　　Topic:
　　What are the purposes of places such as museums and how should they be funded?

　　Sample:
　　Over the past several years, through the painstaking joint efforts by the government and citizens, our city has taken on a new look. People praise highly the beautiful environment and cityscape. Currently, the city government is planning to allocate more funds on the construction of museums, with an aim to upgrade the artistic taste of the citizens.

　　Museums can enrich people’s cultural life. First, by visiting museums, people can cultivate a better taste for arts and enhance the sensitivity to beauty, thus enriching their spiritual life and upgrading their quality. Second, museums provide a kind of place of entertainment and recreation for common people to spend their leisure hours. Most important of all, they are an essential part of spiritual civilization construction. Do remember that a man does not live only by bread.

　　Museums help boost the local tourism. Most museums are symbols of the city as well as the country, which appeal to visitors from home and abroad. For instance, when foreign friends are visiting Beijing, apart from the Great Wall, they are bound to have a tour in the Forbidden City, the most famous museum in China. Visiting a museum is one of the best ways to learn the local culture and touring through a museum provides visitors with a pleasant experience.

　　Museums also play a vital role in education especially to students and children who will learn a lot of knowledge from them. By visiting the historical museum, they can learn the tradition, history and culture of the country and the world. The natural museum can arouse their interest of science. By visiting it, they can find how interesting the nature is. These activities are much more meaningful and valuable than playing video games.

　　Museums are indispensable for the people as well as the country. Therefore, the whole society should take effective efforts to subsidize the construction of museums. It is the government’s duty to invest more money in the building and maintenance of museums. Sometimes the government’s budget is limited, so attracting the foreign investment is also a sensible way. The profitable enterprises and wealthy individuals should also give their hands.
