Now there are more than 180 museums in Chengdu. Last year, the city’s museums held(举办) over 2,700 learning activities. They were very popular with students. More than 1,380,000 children took part in them.

On May 18 this year, Chengdu Museum and SPGS International School Chengdu held an activity together to celebrate(庆祝) International Museum Day. More than 20 students of the school, who come from different countries, like Chile, Canada and Singapore, took part in it.

During the activity, the students visited the exhibition(展览会) on the city’s history and culture(文化). They also learned more about the exhibits through special lessons. They even made imitations(仿制品) of the exhibits there.

Maia Santana Fong, a girl from Cuba, was one of them. She sat quietly before a small rhino sculpture(犀牛雕塑) and carefully colored it with bright paint. It was an imitation of a stone rhino nearly 2,000 years ago.

“I find the activity very interesting. The museum trip helped me get a better feel for the rich Chinese culture,” said Maia Santana Fong.

In the past, students usually learned about the exhibits through pictures and videos in classrooms. But now they can see them with their own eyes at the museum. It helps students study China’s history and culture better.

Ran Jing, director of the museum’s social education department, said, “The activity was just like a bridge between the school and the museum, between Chinese people and people from other countries, by telling China’s stories through the exhibition.”

28. The underlined words “took part in” probably mean “_______”.
