Features: Expanding mathematical horizons, interpreting mathematical concepts, and experiencing the charm of mathematics. Set against the backdrop of Shanghai, a metropolis, this book uses vivid daily production and life events as real-life scenarios to create specific mathematical application problems, providing detailed solutions. It showcases the infinite charm of "observing, analyzing real-life events from a mathematical perspective and using mathematical thinking, identifying problems, and applying learned knowledge and skills to solve them" (excerpted from the "New Mathematics Curriculum Standards"). Readers can feel the pulse of urban life while reading and enjoy the joy of mathematics, as well as appreciate its value. The book aims to expand mathematical horizons, interpret mathematical concepts, and experience the charm of mathematics. It is divided into two parts: "Exploring" and "Visiting," incorporating Shanghai's parks and green spaces, cinemas and theaters, exhibition halls, commercial streets, traffic bridges, restaurants and hotels, science and education, cultural heritage, festivals, telecommunications, environmental protection, and healthcare into mathematical teaching. Students are encouraged to apply mathematical and geometric knowledge for various calculations, flexibly using their learned knowledge to experience the beauty of mathematics, the beauty of life, and the beauty of the era.
