   讲解

  TODAY’s key word is Terrifying
  Terrifying 吓人的,恐怖的
  If something is terrifying, it makes you very
  frightened(害怕的).
  Here is an example.
  What a terrifying experience!
  多么可怕的经历啊!
  今天我们就来探索一个恐怖旅馆。在法国南部,有一处存在了几个世纪的地下墓穴。
  The Catacombs(地下墓穴)contain six million human skeletons(骷髅)transferred there gradually between the late eighteenth and mid-nineteenth centuries。
  这么多人类尸骨,为什么都聚集到这个地下墓穴中了呢?原来,因为公共卫生问题,周围的墓园全都被关闭了,生者只能把逝者的遗骸,移到此处。现在,这个地方被人租下来,改造成了一家旅馆。
  A night in the 'world's largest grave', is on offer from Airbnb(Airbnb是一家网站). For one night only, two brave people will be able to stay in the terrifying place for free.
  但是,这一晚不只只是让你睡一觉而已哦。首先,你可以在由头骨和人骨头组成的迷宫中畅游。你还可以在恐怖阴森的气氛下,听着小提琴音乐,享用免费的晚餐。
  And you will also have a bedtime storyteller who will read some catacombs legends(传说) before you go to sleep.
  在这众多的骷髅中,其中一具是法国著名寓言家Jean de la Fontaine。有文化吧。还不是谁想去就能去呢!
  For a chance to be the first people to wake up alive in the catacombs(地下墓穴), hopefuls(候选者) must submit a story of 100 words maximum in English or in French explaining why they're brave enough before October 20th.
  想不想去体验一下呢,想的话就赶快写信给airbnb这个网站吧。反正我是倒找钱也不去哒。
