summary: parks provide people with a place to amuse themselves and to escape their busy life for a while. in recent decades, however, many parks have been designed to provide entertainment. we call them theme parks. the new parks are usually huge places and have a variety of things to see and do. theme parks have a certain idea—a certain theme that the whole park is based on. for example, a sport theme park will offer visitor sports to play or watch; a history or culture theme park will let us see how our ancestors dressed, worked and lived. the oldest theme park in the world is disneyland. it seemed like a place of fantasy. besides these, we have the marine or ocean parks, the science theme parks and so on to let us enjoy totally different experience from the real world.
