49、尽周折地把群山变成梯田呢？首先，这个地区几乎没有大片平地。因此，建造梯田意味着他们能够增加他们可以种植水稻的面积。其次，尽管该地区雨水充沛，但山势陡峭，土壤很薄。平坦的梯田可以收集雨水，防止土壤被冲走。4 但也许最有意义的是人们用与自然和谐相处的方式建造这些梯田，种植水稻。梯田设计巧妙，数百条水道相互连接。在雨季，雨水就是沿着这些水道顺着山脉流入梯田的。太阳把水加热并把它变成气体，这就形成了云，雨又从云中落下，落到山上的梯田里。这些梯田也为鸟类和鱼类提供了一个完美的环境，它们中的一些以损害水稻的昆虫为食。5 虽然现代技术可以帮助生产更多的农作物，但这些梯田对当地人来说仍旧意义重大，他们是把传统
50、看得很重要的人。这一知识通过家族传承下来，这意味着新生的一代代人继续使用农耕古法来维持梯田。今天，龙脊水稻梯田吸引着成千上万的游客来欣赏这由人类和自然共同创造的伟大奇迹。词语积累imagine v想象，设想imagination n想象力，想象imaginary/mdnri/adj.想象中的，幻想的，虚构的sheet/it/n(一)大层(覆盖物)；床单，被单；(纸)片，(纸)张frost/frst/n霜；严寒天气，霜冻dynasty/dnsti/n朝代Yuan Dynasty 元朝 Tang Dynasty 唐朝completion/kmpli()n/n完成，结束complete adj.完全
