Heatherwick Studio designed the Glasshouse in a joint effort with The Woolbeding Charity and the National Trust. Inspiration came from Victorian ornamental terrariums, but the greenhouse is far from ornamental. The latest engineering techniques are used to create a protective functional structure that is also beautiful. The design features ten steel “sepals” made of glass and aluminum. These sepals open over four minutes to reveal a 1,517 square foot space shaped like a crown.
The Glasshouse opens on warm days using a hydraulic system to give the inside plants sun and ventilation. Then in colder weather, the structure stays closed to protect subtropical plants.
“This is a place and a project that literally unfolds. You step through this bewitchingly beautiful garden and discover an object that starts like a jewel and ends like a crown, as the Glasshouse slowly unfurls,” says Thomas Heatherwick. “I think it also speaks of our need to keep creating amazing pasts. Weaving contemporary inventions into the fabric of historic settings and having the confidence to let each one speak to the other.”
Further, the Silk Route Garden around the greenhouse walks visitors through a journey influenced by the ancient Silk Road. The trading routes between Asia and Europe brought silk and spices as well as many plant species to Britain for the first time. These plants included modernWestern favorites such as rosemary, lavender and fennel.
The garden also contains a winding path that guides visitors through the twelve regions of the Silk Road. The path offers over 300 plant species for visitors to see, too. Plant species span from Mediterranean evergreens to Gallica roses that came to Europe thanks to traders from Persia. “This Heatherwick Glasshouse represents the cutting edge of technical design and engineering but it’s also a restoration of something that is part of Woolbeding’s history,” Mark Woodruff of The Woolbeding Charity says.
“It stands as a crowning achievement in contemporary design, to house the flora of sub-tropical south-west China at the end of a path retracing the steps along the Silk Route, from temperate Europe and across mountains, arid lands and high pastures that brought the plants from their native habitat in Asia to come to define much of the richness and glory of gardening in England,” Mark Woodruff adds.
Learning requires focus. The reason is simple: 学习需要专注,原因很简单:
Learning is a process of building long-term memories.
学习是一个建立长期记忆的过程。
You form long-term memories of what you pay attention to.
你专注于什么,就会形成对什么的长期记忆。
Attention is limited. You can’t pay attention to multiple things at once.
注意力是有限的,你无法同时专注于多件事情。
But just because learning demands our focus doesn’t mean it can’t be enjoyable. Many activities put strenuous demands on our attention but we enjoy doing them anyway: video games, sports, puzzles and more.
但是,学习需要专注,这并不意味着它就不能令人愉快。有许多活动都对注意力提出了苛刻的要求,但我们还是乐在其中,例如电子游戏、体育竞技、拼图等等。
The opportunity cost theory of effort helps to explain the discrepancy. According to this theory, because our attention is limited, the motivational circuitry in our brain is constantly evaluating if what we’re paying attention to is a good use of this limited resource. Think of it like a busy manager trying to decide which jobs to put her limited staff on.
努力的机会成本理论有助于解释这种差异。这一理论认为,由于我们的注意力是有限的,大脑中的动机回路会不断评估我们所关注的事情是否很好地利用了有限的资源。可以把大脑想成一个忙碌的经理,想要决定安排有限的人力做哪些工作。
It feels effortful to do an activity that demands a lot of attention but doesn’t offer much reward. We may feel bored or amused by an activity that demands little attention, but it won’t feel hard. In contrast, it feels engaging to do an activity that demands a lot of attention and is highly rewarding.
做需要投入大量专注力却没什么回报的事,会让人觉得费力。在完成只需要很少专注力的事时,我们可能感到无聊或有趣,但不会感到困难。与之相反,如果一项活动需要大量专注力并且会带来丰厚回报,我们就会感到十分投入。
According to the principles outlined above, effective learning can’t happen in the low-attention conditions. Subliminal learning is not a real thing. But we can make learning more fun by increasing the reward dimension. If learning is more consistently rewarding, it will be more engaging rather than dull or frustrating.
根据上述原则,在低专注的状态下是无法进行有效学习的。潜意识学习并不是真实存在的,但我们可以通过提升奖励维度来让学习变得更有趣。如果学习能够持续带来更多奖励,那么它就会更吸引人,而不是枯燥乏味或令人沮丧。
