There are many interesting museums, exhibition halls and art galleries in the world and people love visiting them. They are especially popular among art lovers and people who prefer food for thought.
Apart from art museums, there are many other types of exhibitions, such as historical, scientific, zoological, ethnographic, armoury, naval, etc. Museums of local lore are also interesting. They show how people lived and worked in this region.
The most famous Russian museums are the State Tretyakov Art Gallery and the Museum of Fine Arts named after Pushkin in Moscow, and the State Hermitage in Saint-Petersburg. The Hermitage houses more than 350 exhibition halls with a very rich collection of art works.
The largest Museum of Great Britain is the British Museum, which is famous for its huge library. The most famous museum in France is the Louvre. I have once visited the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts and it was an unforgettable experience. There I understood that art reflects life and appeals to our hearts and minds. This museum has one of the largest collections of the ancient, oriental and classical art in the world. Apart from paintings, I saw some outstanding sculptures there.
The Pushkin Museum also holds one of the biggest collections of Ancient Egyptian Art. The Tretyakov Gallery is also huge and it contains mainly the works of famous Russian artists. One day isn’t enough to see all of its masterpieces. The museum has seven departments with portraits, seascapes, landscapes and other genres of painting. To sum up, I’d like to say that all museums are interesting and they give us an opportunity to learn something new about different nations and countries.

Internet Addiction
The latest addiction to trap thousands of people is the Internet, which has been blamed for broken relationships, job losses, financial ruin and even suicide. Psychologists now recognize Internet Addiction Syndrome (IAS) as a new illness that could cause serious problems and ruin many lives. IAS is similar to other problems like gambling, smoking and drinking: addicts have dreams about the Internet; they need to use it first thing in the morning; they lie to their parents and partners about how much time they spend online; they wish they could cut down, but are unable to do so. Many users spend up to 40 hours a week on the Internet. Some of the addicts are teenagers who are already hooked on computer games and who find it very difficult to resist the games on the Internet.
‘I cannot put down the phone, which is connected to the Internet. I am crazy about knowing what my friends and classmates are doing and where. It is really like an addiction’, says Jessica Dawsy, a teenage girl from Texas. ‘My brother is also an addict, but he loves to play video games. If I forbid him to play them for one evening, he gets angry and very aggressive. I do not know how to help him.’
Scientists claim that family is the biggest support and can help the teenagers the most. They need to pay attention more to them and offer various activities, such as sports, music lessons and other hobbies.
Write true or false or doesn’t say:
1. Internet addiction has caused many people to get overweight.
2. Jessica Dawsy’s brother is addicted to Internet less than Jessica is.
Answer to the following questions. You should write down not fewer than 10 sentences.
Can you confess that you are an Internet addict? How is it revealed? Would you like to get rid of this addiction? If you are not addicted to the Internet what do you get pleasure from?
