6 . Hosting the Olympics is costly in both infrastructure and money. The 2012 and 2014 Olympics cost upwards of $16 billion. That was merely to create the various buildings needed for the games.     1     This costs the host city much more in continuous maintenance and upkeep. Or the buildings are simply being left to decay into the landscape.

Berlin is a perfect example. It hosted the Olympics in 1936. Afterwards, the Olympic Village was left to crumble in the surrounding wilderness. Recently, funding has been approved to turn the former athlete residences into new apartments. This could breathe new life into the 135-acre site.     2     That is, they continue to host sporting events. Only occasionally do host cities get more creative. Here are three locations that took a different approach. They repurposed their Olympic buildings for decidedly less sporty uses.

The Olympic Village in Lake Placid

Most people entering this place are in a lot of trouble. The complex, first built in 1980, no longer welcomes athletes. Instead, it houses prisoners. It is the Federal Correctional Institution, Ray Brook. The facility originally housed about 1, 800 athletes.     3    

The Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles

This building used to host weightlifting as well as boxing and wrestling matches. It was first constructed in 1924. After the Games, it continued to host boxing and wrestling matches.     4     The building even served as the film set for parts of Rocky.

The National Aquatics Center in Beijing

This building was built for the 2008 Olympics in Beijing and is commonly referred to as the Water Cube.     5     Half of it is now Asia’s largest water park, called Happy Magic Water Cube. There are 13 water slides, a wave pool and a spa. The second floor of the building has an auditorium with 17, 000 seats. There’s a theater, several restaurants, and also a museum of Olympic history.

A．The buildings that are reused usually continue to operate as first designed.

B．It also held other swimming events.

C．Now, it houses about 1, 000 prisoners.

D．The building was renovated after the Olympics.

E．In addition, it was home to roller derbies and concerts.

F．And in some countries, government funds are usually limited.

G．And in many cases, those buildings are often left empty afterward.

7 . A lot of people think that visiting a museum is just something that you do when you go sightseeing.     1    . Here are some reasons why it is important to visit museums.

•Museums teach you about the past

As you know, the main nature of museums is to present history. It shows you something that you may have only read or heard about. Museum artifacts (ATB) tell stories about how they were made, where and why, and what happened to them.     2    They also reveal the evolution and progress of nature, science, culture, and civilization.

•Museums are community centers

Museums are more than collections of some artifacts. In fact, they give you an opportunity to meet people with the same interests. This is a good time to get to know them, share views and thoughts, and learn from each other. By regularly visiting museums, you can become an active part of the knowledgeable community.     3    .

•Visiting museums is an effective way of learning

    4    . To make it clear, informal learning refers to any process of learning something outside the traditional classroom. Just by having a museum experience, you will certainly acquire some new knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values. Furthermore, you may get curious about some artifact or historical event and you continue researching about it on your own.

•    5    

By visiting a museum, not only will you be doing something good for yourself, but also museums will slowly but surely become part of your identity. The education you can get from frequent museum visits will also become part of your identity and soon enough you will define yourself as a person that enjoys learning, culture, and beauty.

A．Museums are great for doing research

B．Visiting museums gives you an identity

C．They show the way people lived years ago

D．However, museums offer people much more

E．Museums are excellent examples of informal learning environments

F．Nothing can make you happier than experiencing beauty long forgotten

G．Sooner or later, you will get to know a lot of smart and successful people
