Have you seen the movie The Shawshank Redemption? If so,you might be moved by Andy,who tries to earn
freedom by escaping the hopeless prison. It is hard to imagine what life would be like in prison. However,Old
Melbourne Gaol gives us such a chance. It is a museum in Melbourne,which served as prison between 1842
and 1929.
We experienced being prisoners in the prison. All of us were asked to put down our belongings and then we
were checked. We couldnt hide anything. After a while,we were given cards with fake names and charges. We read
the information loudly and then the “police” explained it in a funny way. For example,a gentlemans charge was
carrying an illegal weapon,which was actually just an umbrella.
Soon we were divided into groups and went to different rooms in the prison. The light was off inside. We could
not see anything. All we could hear was our breath. It was the longest five minutes of my life. I was in a tiny room
with a number of strangers. I could feel the same depression as the prisoners. The police finally opened the door and
led us to the activity area. We relaxed in the sunlight and decided to behave ourselves in the future.
I think Australian museums are quite interesting. They not only add modern technology to historical relics,but
also hold various activities for visitors.
