丹尼爾對博物館里所有的文物都被裝在玻璃瓶里表示疑惑,阿美告訴他那是為了保護(hù)文物不被腐蝕。丹丹還差點以為一個四千年前的三腳杯毫無價值。

Daniel: May, is this the Hall of Ancient China?
May: Yes. Look at these historical relics here, amazing!
Daniel: Why are they all in glass boxes?
May: For protection. Some relics will turn to dust if exposed to air.
Daniel: So there isn't air in the glass boxes?
May: No, there isn't. They are all vacuumed.
Daniel: I wonder how old these things are, thousands of years?
May: Yeah, they all come from a very ancient time.
Daniel: Hey, look at the three-leg cup. I've seen it on TV.
May: The bronze cup was made 4,000 years ago. It's priceless!
Daniel: Yeah, it has no value at all. Who will use this cup today?
May: Danny, priceless means so valuable that you can't put a price on it.
Daniel: Oh, it does?

丹尼爾:阿美,這是古代中國館嗎?
阿美:是啊。看這些歷史遺址,真令人驚嘆!
丹尼爾:為什么它們都被裝在玻璃瓶里呢?
阿美:為了保護(hù)它們啊。一些文物放在空氣中就會變成粉末。
丹尼爾:那么玻璃瓶中沒有空氣了?
阿美:沒有。它們都是真空的。
丹尼爾:真不知這些東西有多古老,幾千年?
阿美:是啊,它們都是來自古代。
丹尼爾:嘿,看這個三只腳的杯子。我在電視上看到過。
阿美:四千年前的青銅杯子。這可是無價之物!
丹尼爾:是啊,沒有一點價值。如今誰會用這種杯子???
阿美:丹丹,無價意味著價值大得無法計算。
丹尼爾:哦,是嗎?
