I disagree strongly with the idea that the same amount of money should go to university sports activities as to university libraries Although playing sports is a wonderful way to learn about teamwork, strategy and reaching your goals, it should not be the principal focus of a university education
Students need the most up-to-date library facilities available to get the best education Many of those facilities are very expensive to buy and maintain These include computerized programs and access to Internet research databases that students can use to find information all around the
world If a university is only offering its students resources of a decade ago, it's depriving those students of a tremendous amount of information
Even the book and magazine budget of universities has gone up tremendously in the last decade More is being published on every subject, and every university wants to have this information available to its students
It also costs money for universities to keep their libraries open Students need to have access to all the libraries' research tools as much of the time as possible Because students are young and can stay up all night studying, many universities are starting to leave their libraries open all night
during exam periods This costs money, because the staff has to be paid extra to be there It also costs money to run the building (electricity, heat) during that time
Students at universities are only going to benefit from their education if they can get to all the tools they need to learn Sports are secondary to the resources that students need from university libraries For this reason, libraries should always be better funded than sports activities

Both libraries and sports activities are welcome in the universities Students could study in the libraries to build up their knowledge They could get the information that they cannot get in the class But knowledge is not all for the students They are willing to have sports frequently
Anyone cannot go on his study without a healthy body Unfortunately, if we have limited
resources to put on the construction and operation of libraries or sport activites, how could we make a decision? I disagree with the statement that universities should give the same amount of money to sports activities as libraries
The librarie is necessary part of a university We cannot imagine a university without any library Student would like to find books in the library to facilitate their study The time in the class is very limited So they could get more academic information in the library On the other hand, students could enjoy sports outside the campus Many people just like running, which doesn't need any investment
Trang 2Considering the operation of the establishments, we should certainly pay more to run a library than the sports activities With the developement of the informationalization of the world, more and more books are published In order to possess those books, universities must pay a lot money
on them While running a stadium is much more easier
Because university is a place to study, it is natural that more students go to the library Whenever you go to the library, you will see diligent students studying there Especially in the examination period, you can hardly find a vacant seat
To sum up, sports activities are very important to students health, but if there is limited money, we have to spend more money on libraries than on sports activities Because libraries are necessities
of a university, which need a large amount of money to run, and many students enjoy them

When people travel to new places, they often choose the local museums as a must-see place Sometimes the museums are even more attractive than the most famous place of interest This phenomenon can be easily explained if the function of museums is taken into account As we have known, museums can help us know the history, the customs and the most representative products of that place
Different place has different history And the most convenient way to know the history is to visit the local museum Last year when I traveled to Xi’an, an old city, I went to the history museum to explore the course of its development With the background knowledge provided by the museum,
I found that it was easier for me to understand the city So the museum can clear away the barriers between tourists and the city by making them familiar with its history To a tourist, the most
attractive part of a place is usually its customs, which can be demonstrated by the local museum
In the Beijing custom museum, the real life of typical Beijingers is vividly shown A tourist can satisfy his curiosity by knowing the origin and characteristics of the quart-yard, the most classical building in Beijing With the help of museums, tourists can have a deeper understanding of the life
of local people
Every place has its own representative products, which are usually handcrafts Tourists can have the access to a wonderful show of these handcrafts in the local museum For example, in Jingde town, the most famous pottery-making place in China, tourists can be excited by the beautiful pottery products and the complicated making process exhibited in the pottery museum It will be a pity for a tourist not to experience the wonderful show of the local products in the museum
In a word, museums serve as a bridge between tourists and the place they travel to That is why people are so eager to visit museums when they travel to new places

Museums are presents the whole world left to us, with which we can learn lots of things we did not previously know, be aware of what has happened in the past as well as what is going to
happen in the future, or gain self-understanding Personally, among countless factors which
influence the reason for visiting museums, there are three conspicuous aspects as follows
Trang 3The main reason for my propensity for visiting museums is that more about local histories can be known in this way Nowadays, many museums are mainly operating for responsibilities to collect, preserve historic treasures and exhibit fine art and antiquities For instance, the National Museum
of Chinese History, the first of these kinds to be established in China has over 300,000 items, including more than 2,000 first-grade pieces items, 100,000 photographs of cultural relics and over 200,000 professional books As you walk around the General Chinese History exhibition rooms, looking at the cultural relics and imagining the past, you may feel that you are traveling along a path spanning the course of Chinese history
Another reason can be seen by every person is that you can see something rare so much as unique
in museums For example, Emperor QinShihuang, the first emperor in Chinese history, is known
as the Emperor Qin’s Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses Today, the Emperor Qin's Terra-cotta Museum, "the eighth Wonder of the world", is not only a treasure house where the tourists can learn histories, but also a main scenic spot of China The vivid pottery figures, colorful uniforms and various weapons, acclaimed as the peak of perfection, are unique forever
Furthermore, visiting museums can enrich our knowledge about various sides, such as preventive measures of a disease, the reason of earthquake, man’s region, the latest development of the laser and so on The inventive genius may be inspired in someone by making exhibits, because
knowledge is acquired more easily in this way than being taught in class
Still, people might list other reasons to explain why they always visit museums while traveling to new places, but the three points I have explored in the above discussion, I believe, are most
relevant to the issue under discussion

