北京自然博物馆是新中国成立后建立的第一座科研实力雄厚、馆藏丰富的大型自然科学博物馆。先后被中国科学技术协会、北京市政府、北京市爱国主义教育基地领导小组命名为“全国科普教育基地”、“北京市青少年教育基地”和“北京市优秀爱国主义教育基地”。北京自然博物馆在爱国主义教育和科普教育中发挥着越来越重要的作用。
馆内现有古生物、植物、动物和人类四大基本陈列,另外还包括“恐龙世界”、“水生生物馆”、“人体真奇妙”、“微观生命世界”等专题展览。为更好发挥博物馆教育资源优势,加强爱国主义教育,全面提高青少年科学文化素质,还组织形式多样的科普活动,“北京市中小学生自然知识竞赛”被列为北京市科技周重点活动,“小手牵大手,走进博物馆”——大型幼儿系列科普活动被市委宣传部评为优秀活动。随着社会公众文化消费需求的日益增长,政府不断加大对公众科学教育事业的投入,北京自然博物馆得到了健康稳步发展,逐渐成为集教育、休闲、娱乐于一体的文化场所,并将在传播科学知识和科学精神、提高全民科学文化素养方面起着越来越重要的作用。

The
British
Museum.
英文简介如下:
The
British
Museum
was
established
in
1753,
largely
based
on
the
collections
of
the
physician
and
scientist
Sir
Hans
Sloane.
The
museum
first
opened
to
the
public
on
15
January
1759
in
Montagu
House
in
Bloomsbury,
on
the
site
of
the
current
museum
building.
Its
expansion
over
the
following
two
and
a
half
centuries
has
resulted
in
the
creation
of
several
branch
institutions,
the
first
being
the
British
Museum
(Natural
History)
in
South
Kensington
in
1887.
Until
1997,
when
the
British
Library
opened
to
the
public,
the
British
Museum
was
unique
in
that
it
housed
both
a
national
museum
of
antiquities
and
a
national
library
in
the
same
building.
Its
present
chairman
is
Sir
John
Boyd
and
its
director
is
Neil
MacGregor.
As
with
all
other
national
museums
and
art
galleries
in
Britain,
the
Museum
charges
no
admission
fee,
although
charges
are
levied
for
some
temporary
special
exhibitions.
