It stands out as one of the “2022 China􀆳s Top 100 Buildings in the New Era”. When building Taihu Tunnel, the project team faced many chalenges, such as high safety risks and the time limit. To deal with them, they made workable plans. They divided the tunnel construction into 19 parts. The con- struction of each part mainly took four steps. Step 1 Remove the water. The team built a cofferdam to remove water from the area, so the workers could go inside and do their work in dry conditions. Step 2 Clear out. The team dug deep into the lake bed, and cleared the soil and stones out in order to make space for the next step. Step 3 Build. The team built the floor, wals and the roof of the tunnel in this step. They used high-quality building materials to waterproof the tunnel. Step 4 Backfil the lake bed. The team put the soil and stones back. Then this part of the tunnel was buried deep down the lake bed. The construction of the 19 parts was streamlined. The project team used a new method. The work group of each step moved to the next part and repeated their work after they finished the work in the previous part. Different work groups cooperated wel with each other. From part to part, the construction started from the opposite ends, and got connected somewhere in the middle. The construction took about four years to complete, shorter than people had expected. The drivers􀆳 safety is fuly considered in Taihu Tunnel. There are about 200,000 LED lights on the ceiling of the tunnel. They show vivid pictures of the blue sky, starry night andso on. The pictures can help drivers fight tiredness and travel through the tunnel safely. Besides, there are two systems in the tunnel. The police can check the traffic situation through a monitoring system. If traffic accidents happen, the police can give instruc- tions and warn drivers in the tunnel over an audio system to prevent further accidents. The construction of Taihu Tunnel shows great value in engineering and the tunnel brings much convenience to people living nearby. 1. Which picture shows how a coferdam works? A B C D 2.
