Unit 6 Design
凤凰城大学体育场(University of Phoenix Stadium)位于美国亚利桑那州,是美国著名的亚利桑那红雀橄榄球队的主场以及美国大学生体育协会(NCAA)嘉年华杯的举办地。
Have you ever heard of the University of Phoenix Stadium? It has the most modern technology in the world.
Workers began building the stadium in two thousand and three.It was completed about three years and four hundred fiftyfive million dollars later. Unlike most stadiums,it has a roof that fully opens.It is made of two parts that slide in and out. This area is called the Valley of the Sun.It sometimes is a very hot place.The average high temperature in the summer is above thirtyseven degrees Celsius. So the roof of the stadium can be closed to permit air conditioning machines to be used. But the roof can be opened during the cooler months for sporting and other events,like big rock concerts and trade shows.
The stadium has an unusual feature that no other stadium has.The natural grass playing field rolls in and out of the structure as needed.The grass grows on an object like a giant tray(托盘).Most of the time the grass is moved outside to get sunshine and rain.Workers roll it back inside for football games. Officials say this makes the center more usable for nonsporting events.
Architect Peter Eisenman designed the huge stadium.Its shape represents the barrel cactus(圆桶掌),a common plant in the area.The huge metal pieces that form its walls shine brightly in the desert sun.

Garden building is considered an important part of Chinese culture.Some people say that if you have never walked through a Chinese garden,you cannot say that you have really visited China.
Traditional Chinese gardens are located (位于) in North China in such places as Beihai Park,the Summer Palace,the Forbidden City.In larger imperial gardens(御花园),the main buildings are connected by an imaginary (虚构的)line in the middle of the garden on the northsouth axis(轴).Other features (特征) of imperial gardens are colored paintings,manmade hills and lakes.
Most private gardens are found in the south,especially in cities south of the Yangtze River.Private gardens were mostly built at one side or at the back of the houses.Around the beautiful scene are small open areas with beautiful shaped doors through which visitors can enjoy the sights.They are open on all sides and are often near the water so that the whole scene can be enjoyed.Suzhou,known as the home of gardens,displays the most and the best Chinese traditional private gardens.Different parts of it are examples of the garden style of the Song,Yuan,Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The landscape garden contains a number of pleasant natural scenes and some fairy tales.The ancient Chinese used to call the garden landscape“Jing”,which means “scene”in English.Good examples include the ten West Lake Scenes in Hangzhou,the twentyfour slim West Lake Scenes in Yangzhou and the eight Daming Lake Scenes in Jinan.
