Read the text bellow very carefully.
Paris’s architectural spirit resides in the elegant streets and boulevards begun in the nineteenth century under Baron Haussmann. The mansion blocks that line them are at once grand and perfectly human in scale, a triumph in city planning proved by the fact that so many remain residential to this day. Rising above these harmonious buildings are the more arrogant monuments that define the French capital. For centuries, an imposing Classical style prevailed with great set pieces such as the the Louvre, Panthéon and Arc de Triomphe, but the last hundred years or so has seen the architectural mould repeatedly broken in a succession of ambitious structures, the industrial chic of the Eiffel Tower and Pompidou Centre contrasting with the almost spiritual glasswork of the Louvre Pyramide and Institut du Monde Arabe. Paris is remarkable, too, for its museums – there are more than 150 of them, ranging from giants of the art world such as the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay and Pompidou Centre to lesser-known gems such as the Picasso, Rodin and Jewish museums – and the diversity of entertainment, from cinema to jazz music, on offer.

We live in a world of international regimes. Some of them deal with monetary issues (for example, the Bretton Woods system and its successors); others govern international trades in commodities (for example, the coffee agreement). Some regimes serve to direct the use of natural resources at the international level (for example, the international arrangements for whaling) or to advance the cause of conservation (for example, the agreement on polar bears). Still other regimes address problems pertaining to the control of armaments at the international level (for example, the nuclear nonproliferation regime) or the management of power in international society (for example, the neutralization agreement for Switzerland). And there are some international regimes that encompass several issues within well defined geographical areas (for example, the Svalbard regime and the Antarctic Treaty System). (In: YOUNG, Oran R.
