山东卷高考英语语法填空翻译赏析
Many people have the hobby
of collecting things, e.g. stamps, postcards or
antiques. In the 18th and 19th
centuries,
wealthy
people
travelled and collected plants,
historical objects and works of art.
They kept their collection at home until it got
too big
or
until they died,
and then it was given to a museum. The 80,000
objects collected by
Sir Hans Sloane,
for example,
formed
the core
collection of the British Museum
that
opened in 1759.
The parts of
a museum open to the public
are
called galleries or rooms. Often, only
a small part of a museum’s
collection
is
on display.
Most of it is stored away or used for
research.
Many museums are
lively places and they attract a lot of visitors.
As well as
looking at exhibits,
visitors can play with computer simulations
(
模拟
) and imagine
themselves
living at a
different time in history or
walking
through a
rainforest. At the
Jorvik
Centre in York, the city’s Viking
settlement is recreated, and people experience
the sights, sounds and smells of the
old town. Historical
accuracy
is important but so
is
entertainment. Museums must
compete
for
people’s spare
time and money with other
amusements.
Most museums also welcome school groups and
arrange special activities
for
children.
