Text 课文
How might some of the exhibits have been dangerous?
Modern sculpture rarely surprises us any more.
Rarely = seldom
本句= We are not surprised at modern sculpture .
The idea that modern art can only be seen in museums is mistaken.
that引导同位语从句, 修饰限定the?idea?的内容。
-- The idea that one can learn English well in English-speaking countries is mistaken.
Even people who take no interest in art cannot have failed to notice examples of modern
sculpture on display in public places.
重点句式结构：
who?take?no?interest?in?art?修饰说明people
take?interest?in 对…感兴趣 / show?interest?in 显示对…的兴趣
take?delight?in 对…感到高兴 / take?pride?in 对…感到骄傲
cannot, failed?to?双重否定意味着肯定（强调肯定的语气）
-- He must have passed his examination last week.
= He cannot have failed to pass his examination last week.
-- You must keep your promise. = You can‘t fail to keep your promise.（n.许诺）
on?display / on?show? 展览, 展出
Strange forms stand in gardens, and outside buildings and shops.
We can see sculptures everywhere
We have got quite used to them. Some so-called ‘modern‘ pieces have been on display for
nearly eighty years.
get used to… = get accustomed to… 习惯于… （accustomed adj.通常的, 习惯的）
用夸张的口吻表明事实
In spite of this, some people -- including myself -- were surprise by a recent exhibition of
modern sculpture.
in?spite?of?this 尽管如此（作者表明了自己的观点）
The first thing I saw when I entered the art gallery was a notice which said: ‘Do not touch
the exhibits.
重点句型：The?first?thing...was?a?notice?which?said...
I saw是定语从句省略了that
Some of them are dangerous!‘ The objects on display were pieces of moving sculpture.
The sculpture can move.
Oddly shaped forms that are suspended form the ceiling and move in response to a gust of
wind are quite familiar to everybody.
句子主干：Oddly?shaped?forms?are?familiar?to?everybody
that引导的定语从句用来限定shaped?forms
that?定语从句中：in?response?to = in?reaction?to 作为对…的反应
be?familiar?to?sb 对某人来讲很熟悉
-- The house is familiar to him.
-- I don‘t really remember where I have seen him before, but he looks very familiar to me.
be familiar?with?sth 熟悉, 熟知
-- Are you familiar with the play of Shakespeare?
-- I‘m familiar with that book too.
These objects, however, were different. Lined up against the wall, there were long thin wires
attached to metal spheres.
lined?up（过去分词做状语）与long?thin?wires为被动关系
attached?to?metal?spheres（过去分词做定语）修饰long?thin?wires.
there were long thin wires attached to metal spheres.
= there were long thin wires that were attached to metal spheres.
The spheres had been magnetized and attracted or repelled each other all the time.
In the centre of the hall, there were a number of tall structures which contained coloured
lights.
the?center?of?the?hall 展厅的中央
coloured?lights 彩色灯泡
These lights flickered continuously like traffic lights which have gone mad.
continuously? adv.不停止的
go?mad 发疯, 发狂（= run?mad）
-- He must have gone mad to do such a thing.
Sparks were emitted from small black boxes and red lamps flashed on and off angrily.
on and off = continually = Intermittently adv.间歇的, 断断续续的
on and on = continuously adv.无间断地, 连续不断地
-- It has been raining on and off since noon.
It was rather like an exhibition of prehistoric electronic equipment.
It was rather like... = It was more like...
These peculiar forms not only seemed designed to shock people emotionally, but to give them
electric shocks as well!
not only...but ...as well
seem(系动词)＋名词／形容词／分词
