They are no longer places that one ―should‖ go to but to enjoy.At a science museum in Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body. At the Children‘s Museum in New York, you can play an African drum.There are no ―Do Not Touch‖ sign in some other museums in the USA.More and more museum directors have realized that people learn best when they can become part of what they are seeing. In many science museums, the visitors are encouraged to touch, listen, operate and experiment so as to discover scientific rules for themselves.The purpose is not only to provide fun, but also help people feel at home in the world of science. If people don‘t understand science, they will be afraid of it; and if they are afraid of science, they will not make the best use of it.One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and spare time. Another cause is that the number of young people grow in the population. Many of them are college students or college graduates. They see things in a new and different way. They want art that they can take part in.The same is true of science and history.The old museums have been changing and the government is encouraging the building of new, modern museums.

Write your answer on youranswer sheet.What should take the blame for the weight problems? Fast food or too much TV time? Neither ofthem should take all the blame for it. A group of researchers say that a number of aspects of modern living from lack of sleep to environmental chemicals and to living with air conditioning—may be closely related to the weight problems of many people.Lack of sleep is one of factors. Research in animals and humans suggest that a lack of sleep over a long time can increase appetite (胃口). Studies also show that many adults and children are sleeping less than they used to. In recent decades (十年), adults have gone from sleeping for allaverage of nine hours to about seven hours.There is also evidence that industrial chemicals may increase body fat. These chemicals, which are used in products, change hormonal (荷尔蒙) activity when they get into the body.Studies suggest that people have been getting more and more of these chemicals through the foodchain in recent decades.Another factor that may be making people overweight is air conditioning. The body burns calories when forced to eat less in hot and wet weather, but air conditioning makes it unnecessaryfor the body to make any adjustment.Researchers also list other possible risk factors for overweight, including more older mothers, whose children may become overweight more easily; a number of medicines which can lead toweight gain; and fewer people who smoke, since people often gain weight when they stop smoking because nicotine can make people eat less.No one is suggesting that people should stop working and sleep more, or keep smoking.When it comes to any person‘s weight, what really matters is how much they eat and how much of the food they use every day. That means diet and exercise are still the key.81. Why does lack of sleep will result in weight problem? (no more than 5 words)82. How long do adults averagely sleep nowadays?
