2.At a science museum in Ontario, Canada, you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless4 electricity passes through your body. At the Metropolitan5 Museum of Art in New York City, you can look at 17th century instruments while listening to their music. At the Modern Museum in Sweden, you can put on costumes provided6 by the Stockholm Opera.

问题1.Paragraph 2___C___
答案:C.Museums Getting Closer to More Spectators
3.More and more, museums directors are realizing
realize意识到
that people learn best when they can somehow become part of what they are seeing.
Instead of being places that one “should” visit, they are places to enjoy.
instead of 而不是
In many science museums, for example, there are no guided tours. The visitor is encouraged to touch, listen, operate, and experiment so as to discover scientific principles for himself. He can have the experience of operating a spaceship or a computer. He can experiment with glass blowing and paper making. The purpose is not only to provide fun but also to help people feel at home in the world of science. The theory is that people who do not understand science will probably fear it, and those who fear science will not use it to best advantage. Many museums now provide educational services and children's departments. In addition to the usual displays, they also offer film showings and dance programs.
问题2.Paragraph 3___E___
答案:E.New Notions about the Management of Museums.
4.One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and leisure8 time. Another cause is the rising percentage of young people in the population. Many of these young people are college students or college graduates. They are better educated than their parents. They see things in a new and different way. They are not content to stand and look at works9 of art; they want art they can participate in. The same is true of science and history. In the US, certain groups who formerly10 were too poor to care about anything beyond the basic needs of daily life are now becoming curious about the world around them. The young people in these groups, like young people in general, have benefited from a better education than their parents received. All these groups, and the rest of the population as well, have been influenced by television, which has taught them about other places and other times.
问题3.Paragraph 4___A___
答案:A.Causes of Changes
5.The effect of all this has been to change existing museums and to encourage the building of new ones.
exist v.存在
existing adj.现存的
ones—museums
risen(过去分词)—rise 上升(近义词increase)
In the US and Canada alone, there are now more than 6,000 museums, almost twice as many as there were 25 years ago. About half of them are devoted11 to history, and the rest are evenly divided between the arts and sciences. The number of visitors, according to the American Association12 of museums, has risen to more than 700 million a year.
问题4.Paragraph 5___B___
答案:B.Increasing Number of Museums and Visitors

Admission13 to museums has always been either free or very inexpensive, but now some museums are charging entrance fees for the first time or raising their price. Even when raised, however, entrance fees are generally too low to support a museum, with its usually large building and its highly14 trained staff.
