為什么會確立這個主題呢？

Why is this theme established?

The core value can be interpreted as following: The City， built by people， has been evolving and growing into an organic system。 People are the most dynamic cells with the best ability to innovatein this system。 People’s life is closely interactive with the urban morphology and development。

With the raped urbanization， a more extensive relationship and interaction has been established between the city organic system and earth’s biosphere and resource system。 People， city and earth are just like three organic systems linking with each other and fusing into the integrity

其核心思想可以這樣理解：城市史人創(chuàng)造的，它不斷地演進、演化和成長為一個有機系統(tǒng)。人是這個有機系統(tǒng)中最具活力和最富有創(chuàng)新能力的細胞。人的生活與城市的形態(tài)和發(fā)展密切互動。隨著城市化進程的加速，城市的有機系統(tǒng)與地球大生物圈和資源體系之間相互作用也日益加深和擴大。人、城市和地球三個有機系統(tǒng)環(huán)環(huán)相扣，這種關系貫穿了城市發(fā)展的歷程，三者也將日益融合成為一個不可分割的整體。

Its core idea can be understood as follows: it was created by urban historians, and it has been evolving, evolving and growing into an organic system. Human is the most dynamic and innovative cell in this organic system. Human life interacts closely with urban form and development. With the acceleration of urbanization, the interaction between urban organic system and the earth's great biosphere and resource system is also deepening and expanding. The three organic systems of human, city and earth are closely linked. This relationship runs through the process of urban development, and the three will increasingly integrate into an inseparable whole.

For further reflect of the theme "Better City， Better Life"， five sub-themes are defined;they are "Blending of Diverse Cultures in the City"，"Economic Prosperity of the City"，"Innovation of Science and Technology in the City"， "Remodeling of Urban Communities"， and "Rural-urban Interaction"。

為了更好地理解“城市，讓生活更美好”，上海世博會還設有五個副主題分別是“城市多元文化的融合”、“城市經(jīng)濟的繁榮”、“城市科技的創(chuàng)新”、“城市社區(qū)的重塑”、“城市和鄉(xiāng)村的互動”。

In order to better understand "city and better life", Shanghai World Expo also has five sub themes, namely, "integration of urban multi culture", "prosperity of urban economy", "innovation of urban science and technology", "reconstruction of urban community" and "interaction between urban and rural".
