As we know, museums are buildings with many precious and important objects(物品) from different places. They are kept so that people can go and see them. For example, art museums are places where people can learn about v   81   cultures. More and more popular 'design museums' are opening today, h   82   , play quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found in our daily life, such as fridges and washing machines. The a   83    of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Being different from the art museum visitors, design museum visitors s    84____ feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-products(批量产品) work and look as they do, and how design has i    85   our lives. People can see the better changes of the products. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something they don't understand.

Several new design museums have opened their doors in recent years. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public's growing interest in the field with new i    86   . London's Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less s    87   than those to art museum. Visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected from our everyday life.

If your home is like most others, you've probably got a recycling (回收) bin in your kitchen. Good for you. That's the first step to recycling. But there are other things that both parents and kids can do to make recycling work better.

First, what kinds of rubbish bins are in the other rooms of your house? What about in your bedroom? You've probably just got one rubbish bin where everything goes. Bui it's a good idea to place a special bin for recycling paper. Then when it goes full, you can empty it into a larger recycling bin in the kitchen. You can also put a small recycling bin in the bathroom for any useless paper there.

Before you throw an item into the recycling bin, stop and think if you can use that item again. Take plastic items with yoghurt, for example. After eating what's in them, you can clean them and store them in a cupboard, and later you can use them for storing another food item. You can do the same with the glass jars, too. You can also share your recycling advice with your neighbours.

If you decide to put an item in the recycling bin, it's very important to follow this method. If it has food or drink m it, you must clean it before you put it in the recycling bin. It can't be recycled with food still in it. You should place the item under the running water for a few seconds to clean it. This saves time for the workers in the recycling center. Then they can use their time doing more important work.

The last thing to remember is - don't give up! Recycling is a whole life task and you mustn't just do recycling for a month and then return to your old habits. You can also continue to find other ways to recycle. So make recycling your new habit, and get others involved as well!
