And while biomimicry is not a new concept (Leonard da Vinci looked to nature to design his flying machines, for examples and pharmaceutical companies have long been miming plant organism in synthetic drugs) there is a greater need for products and manufacturing processes that use a minimum of energy, materials, and toxins. We have a perfect storm happening right now, says Jay Harm an, an inventor and CEO of PAX Scientific, which designs fans, mixers, and pumps to achieve maximum efficiency by imitating the natural flow of fluids. Shapes in nature arc extremely simple once you understand them, but to understand what geometries are at play, and to adapt them, is a very complex process. We only just recently have had the computer power and manufacturing capability to produce these types of shapes. If we could capture natures efficiencies across the board, we could decrease dependency on fuel by at least 50 percent, Harmon says. What were finding already with the tools and methodology we have right now is that we can reduce energy consumption by between 30 and 40 percent. 参考答案 1-5 Matching A. First level: mimic natures precise and efficient shapes, structures, and geometries B. Second level: imitating natural processes and biochemical recipes C. Third level: creates symbiotic relationships with other like organisms 朗阁海外考试研究中心 Research Academy for Foreign Language Examinations 1. 名车 选：A 2. recycled gas 3 选：C 3.
