问答题Practice 2Thoughts in Westminster Abbey When I am in a serious humour, I very often walk by myself in Westminster Abbey; where the gloominess of the place, and the use which it is applied, with the solemnity of the building, and the condition of the people who lie in it, are apt to fill the mind with a kind of melancholy, or rather thoughtfulness, that is not disagreeable. I yesterday passed a whole afternoon in the churchyard, the cloisters, and the church, amusing myself with the tombstones and inscriptions that I met with in those several regions of the dead. Most of them recorded nothing else of the buried person, but that he was born upon one day, and died upon another：the whole history of his life being comprehended in those two circumstances, that are common to all mankind. I could not but look upon these registers of existence, whether of brass or marble, as a kind of satire upon the departed persons；who had left no other memorial of them, but that they were born and that they died. They put me in mind of several persons mentioned in the battles of heroic poems, who have sounding names given them, for no other reason but that they may be killed, and are celebrated for nothing but being knocked on the head. The life of these men is finely described in holy writ by ‘the path of an arrow’, which is immediately closed up and lost. Upon my going into the church, I entertained myself with the digging of a grave；and saw in every shovelful of it that was thrown up, the fragment of a bone or skull intermixt with a kind of fresh mouldering earth, that some time or other had a place in the composition of a human body. Upon this I began to consider with myself what innumerable multitudes of people lay confused together under the pavement of that ancient cathedral；how men and women, friends and enemies, priests and soldiers, monks and prebendaries, were crumbled amongst one another, and blended together in the same common mass；how beauty, strength, and youth, with old age, weakness and deformity, lay undistinguished in the same promiscuous heap of matter.

问答题Practice 3西藏旅游：揭去神秘的面纱 西藏地处中国西南部。13世纪中叶，正式纳入中国元代版图。尽管中国历经多次改朝换代，政权更迭，但是，西藏始终在中央政府控制之下，是中国的一个不可分割的部分。 今天是一个以喷气式飞机、高速公路和计算机网络为标志的信息时代。世界上具有神秘色彩的地方已所剩无几，西藏却是一个例外。 由于其地理位置偏僻、地形地貌独特，原始的自然风光和仍鲜为人知的民俗风情，以及本世纪初一些外国探险家带回去的种种宣传，这一切可能使人们对西藏形成一种神秘感。 西藏历史文化悠久。考古发掘遗迹表明4000至两万年前就有人栖息于此。勤劳勇敢的西藏人民创造了充满活力、丰富多彩的文化习俗，是一个富于独特的传统文化、能歌善舞的民族。 西藏天文学、历算先进，医学发达，拥有大量经典和文学作品。西藏的艺术瑰宝有绘画、建筑、雕刻、音乐、舞蹈、民间戏剧。西藏各地都有著名的古代艺术景点，其中最著名的景点有布达拉宫、扎什伦布寺、大昭寺和小昭寺等。这里的观光旅游和民俗风情旅游，是世界上最为独特的。 如今游客可以以多种方式进入西藏，他们可以乘汽车从新疆、青海、四川或云南到西藏，也可以乘飞机从北京、成都或重庆到拉萨。 现代游客渴望重返大自然，欣赏大自然。西藏地域广阔、人口稀少，高山白雪皑皑、森林郁郁葱葱、杜鹃满山遍野，河流奔腾不息，湖泊静谧安详。这里绝大多数地方没有污染，散发着淡谈的原始醇香。在这里人们可以尽情地享受大自然的恩赐。

问答题Passage 2 Is there something as truth?

It is at least 11 that the seekers after “truth” have made a similar mistake and invented a（n） 12 combination. It is 13 to consider that the noun truth comes from the adjective true, and that the Latin world for truth, verities, also comes form an adjective, versus.
