声音1:1799年7月15日,法国陆军工程师皮耶-佛罕索瓦·布夏贺上尉发现了可以改变世界的东西。
Voice 2: In 1798, the French Army invaded Egypt. About a year later, Captain Bouchard was leading a building project. He and his crew were building a fort near an old Egyptian port city called Rosetta. Today people call this city Rashid. There, they found a large stone. Different writings covered the stone. Captain Bouchard did not know what the writings said. But he sensed that the stone was very important. So, he brought it to the Institute of Egypt. There, history experts could study it.
声音2:1978年,法国军队入侵埃及。大约一年之后,布夏贺上尉领导了一个建筑项目。他和他的队员要在名为罗塞塔的古埃及港口附近建造一座堡垒。今天,人们将这座城市称为拉希德。他们在那里发现了一个巨型石碑。石碑上刻有不同文字。布夏贺上尉不知道这些文字写了些什么。但他感觉这个石碑非常重要。因此,他将其带到了埃及研究所。研究所里的历史专家可以对石碑进行研究。
