你住进一间被改造得很精致的民宿，房东说这栋楼以前是个教堂旁边的修道院。他提到：

"Some time ago, an interesting discovery was made by archaeologists on this block…”

你不由得想起课文里的开头句！
他继续描述这里当年的繁荣，就像你脑中闪过的：

"The city at one time must have been prosperous, for it enjoyed a high level of civilization."

然后你看到墙上还保留着带浮雕边框的彩色图案，马上联想到：

"They had large rooms with beautifully decorated walls."

你们无意中提到：“你说这巷子下是不是有排水系统啊？以前怎么防水？”

你立刻脑补出考古画面，自然而然想起：

"The city was even equipped with a drainage system, for a great many clay pipes were found beneath the narrow streets."

朋友说你“太会联想了”，你一笑解释：“前几天刚背一段英语，就这句！”

你看到节目中讲到爱琴海的某座小岛，一队美国考古队正在挖掘，突然！

主持人说了一句：

"...an ancient temple discovered on the island of Kea, in Ayia Irini..."

你差点跟着脱口而出：

“An American team explored a temple which stands in an ancient city…”
