The most unusual museum in London is the Science Museum. In most museums, there’s no shouting and no running, and you aren’t allowed to touch the exhibits(展品). But the Science Museum is different, because it’s noisy! People talk about what they can see and do there, and some of the machines are noisy as well. Visiting the Science Museum is fun and it’s a great way to learn about science because you can work things out and try out ideas.
When I visit the Science Museum, I go to the Launch Pad. This is my favourite room because you can do physics experiments. For example, if you want to fill a bag with falling sand, you have to move a kind of truck on wheels into the correct position. I also go to the Rocket Show. You can learn how we travel into space and back again.
Then I go upstairs to Human and Nature room. You can compare your speed with animals there. You hear a noise and push a button(按钮). If you aren’t fast enough, the lion catches you! I’m faster than all my friends, but the lion still catches me.
There are also rooms on transport, the environment and space technology, as well as maths, physics and chemistry.
You can do a lot of things in this museum, but you have to obey some rules as well. For example, you mustn’t take photos of the exhibits in the museum. But you can buy postcards of them in the museum shops.
Above all, the Science Museum is free. That means you can drop in for a few minutes or you can stay as long as you like—it’s open every day, from 10 am to 6 pm. So if you ever go to London, make sure you visit the Science Museum. It’s my favourite museum in the whole world.

Many people think the 1 time is spent, the more work will be done. So students have to spend the whole day doing school work 2 the three meals.
Modern students have many 3 . They love sports, computers and music. A 4 holiday can get them away from too much school work , and they can do what they like. But still teachers do not 5 it. Because they have too much homework, they have no time to enjoy themselves. Students are really tired of their weekend homework. So they don’t do it 6 Sunday night. And there is not enough time to finish the homework carefully. The poor weekend homework usually makes teachers 7 .
Things always get worse 8 right ideas. Too much school work makes students lose 9 in learning. It’s also bad for their health.
