Many museums and historical sites are mainly visited by tourists, not local people. Why is this the case and what can be done to attract local people. |
分析：本文一篇报告类的文章，需要讨论越来越少的当地人去参观博物馆和历史古迹的原因，同时也要提出相应的解决方案。
分析原因可以从2方面入手
1. 当地人的角度(人们觉得自己很了解当地的文化，觉得去过了的地方再去就没有新鲜感了，这些钱本来就可以省下来)
2. 博物馆和历史古迹的角度(游客总是选择这类地方作为旅游的首先，可以用最少的时间和开销看到更多的对象。同时这些地方的旅游业收入也是这个城市的旅游收入的重要组成部分，政府也更愿意吸引外地游客而不是当地市民)
解决方案：增加这2类地方的活动多样性，举办有趣的比赛，或者有利于当地市民的讲座。还有适当的降低票价也是可以的。

Museums and historical sites are the sanctuary where we can acquire historicalknowledge and cultural heritage. However, it has became less attractive tothe local recently. As well as discussing the factors contributing to this trend, this essay will try to find itssolutions.
It is apparentthat many local people assumethat they are consciously aware of their cities. And they feel less fresh ifthey have appreciated such places ever before. In addition, many museum andsites are chargeable. As a result,the local prefer to enjoy their leisure time at home rather than in museum or historicalsites.
The inescapable fact is that Museums and historical sitesare always the first option to many tourists. For one thing, they can pay theleast spending as well as enjoy the most local knowledge and scenery. Foranother thing, the revenue of museumsand historical sites account for themost of local tourism. Governments are more than pleased to attract tourists tothese two places rather than to the locals. If this situation still continuesin the future, there will be less local vising to the museums and historicalsites.
One main solution is to enrich their diversity of activities. Museums can hold some larruping activities，such as Healthy Lecture and CivilSporting Meeting. These activities will not only arouse the enthusiasm of citizens, but also add some color to this city. Besides, at some degree, lowingthe price to draw more visits is also a feasible solution.
To summarise, tourists will continuously choose museumand historical sites as their must-visits. However, it is still necessary totake some actions to maintain the locals’ visiting.
