首次在中國舉辦的上海世博會已經在5月份開啟大幕，作為一次人類文明的精彩對話，上海世博會將給我們帶來什么呢？接下來讓我們一起來領略一下各大主題館的魅力吧。

Theme Pavilions

Expo 2010 will have five theme pavilions,namely,Urbanian,City Being,Urban Planet,Footprint and Future.The first three are housed in the Theme Pavilion building in Zone B which is one of the Expo landmarks,for which the design is inspired by the concept of the “paper folding”.As an attractive feature,the roof is designed to imitate the dormer window that is often found in Shikumen houses (a traditional Shanghai architectural style).The other two pavilions,Footprint and Future,are located in two modified industrial buildings in Zone D and Zone E respectively;they represent a fascinating mix of tradition and modernity.

主題館

上海世博會設有五個主題館，其中城市人館、城市生命館和城市地球館三個主題館位于浦東B片區的主題館建筑內。展館外形設計從“折紙”的創意出發，屋頂則模仿了上海里弄“老虎窗”正面開、背面斜坡的特點，顯示上海傳統石庫門建筑的文化魅力。城市足跡館和城市未來館分別位于浦西的D片區和E片區，兩座展館建筑利用原工業建筑進行設計改建，構成傳統與現代相互呼應的嶄新空間。

Urbanian Pavilion

Urbanian Pavilion,focusing on the needs and development of people,tells the stories of people in cities.In its five sections,“Family”,“Work”,“Contact”,“Learning” and “Health”,visitors will see the videos of six real families from six cities of five continents.Together with the exhibits,settings and multimedia installations,the sight of 11 cities are racily showed.Visitors will have a vivid view of city dwellers’life and it is the pursuit of a better life that draws people to urban areas.

城市人館

展館以人的需求與發展為主線，講述城市中“人的故事”。通過對世界五大洲六個城市中六個不同家庭的跟蹤拍攝，將他們的故事嵌入“家庭”、“工作”、 “交往”、“學習”和“健康”五個展區，運用實物、布景與多媒體特效相結合的手法，營造出11個不同城市的景觀，讓觀者可以身臨其境地了解城市人的不同需求，體驗“人們留在城市，是為了更好地生活”。

Pavilion of City Being

The theme of life,or the city’s journey of life,runs through allits exhibitions.In a metaphorical way with high scientific technologies,a city is compared to a living being consisting of body and soul.

城市生命館

展館以“生命”為主線，總攬城市的“生命之旅”。館內通過高科技的手法，以隱喻的形式，表明城市如同一個生命活體，具備生命的結構和靈魂。

Pavilion of Urban Planet

The top of two parallel spiral ramps offers a good view of a 32-meter-diameter globe.Its five sections including“Blue Planet” and“The Only Planet We Have”tell how the development,sometimes overdevelopment,of cities produces ecological problems,and how people awaken to urbanization and environmental challenges.Visitors come to understand cities as a source of both problems and solutions.

城市地球館

展館展示空間主要是兩條平行的螺旋狀坡道，參觀者可以在其頂端俯瞰直徑達32米的巨型球冠。展館內設置“城市蔓延”、“危機之道”、“藍色星球”、“解決之道”、“我們只有一個地球”五個展區，分別講述城市的發展與過度發展造成的生態問題，展現了人類對城市及環境問題的認知、覺醒與努力。參觀者通過與展品的情感互動，可認識到城市既是問題的制造者，也是問題的解決者。

Pavilion of Footprint

The Pavilion includes three exhibition halls— “City’s Origin”,“Growing City”and “Urban Wisdom”.It traces the birth and growth of cities,their philosophies and the urban wisdom centering innova-tion and harmony.

城市足跡館

展館通過“城市起源”、“城市發展”、“城市智慧”三個展廳，分層次地展現誕生與崛起的城市元素、人文與轉型的城市哲理、創意與和諧的城市智慧。

Pavilion of Future

The exhibition starts with an interaction with visitors,inviting them to imagine what cities will be like in the future.Through movies,books and sculptures,it tells how a city was envisaged,planned and realized in history,proposes the various possibilities of a future city,and points to the spiritual elements that have always driven human progress.

城市未來館

展館內的展示以互動方式開始，邀請參觀者暢想未來的城市，然后運用影片、書籍和雕塑等方式，展示歷史上人們對未來城市的夢想、設計與實踐，表明未來城市建立在今日挑戰的基礎上，并且暢想未來城市的各種可能，闡述推動人類進步永恒不變的精神元素。
