En: They set off early in the morning.

Zh: 一路上,小明不停地问爸爸,“故宫有多大呀?” “故宫里有什么好看的呢?”

Zh: 锋利的琉璃瓦在阳光下闪闪发光。
En: The sharp glazed tiles sparkled in the sunlight.

Zh: 丽丽最喜欢昆明湖的荷花池。
En: Lili's favorite was the lotus pond by Kunming Lake.

Zh: 她对哥哥说,“这些荷花真美啊!”
En: She said to her brother, "These lotuses are really beautiful!"

Zh: 他们在湖边拍了很多照片。
En: They took many photos by the lake.

Zh: 爸爸告诉他们,“这里,每一年都开满了荷花。”

Zh: 在历史博物馆里,一家人看到了许多珍贵的文物。
En: In the history museum, the family saw many precious cultural relics.

Zh: 小明指着一个古老的花瓶,说,“这个花瓶好像很值钱。”
En: Xiaoming pointed to an ancient vase and said, "This vase looks very valuable."

Zh: 妈妈点点头,说,“是啊,这是几百年前制作的。”
En: Mother nodded and said, "Yes, it was made hundreds of years ago."

Zh: 一天很快就过去了。
En: The day passed quickly.

Zh: 大家走出故宫时,天色已经暗了下来。
En: As they walked out of the Forbidden City, night had already fallen.

Zh: 小明依依不舍地说,“我还想再来看一次。”
En: Xiaoming, reluctant to leave, said, "I want to come back again."

Zh: 丽丽也点头同意。
En: Lili also nodded in agreement.

Zh: 爸爸笑着说,“没关系,故宫还在这里,以后我们还可以再来。”

Zh: 在回家的路上,小明和丽丽默默地想着今天的经历。
