Moscow. The inside of the theater is as brightly golden(金*的) as it was before 1917, but the audience(观众) has changed. Many of the men are without ties(领带) and the women are wearing dark clothes. In the nineteenth century this was Moscow’s great opera house.

“Bolshoi” means “big”, and the theater can hold 4 000 persons. Culture has always been important to Russians. That’s why through all these years they have been trying to maintain(一直保持) arts, like ballet, fine opera(歌剧) and plays.

The government gives the theater 12 000 000 dollars each year. Even the New York Metropolitan Opera(纽约大都会歌剧院) can only get half of the money. The Bolshoi is very large, and has its own factories even. About three thousand people work in the theater and 250 ballet dancers are working here and they get the highest pay.
