聲音1:1799年7月15日,法國陸軍工程師皮耶-佛罕索瓦·布夏賀上尉發現了可以改變世界的東西。
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.
聲音2:1978年,法國軍隊入侵埃及。大約一年之后,布夏賀上尉領導了一個建筑項目。他和他的隊員要在名為羅塞塔的古埃及港口附近建造一座堡壘。今天,人們將這座城市稱為拉希德。他們在那里發現了一個巨型石碑。石碑上刻有不同文字。布夏賀上尉不知道這些文字寫了些什么。但他感覺這個石碑非常重要。因此,他將其帶到了埃及研究所。研究所里的歷史專家可以對石碑進行研究。
