Why People Visit Museums？
Museums are great repositories of mankind’s historical artifacts and achievements in art。 From them we can learn a great deal about the people of the past and their link to the people of the present。 We can also learn about cultures other than our own。 I believe this last advantage is the main reason many people visit museums when they travel。
When someone chooses to visit a new place， he often does so because he is interested in seeing a different environment and a different way of life。 To gain a better understanding of this new culture， many travelers will go to a history or cultural museum。 Even those who never visit museums at home may be inspired by the new sights around them and want to find out more。 Other people choose to visit museums abroad insgroupsto see things that they cannot see at home。 They may have read of famous works of art and look forward to the chance to see them with their own eyes。 Still others may have a specific interest， such as butterflies or eighteenth century furniture。 It is not possible for every community to support a museum devoted to every field of study， but travelers can take advantage of the opportunity to pursue their interests。
No matter why one travels， the journey often offers the opportunity to visit a new museum。 It is an activity that will provide the traveler with a better understanding of the world， no matter what his specific interest is。 That is why I think most people choose to visit museums when they travel to a new place。
人們?yōu)槭裁匆獏⒂^博物館？
博物館是人類歷史文物及藝術成就的偉大寶庫。我們可以從中了解到很多與過去的人們有關的事以及他們與現(xiàn)代人之間的關聯(lián)。我們也可以從中了解其他不同的文化。我認為最后這項優(yōu)點是許多人旅行時會去參觀博物館的主要原因。
人們選擇游覽一個新的地方是因為他們對不同的環(huán)境以及不同的生活方式感興趣。為了更加了解這個新的文化，許多游客會去參觀歷史或文化博物館。即使是在國內(nèi)從不去參觀博物館的人，也可能會受到周圍景物的啟發(fā)而想要發(fā)掘更多東西。有些人在國外選擇參觀博物館是為了要看國內(nèi)所看不到的東西。他們可能已經(jīng)閱讀過一些藝術作品的資料而期待這個可以親眼目睹的機會。還有些人可能對某些事物有特定的興趣，如蝴蝶或18世紀的家具?？墒遣⒎敲總€地區(qū)都能資助與每一種學術領域有關的博物館，所以游客就可以利用這個機會去追求自己的興趣。
無論一個人為了什么而去旅行，旅行常能提供參觀新博物館的機會。這項活動能讓旅行者更加了解世界，不管他的特殊興趣是什么。這就是我認為為什么大部分人到新的地方旅行都會選擇參觀博物館的原因。
