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

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.
