题目

阅读理解 If you've visited a museum, you've seen it. Maybe you've even done it - taken a picture of yourself with a piece of art. Perhaps it's because you love the painting or sculpture, or maybe it was just a famous piece of art and you wanted to share with the world that you'd seen it in person. But the majority of museums forbid photography at the museum. The reasons for banning photography vary. Some museums have pieces lent to them that aren't allowed to be photographed according to the owner's wishes, like most of the exhibits at The Tate in London. Others are concerned about what camera flashes will do to the art; bright lights can damage certain paints. Some want to preserve a certain atmosphere. Sir John Soane's Museum, a small museum in London, states that it bans photography to “maintain the unique, magical atmosphere inside." For other museums, the "no photography" rule is based on observed behavior that seems to fly against the idea of what the museum is for: "Personally, what I've noticed is that people spend more time taking pictures than looking at pieces of art," said Benoit Parayre, the director of communications at the Center Pompidou in Paris. "They take a picture, and don't even stop in front of the paintings." For most museums, it's purely practical. People taking selfies (自拍照) are more concerned with getting their shot than paying attention to where their bodies are, some nearly backing into objects," complained Heidi Rosenau, the Frick's communication director. What's worse, in a busy museum, people taking photos with the art causes traffic-flow issues. Sure, some people only take a quick shot, but we all have a friend or two who spends minutes getting the "perfect" photo - now just imagine them in a museum blocking people from seeing famous works of art that they've spent time and money to come and see. A selfie can be fun and harmless, but it can also be rude and get in the way of other people's experiences. (1) What do we learn from the first paragraph? A . Visitors can copy a famous piece of art.