Many people visit museums when they travel to new places By visiting museums, one can learn
as much as possible about those places where one visit in a shout time
First of all, one can learn about the history of the places in museums Today, almost every town in the world has realized the importance to set up their own museums to exhibit historic items which belong to their past When we visit a new place, we can get almost everything we need about its history in the museums Last summer vacation, I and several classmates traveled to the city of Taian At the foot of Mount Tai located a museum about General Feng Yuxiang After visiting it,
we knew a lot about Mr Feng and what he did to the local people He was respected by there people, and so did us
Second, visiting museums gives information about local culture After a long exhausting journey, what a good thing to sit in the museum theatre watching a performance about local culture When
we travel to a new place, especially for a limited time when you cannot go everywhere, so you can get as much information as possible about local culture by visiting museums
What is more, visiting museums gives us a good chance to make new friends Surely, there are a lot of people will visit museums like us We can chat with them about what we see and what we hear At the end of visiting, we sit together to have a cup of coffee and we become good friends
By exchanging telephone number, we can also keep in touch with each other late What a good experience!
In a word, more and more people visit museums when they travel to new places because they
Trang 4want to get more pleasure from their journey

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 worship 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" exhibits 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 instance, in my hometown there's
a museum devoted to the potato This museum has art made out of potatoes It also tells all about the history of the potato, and sells potato mementos 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 curators enjoy talking about the Great Potato
Museums are popular because they are about us They reflect our creations, our values, and our dreams No matter who you are or what you like, somewhere there is a museum that will amaze and interest you

area—maybe a revolution or a war, what changed the people's life there, and so on If you want to know the people there, you must know the history there Because it's history what affect people's behavior, emotion and custom If there is a special festival, maybe it's related with a historical affair

Trang 5environment there Why to know that? We can get information about why people there eat this kind of food, maybe it's because of the weather And where is the best place to visit in this area
Go to visit an art museum Which kind of art you find there? Modern art? Then it may be a
modern place Classical art? It may be a city with a long history Maybe you can enjoy an old way
of life there
Don't forget the science museum It can tell you how the people developed their technology,
whether the science there is well developed Do people use new technology to develop this area?
If not, it's the best explanation to the question why people there fall behind with people in other areas
So go to a museum, it can tell you about a new place more than you think

It is an interesting phenomenon that, when traveling to new places they have never been to
before, many people choose to visit museums Why museums are people's common choice? Based
on my personal experience and according to my observations, I think this is because museums tell people a lot about the culture of those places and give them pleasures

important by exhibiting objects and works, some of which might be unique in the world On the other hand, the museums themselves are part of the landscape of the places Many museums are designed and built based on the historical and artistic characteristics of the places where the
museums are located in The Forbidden City Museum is the most favorite tourist site because not only it contains a large variety of historical objects and art works but also it is the representative
of Chinese history and the highest Chinese ancient architecture achievement As a result, people are willing to select museums as their first destination to understand culture of the place they visit
Museums also give people pleasure Even if you are not interested in art or history, there is always something to get your attention Many museums now have what they call "interactive" exhibits The "interactive" activities were originally designed to keep children occupied while their parents were looking at exhibits However, the interesting thing is that adults are keen to these activities
as well as their children It is fascinating to create your own work of painting in a art museum or
to design an appearance of a robot by yourself in a science museum People can be really pleased through performing the "interactive" works in museums, as well as gaining related knowledge

Some people like to eat out at food stands and restaurants, while others like to prepare food at home Often it depends on the kind of lifestyle people have Those with very busy jobs outside the
Trang 6house don't always have time to cook They like the convenience of eating out Overall, though, it
is cheaper and healthier to eat at home
While eating in restaurants is fast, the money you spend can add up When I have dinner at a restaurant with a friend, the bill is usually over twenty dollars I can buy a lot of groceries with that much money Even lunch at a fast-food stand usually costs five or six dollars for one person That's enough to feed the whole family at home
Eating at home is better for you, too Meals at restaurants are often high in fat and calories, and they serve big plates of food-much more food-than you need to eat at one meal If you cook food
at home, you have more control over the ingredients You can use margarine instead of butter on your potatoes, or not put so much cheese on top of your pizza At home, you can control your portion size You can serve yourself as little as you want In a restaurant, you may eat a full plate
of food "because you paid for it."
It's true that eating out is convenient You don't have to shop, or cook, or clean up But real home cooking doesn't have to take up a lot of time There are lots of simple meals that don't take long to make In fact, they're faster than eating out, especially if you think of the time you spend driving
to a restaurant, parking, waiting for a table,, waiting for service, and driving home
Both eating at restaurants and cooking at home can be satisfying Both can taste good and be enjoyed with family and friends I prefer cooking at home because of the money and health issues, but people will make the choice that fits their lifestyle best

In the modern life now, more and more people prefer to eat at food stands or restaurants They think that will save time so that they can have enough time to do their jobs But I still prefer to prepare and eat food at home
There several reasons First of all, you can save money if you eat at home In general, to get
profit, the restaurants ask for more money on the same food you cook at home That is the waste
of money To save money, you may prefer to prepare you food at home with less money
The second, usually, the food in the restaurants is not what you are expecting you may dislike the way the restaurant cook the same dishes as you do at home For example, the other day, I asked for potato in a restaurant After the first bite, I thought it was so awful My mom never cooked such potato for me! The bad lunch even destroyed my mood in that day
The third, if you prepare food by yourself, you will have a happy mood when you eat it, regardless
of the real savor of the food It goes a saying well "labor brings happiness".In addition, you can change your method of cooking considering your taste on that day
The reasons above may can answer why I prefer to eat food at home Cooking even has become
my hobby now Come back and have your delicious food, I'm sure you will like it!:)
