羅拉因為要看中國戲劇而感到特別興奮，早早地拉著雪莉來到了劇院。離演出開始還有好長一段時間，這下他們該干點什么呢？

Listen Read Learn

Shirley: We came too early. There're still three hours before the performance starts.

Laura: I know. Sorry, I shouldn't have rushed you, but I just couldn't stay at home and wait.

Shirley: Never mind. What about taking a look around the theater?

Laura: Why not? I'd love to do that.

Shirley: Here we go. There is a museum of the Beijing Opera art.

(They come to the museum of the Beijing Opera art.)

Laura: Wow. Look at this. So delicate and beautiful. Did ancient Chinese people really wear them?

Shirley: Not really. They are just opera costumes. Do you like the embroidery?

Laura: I surely do. They must have had advanced machine in ancient China to do that.

Shirley: No, no, no. They are all handmade, girl. You know, the ancient Chinese women were supposed to be good at needlework.

Laura: Unbelievable! I could never do that.

Shirley: Very few can. That's why these clothes only appear in the museum.

Laura: Listen! Some people are singing outside. Is it the opera?

Shirley: Oh, yes. I heard there was an opera fans club. They are probably practicing now. Wanna have a look?

Laura: Yes, let's do it.

Shirley: Follow me. Make sure not to interrupt them.

Laura: Of course not. We don't do that.

雪莉：我們來得太早了。離演出開始還有三個小時呢！

羅拉：我知道。對不起，我不該催你的，可我就是受不了在家里等。

雪莉：沒關(guān)系。要不我們參觀一下這個劇院？

羅拉：為什么不呢？我很樂意這么做。

雪莉：那我們走吧。這里有一個京劇藝術(shù)博物館。

（她們來到了京劇藝術(shù)博物館。）

羅拉：哇，看這個。這么精致、漂亮。中國古代的人真穿這些衣服嗎？

雪莉：不是的。它們只是戲服。你喜歡這些刺繡嗎？

羅拉：我當(dāng)然喜歡了。中國古代一定有先進(jìn)的機器來做那樣的衣服。

雪莉：不，不，不。它們都是手工制作的，小姑娘。知道嗎，中國古代女子都得做針線活。

羅拉：真是難以置信！我一定做不了這個。

雪莉：很少有人能做到。這就是為什么這些衣服只出現(xiàn)在博物館里啊。

羅拉：聽！有人在外面唱歌。那就是戲曲嗎？

雪莉：哦，是的。我聽說這里有一個戲迷俱樂部。他們現(xiàn)在可能在排練。想去看看嗎？

羅拉：好的，我們?nèi)タ纯础?br />
雪莉：跟我來。得保證不打擾他們哦。

羅拉：當(dāng)然不會。我們可不會那么做。

There was a museum of the Beijing Opera art. I saw some very beautiful opera costumes. I wondered how the ancient people had managed to make those things with hands. It's just unbelievable!
