导读:听说过人力驱动的主题公园吗?在意大利威尼斯,就有这么一座主题公园,公园里每一项设施的运转都是通过人力来驱动的。
Some of my favorite memories growing up were from the exciting adventure I experienced at theme parks. Six Flags, Universal, Hershey Park, Busch Gardens—I would visit them all if I could and have a great majority of them. Although I don’t go as much as I would prefer to, I still make time to go at least once a year!
However, the kid in me breathed in new life when I came across Ai Pioppi. Located about an hour away from Venice, Italy, Ai Pioppi is a restaurant that is home to a human powered theme park. Created by a man named Bruno, the project took about 40 years to come to become a reality. Here is another reason why going to Italy at least once is a must!
So what do we mean by human powered? It means that every ride in this park requires you to use active energy produced by your efforts to get things going. The host of the video to get the Bicycle of Death is an example!
If you want to get a workout and enjoy dangerous rides, sign up please! The park is closed on good portion of the weekdays and on winters, so plan your trip accordingly. Strict parental supervision is suggested if you are bringing young children along—the park is all metal and so self-supervision must be heavily applied even if you are an adult. The last thing this place needs is aggressive visitors who get hurt—resulting in the place getting a bad name or worse, shutting down.
Vocabulary
supervision n. 监督,管理
apply v. 应用
(Have you ever experienced human powered theme park?)
