The Carnegie Museum has one of the largest collections of dinosaur bones in the world. The only problem is that the way they were presented all these years was wrong. Visitors might have come away with the idea that all dinosaurs were huge, slow moving creatures. But newer discovery show that dinosaurs were generally smaller and faster than scientists once thought. So directors of the Carnegie Museum decided to rebuild the ten dinosaurs in their collection. And they added new ones. Andrew Carnegie, the wealthy businessman, built the Dinosaur Hall a century ago. He paid for a scientific trip that discovered a new kind of dinosaur. Those bones are still in the collection. But it was time to give the hall a makeover. Now, more than two years and thirty-six million dollars, most of the work is finished. The museum opened its new exhibit to the public on November twenty-first. The collection is now called "Dinosaurs in Their Time." 卡內基博物館是世界上收藏恐龍骨骼最多的博物館之壹,唯壹的問題是長期以來人們展示這些恐龍骨骼的方式是錯誤的。 遊客們可能帶著“所有的恐龍都是巨大的、行動緩慢的動物”的想法離開這個博物館的,但是,最新的發現表明,通常,恐龍比科學家們曾經想象的要少得多,行動也快得多。 所以,壹些卡內基博物館的董事們決定用他們所收集的恐龍骨骼重新拼組十個恐龍,而且他們還要增加壹些新的恐龍。 安德魯.卡內基,是壹個非常富有的商人,他在壹個世紀之前興建了這座恐龍展覽大廳,他還為科學家尋找新的恐龍種類提供資金,這些恐龍骨骼仍在持續的收集之中。但這座恐龍展覽大廳已經到了改造的時候了。現在,經過兩年多時間和花費3600萬美元後,恐龍大廳的改造主體工程已經完成。 今年11月21日,博物館向公眾展示它的新的展品,這壹收藏現在稱之為“恐龍時代”。
