The Replica That Looked Real
Grammar in this story
While Xiao Lin is on duty at the tiny museum, she sees a small green bowl has appeared in the case.
It looks old like a real artifact, with fine cracks along the edge.
She is nervous like it is her first exam and immediately calls another intern over.
The two check the records but cannot find the bowl's name.
Xiao Lin says, “It is placed as if it was already here yesterday.”
After the curator hears this, she only asks them to look at the bottom one more time.
On the bottom is a tiny training number, with color as faint as dust.
It turns out this is a replica placed by the curator to test whether they only look at the surface.
Xiao Lin breathes a sigh of relief and checks the real artifacts again.
