No one can deny China’s efforts to reach for the sky.
At one kilometer high, the two Phoenix Towers planned for Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province in central China, will be the tallest in the world if completed on schedule in 2017.
The towers will also be pink, crazily futuristic and environmentally friendly.
Designed to sit on an island in a lake, the largest of the towers will stand 172 meters taller than Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
“We were asked to create an iconic building for Wuhan, which embodies a strong environmental and social content as well as reflecting Chinese tradition,” Laurie Chetwood of UK-based design firm Chetwoods Architects told CNN.
The design is inspired by dualism(二元论) in Chinese culture-the traditional Chinese phoenix symbol of the two birds, Feng and Huang, as well as the idea of yin and yang.
Feng and Huang, or phoenix, are a pair of mythical birds in Chinese culture traditionally used to denote royalty.
Three large spheres containing restaurants will be accessible via suspended “skywalks” between the two towers.
The spheres “represent planets orbiting the towers”, according to the designers.
The larger building will also have the unlikely boast of housing the world’s tallest kaleidoscope(万花筒) driven by a wind turbine(涡轮机).
A commercial square at the towers’ base will meet China’s growing demand for cultural tourism.
“You’ll have a French street, a Japanese street, a Turkish street, and so forth… to allow people to see the world without necessarily having to leave China,” Chetwood told the Guardian.
The towers are designed to have green features such as pollution-absorbing surfaces to filter the city’s air as well as technology to filter the water.
The towers are designed to be able to produce enough power to fulfill their own needs and those of neighboring areas.
“If you work in the UK, if you come up with anything that’s off the wall ( 有点出格的) or slightly out there, you sort of get kicked back,” Chetwood said. “ In China it goes the other way- they ask for a bit more. That’s a stimulating experience for a designer.”
1.Which of the following about the two Phoenix Towers is TRUE?
A. Their inspiration comes from Chinese culture.
B. At present they are the tallest in the world.
C. They will be surrounded by three ground-level spheres.
D. People will have a taste of foreign flavors inside the spheres.
2.According to Laurie Chetwood in the last paragraph, China’s response to new ideas is _________.
A. doubtful B. negative
C. cautious D. enthusiastic
3.This article focuses on the _________ of the two Phoenix Towers.
A. appearances B. construction
C. features D. height
4. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Phoenix Towers: Pink and controversial.
B. The Phoenix Towers: Super tall and green.
C. The Phoenix Towers: Work of a Great Architect.
D. The Phoenix Towers: Work of China-UK cooperation.
