Hi,
" Space Museum to spend $34 million in renovation."=
It means something like " Space Museum is going to spend ....."
( Of course we do not mean space museum itself here.
We imply the people who run this museum will spend ........ on something.)
About your doubts, I just want to tell you that
reports or writers tend to change something in their announcements or sentences just to attract you.
Although those are againist the English grammar , it is a way of expressing themselves in a cool way.
Have you ever seen newpaper titles like
"TWO MEN KILLS IN A FIRE " or something like this?
:)
It means " Two men were killed in a fire.....".
You have just looked at the title above , haven't you?
I bet you are still looking at it.^_^
That's how this sort of writing works.
When you watch the news on TV, you may notice something like the following as well.
******* TVB news!!!!!!!!!!!!! *************
Reporter: Donald Tsang said the XXX will continue.
Please take a look at the modal verb " will" in the above sentence.
In English grammar, it should be " Donald Tsang said the XXX WOULD continue.
Here the reporter wants to show that the XXXX ( WILL)continue.
(It is NOT in the past--- it is stilling going on.)
When you watch TV tonight, pay attention to the English subtitles.
I am certain that you will be able to spot something similar .
Until next time, bye for now.
:)
