三星堆遗址，中国新石器时代至商周时期早期蜀文化遗址，年代为公元前 2800— 前 800 年，上下延续近 2,000 年。发现有城址、房屋与祭祀坑。祭祀坑内出土的青铜立人像、人头像、龙形器、虎形器、金杖等青铜制品，造型奇特，制作精美。为全国重点文物保护单位。
Today we’ll read a speech about Sanxingdui to learn more about these amazing ancient discoveries.
In a speech, the speaker may share information, opinions and feelings.
1 Dear guests, welcome to Sanxingdui. I’m Lei Yu, director of Sanxingdui Museum.
2 Sanxingdui is the remains of the ancient Shu Kingdom. It lies in the northwest of Guanghan, Sichuan Province.
3 Sanxingdui is such an amazing place that it is now world-famous. Archaeologists have worked there since 1934. Many people before me have put in a great deal of effort. As I continued their work, I often felt like I was standing on the shoulders of giants. The surprising discoveries are the fruit of over 90 years of effort.

4 The finds at Sanxingdui provide a missing piece of Chinese history. Sanxingdui was once a centre of different cultures. This proves that Chinese culture was open to other cultures from a very early period. Different cultures mixed with each other to form today’s China.
5 Sanxingdui is such a wonderful place that people visit it from all over the world. We are now getting more and more visitors. To me, this is more valuable than the gold masks in our museum. It means that more people
are interested in our discoveries. We have opened a door to the past so that people can better understand the history of our country.

6 We can also learn much from Sanxingdui. People in the ancient Shu Kingdom were so creative that today’s people are all amazed by their works. In over 40 years, I have never felt bored with my work in this magical place. We still have many questions to work on before we get the whole picture.
7 Our work is so important that we will never give up. But success never comes smoothly. Archaeologists do not believe in luck. We will work even harder so that people can know more about our wonderful past. Bit by bit, we will bring out more secrets of our history.
