问题     Some people claim that public museums and art galleries will not be needed because people can see historical objects and works by using a computer. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
选项
答案     Some people today are questioning the role that public museums and art galleries play, because they think historical objects and works can be appreciated through computers. Personally, I firmly believe these places are still highly desirable even in this era of advanced technology.
    Compared with the virtual world presented by computers, museums and galleries are actually real places, where people are allowed to get a more comprehensive and direct feeling about the works on display because their vision is not limited to the size of their screen, but is exposed to life-size objects and their surroundings. By contrast, the vicarious experience people might get with computers is merely a general overview which is less likely to impress or move people.
    More importantly, public museums and art galleries are institutions that collect and safeguard historical or artistic objects and works, and make artifacts and specimens accessible, which they hold in trust for society. In a way, they are the only source of living history and perhaps an insight to the future world that lies before us. So the significance of them also lies in their role as a national memory bank.
    With the rise of technology, public museums and art galleries of today are able to provide the masses with interactive education on the spot. For example, visitors can experience hundreds of exhibits and investigate them further using scientific tools and instruments that are provided to encourage visitors to make observations, look for relationships and draw their own conclusions.
    Now, we can get a clear perspective of the actual roles that places such as public museums and art galleries play.
    And the computer technology is more like an excellent supplement to them but will never be a substitute.
