Changes in Museums
Museums have changed.They are no longer places that one"should"visit;they are places to enjoy and learn.
At a science museum in Ontario,Canada,you can feel your hair stand on end as harmless electricity passes through your body.At the Metropolitan（大城市的）Museum of Art in New York City , you can look at the seventeenth century instruments while listening to their music.At New York's American Museum of Natural History recently,you can help make a bone-by- bone reproduction of the museum's dinosaur（恐 龙）,a beast that lived 200 million years ago.
More and more museum directors are realizing that people learn best when they can somehow become part of what they are seeing.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. 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.
One cause of all these changes is the increase in wealth and leisure time.Another cause is the rising percentage of young people in the population.Many of these young people are college students or college graduates.Leon F.Twiggs,a young black professor of art once said,"They see things in a new and different way.They are not satisfied to stand and look at works of art;they want art they can participate（参加）in."The same is true of science and history. New York's American Museum of Natural History is opened recently.

参考答案: B
参考解析: 第二段中提到，人们在博物馆中可以感受头发直立、聆听古老乐器的演奏，以及帮忙制作恐龙模型等。第三段第三句又提到，参观者被鼓励去触摸、聆听、操作和做实验等。由此可知，人们在博物馆中，可以参与很多活动。
第二段最后一句提到，最近在美国的自然历史博物馆，你可以帮忙制作恐龙模型，这只是表明美国自然历史博物馆最近开办了这项活动，并不是说美国自然历史博物馆最近才开放。
根据第三段的第二句和第三句可知，博物馆鼓励参观者去触摸，去聆听，去操控，去做实验等。
根据第三段第三、四句可知，博物馆所做的这些努力，就是想让参观者从自身体验中获得科学知识，对科学的世界不再感到陌生。
全篇文章并未提到所有的科学博物馆是否是免费开放的。
根据第四段第一句可知，导致这些变化（包括更多人去博物馆）的原因之一就是人们有了更多的财富和业余时间。
根据第四段倒数第二句可知，大多数年轻人喜欢他们可以参与其中的艺术。
