In ancient times, copper coins meant wealth. Joining the copper coins together one by one had the good meaning of collecting wealth. As a traditional skill in China, copper coin knitting (铜钱编织) was listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in 2018.
Every day at 9 a. m. , Zhang Canjin, 58, comes to the Drum Tower Street in Ningbo and walks into a small house. Sitting at his desk, the inheritor (继承人) of copper coin knitting starts his day. " Knitting the coins into different shapes doesn' t sound difficult, but the key is to be creative and think big, " Zhang said.
So, since he started his own copper coin knitting store in 2014, he has tried very hard to think big. Zhang added, " As I keep on making different works, I have more creative ideas in my mind" Zhang said.
To try something difficult, Zhang spent two months making armor (盔甲) with more than 8, 000 coins in 2017. It got great public attention and even got Zhang a national patent for design (设计专利).
Now, he tries to continue getting more creative ideas and hopes the art form will reach more people. " I think we Chinese people should pass on our own treasure and tradition, " Zhang said. The house of Zhang stands there in the middle of the crowded Drum Tower Street, and inside Zhang is knitting his love for heritage into a beautiful dream.
a. Zhang got a national patent for design.
b. Zhang made the armor with lots of copper coins.
c. Zhang started his own copper coin knitting store.
①Do you believe a rose plant says " I want some water" or a tree shouts " My arms hurt" ? Maybe you think it is impossible and you will say this could only happen in some children' s stories.
②In fact, plants are not always silent. A recent study has found plants shout when they are in need of water or having their stems cut. " Even in a quiet field, there are actually some sounds that carry information. However, the pitch is too high for people to hear, " said Lilach Hadany, a professor from Tel Aviv University.
③The researchers used microphones to record some tomato plants. They found that stressed (有压力的) plants send out more sounds than unstressed plants. " When tomatoes are not stressed at all, they are very quiet, " Professor Hadany said. They also trained a machine in telling the differences between thirsty plants and cut plants. The result shows that when the causes of stress change, they shout differently. After the team recorded many kinds of other plants, they found that many plants like corn, wheat and grape plants send out sounds when they are under stress, too.
④" There is a possibility that a lot of communication is happening, " Professor Hadany said. " Because other plants can probably hear the call of the stressed plants. "
⑤Sound recordings of plants could bring humans a lot of advantages, especially in farming. For example, people will make sure whether corn is getting enough water or where water is needed most without much difficulty. The study can help farmers to improve their harvest (收成) and increase their income.
