Passage 3
短文3
Welcome to the tour of the Hill House. This house, built in 1904, is one of the most well-known works of Charles Hill, the famous architect. It was designed and built for a local entrepreneur and his family.
歡迎參加希爾山莊的游覽。這座建于1904年的房子，是著名建筑師查爾斯·希爾最著名的作品之一。它是為一位當?shù)仄髽I(yè)家和他的家人設計和建造的。
Before starting the tour, let me give you a brief introduction about the design of this amazing building. Prior to beginning his design, the architect spent some time in the client's old home, observing their life and studying their habits. This meant that he could design the house according to the needs of the family. The client's main desire was to have a home with a unique design, so the architect was given complete freedom.
在游覽開始前，讓我先為你們簡要介紹一下這座令人驚嘆的建筑的設計。在開始設計之前，建筑師在客戶的舊居里待了一段時間，觀察他們的生活，研究他們的習慣。這意味著他可以根據(jù)家庭的需要來設計這座房子。客戶的主要愿望是擁有一座設計獨特的房子，因此建筑師獲得了完全的自由。
The building style is radically different from what was the fashion of the period. At the time, most large homes were constructed of timber and brick. This one, however, is made of concrete, a novel construction material in those days. The interior of the house, including fittings and furniture, was also designed by the same person. Most of the furniture you will see is original and in good condition. However, those pieces in the children's bedrooms are copies, built to the designs of the architect. Fortunately, all the blueprints for both the building and its contents have been preserved. So we've been able to replace badly damaged furniture. Let's begin our tour starting from the rooms.
這座房子的建筑風格與當時流行的風格截然不同。當時，大多數(shù)大型住宅都是用木材和磚塊建造的。然而，這座房子是用混凝土建造的，這在當時是一種新穎的建筑材料。房子的內(nèi)部，包括裝置和家具，也是由同一個人設計的。你們看到的家具大多是原裝的，并且保存狀況良好。但是，兒童臥室里的家具是仿制品，是按照建筑師的設計建造的。幸運的是，這座建筑及其內(nèi)部陳設的所有藍圖都被保存了下來。因此，我們能夠更換嚴重損壞的家具。讓我們從房間開始游覽吧。
