Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre， on the south bank of the Thames in the centre of London， looks old and yet quite new， too. It has become a popular tourist site in London today.
莎士比亚环球剧场，位于泰晤士河南岸的伦敦的中心，看上去既古老又清新。今天它已经成为了伦敦一个颇受欢迎的旅游胜地。
In fact， it is a three layer1， polygonal2， round wooden building， which is made of oak3 in the main and can hold 3，000 people. The Globe Theatre we are seeing today is a superb4 reconstruction. The original5 Globe Theatre was destroyed by fire on June 29th， 1613.
事实上，莎士比亚环球剧场是一座由三层、多边形、橡木建成的圆形建筑，可以容纳3000人。我们今天看到的环球剧场是一个豪华的重建物，最初的环球剧场曾在1613年6月29日的一场大火中化为灰烬。
Shakespeare and a group of actors put money together to build the theatre in 1599. It was the first time ever in England actors had paid to build a theatre. So that was very special. And it became famous in London as Shakespeare’s company became the number one acting company of London. So it became from 1599 as the number one venue6 for theatre and certainly the number one venue for Shakespeare’s plays until 1631.
莎士比亚和他的演员们于1599年共同集资建成了这个剧场。英国首次由演员出资修建剧场，这是一件非常特殊的事情。环球剧场随着莎士比亚公司在伦敦的出名而成名。因而环球剧场自1599年始就成了首屈一指的演出场所，当然也是莎士比亚戏剧的演出地点，这种盛况一直持续到1631年。
The original Globe Theatre provided great entertainment for the public for over 13 year before the fire. In 1631 they put on a play about Henry VIII and they had a cannon7 effect to show the arrival8 of the king on stage. But it was a special effect that went badly wrong because a spark9 from the cannon flew up and hit the roof which is made of thatch10. It caught fire and the theatre burnt to the ground during the performance.
最初修建的劇场在火灾之前给人们带来了精彩的娱乐活动长达13年之久。1631年戏剧《亨利八世》上演时，他们在舞台上利用大炮的威力宣布国王的到来。但是这一个特殊效果出现了严重问题，因为火花从大炮上飞出，落在了茅草做的屋顶上。屋顶起了火，剧场在演出时被烧毁了。
Luckily for all of us today， the theatre has been rebuilt.
今天，值得人们庆幸的是剧院已经重建了。
