10、oji pagoda soaring fifty-five metres into the sky nearly half as high as the Kasumigaseki skyscraper built some eleven centuries later.Clearly,Japanese carpenters of the day knew a few tricks about allowing a building to sway and settle itself rather than fight natures forces.But what sort of tricks
11、?,D The multi-storey pagoda came to Japan from China in the sixth century.As in China,they were first introduced with Buddhism and were attached to important temples.The Chinese built their pagodas in brick or stone,with inner staircases,and used them in later centuries mainly as watchtowers瞭望塔.When

22、ure a pagodas loose stack of floors could be made to slither 摇晃 to and fro independent of one another.Viewed from the side,the pagoda seemed to be doing a snake dance with each consecutive连续的 floor moving in the opposite direction to its neighbours above and below.The shinbashira,running up through
23、a hole in the centre of the building,constrained individual storeys from moving too far because,after moving a certain distance,they banged into it,transmitting energy away along the column.,【重要词汇】Stack：pile or heap,usu neatly arranged 堆,摞（通常指堆放得整齐的）:a wood stack 木材堆*a stack of newspapersslither：sli
