问题     徐霞客是明朝著名的地理学家(geographer)、旅行家和探险家。他一生周游考察了16个省,足迹几乎遍及全国。他在考察的过程中,从来不盲目迷信书本上的结论。相反,他发现前人研究地理的记载有许多不很可靠的地方。为了进行真实细致的考察,他几乎全靠双脚旅行。为了弄清大自然的真相,他总是挑选道路艰险的山区,人烟稀少的(sparsely populated)森林进行考察,发现了许多美丽的山川风景。此外,他常常选择不同的时间和季节,多次重游各地名山,反复观察变幻的奇景。

选项

答案 Xu Xiake was a famous geographer, traveler, and explorer in Ming Dynasty. During his lifetime, Xu Xiake traveled around and conducted surveys in 16 provinces, leaving his footsteps in virtually every part of the country. In the process of conducting his surveys and investigations, he would never blindly embrace the conclusions recorded in previous documents. Instead, he discovered that the documentations made by his predecessors in their geographical studies were not quite reliable in many aspects. In order to ensure that his reconnaissance was real and detailed, he traveled entirely on foot. In order to develop a true picture of the natural world, he made it a point of undertaking his expeditions in those mountain areas where roads were difficult to travel and in those woods that were sparsely populated. In this way he discovered many marvelous mountains and beautiful scenes. Moreover, he frequently chose different times and seasons of the year to make repeated visits to the famous mountains across the country so that he could make repeated observations of their wonderful scenery that kept changing all year round.
