The city of Pompeii(庞贝古城) in Italy gets hundreds of thousands of tourists every year. It is one of Italy's biggest tourist places. Most tourists leave the 2,000-year-old city with happy memories, photos and souvenirs, but some take more. They take some small historic objects. Many people are now regretting this. They say the objects are cursed and have filled their lives with bad luck. An official at Pompeii said he has had hundreds of objects from across the world returned. Many people apologized and wrote stories about their bad luck.
每年到意大利庞贝古城游玩的游客长千上万。这是意大利最大的旅游景点之一。绝大多数游客在离开这座两千多年的古城后带着美好的回忆、相片与纪念品回去,但有的人却带得更多。他们走的时候顺走了一些有历史意义的小物件。现在许多人为此感到懊悔。他们说这些小物件被下了诅咒,使他们厄运连连。当地一位官员说他收到了几百件从世界各地寄回的小物件。许多人为此道歉并且诉说了他们顺走东西后所遭遇的种种不幸。
The official, Massimo Osanna, said one man from Latin America wrote about his life being full of bad lucks after he got home from Italy with a small stone from Pompeii. A man from Spain returned five bags of objects, including a statue he took in 1987. He said that the statue had put "a curse on his whole family". Mr. Osanna now wants to set up an exhibition of all the letters he has received. He said the letters might be more interesting than the stolen objects.
这位名叫Massimo Osanna的官员提到一位拉丁美洲的游客从庞贝古城偷走一颗石头回家后整个生活都笼罩在厄运中的故事。还有一位来自西班牙的男子寄回了五包物件,其中包括一个他于1987年偷走的雕像。听说这个雕像给他全家都下了诅咒。Osanna先生现在打算开办一个他收到的这些信件展览。他说这些信件远比那些被偷的小物件有趣多了。
