（单词翻译）
West Tibet, the roof of the world. In the thin air, 6000 metres high, a vast area of wasteland as far as the eye can see. In this remote corner of western Tibet, lie the ruins of a mysterious kingdom - a kingdom whose army was feared by all its neighbours, a kingdom which once dominated trade in gold, silk and spices between India and China. It was a kingdom of fabulous1 wealth and great religious significance.
Scholars argue that without this kingdom, Tibetan
Buddhism2 would have
withered3 and died centuries ago. Yet the spiritual and commercial harbor, which
prospered4 for seven centuries, vanished almost without a trace since 1630s.
What happened to bring this great civilization to an end? Was it the arrival of the first ever westers to visit Tibet? Or was it the intense
rivalry5 between two brothers fighting for power? Why was it completely abandoned? And what silent secrets do these decapitated
remains6 tell?
To
unravel7 this mystery, a Tibetan historian and an American archaeologist travel to the far reaches of Tibet to these 400-year-old ruins where they will discover the answers to what happened to the extraordinary kingdom of Guge.
