7、aB Japanese scholars have been mystified for ages about why these tall, slender buildings are so stable.

11、his majestic雄偉的 Toji pagoda soaring fifty-five metres into the sky nearly half as high as the Kasumigaseki skyscraper built some eleven centuries later. Clearly, Japanese carpenters of the day knew a few tricks about allowing a building to sway and settle itself rather than fight natures forces. But

12、 what sort of tricks?C D The multi-storey pagoda came to Japan from China in the sixth century. As in China, they were first introduced with Buddhism and were attached to important temples. The Chinese built their pagodas in brick or stone, with inner staircases, and used them in later centuries mai

When the pagoda reached Japan, however, its architecture was freely adapted to local conditions they were built less high, typically five rather than nine storeys, made mainly of wood and the staircase was dispensed with 免除，省掉 because the Japanese pagoda did not have any pract

Is th

19、e answer that, like a tall pine tree, the Japanese pagoda with its massive trunk-like central pillar柱子known as shinbashira simply flexes伸縮，彎曲 and sways搖動, 搖擺 during a typhoon or earthquake? For centuries, many thought so. But the answer is not so simple because the startling令人吃驚的thing is that the sh

20、inbashira actually carries no load 不負重at all. In fact, in some pagoda designs, it does not even rest on the ground接觸地面, but is suspended懸掛 from the top of the pagoda hanging loosely down through the middle of the building. The weight of the building is supported entirely by twelve outer and four inn

21、er columns.F G And what is the role of the shinbashira, the central pillar? The best way to understand the shinbashiras role is to watch a video made by Shuzo Ishida, a structural engineer at Kyoto Institute of Technology. Mr Ishida, known to his students as Professor Pagoda because of his passion t

22、o understand the pagoda, has built a series of models and tested them on a shake- table in his laboratory. In short, the shinbashira was acting like an enormous stationary pendulum鐘擺. The ancient craftsmen, apparently without the assistance of very advanced mathematics, seemed to grasp the principle

23、s that were, more than a thousand years later, applied in the construction of Japans first skyscraper. What those early craftsmen had found by trial and error was that G under pressure a pagodas loose stack of floors could be made to slither 搖晃 to and fro independent of one another. Viewed from the

24、side, the pagoda seemed to be doing a snake dance with each consecutive連續(xù)的 floor moving in the opposite direction to its neighbours above and below. The shinbashira, running up through a hole in the centre of the building, constrained individual storeys from moving too far because, after moving a ce

27、 thousand years later, applied in the construction of Japans first skyscraper. 古代的工匠在明顯沒有先進的數(shù)學知識的情況下，似乎已經(jīng)掌握了一千年以后應用于日本第一摩天大樓的理論。【重要詞匯】Stack：pile or heap, usu H Another strange feature of the Japanese pagoda is that, because the building tapers逐漸尖細, with each successive floor plan being smaller than

28、the one below, none of the vertical垂直的 pillars that carry the weight of the building is connected to its corresponding pillar above. In other words, a five- storey pagoda contains not even one pillar that travels right up through the building to carry the structural loads from the top to the bottom.

29、 More surprising is the fact that the individual storeys of a Japanese pagoda, unlike their counterparts elsewhere, are not actually connected to each other. They are simply stacked 堆積one on top of another like a pile of hats. Interestingly, such a design would not be permitted under current Japanes

30、e building regulations.H Another strange feature of I And the extra-wide eaves? Think of them as a tightrope walkers走鋼絲表演者 balancing pole平衡桿. The bigger the mass重物at each end of the pole, the easier it is for the tightrope walker to maintain his or her balance. The same holds true for a pagoda. With
