Two: Interpretation topic: Huaxia, the ancient name of our country.
In ancient China, the meaning of this word was the same as "flower", which was extended to mean beauty and brilliance. There are three explanations for "Hua":
The first theory is that people in the ancient Central Plains thought they lived in a civilized area with neat and gorgeous clothes, so they called themselves "Hua".
The second theory is: "Hua" means red. The people of the ancient Zhou Dynasty liked the color red and regarded it as a symbol of auspiciousness, so they called themselves "Hua".
The third theory is: "Hua" is the abbreviation of "Huaxia", the ancient name of China. ?Hua?, as the abbreviation of China, has a long history.
The first founding of the country in Chinese history was the "Huaxia" of slavery. The nation that founded the country was called the "Huaxia", so China is called "Huaxia". "Huaxia" means beautiful, and "Xiaxia" means vast. The two words are combined to form the word "Huaxia", which means big and beautiful. According to "Zuo Zhuan", it is called Xia because of its great benefits, and it is called Hua because of its beautiful clothing. This explanation elevates "big and beautiful" to a realm of high spiritual culture and high material civilization.
Culture refers to the sum of material wealth and spiritual wealth created by human beings in the process of social and historical development, specifically referring to spiritual wealth, such as literature, art, education, science, etc.
The uniqueness of I.M. Pei’s architectural design is that he incorporates the essence of China—Chinese architectural art into his design. What he shows to the world is the art of architecture, which is the essence of Chinese architecture. The charm of culture.

Teacher Demonstration:
Making his debut in the American architectural community
Reporter: Mr. Bei, you often say: My The roots are in China? The roots of Chinese architecture are still there and can still sprout? So what were your considerations when you traveled across the ocean to study in the United States?
I.M. Pei: Yes, I am proud to be Chinese! I often tell my friends that I am from Suzhou and I am from Guangzhou. My wife and I can still speak fluent Mandarin, Cantonese, Shanghainese and Suzhou dialect. I am engaged in architecture, and I often tell our friends in China that we cannot look outside every time there is a new building. The roots of Chinese architecture are still there. However, it is not enough to simply trace the roots of history, we must also modernize. Therefore, when I chose to travel across the ocean to study in the United States, I wanted to borrow fresh and useful things from foreign countries and connect them to the old roots of Chinese architecture, so as to better reflect the essence of Chinese national architectural art.
Reporter: Mr. Pei, I heard that your father wanted you to study finance, but you later chose to study architecture. There must have been a lot of twists and turns in the process, right?
I.M. Pei :It’s hard to describe in one word! But I chose what I loved the most and took a shortcut to success.
Reporter: Mr. Pei, who do you think had the greatest influence or help on your entrepreneurial journey?
I.M. Pei: Mr. William Zeigendorf, It was he who broke the conventions of the American architectural community and hired me as the director of the Architectural Research Department he founded. From then on, we began our twelve-year close, friendly and effective cooperation, which established my position in the American architectural community. Establish a firm foothold, start your own business, and lay a solid foundation. Here, please allow me to once again express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Wilhelm Zeigendorf!
Reporter: Your cooperation with Zeigendorf was a perfect match, but you later established your own company. After having your own company, have your design concepts changed at all?
I.M. Pei: Yes. Everyone knows that the world was created by the vast majority of the people, but most of them live at the bottom of society. Due to their limited economic level, they yearn for high-quality and low-priced housing. After I established my own company, the first thing I started to do was to design many popular apartments for these working-class people that had architectural beauty and were more economical and practical. They were very popular with them.
Reporter: Now you can be said to be successful and have won many enviable honors. What do you think of all this?
Ieoh Ming Pei: If you have to talk about me If you have achieved some achievements and won some honors, they can only represent the past.
I want to do some more work to the best of my ability during my lifetime, and continue to explore how to better integrate ancient traditional architectural art with the latest modern technology, so as to better serve the people!

3. I.M. Pei has been engaged in architectural design for more than 50 years and has designed many buildings. There are too many things, and the author handles the relationship between detailed writing and abbreviation very well. The combination of detailed writing and abbreviation is a major feature of this article. Where in the article is written in detail and where is abbreviated?
(When writing about the early achievements of I.M. Pei, all abbreviations are used; when writing about outstanding achievements, all abbreviations are used. I wrote about three buildings in detail, and later sketched out more than a hundred large buildings around the world)
4. This article is a personal communication, but I.M. Pei is a master architect, so I cannot. Instead of writing about his architectural design, in order to express the art of his design, the author uses descriptive techniques in many places, such as describing the appearance of the Bank of China Headquarters Building and the garden space inside the lobby, the interior of the East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, and the Xiangshan Hotel in Beijing. etc.;

However, when people understand his design intentions, they will realize its value.)
< p> 2. The roots of Chinese architecture are still there and can still sprout. Of course, it is not enough to simply trace the roots of history, we must also modernize. Once you have good roots, you can take cuttings and attach new and usable things to the old roots.
