二、阅读理解
Is it possible to learn about the history of the world in just one day You can try by visiting an exhibition (展览) called A History of the World in 100 Objects.
The objects are from the famous British Museum. A History of the World in 100 Objects is one of the museum's great exhibitions. Now it comes to China for the very first time. The exhibition opened in the National Museum of China in Beijing on March 2, and will last until May 31.
The British Museum spent four years carefully choosing the 100 objects from its huge collection of 8 million things. They had to represent different times and cultures.
"The objects had to cover the whole world. They are from a cooking pot to a golden galleon (西班牙大型帆船), from a Stone Age tool to a credit card," Neil MacGregor, former director of the British Museum, wrote in a book. He was in charge of choosing the objects.
For example, there is a seal (印章) that people in the Indus Valley(印度河流域) used at around 2500 BC. There is also a tablet (匾额) that was used at around 700 BC in the Middle East. But modern objects like a solar-powered (太阳能的) lamp are also on display (展出). They show the result of scientific development.
Of course, there is not a lack of objects from China. You will see a bronze bell from the time of Confucius. There is also a banknote from the Ming Dynasty, showing that China is the first country to use paper money.
