课文讲解

 

For a marvelous walk through the evolution of Chinese civilization, visit the National Palace Museum in Taipei’s Shilin district. This world-class museum holds priceless antiques, from jade carvings and bronze armor, to scenic paintings and elegant calligraphy. Its nearly 700,000 items are a record of over 8,000 years of history. There are ancient tools from the Neolithic age, and imperial treasures of the Qing Dynasty.

想来一趟非凡的中华文化发展之旅,那就要去参观位于台北市士林区的故宫博物院。这间世界级的博物馆坐拥无数稀世之珍,从玉雕到铜甲,山水画及优美的书法。将近70万件的展览品记录着超过8千年的历史。其中包括新石器时代的古老器具,还有清朝的帝王级宝物。

 

The museum’s collection is so large that only one percent of it is on display at any one time. To share the whole store of art with the public, museum curators rotate exhibits every three months. The bright side of this frequent change is that every visit to the museum is a unique experience.

由于馆藏实在太丰富,以至于每一段时间都只能陈列出1%的展览品。为了要让民众能够一窥所有的馆藏,故宫博物院的院长每3个月就要将展品轮换一次。这样频繁变换的好处就是每一次的参观都会是个独特的体验。

 

There are a couple of artifacts that are so popular, however, that they are kept on permanent display: the Jadeite Cabbage and the Meat-shaped Stone. Visitors line up daily to catch a glimpse of these exquisite masterpieces. These works alone make the National Palace Museum a must-see destination. Pay a visit to this highly-regarded institution and see all the classics yourself.

然而,还是有几件艺术品因为太受到欢迎所以固定陈列以供观赏:翠玉白菜和肉形石。参观的民众大排长龙只为了一睹这些精美的名作。这些艺术品使故宫博物院成为一个一定要到访的景点。快去看看这间众所瞩目的博物馆并亲眼见证这些经典吧。
