本期小編帶大家來(lái)到“一帶一路”沿線國(guó)家—伊朗。波斯是伊朗的舊稱。伊朗的全稱是伊朗伊斯蘭共和國(guó)，位于西亞，屬中東國(guó)家，是文明古國(guó)。

在伊朗南部的設(shè)拉子有一座莫克清真寺（Masjed-e Nasir-al-Molk），被譽(yù)為伊朗南部最優(yōu)雅、最上鏡的清真寺之一。這座清真寺始建于1876年，與其他清真寺相比，它外墻中的粉紅彩釉格外突出，因此也被稱為粉紅清真寺。每天清晨8點(diǎn)到10點(diǎn)，陽(yáng)光便正好斜穿巨大的彩色玻璃窗，在波斯地毯上灑下美妙而神奇的色彩和光影，此時(shí)你若置身寺內(nèi)，尤其是當(dāng)那夢(mèng)幻般的色彩和光影也投射在你身上時(shí)，你可能會(huì)忍不住說(shuō)一句：愿此刻停留。

Mosque 清真寺，也稱禮拜寺，是伊斯蘭教信徒禮拜的地方。清真寺的主體建筑是禮拜大殿，方向朝向麥加克爾白。大殿正面墻中有凹壁，左前方有階梯形講壇。較大的清真寺還有宣禮塔。塔頂呈尖形，故稱尖塔，作喚拜之用。一般清真寺有1～4個(gè)尖塔，土耳其伊斯坦布爾的素丹艾哈邁德清真寺有6塔，麥加圣寺有7塔。還有沐浴用的水房。

Persian carpet 波斯地毯，是伊朗著名的手工業(yè)之一，自古就在國(guó)際上享有盛譽(yù)，以優(yōu)良的質(zhì)地、古樸雅致的圖案和精美的工藝受到世人的喜愛(ài)。據(jù)考證，其編織和生產(chǎn)的歷史至少已經(jīng)有2500年。波斯地毯的一大特色是其染料提取自天然植物和礦石，染色經(jīng)久不褪不變，構(gòu)圖以抽象的植物、伊斯蘭文字和幾何圖案為主。

名師考點(diǎn)小結(jié)

1. 把下面的句子改為同義句。

The bottle is full of water.

The bottle ______ ______ ______ water.

答案：is filled with

【解析】be full of意為“裝滿……”，相當(dāng)于be filled with（用……填充……）。又如：

The classroom was full of students. 教室里擠滿了學(xué)生。

2. Many people like reading newspapers __________ they can learn what’s happening in the world.（2017·山東德州）

A. so that B. ever since C. as soon as D. even though

【解析】句意：很多人喜歡看報(bào)紙，目的是了解世界上正在發(fā)生的事情。后句“他們能夠了解世界上正在發(fā)生的事情”是前句“很多人喜歡看報(bào)紙”的目的。so that引導(dǎo)目的狀語(yǔ)從句，通常和情態(tài)動(dòng)詞can、could、may、might等連用。故選A。

3. We should study hard __________ we can get much knowledge.（2017·廣西賀州）

A. when B. so that C. unless D. in order to

【解析】題干選項(xiàng)中，when“當(dāng)……時(shí)候”，so that“以便，為了”，unless“除非”。in order to也是“為了”之意，但是為介詞，不能引導(dǎo)從句。本句為目的狀語(yǔ)從句，故選B。

拓展：so...that...意為“如此……以至于……”，引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語(yǔ)從句。so后面接形容詞或副詞，例如：

It was so heavy that I could not move it. 這東西太重了，我搬不動(dòng)。

參考譯文

粉紅清真寺由國(guó)王米扎爾·哈?！ぐ⒗锵铝钣?876至1888年間建造，目前仍在使用。該寺是一座傳統(tǒng)的清真寺，但卻是世上最漂亮的建筑之一。

這座清真寺的正面鑲嵌了很多漂亮的彩色玻璃片，玻璃片會(huì)把陽(yáng)光反射到地面上、墻上、拱門上，甚至是參觀者身上！每當(dāng)陽(yáng)光穿過(guò)那多彩的玻璃，就會(huì)在寺內(nèi)營(yíng)造出一種萬(wàn)花筒般的色彩效果，并會(huì)投射在寺內(nèi)的地毯上。寺內(nèi)地面鋪滿了地毯，因?yàn)檫M(jìn)入清真寺的人都得先脫鞋。

不過(guò)只有清晨才能看到這種陽(yáng)光穿過(guò)彩色玻璃的效果。這座清真寺的設(shè)計(jì)初衷就是要捕捉晨曦，如果你中午的時(shí)候才來(lái)參觀，那就太晚了。當(dāng)晨曦透過(guò)彩色玻璃落在漂亮的波斯地毯上時(shí)，那景象讓人仿佛置身于另一個(gè)世界，像進(jìn)入夢(mèng)境般妙不可言。

這座清真寺有很多不同的名字，譬如“彩色清真寺”“萬(wàn)花筒清真寺”。最為人熟知的還是“粉紅清真寺”，因?yàn)樗聝?nèi)使用了大量粉紅的瓦片。
