 作文题目

Many people visit museums when they travel to new places. Why do you think people visit museums? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
参考范文
People love to visit museums when traveling to new places. I think this is because museums tell them a lot about the culture of those places. Museums are also fun. It’s almost impossible to get bored in a museum. Every museum will have at least one thing of interest to somebody.
When visiting someplace new, you can find out about the culture of that place in many ways. You can go to a movie or a place of worship1 or a nightclub. Another option is to sit in the park and listen to the people around you. The easiest way to learn about a place’s culture, though, is by visiting its museums. Museums will show you the history of the place you’re visiting. They’ll show you what art the locals think is important.
If there aren’t any museums, that tells you something, too.
Museums are fun. Even if you’re not interested in art or history, there is always something to get your attention. Many museums now have what they call "hands-on" exhibits2. These were originally designed to keep children occupied while their parents were looking at exhibits. However, museums have found that adults enjoy hands-on opportunities just as much as children. These exhibits have activities like pushing a button to hear more about what you're looking at, creating your own work of art, or trying on clothes like those on the models in the museum.
People also enjoy visiting museums about unusual subjects. For instance3, in my hometown there's a museum devoted4 to the potato. This museum has art made out of potatoes. It also tells all about the history of the potato, and sells potato mementos5 like key chains and potato dolls.
People enjoy visiting this museum because it’s different. It’s not something they’d find in their hometown and the museum’s curator enjoy talking about the Great Potato.Museums are popular because they are about us. They reflect our creations6, our values, and our dreams. No matter who you are or what you like, somewhere there is a museum that will amaze7 and interest you.
