来自大自然的绘画灵感是一个可以追溯到几世纪前的传统。 最能说明这一点的莫过于苏州留园。 其设计的主要原则是再造微型自然景观。 最初建于明代，原来的园林包含一个假山，象征天台山。 后来又增加了松树和竹林，以及一个池塘和一个岛屿。 游客会惊讶地发现花园模仿自然特征。 游客也应该依场景去探索。 这场景可能从一个池塘和飞溅的鱼，到繁花盛开的树，宝塔或月形的大门的变化。

Learning from nature’s wisdom led farmers in Ancient China to create the 24 Solar Terms, which were based on observation of changes of seasons, astronomy and other natural phenomena. Indicating changes in weather conditions, the 24 Solar Terms remain of particular importance to farmers for guiding their practices. The first term is known as “Beginning of Spring”, and marks when days become longer and the temperature begins to increase. Nowadays, the 24 Solar Terms not only apply to farming, but also guide Chinese people in everyday life. So varied are the functions of the Solar Terms and their contributions to cultural identity, that in 2016, they were added to UNESCO’s List of Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Inspiration from animals
来自动物的灵感
When solving a design problem, you can sometimes look to nature for a solution. One of the early examples is the study of birds to enable human flight. The Wright brothers got their inspiration from observing pigeons in flight, and in 1903 successfully obtained a patent for their designs for the first aeroplane. This approach, (called biomimicry(n. 仿生学)), studies and imitates nature’s designs and processes to seek solutions to(寻求解决方法) human problems. There are many types of biomimicry, (among which the most common one is copying form and shape). By imitating the beak of a bird, for example, bullet trains can be made to run much faster and more quietly. Another type of biomimicry is taking inspiration from(从...中获取灵感) the abilities of animals. Inspired by dolphins, people have learnt how to send signals underwater, which is currently employed in tsunami early-warning systems.
在解决设计问题时，有时你可以从大自然中寻找解决方案。 早期的例子之一是研究鸟类使人类能够飞行。 莱特兄弟的灵感来自于观察飞行中的鸽子，他们在1903年成功地获得了第一架飞机设计的专利。 这种方法被称为仿生学，研究和模仿自然的设计和过程，以寻求人类问题的解决方案。 仿生学有很多类型，其中最常见的是复制形式和形状。 例如，通过模仿鸟的喙，子弹头列车可以跑得更快、更安静。 另一种仿生学是从动物的能力中获得灵感。 受海豚的启发，人们学会了如何在水下发送信号，这一技术目前被用于海啸预警系统。
Read the passage about biomimicry and answer the questions. Pay attention to the words and expressions in bold.

Read the passage and answer the questions.
One of the outstanding features of traditional Chinese martial arts is the way they imitate animal movements. This came about because many Chinese martial artists admired the natural instincts, senses and fighting abilities that animals posses in order to survive in the world.
The first set of animal-imitating exercises came into being about 2,000 years ago. It was called Wu Qin Xi, or Five-animal Exercises, created by Hua Tuo (ca145---208). As a physician during the Han Dynasty, Hua Tuo is often credited with being the first in China to use anesthesia during surgery. He was known as the best physician of his time, and was an expert in acupuncture ( / kjup kt (r)/).
中国传统武术的一个突出特点是他们模仿动物动作的方式。 这是因为许多中国武术家钦佩动物为了在世界上生存所拥有的本能、感觉和战斗能力。
第一套动物模仿练习出现在大约2000年前。 它被称为五禽戏，或五禽戏，由华佗创造(约145—208)。 作为汉代的一名医生，华佗被认为是中国第一个在手术中使用麻醉的人。 他是当时最著名的医生，也是一名针灸专家。

Homework
Humans have always learned from nature. From the early days, we observed animals for hunting tips and survival skills. Over time, we learned to cultivate crops, build shelters inspired by natural structures, and harness energy from the sun, wind, and water. Today, technology continues to evolve, inspired by nature's designs. Nature remains our greatest teacher.
Humans have always been inspired by nature in their inventions. Many architectural wonders, like the Eiffel Tower mimicking tree branches for strength, showcase this. The aerodynamic designs of planes were inspired by birds. Even submarines were envisioned after observing fish. Nature's designs have revolutionized transportation and architecture, proving to be a timeless teacher.
