Luoyang,Zhang Heng made the ancient seismograph to identify the direction of an
earthquake.It was made of fine copper,and looked like a big cup with a lid.The
instrument was cast with eight dragons on the surface,and each dragon held a
copper ball in the mouth.On the ground below the dragons,there were eight copper
toads raising their heads and opening their mouths opposite the
dragons mouths.People highly respect Zhang Heng as a great scientist,and they
often hold commemorative activities to show respect for him.A crater on the moon
was named after him. 参考翻译:
中国历史博物馆的展厅里,陈列着第一台地动仪 (seismograph)的修复模型。
发明者是东汉著名的科学家张衡。公元132年,在当时的都城洛阳,张衡发明了古代的地动仪(seismograph),以辨别地震的方向。地动仪由纯铜制成,看起来像个带盖的大杯子。其表面铸有八条龙,每条龙口含一颗铜珠。每条龙的下方都有一只仰头的铜蟾蜍(toad),张口对着龙的嘴巴。人们十分尊敬张衡这位伟大的科学家,并常常举行纪念活动表达对张衡的尊敬之情。月球上的一座环形山(crater)就是以张衡的名字命名的。
