In the long history of Chinese civilization, we may feel that the unique Chinese characteristics are all around us and within us, which is to a large extent reflected in Kungfu. Kungfu or martial arts can only be mastered through hard work and practice, which contains rich yet profound Chinese philosophy, whether in curing diseases and improving health, or in subduing the enemy and preventing conflict, Kungfu can even have an effect on the daily lives of Kungfu fighters.
在中国文明的历史长河中，我们可能会觉得独具中国特色的就在我们身边，功夫就是其中之一。功夫或武术只能通过勤学苦练，但其中含有丰富而深刻的中国哲学，无论是在治疗疾病和提高健康水平，或者是在征服敌人和防止冲突中都能体现出来。
“All styles or schools of martial art originate from Shaolin Temple”. Today, Shaolin Kungfu has become a window of Chinese culture to the world, which also turns Shaolin Temple into the most influential ‘holy land’ of martial arts in the world. “天下武功出少林”。如今，少林功夫已经成为中国文化走向世界的一个窗口，同时也把少林寺变成了世界武术最有影响力的“圣地”。
Moreover, Tai Chi or Shadow Boxing, another school of Kungfu in Chinese martial art culture, was born here as well. It’s said that when a fighter surnamed Chen saw the symbol of Tai Chi in a place named Chenjiagou where two rivers flowed together, he then founded the world-famous school of martial art ---- Tai Chi. After realizing that the universe consisits of Yin and Yang, Tai Chi, because of its combination of Chinese Confucianism Taoism, Oriental Inclusive Concept, and unremitting effort to the unity of nature and man, can help attain the goals of self-cultivation and longevity. 此外，太极拳是中国武术文化的另一所学校，同样也在这里诞生。有人说，一位陈姓的武者在两条河流交汇的地方陈家沟看到太极的符号，然后他创立了一个世界著名的武术流派----太极。太极以中国传统儒、道哲学中的太极、阴阳辩证理念为核心思想，集颐养性情、强身健体、技击对抗等多种功能为一体，结合易学的阴阳五行之变化，中医经络学，古代的导引术和吐纳术形成的一种内外兼修、柔和、缓慢、轻灵、刚柔相济的汉族传统拳术。
-----Discussion: From what aspects can we introduce martial arts

flexible
词源：从词根来看，flex-(bend)+ible (can be done)=flexible可被弯曲的。当人的身体“易弯曲”时可译为“柔韧的”随着语言的发展，具体的基本义衍生出了新的抽象意义，flexible可以指人或计划等“可变通的；灵活的”。
释义
① 易弯曲的；柔韧的 able to bend easily without breaking:
② 可变通的；灵活的 able to change to suit any new situation:
派生词 flexibility n柔韧性；灵活性
|练习：根据句意，写出下列句子中flexible的释义。
---The inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet, so they're exploring ways to use it in wet environments. (2012 湖南) 1
