We all know w hat the solution was-the elevator Elisha Otis invented the elevator and first showed it to the public in 1853 By the 1880s, there w ere elevators run by electricity which were fast and light enough to use in skyscrapers T hey were developed ju st at the right time There were other problem s that architects and engineers w ho built high-rise buildings had to solve T hey had to figure out a way to get w ater to all the floors They had to prevent the buildings from m oving in the wind In a d d it io n , they wanted to make them as beautiful as possible At the time that architects first started designing and building high-rise buildings, thousands o f imm igrants were entering the United States from Europe They all needed a place to live Cities were growing fast, and tall buildings meant many more people could live in a small area, so people started building skyscrapers in cities across the United states O ver the years, the problems connected with high-rise buildings were solved Buildings got taller and taller In 1909, a 50-story building was built in N ew York, and in 1913, one with 60 floors In 1931, the Empire State Building in New York was finished; it was 102 stories high This was the tallest building in the world until 1970, w hen the W orld Trade C enter was built, again in N ew York It has 110 floors Then the Sears Building w as built in C hicago in 1974 It also has 110 stories, but it is taller than the W orld T rade Center Other countries w ere building skyscrapers too In Europe, the center o f m any cities was destroyed by bom bs during elevator (n): develop (v) solve (v) In addition (adv) im m igrants (n) connect (v) destroy (v) rebuild (v) 134 ['eliveite] [di'velopj [solv] [e'di/n] f'im igrent] [ke'nckt] [di'stro] [’ri:'bilt] thang m ay plidt trie’ll giai quyet va, them vao ngU&i nlidp cif lien quan t&i phd huy tdi thiet and A M I S H M A S H (A HODGEPODGE) World War II The city planners rebuilt many of the buildings exactly as they had been In addition, they included high-rises in their plans Most European cities today are a mixture o f old and modern buildings Tokyo did not have tall buildings for a long movements of the earth time because o f e a r t h q u a k e s Then engineers figured out how to keep a high-rise standing during an earthquake Today there are many tall buildings in Tokyo In fact, there are tall buildings in cities throughout the world As the population o f cities increases, the number o f high-rises increases because they take less surface space And what about the future? Architects say there is no limit to the height a building can be An engineer in N ew York is designing a 150floor building An architect in Chicago has drawings o f a 210-story building We have the technology for these buildings, but we need them or want them? With the invention o f computers, a company doesn't need to have all its offices in one huge building, exchange information People can c o m m u n ic a t e by computer from offices spread out all over the city, or even from their homes And we want 200-story buildings? Do people want to work and live that far above the ground?
