should museum tickets be free? When it comes to the debate that whether the museum should be run for free to the public, views vary from person to another. As far as I am concerned, I have to inclination that museum tickets should be free and I do hold the opinion that both the museum and visitors can be benefit from that policy. More and more people are flooded into the museum when they have an accessibility to more precious artefacts and antiques without any sacrifice. The basic function of museum are educational use. That is, more and more people will develop the awareness to preserve the past. In another perspective, these items exhibited in the museums are the treasure of the whole human race, therefore, everyone has the right to appreciate them and so that they can learn more about the wisdom and diligence of their ancestors. Others who argue that free ticket is disaster for the museums may influenced by the following reasons. First of all, museum is likely to be trapped by a financial crisis when they lost the most common fund resources. What is worse, the museums might be filled with people and sometimes the visitors have difficulties to move around. In this situation, people have no appetite for the art any longer and as a result, this will also pose a great threat to people`s safety of both their belongings and themselves. We must confess that these problem do exist when that measure are carried out. Nevertheless, they can all be controlled if proper steps can be taken. More safeguards are needed to make sure the safety. On top of that, more advanced cameras for surveillance can be installed in the museum to prevent these artefacts and antiques from stolen. Finally, the governments are good resources of money and they are accountable to support the museum to run smoothly. Based on what have been discussed above, we can draw a safe conclusion that the merits of free tickets for museums are significantly more than its demerits.
