When the students come into the museum foyer we ask them to check in their backpacks with their books, lunch boxes, etc, at the cloakroom before they enter the museum proper.

学生进入大厅后要先去寄物处，我们需要检查他们的书包里的书和午餐盒以及其他物品，才能进入展区。

I'm afraid in the past we have had a few things gone missing after school visits so this is a strict rule.

因为之前一些学校参观后，展品曾经遗失，所以现在这个检查是必须的。

Also, some of the exhibits are fragile and we don't want them to be accidentally knocked.

另外，博物馆里面很多展品非常脆弱，我们也不希望它们被碰坏了。

But we do provide school students with handouts with questions and quizzes on them.

不过我们会给学生发一本手册，上面有一些问题和小测试。

There's so much that students can learn in the museum and it's fun for them to have something to do.

这样学生们在博物馆可以学到很多东西，同时学生也希望在里面有点事儿干。

Of course they'll need to bring something to write with for these.

当然了，他们自己得带笔来记录。

We do allow students to take photographs.

我们这里是允许拍照的。

For students who are doing projects it's useful to make some kind of visual record of what they see that they can add to their reports.

把看到的东西拍照记录下来对学生很有用，他们可以把照片加在课堂活动的报告里去。

And finally, they should not bring anything to eat into the museum, or drinks of any kind.

最后，携带食物或饮料不许带入博物馆。

There are also a few things the students can do after the tour.

参观结束后同学们可以参加一些活动。

In the theatrette on the ground floor there are continuous screenings of short documentaries about dinosaurs which they can see at any time.

一楼的小剧场里会循环放映关于恐龙的短纪录片，同学们可以随时进去观看。

We used to have an activity room with more interactive things like making models of dinosaurs and drawing and painting pictures, even hunting for dinosaur eggs, but unfortunately the room was damaged in a bad storm recently when water came in the roof, so that's closed at the moment.

以前我们还有一个活动室，人们在那儿可以参加很多有趣的活动，比如制作恐龙模型、画画，还有寻找找恐龙蛋的游戏等等。可惜因为上次的暴风雨，房间被破坏了，所以现在暂时关闭了。

But we do have an IT centre where students have access to CD ROMs with a range of dinosaur games.

不过我们还有一个计算机中心，里面的光盘里有很多恐龙游戏。

These games are a lot of fun, but they also teach the students about the lives of dinosaurs, how they found food, protected their habitat, survived threats, that kind of thing.

这些游戏不仅好玩，还能帮助同学们了解恐龙如何生活、如何寻找食物、保护领地以及如何面对威胁等等。

And ... I think that's all I have to tell you.

然后……我要跟大家说的就这些了。

Please feel free to ask any questions if you would like to know anything else ...
