The Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) is considered to be one of the most beautiful buildings in the world and the finest
example of the late style of Indian architecture (建筑). It is at Agra in northern India. It lies beside the River Jumma
in the middle of gardens with quiet pools.
The Taj Mahal was built by the Mogul emperor (皇帝) Shah Jehan, who ruled India in the seventeenth century.
It is in memory of his favourite wife, Arjumand Banu Bagam, known as Mumtaz Mahal, who died in 1631. The
building, which was completed between 1632 and 1638, was designed by a local Muslim architect (建筑师), Ustad
Ahmad Lahori. The whole building, with gardens and gateway structures, was completed in 1643. The Taj Mahal
stands at one end of the garden tomb with marble (大理石) path. The room is softly lighted by the light that passes
through double screens of carved marble set high in the walls. The building now is kept in good condition.
It took 22 years to build the Taj Mahal. Shah Jehan planned a similar building, but in black instead of white, to
lie on the other side of the river. But before it could be built, Shah Jehan was imprisoned (监禁) by his son and
buried next to his wife in the Taj Mahal.

The “24 solar terms（节气）” originated and was first used in China. It was created thousands of years ago
on the basis of practical needs of agriculture. Ancient Chinese people used it to guide agriculture production,
special climate signs and even healthy living tips. In 2016, the 24 solar terms was added to UNESCO’s world
cultural heritage list. Now, it has been brought to life thanks to a creative designer from Southwest China’s Guizhou
Province.
On the eve of the Qingming Festival, Shi Changhong released（发布）his version of re-produced and
packaged characters for each solar term in the form of “moving art” of GIFs. Since their first release on Zcool on

UNESCO World Heritage Sites in
Danger of Global Warming
Some world heritage sites are in danger. The List of World Heritage in Danger is designed to inform the
international community of the condition and to encourage correct action.
1 Another one is climate change. The Great Barrier Reef and the Tower of London are among the
UNESCO world heritage sites that will be threatened by climate change in this century, according to a publication
by the UN agency.
Humancaused global warming will produce droughts and floods, resulting in rising sea levels as well as
extreme weather events over the 21st century.“The international community now widely agrees that climate change
will be one of the major challenges of the 21st century，”says the Director — General of UNESCO, Matsuura.
2
The melting of glaciers around the world is affecting the appearance of world heritage sites. Since the mid-
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂1970s, the average air temperature has risen in the Himalayan region, almost twice as fast as the global average
warming. 3 The continued melting will eventually affect the availability of life — giving water for drinking,
food production, and balance of ecosystem.
The report examines the effects of climate change on the marine world heritage sites. Seventy percent of the
world's deep sea corals are affected by changing conditions related to rising temperatures. Australia's Great Barrier
Reef was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1981. In it, corals turn white and may die due to rising sea temperatures.
4 Warming in the Great Barrier Reef areas would be in the range of 2 to 5℃ by 2100. Widespread death of corals
will become more frequent on the Australian coast in the coming decades.
5 The Tower of London is near enough to the Thames River to suffer flooding. Founded in the fifth
century and spread over 118 small islands, Venice is threatened by the sea level rise that is projected to result from
climate change. If nothing is done, Venice could be flooded one day.
A．Rapid melting of glaciers is already increasing the frequency of floods downstream.
B．Matsuura calls for an approach to issues of environmental protection and sustainable development.
C．Rising sea levels and flooding due to climate change could have an effect on both the buildings of historic
cities and settlements, according to the report.
D．As the largest coral reef ecosystem in the world, the Great Barrier Reef contains 400 species of corals，
1，500 species of fish and several thousand species of other creatures.
E．Armed conflict and war, earthquakes and other natural disasters, pollution, and unchecked tourist
development pose major problems to world heritage sites.
F．The publication of the UNESCO report follows a 2005 decision by the World Heritage Committee to start
studying the impact of climate change on world heritage sites.
G．In March 2006, 50 experts on the subject met at UNESCO and in July 2006 they presented the World
Heritage Committee with suggestions for management of climate change.

（2011·上海·高考真题）Human remains of ancient settlements will be reburied and lost to science under a
law that threatens research into the history of humans in Britain, a group of leading archeologists (考古学家) says.
In a letter addressed to the justice secretary, Ken Clarke, 40 archaeologists write of their “deep and widespread
concern” about the issue. It centers on the law introduced by the Ministry of Justice in 2008 which requires all
human remains unearthed in England and Wales to be reburied within two years, regardless of their age. The
decision means scientists have too little time to study bones and other human remains of national and cultural
significance.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂“Your current requirement that all archaeologically unearthed human remains should be reburied, whether
after a standard period of two years or further special extension, is contrary to basic principles of archaeological
and scientific research and of museum practice,” they write.
The law applies to any pieces of bone uncovered at around 400 dig including the remains of 60 or so bodies
found at Stonehenge in 2008 that date back to 3,000 BC．Archaeologists have been granted a temporary extension
to give them more time, but eventually the bones will have to he returned to the ground.
The arrangements may result in the waste of future discoveries at sites such as Happisburgh in Norfolk, where
digging is continuing after the discovery of stone tools made by early humans 950,000 years ago. If human remains
were found at Happisburgh, they would be the oldest in northern Europe and the first indication of what this species
was. Under the current practice of the law those remains would have to be reburied and effectively destroyed.
Before 2008, guidelines allowed for the proper preservation and study of bones of sufficient age and historical
interest, while the Burial Act 1857 applied to more recent remains. The Ministry of Justice assured archaeologists
two years ago that the law was temporary, but has so far failed to revise it.
Mike Parker Pearson, an archaeologist at Sheffield University, said: “Archaeologists have been extremely
patient because we were led to believe the ministry was sorting out this problem, but we feel that we cannot wait
any longer.”
The ministry has no guidelines on where or how remains should be reburied, or on what records should be
kept.
5．According to the passage, scientists are unhappy with the law mainly because .
A．it is only a temporary measure on the human remains
B．it was introduced by the government without their knowledge
C．it is unreasonable and thus destructive to scientific research
D．it is vague about where and how to rebury human remains
6．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．Temporary extension of two years will guarantee scientists enough time.
B．Human remains of the oldest species were dug out at Happisburgh.
C．Scientists have been warned that the law can hardly be changed.
D．Human remains will have to be reburied despite the extension of time.
7．What can be inferred about the British law governing human remains?
A．The Ministry of Justice has not done enough about the law.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂B．The Burial Act 1857 only applied to remains uncovered before 1857.
C．The law on human remains hasn’t changed in recent decades.
D．The Ministry of Justice did not intend it to protect human remains.
8．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A．New discoveries should be reburied, the government demands.
B．Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archeologists warn.
C．Law on human remains needs thorough discussion, authorities say.
D．Research time should be extended, scientists require.
