Museums are active centers of learning. In a science museum, people can learn about nature and technology as well as physics and chemistry. Visiting museums is a good choice to spend a holiday for people of all ages. But there're some rules when visiting museums. Take an art museum, for example.
Keep quiet. You can talk, but keep the voice down and be polite to those around you. You should tum off your phone or put it on silent. Sounds from your phone may disturb (打扰) others. If a call must be made, you should go outside to make it.
Ask before taking photos. Some museums welcome visitors to photograph or videotape works of art. However, please be careful with the sign "no photography" which means taking photos is not allowed for that work or exhibition. If you take photos without permission, you will be in trouble. Maybe you will be punished.
Do not touch works of art! Your touch may not seem like much, but even the slightest (最轻的) touch can damage the surface of a painting dinosaur stone, and even rust metal. Keep a safe distance between you and each work of art. This helps to avoid accidental touching.
Never bring food or drinks into the museum. It's no good eating or drinking there. The art in the museum will provide plenty of food for thought as well as a dinner for the eyes!
Running and pushing are not allowed in the museum. Proper museum behavior is necessary to avoid accidentally hitting or damaging works of art.
Remember:___▲___ If you obey them, you will surely enjoy yourself in the museum.
