Question with ToExpression

Dear Group,

I am trying to make an expression of 1.0 with ToExpression.
But if I use it, ToExpression[1.0], the output is 1. instead of 1.0
In[1]:= ToExpression["1.0"]
Out[1]= 1.

Or

In[2]:= ToExpression[1.0]

Out[2]= 1.

Is there  any way to make it possible to make the output as 1.0 not
1.?

Thanks!
