20、a fine run. Just ahead of me was Peggy Mimno, a teacher from Mount Kiseo, New York. She too was running easily, moving along at my speed. The pace felt comfortable, so I decided to stay where I was; why pay attention to pace when she was setting such a nice one Id overtake(追上 ) her later on when she
21、 tired. So I ran behind her. The course headed north for miles, wandered west for a hilly mile, then turned south again along a winding road. The race was getting harder.

Now say that the emperor orders your fingertips cut off so you can never build another one. Yes, that is the Taj Mahal,one of the most famous buildings i
30、n the world. And the tale behind the construction is just as impressive as the building itself. First, theres the emperor of northern India, Shah Jehan,also called the King of the World.

32、his people were shocked to see that his coal-black hair had turned snow-white. Putting away his sadness, Jehan ordered his wifes dying wish carried out.

33、g. And then, son number five, Aurangzeb, murdered his brothers and took over the power from his aging father. Hehan lived the rest of his days-eight years, to be exact-imprisoned not far from the Taj Mahal. Jehan was only allowed to climb onto the top of his prison to see the timeless treasure from
34、a distance. But never again would he be allowed to visit it-until he was buried next to his wife. Today 25,000 people visit the Taj Mahal each day.
