In a famous lab trial, a chimp named Sultan put two interlocking sticks together and pulled down a bunch of bananas hanging just out of arm’s reach. Nearly a century later, eager tourists have conducted their own version of the experiment. Equipped with the camera extender known as a selfie stick, they can now reach for flattering CinemaScope selfies wherever they go.
Art museums have watched this development nervously, fearing damage to their collections or to visitors, as users swing their sticks. Now they are taking action. One by one, museums across the United States have been imposing bans on using selfie sticks for photographs inside galleries (adding them to existing rules on umbrellas, rucksacks, tripods and monopods), yet another example of how controlling overcrowding has become part of the museum mission.
The Hirshhorn Museum in Washington prohibited the sticks this month, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston plans to impose a ban. In New York, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which has been studying the matter for some time, has just decided that it, too, will forbid selfie sticks. "From now on, you will be asked quietly to put it away," said Sree Sreenivasan, the chief digital officer at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. "It’s one thing to take a picture at arm’s length, but when it is three times arm’s length, you are invading someone else’s personal space."
The personal space of other visitors is just one problem. The artwork is another. "We do not want to have to put all the art under glass," said Deborah Ziska, the chief of public information at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, which has been quietly enforcing a ban on selfie sticks but is in the process of adding it formally to its printed guidelines for visitors.
Last but not least is the threat to the camera operator, intent on capturing the perfect shot and oblivious to the surroundings. "If people are not paying attention in the Temple of Dendur, they can end up in the water with the crocodile sculpture," Mr. Sreenivasan said."We have so many balconies you could fall from, and stairs you can trip on."
In the first paragraph, the author suggests that______.
选项
A、Sultan is as smart as human beings
B、tourists are easy to indulge in self-pity
C、nowadays people use selfie sticks to get things out of reach
D、camera extenders are useful to people as interlocking sticks to Sultan
答案
D
解析
推断题。根据题干关键词定位到第一段。第一句句意为“一个名叫苏丹的黑猩猩把两根连锁棍连到一起,拉下了它用手够不到的一串香蕉”,接下来文章指出现在游客们使用自拍杆,不管走到哪儿都能随意自拍。所以,这两件物品对于各自使用者都非常有用。故D项“相机延长器对于人们是有用的,就像连锁棍对于苏丹一样有用”为正确答案。A项“苏丹像人类一样聪明”和B项“游客很容易自恋”属于过度推断,原文并没有体现。人们用自拍杆自拍,并不是为了获得够不到的东西,故C项错误。
