowdy3 and draughty first floor will become as big an attraction as the viewing platform on top of the 325-metretower -- the most visited paying monument in the world.
　　Visitors will be able to look down through a solid glass floor to the 57 square metres below, with transparent4 and eco-friendly pavilions built around the tower's enormous central void.
