Yesterday he said we could make a time capsule (胶囊) together. What’s a time capsule? It’s a box of things and people in the future may be interested in it.

What 34. shall we put in the box? Liu Tao says we can put a CD with popular music. Then the future kids will probably know what we enjoy 35. listening to.
