情景对话:
A: Can you show me around this antique temple?
B: My pleasure. All right, we are now in the Great Buddha'sHall. Check out the idol over there. It's so big.
A: I know this is an incense burner, and these are hassocks.
B: Yeah, people kneel down on the hassocks to worship the Buddha. Now let me show you the lectorium.
A: Well, some monks are in it. What are they doing?
B: They are chanting 锝擄絻锝掞綁锝愶綌ures.
A: And they're knocking something. What's that?
B: Oh, it's the wooden fish. Look, to our left is the meditation room and over there is a stupa, in which some Buddhist relics have been kept.
A: Wow, there are even wind bells here. A Chinese temple is so different from a convent or a church. Its architecture is unique.
B: Yeah, now shall we go over to the stupa?
A: OK, but wait. Here are still some halls. Can we take a look at them?
B: Of course.

A:哦。正好有几个僧人在里面，他们在做什么?
B:他们正在诵读经文。
A:而且他们还在敲击什么东西，是什么东西啊?
B:哦，那是木鱼。瞧，在我们的左手边是禅房，那边则有座宝塔，里面藏有佛骨舍利子。
A:哇，这里还有风铃。中国的寺庙真是不同于修道院和教堂.建筑风格真独特。
B:是啊，现在我们到塔那儿去看看吧?
A:好的，不过稍等一下，这里还有几个殿，我想看看可以吗?
B:当然可以。
