Answer key
In contrast, the dancing in Dirty Dancing while as 
technically accurate as Gene Kelly’s lacks a sense of 
joy. In this scene, Johnny goes on stage to perform the 
last dance of the season at a holiday resort. He pulls 
‘Baby’ on stage with him. The dance itself is nothing 
special by today’s standards and not as entertaining. 
I would also argue that the whole film is not as good as 
Singing in the Rain, in terms of plot and entertainment 
value. The latter is clearly an all-time classic, while 
Dirty Dancing is just a typical film from the 1980s.

Introduction
The purpose of this report is to assess the science 
museum’s suitability for school visits.
Findings
The science museum is one of the largest of its type in 
the country. It was recently renovated, and many new 
exhibits have been installed which make the visitors’ 
experience a lot more ‘hands on’. As a result, it is 
suitable for students with a range of learning styles.
Range of exhibits
The museum covers physics, biology (natural history) 
and chemistry. The physics exhibits are particularly 
interesting and clearly demonstrate the principles and 
laws students will have come across in lessons, such 
as Archimedes’ principle and Newton’s laws on gravity. 
The natural history part of the museum contains the 
oldest exhibits. Many of them, such as the dinosaur 
bones, still maintain a fascination for students, 
even if they don’t necessarily correspond to today’s 
curriculum. 
In addition, there are many interesting exhibits on 
elements and chemical reactions.
Educational workshops
The museum has an educational department, which 
is happy to work with teachers to come up with 
worksheets and workshops specific to a school’s 
needs. The worksheets are a very high standard and 
they mean that any visit can reinforce and clarify 
information learned in class.
Non-educational facilities
The museum has a room where students can eat 
their packed lunches and have pre- or post-visit talks 
and feedback. Furthermore, there is easy parking 
for coaches and wheelchair access for disabled 
students.
Conclusion
The museum provides an exceptional opportunity for 
students to have an enjoyable and educational school 
trip, because of the outstanding facilities on offer.
