Choose the correct letter, A, B or C. [br] What is the purpose of the Rest House?
Many people have asked what the Rest House was for. Was it a place for pilgrims to stay? Was it a meeting hall of some kind? Perhaps the most likely answer to this question is that its purpose is purely
aesthetic, to act as a visual balance for the mosque and to preserve the symmetry of the design of the whole complex.
Let’s have a look at some of the engineering features of the garden. For one thing, they require a constant supply of running water. When it was built,
water was drawn from the river manually,
using an elaborate rope and bucket system, pulled by a team of bullocks. The water was then brought through a broad water channel and held in a number of
supply tanks.
These tanks were at varying heights off the ground and were ingeniously designed to store the very large amounts of water required. Using an elaborate system of underground pipes, the water was then
distributed from the supply tanks to each of the fountains.
To ensure that the water pressure was the same throughout the garden, there was a copper pot under each fountain connected to the water supply. It was undoubtedly a brilliant system.
选项
A、a place for the poor to stay
B、a meeting place for pilgrims
C、an architectural feature
答案
C
解析
录音原文中指出,这栋建筑的作用纯粹是为了让人悦目,为了和左边的清真寺形成一个平衡使得整个的规划构成对称。录音中的aesthetic“美学的”和选项中的architectural feature“建筑特色”在这里属于同义替换。故选C项。录音提到,它既不是为了给朝圣者停留也不是为了在这里举行会议。故排除A、B项。
