[01:36.13]A VISIT TO THE MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY
[02:03.09]Last Saturday afternoon,
[02:06.93]Wei Hua and her class mates were visiting the Museum of Natural History.
[02:14.66]They were very interested in dinosaurs.
[02:53.43]Can we see dinosaurs here?"Wei Huaasked Miss Li,their guide.
[03:17.59]"Yes,of course.there is an underground Dinosaur World.
[03:24.15]There you can see the fossils of may kinds of dinosaurs.
[03:31.59]Shall we go to visit the dinosaurs first?"
[04:15.76]"Yes!Let's go!"All the students cheered. Then they went to the Dinosaur World.
[04:49.12]"Oh,look!These must be dinosaur eggs.They are so big!"Lucy shouted.
[05:05.19]"Yes,These eggs were found in the Gebi Desert by group of scientists in the 1920s."Miss Li said.
[05:59.63]"so there eggs were lad long long ago by dinosaurs!" Lily said.
[06:37.09]Miss Li smiled,"There eggs were laid about 95 million years age."
[07:10.34]"95 million years ago?
[07:15.80]That means dinosaurs lived long before human beings appeared!
[07:51.77]But we can't see any dinosaurs today.That's a pity!"said Lin Tao.
[08:08.12]"Yes.Dinosaurs lived on the earth for more than 150 million years,
[08:15.88]and then disappeared about 65 million years ago.
[08:21.94]Scientists try to explain their disappearance ,n
[08:27.82]but they've got more questions than answers,"said Miss Li.
[09:42.87]"and now there is a very special dinosaur on display.It was discoveered in Liaoning Province.
[09:53.14]I say it is special because the dinosaur was covered with feathers!"
[10:45.41]"With feathers?Like birds?"The students could not believe their ears.
[10:59.85]"Look !"Miss Li showed them a picture of the feathered dinosaur,"you see,it looks like a abig bird.
[11:13.49]Some scientists believe that dinosaurs have not disappeared,but they have become birds."
[12:13.83]"That's very interesting.
[12:21.38]I want to be a scientist in the future and study dinosaurs!"said Song Dan.
[12:51.21]"good.Then we can see many dinosaurs discovered by you in the museum,"
[13:25.56]said Miss Li,and all the students laughed. |
