丹尼爾對(duì)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(diǎn)以為一個(gè)四千年前的三腳杯毫無(wú)價(jià)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(guó)館嗎？

阿美：是啊?？催@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(huì)變成粉末。

丹尼爾：那么玻璃瓶中沒(méi)有空氣了？

阿美：沒(méi)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(lái)自古代。

丹尼爾：嘿，看這個(gè)三只腳的杯子。我在電視上看到過(guò)。

阿美：四千年前的青銅杯子。這可是無(wú)價(jià)之物！

丹尼爾：是啊，沒(méi)有一點(diǎn)價(jià)值。如今誰(shuí)會(huì)用這種杯子啊？

阿美：丹丹，無(wú)價(jià)意味著價(jià)值大得無(wú)法計(jì)算。

丹尼爾：哦，是嗎？
