Admission & Audio Guide · 买票+语音导览+参观须知
basicHi, two adult tickets, please. How much is admission?
你好,两张成人票。门票多少钱?
General admission is $25 per adult. We also have a special exhibition on Impressionism right now — that's an additional $10. Would you like to include that?
普通门票每位成人25美元。我们目前有一个印象派特展——需要另加10美元。您要加上吗?
💡 欧美很多大型博物馆除了常设展览(permanent collection)外,还有需要额外购票的特展(special/temporary exhibition)。有些博物馆如大都会艺术博物馆的门票是"建议捐赠"(suggested donation),理论上可以少付。
Yes, we'll add the special exhibition. Do you have an audio guide?
好的,加上特展。你们有语音导览吗?
We do! The audio guide is $7 each, and it's available in 12 languages including Mandarin Chinese. You can also download our free app and use your own headphones — it has the same content.
有的!语音导览每台7美元,支持12种语言,包括中文普通话。您也可以下载我们的免费App,用自己的耳机——内容是一样的。
I'll use the app. Are there any rules I should know about? Like, can I take photos?
我用App吧。有什么参观规则需要注意吗?比如,可以拍照吗?
Photography is allowed in the permanent collection, but no flash and no tripods. The special exhibition is no photography at all, I'm afraid. Also, please don't touch the artworks, and large bags need to be checked at the cloakroom over there.
常设展厅允许拍照,但不能用闪光灯和三脚架。特展区域很遗憾完全禁止拍照。另外请不要触摸艺术品,大件行李需要寄存在那边的衣帽间。
Got it. What time does the museum close today?
明白了。今天博物馆几点关门?
We close at 6 PM, but last entry is at 5:15. The special exhibition closes a bit earlier — at 5:30. You've got about four hours, so plenty of time.
我们6点关门,但最后入场时间是5:15。特展稍早一些——5:30关闭。您还有大约四个小时,时间很充裕。
Perfect. Where should we start? Any recommendations?
太好了。我们从哪里开始看比较好?有推荐吗?
I'd suggest starting on the second floor with the Renaissance gallery — that's our most popular section. Then work your way down. The special exhibition is on the ground floor, Wing B. Here's a floor map.
我建议从二楼的文艺复兴展厅开始——那是我们最受欢迎的区域。然后往下看。特展在一楼B翼。给您一份楼层导览图。
Exploring & Asking Questions · 参观中问路问展品
intermediateExcuse me, could you tell me where the Egyptian collection is?
打扰一下,请问埃及展厅在哪里?
The Egyptian collection is on the third floor, in the East Wing. Take the elevator at the end of this corridor, then turn right when you get out. You can't miss it — there's a big replica of a pharaoh at the entrance.
埃及展厅在三楼东翼。走到这条走廊尽头乘电梯,出来后右转。很好找——入口处有一个法老的大型复制品。
Thanks! Also, I'm curious about this painting here. There's no label on it. Do you know what it is?
谢谢!另外,我对这幅画很好奇。旁边没有标签。您知道这是什么作品吗?
Oh, that's actually on loan from a private collector. It's a Dutch Golden Age piece — we just put it up last week and the placard is being printed. If you scan the QR code on the wall next to it, you'll get the full description on your phone.
哦,那幅实际上是从私人收藏家那里借来的。是荷兰黄金时代的作品——上周才挂上的,说明牌正在制作中。如果您扫旁边墙上的二维码,手机上就能看到完整介绍。
That's really cool. Is there a guided tour available? I feel like I'd learn more with a guide.
太好了。有导览团可以参加吗?我觉得有导游讲解会学到更多。
Yes! We have free guided tours in English at 11 AM and 2 PM. They last about an hour and cover the highlights. The next one starts in 20 minutes at the main lobby. Just look for the guide holding a blue flag.
有的!我们有免费英语导览团,每天上午11点和下午2点。大约一小时,会讲解重点展品。下一场20分钟后在大厅出发。找举蓝旗的导游就行。
I'd love to catch that. One more thing — where's the gift shop? I'd like to pick up some souvenirs.
我想赶上那场。还有个问题——纪念品商店在哪儿?我想买点纪念品。
The main gift shop is on the ground floor near the exit. There's also a smaller one right next to the special exhibition. They have some beautiful art prints and postcards — quite popular with visitors.
主要纪念品店在一楼出口附近。特展旁边还有一个小的。他们有很漂亮的艺术版画和明信片——游客很喜欢。
Great, I'll check it out after the tour. Thanks for all your help!
好的,导览结束后我去看看。谢谢你的帮助!
My pleasure! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask any of the staff in blue vests. Enjoy your visit!
不客气!如果还有问题,随时找穿蓝色背心的工作人员。祝参观愉快!
