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 self-ie 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."
That US museums impose bans on using selfie sticks reaveals that______.
选项
A、visitors are overcrowded in museums
B、existing rules don’ t work
C、museums are taking action
D、people like to wave the sticks
答案
A
解析
根据题干关键词定位到第二段。末句的第二个分句用转折词yet连接,后面提到“……这再次表明,控制过度拥挤已经成为博物馆的任务之一”,故A项“博物馆里的游客过度拥挤”为正确答案。B项“现存的禁令不起作用”,C项“博物馆正在采取行动”,D项“人们喜欢挥舞自拍杆”均不符合文意。
