选择性必修第三册 Unit 5 Learning from nature
Animals and plants can teach humans a lot about design and engineering.As a result,many engineers,scientists,and designers spend time studying them.When they have a problem,nature often has the answer.This science 56 (call)biomimetics.Bio means“living things”and mimetics means “copying”. It involves 57 (draw)inspiration from nature's designs and processes 58 (solve) human problems or improve technology.
For example,engineers in Canada are studying whale flippers(鳍)because they move so effectively through water.The engincers believe the shape can improve the movement of wind turbines(涡轮机).Similarly,engincers at Mercedes Benz in Germany are using the shape of the boxfish 59 one of their new cars because it makes the car 60 (fast) and more fuel efficient.
Velcro (粘扣)is 61 (probable)the most famous example of biomimetics.Most people have some Velcro on 62 item of clothing.It was invented by the Swiss engineer George de Mestral in 1948.He was walking in the countryside. 63 he pulled a burr(毛刺)off his trousers.He noticed how well the burr stuck to his clothes so he studied its design.The result was Velcro,which became an 64_____ (afford) alternative to the traditional zipper.
In conclusion,biomimetics not only has helped to design our world but promises many more 65 (possibility).Unfortunately,they might take a long time to develop.This isn't really surprising:it took nature millions of years to design its animals and plants.
