Meaning from Context Page 104
7
The Burj Al -Arab The Burj al -Arab is a luxury hotel in the city of Dubai.
8
From a distance, it looks like the sails on a ship, and the hotel seems to float on the water.
9
But, in fact, it sits on a small, human -made island.
10
When they started the project, engineers did not know how to create the new island, but they found a solution.
11
They used concrete and rocks.
12
It took three years to move enough sand and create safe ground above the water.
13
Then an architect designed the famous hotel.
14
Now, the Burj al -Arab has some of the most comfortable and expensive rooms in the world.
15
Across from the hotel, local residents in Dubai often see helicopters arrive at the top of the building with rich
16
and sometimes famous guests.

19
As you know, global warming is changing our world.
20
Oceans and seeds are rising, so there are more floods.
21
As a result, there isn't enough safe housing for people who live near water.
22
So, many architects and engineers are designing new kinds of houses for wet weather.
23
Let's take a look at some of their creative solutions to this problem.
24
First, I'll talk about Vietnam.
25
There's often heavy rainfall and flooding in the middle of the country.
26
To solve this, one Vietnamese architect designed a house that is three meters above the ground.
27
You climb a ladder to enter it.
28
Water can go under the house when there's flooding.
29
But when it's dry, you can use the area under the house as a storage space for plants, farm equipment, and animals.
30
The house is made from bamboo.
31
Bamboo grows in many places in Vietnam, so it's a cheap building material.
32
The United States also has problems with housing and hurricanes.
33
Hurricane Katrina in 2005 is a good example.
34
After the hurricane, there was terrible flooding and water destroyed a lot of houses.
35
90 % of the residents evacuated the city by car and drove to safer places further north.
36
Afterwards, when they returned, there weren't enough houses for many of them.
37
So, a U .S architect created the Float House.
38
It looks like a normal house, but if there's a flood, the bottom of the house moves up and it floats like a boat.
39
Dhaka in Bangladesh has a similar problem to New Orleans.
40
In Dhaka, there can be a lot of rainfall, and that destroys housing.
41
So, like the float house in New Orleans, there is the lift house in Dhaka.
42
The lift house floats up when the water rises and goes back to the ground afterwards.
43
Like the house in Vietnam, this house uses cheap bamboo, but it also uses old plastic water bottles.
44
The bottles help it float and make it inexpensive.
45
In Europe, the Netherlands has a long history of building in wet areas and near the sea.
46
About one quarter of the country is below sea level.
47
That's because Dutch engineers removed the seawater and created land to build on.
48
About 75 % of Dutch people live in houses on this land.
49
In addition, some people live on houseboats.
50
There are 60 ,000 houseboats in the Netherlands.
51
The typical houseboat is not big, about 5 meters wide and 20 meters long.
52
Houseboats can move from place to place, but they usually stay in one spot.
53
Now, many countries are turning to the Dutch to help with the problem of higher sea levels.
54
One Dutch architect, Koen Oethwis, uses the basic design of a houseboat,
55
but he builds comfortable and modern structures, even luxury homes.
56
His company, Water Studio, has already built more than 200 floating homes and offices,
57
and they are working on designs for floating cities.
58
Pretty amazing!

- 录下自己的声音并与原声对比，特别注意 float, flood, architect 这类单词。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
