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."
According to Sree Sreenivasan, when selfie-stick users take pictures, they______.
选项
A、should keep quiet
B、may be easily distracted
C、cannot stretch arms three times
D、capture the shots of balconies and stairs
答案
B
解析
细节题。根据题干关键词定位到第三、五段。Sree Sreenivasan出现在第三段后半部分,他说you will be asked quietly to put it away“我们将委婉地请求你把它(自拍杆)收起来”,此处的quietly指“委婉地、平和地”,故A项“(他们)应该保持安静”不符合文意。第三段末句中的three times指“(但是如果你伸出的东西是胳膊的)三倍”,而C项指的是“……(伸出胳膊)三次”,故排除。第五段最后也出现了Mr.Sreenivasan,此处他说明如果人们用自拍杆时不留神就会摔倒或被绊倒。故B项“(人们)可能容易分散注意力”为正确答案。D项是根据文中的名词balconies和stairs出的干扰项。
