地道美語:同歷史愛好者逛博物館
Livy:Tell me again why we're here on a Saturday afternoon.
Nicholas:You're going to love this museum.
It has artifacts and exhibits from all the major periods in history, from prehistoric days to the present.
Livy:Hmm, fascinating.
Nicholas:It is, isn't it?
We follow the timeline of human history from one room to the next. See?
This room is devoted to ancient history and ancient civilizations.
Livy:Is there a gift shop?
Nicholas:Sure, there's one on the way out, but let me show you a few things in this room.
It's all about the Middle Ages.
Check this out. Doesn't it blow your mind?
Livy:Yeah, wow, great. Actually, it's all kind of dull.
Isn't there something more exciting to see?
Nicholas:You want excitement?
Then let's skip ahead to the rooms on the Renaissance. Look at this!
Livy:This is all great, but I've seen enough. Let's keep going.
Nicholas:We're rushing past the best exhibits, but if you want to keep going, I guess we can do that.
These next rooms are devoted to more recent history, the Industrial Revolution and pre- and post- World War years.
Livy:Is there anything else?
Nicholas:You mean you're done looking at over 3,000 years of historical exhibits?
This is one of the best museums in the world.
I could spend all weekend here.
Livy:That's because you're a history buff.
Hey, that room is about the Information Age.
Do you think I can check my email in there?
Nicholas:sigh.
