The Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) is a love story, a sad and beautiful one. If it didn’t exist, we would easily imagine that the story of its construction was simply a fairy tale. Three hundred years ago, there lived an Indian emperor called Shah Jahan. His wife was a beautiful and bright woman whom he loved greatly. Her title was Mumtazl Mahan: its shortened form Taj Mahal, means “pride of the palace”. In the year 1630 this beloved wife of the emperor died. He was so brokenhearted that he thought of giving up his throne(皇位). Out of his love for his wife, he decided to build her the most beautiful tomb that had ever been seen.
He summoned（召集）the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was complete. It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.
The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 meters square and 6-7 meters high. Towers rise from each of the four corners. The Taj itself soars another 61 meters into the air. It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.
The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge. However his son put him into a prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across river at the tomb of his beloved wife.
1. The whole passage tells us about ______.
A . a beautiful fairy tale
B. the story of the Taj Mahal
C. white and black marble tombs made for two emperors
D. the love story of Emperor Shah Jahan and his wife
2.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the Taj Mahal?
A. It was completed quickly owing to the efforts of the best artists and workers.
B. A lot of people took part in the building work
C. It is a magnificent building.
D. It is a tomb for the emperor’s beloved wife.
3.The emperor’s own tomb was designed to be ____________.
A. 61 meters high B. eight-sided
C. black-colored D. white-colored
4.The emperor _____________.
A. died soon after Taj Mahal died
B. was killed by his son
C. was beloved by his people
D. died after 1648

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Some people go through life positively. 1. Luckily, you can learn to become positive. If you become more positive, things will become brighter day by day. It’s not because things are any better, but because how you look at them will change. Here are a few things positive people do differently.
They find something to look forward to every day. Whether it’s catching up on a favorite TV show, trying out a new dessert recipe, or having a phone conversation with a friend in another town, these things don’t have to be big. 2. .
3. Joy isn’t so hard to find. You can even find joy in the tiniest things — a funny text from a friend or a beautiful sunny day — because it adds up. Soon, you won’t have to stop and smell the roses because you’ll be smelling them all the time. So learn to enjoy the small things in your life.
They stay busy. Being busy doesn’t mean living under much stress. 4. It means having something to look forward to every day. Start a hobby. Fill your weekends with your hobby. Remember, living your life to the fullest is up to you.
5. When in doubt, choose kindness. Positive people look on the bright side, sure, but they also tend to pay it forward by passing on their positive energy to others. Giving is generous, but it also makes the giver feel even better. Now that’s a win-win. Be kind to others and others will treat you in the same way. And your days will be much better.
A. It means filling your life with good activities.
B. They celebrate small things.
C. They are kind.
D. They do something for fun.
E. Kindness is most important.
F. Having activities to expect will make you happy every day.
G. But not all of us were born to be positive.
