The Forbidden City, also known as the Palace Museum , and Gu Gong in Chinese, lies at the city centre of Beijing , and once served as the imperial palace for 24 emperors during the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368—1911). It was first built throughout 14 years during the reign of Emperor Chengzu in the Ming Dynasty (1368—1644). Ancient Chinese astronomers believed that the Purple Star (Polaris)was in the centre of heaven and the Heavenly Emperor lived in the Purple Palace. 【E1】______It was forbidden to enter without special permission of the emperor. Hence its name " The Purple Forbidden City" , usually "The Forbidden City".
The Palace Museum said it has added about 55,000 cultural artifacts to its inventory, some found in storage and others uncovered while renovating a kitchen.
【E2】______In 2010 there were 1,807,558 pieces in the worlds most visited museum.
Some of the newly cataloged items are on display at the museum. The director of the museum said two lacquer boxes held handwritten scripts from Emperor Qianlong (1711—1799)during the Qing Dynasty (1644—1911).
They are a highlight in the newly added artifact. In addition, 105 volumes, or 25 ,908 pages, of poems written by Qianlong were discovered.
【E3】______
" More detailed academic studies followed the process of rummaging through our warehouse," the director said. "Though we had several major statistics of our inventory before, this time we did much more work to categorize and investigate the items. "
Oracle bones and porcelain pieces also were recovered. The 20,000 or so oracle bones, which were unearthed in Anyang, Henan province, can be dated back to more than 3,000 years. A researcher at the museum participating in the survey said they were initially collected by James Mellon Menzies(1885—1927), a Canadian missionary and archaeologist, and were later reserved by other public institutions in China before being transferred to the museum sometime between the 1950s and 1970s.
" Unlike other types of cultural relic, the oracle bones do not belong to old collections of imperial families," the researcher said.
"Most of its contents were never publicly revealed before. The new research on them was of great historical significance. "
He said the broken porcelain pieces were neglected in previous academic research, but now are seen as important items for comparative studies.
Some of the items were not being warehoused when discovered.
Items were discovered when an old kitchen in the palace was being renovated, the director said.
【E4】______ Staff members are digitally recording the collections. He said there are about 400,000 photos of cultural artifacts from the museum on its websites, far fewer than the 2 million images on the British Museum’s website.
"That’s why we’ve set up a special team to take high-definition photos of the cultural relics around the clock," he said.
【E5】______
The agency has strict criteria to ensure collections of today will be similarly important national treasures in 200 years.
" Some museums are eager to get new artifacts, and their number of artifacts can increase by tens of thousands within a few years," he said. "That’s not a good phenomenon. "

E. The Palace for the emperor on earth was thus called the Purple City.
F. The museum, which was China’s formal imperial palace from 1420 to 1911, now holds 1,862, 690 artifacts.
