Unit 6 At one with nature
Imagine mountains wrapped in silver water, shining in the
spring sun. Summer sees the mountains turn bright green with
growing rice. During autumn, these same mountains are gold,
and in winter they are covered in sheets of white frost. These are
the colours of the Longji Rice Terraces.

想象一下：春日，群山被銀白色的水包裹著，在陽光下閃閃發(fā)光；盛夏，佳禾吐綠，將群山染成一片青翠。秋收，滿山黃金，而隆冬，它們又披上了冰霜做成的雪白毛毯。這，就是絢麗多彩的龍脊梯田。
Translation：
These terraces were built by the local Zhuang and Yao people, to
whom Guangxi is home. Starting in the Yuan Dynasty, work on
the terraces took hundreds of years, until its completion in the early
Qing Dynasty. Reaching as far as the eye can see, these terraces
cover tall mountains, often from the bottom to the very top.

龍脊梯田的建造者是廣西當(dāng)?shù)氐膲炎搴同幾寰用?。梯田從元朝開始修建，歷經(jīng)數(shù)百年，直到清初才完工。目之所及，梯田包裹著巍峨的高山，往往從山腳一直盤繞到山頂。
Translation：
So why did these people go to so much trouble to turn the entire
mountains into terraces Firstly, there are few large, flat areas of
land in the region. Building the terraces therefore meant that they
could increase the areas in which they could grow rice.
go / take to the trouble to do sth費(fèi)力做某事
turn A into B 把A 變成B
flat areas of land

為什么當(dāng)?shù)厝艘绱舜筚M(fèi)周章，把整片山區(qū)變成梯田呢？首先，這里缺乏大面積的平原，建造梯田意味著他們可以擴(kuò)大水稻的種植面積。
Translation：
Secondly, although the region has plenty of rain, the mountains are
steep and the soil is shallow. The flat terraces catch the rainwater
and prevent the soil from being washed away.
steep陡峭的
shallow淺的
prevent /stop ... (from) doing sth
阻止做某事

wash away沖走
其次，盡管該地區(qū)雨水充沛，但山地坡度大，土層淺薄。水平的梯田能夠儲(chǔ)存雨水，防止土壤被沖走。
Translation：
But perhaps what is most significant is the way in which people
have worked in harmony with nature to make these terraces and
grow rice. The terraces are cleverly designed, with hundreds of
waterways that connect with each other. During the rainy season,
it is along these waterways that rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces.

但也許最令人驚嘆的還是人們與自然和諧相處建造梯田和種
植水稻的方式。
梯田設(shè)計(jì)巧妙，其間有數(shù)百條相互連接的水渠。
在雨季，雨水會(huì)沿著這些水渠從山上流入梯田。

Translation：
The sun heats the water and turns it into vapour. This forms clouds
from which rain falls down onto the mountain terraces once again.
These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and
fish, (some of which feed on insects that can harm the rice crops).

這些梯田還為鳥類和魚類提供了絕佳的棲息地，而一部分鳥和魚又以危害水稻作物的昆蟲為食。

Although modern technology could help produce more crops, these
terraces still mean a lot to the people for whom traditions hold
much value. This knowledge is passed down through families,
which means that new generations continue to use ancient methods
of agriculture to maintain the terraces.
