听力原文及翻译

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the museum of Farming Life. I understand it's your first visit here, so I'd like to give you some background information about the museum, and then explain a little about what you can see during your visit. So, where we're standing at the moment is the entrance to a large building that was constructed in 1880 as the home of a local businessman, Alfred Palmer, of the Palmer Biscuit Factory.
大家早上好，欢迎来到农耕生活博物馆。我知道这是你们第一次来这里，所以我想给你们介绍一下博物馆的背景，然后介绍一下你们在参观期间可以看到哪些地方。我们现在所站的地方是一栋大楼的入口，这座大楼建于 1880 年，是当地商人阿尔弗雷德·帕尔默 (Alfred Palmer) 的家，他经营着帕尔默饼干厂。

It was later sold and became a hall of residence for students in 1911 and a museum in 1951. In 2005, a modern extension was built to accommodate the museum's collections. The museum's owned by the university, and apart from two rooms that are offices, the university uses the main part of the building. You may see students going into the building for lessons, but it's not open to museum visitors, I'm afraid. It's a shame, because the interior architectural features are outstanding, especially the room that used to be the library.
后来，它被出售，于 1911 年成为学生宿舍，1951 年成为博物馆。2005 年，博物馆修建了一座现代化的扩建部分，以容纳博物馆的藏品。博物馆归大学所有，除了两间办公室外，大学使用大楼的主要部分。你可能会看到学生进入大楼上课，但恐怕它不对博物馆游客开放。这很遗憾，因为内部建筑特色非常出色，尤其是曾经是图书馆的房间。

Luckily, we've managed to keep entry to the museum free, which includes access to all the galleries, outdoor areas and rooms for special exhibitions. We run activities for children and students, such as the Museum Club, for which there is no charge. We do have a donation box just over there, so feel free to give whatever amount you consider appropriate.
幸运的是，我们设法让博物馆免费入场，包括进入所有画廊、室外区域和特别展览室。我们为儿童和学生举办一些活动，例如博物馆俱乐部，这些活动都是免费的。我们在那里有一个捐款箱，所以您可以随意捐出您认为合适的金额。

We do have a cloak room if you'd like to leave your coats and bags somewhere. Unlike other museums, photography is allowed here, so you might like to keep your cameras with you. You might be more comfortable not carrying around heavy rock sacks though. Keep your coats and jackets on as it's quite cold in the museum garden today.
如果您想把外套和包放在某个地方，我们有一个衣帽间。与其他博物馆不同，这里允许拍照，所以您可能想随身携带相机。不过，您可能更愿意不随身携带沉重的石袋。今天博物馆花园里很冷，所以请穿上外套和夹克。
