我们都见过那些用来隔离马路上某条车道的交通警示锥，通常情况下，它们都需要工人们一个一个手动摆放，实在低效。现在，设计师带来的这款交通警示锥（Warning Cone），能让这个工作变得高效起来！
Sometimes we can see some traffic warning cones on the roads. It always takes construction workers long time to set them up. Oh！They are heavy and cumbersome1. How traditional they are！
有时候我们在公路上能看见一些交通警示锥，建筑工人们总是需要花很长时间将它们安放好。哦！它们沉重而累赘，多么传统啊！
Now designers at Asia University in Taiwan change the shapes of the bulky2 warning cones. Look at the pictures， please. A set of bright red warning cones is linked on the extendable3 base. There is a storage4 box for the warning cones. When a construction worker wants to use the bright red warning cone， he pulls out the extendable base. Then the bright red warning cones come out from the storage box one by one. How easily to expand the set of bright red warning cones！It looks like an accordion5. After use， the bright red warning cone can be compressed6 and placed back in the storage box by revolving7 the handle8 on the storage box. In such way， both time and space are saved！
现在，来自台湾亚洲大学的设计者们改变了笨重警示锥的形状。请看这些图片吧，一组鲜红的警示锥连接在可延伸的底座上，那儿有一个警示锥的储存箱。当建筑工人想使用鲜红的警示锥时，拉出可伸展的底座，然后鲜红的警示锥一个一个就从储存箱里出来了。展开这套鲜红的警示锥是多么轻松啊！它看起来像一个手风琴。用完之后，鲜红的警示锥能通过旋转储存箱上的把手，来压紧并放回到储存箱里。如此一来，节约了时间和空间！
New warning cone offers much greater convenience to construction workers. Most people like it. It wins Red Dot Design Award！
對于建造工人来说，新型警示锥提供了极大的方便，许多人喜欢它，它还获得了红点设计大奖哦！
