Taj Mahal(泰姬陵), India
【B1】______Faith and vanity, throughout the centuries, have often been the qualities that have inspired men to build. The majestic(宏伟壮丽的)TaiMahal, however, is a notable exception. The famous domed(穹顶)building is a memorial to the deep love of Shah Jahan, the fifth King of the Mogul empire, for a cherished wife, who died in childbirth.
【B2】______ Indeed, since its construction in the mid-17th century, the shimmering monument of white marble, set among peaceful gardens and pools, has attracted many tourists and pilgrims(朝圣者). Visitors are as moved by the many legends surrounding its creation as they are interested by its serene elegance...
【B3】______ Begun in 1631, the mausoleum(陵墓)took some 20,000 workmen 22 years to build at a cost of 40 million rupees.
【B4】______Shah Hahan was apparently so pleased with the elegant mausoleum that he beheaded his chief architect, cut off the hands of the architect’s assistants, and blinded the draftsmen, so that they would never be able to create a building better than it.
【B5】______A harmonious complex of the architecture of Persia, India, and central Asia, it combines, for example, the traditional design of Mogul gardens with the characteristically Indian use of towers, and a dominant dome. The placement of a dome over an arched alcove(凉亭)is a characteristic of Persian architecture, successfully adapted in the Taj Mahal to a Mogul design. Questions 61—65
Complete the article with the following sentences. There are two extra sentences that you do not need to use.
A. It is a balanced and symmetric grouping of buildings.
B. Love moves mountains, according to the proverb, but rarely does it provide work for the architect.
C. Taj Mahal is a perfect combination of Persian, Indian and central Asian architecture.
D. It is probable that the Taj Mahal was not the work of a single master at all but the great efforts of many artists and craftsmen from all over Asia.
E. Nowadays more and more tourists come to visit this momentous building.
F. However, the two legends are in line with each other in one detail.
G. According to legend, the queen’s last wish was that the King build a monument so beautiful that whoever saw it could not help but sense their deep love.
【B1】
选项
答案
B
解析
本段提到“大多数建筑物都是出于人的信仰或者虚荣心,而泰姬陵是个例外,它是沙贾汗为妻子修建的,代表了二人的爱情”。B项说“‘爱能移山’这一谚语很少用于建筑物这种场合”。符合逻辑关系。故选B。
