从过去一下子回到了现在。
you have returned from a past.
王渊源：真的是这样。
Yes, indeed.
那不知道过去这些房子

是干什么用的呀。
were used for.
韩佳： 这些房子又叫石库门，
These houses, known as Shikumen,
是上海的老式居民房。

dwelling houses.
在过去，
In the past,
占到了上海住宅的六成以上。
they accounted for over 60% of
Shanghai’s dwellings.
不过现在已经越来越少了。

王渊源：从外面看不出来，
I didn’t imagine when I
was outside that
没想到这石库门里面还挺大的呀。
it would be so spacious inside
a Shikumen house.
韩佳： 是啊。

上面有很多老上海民居的照片，
There were many photos of
old Shanghai houses,
和这房子里基本上是一模一样。

as this one.
韩佳： 那是当然的了。
That’s for sure.
这套房子里，

可都是一些老摆设、老家具。
all the furnishings are old.
你看看那小电扇，
Look at this little electric fan
还有那个屋子里的小唱片机。
and the little gramophone
in that room.
那个都是现在很难找得到的。
All these are hard to come
by now.
王渊源：你对这房子的情况
