Museums in the Digital Age

Museums have traditionally been places where people go to see real objects, such as paintings, sculptures, and fossils. However, only a small part of most museums' collections is actually on display. Many objects are kept in storage because there is not enough space to show them or because they are too delicate to be displayed for long periods. As a result, visitors can usually see only a small fraction of what a museum owns.

Digital technology is changing this situation. Many museums have photographed their artworks in high resolution and made the images available online for free. This allows people around the world to study famous works in great detail, including objects that are kept in storage. For example, the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam has put hundreds of thousands of images online. Some museums also use virtual reality to recreate ancient cities or to show how dinosaurs moved.

At first, some people worried that online access might reduce the number of visitors, because people could see the works without leaving home. In fact, however, many museums have found the opposite. People who view artworks online often become interested in seeing the real objects in person. Museums now see digital technology not as a threat but as a way to attract new visitors, especially young people who are used to getting information online.

(6)Why are many objects kept in museum storage?

正解は③。第1段落に there is not enough space to show them or because they are too delicate とあり、delicate を easily damaged と言い換えている。①は本文に記述がない。②は本文に記述がない。④は本文に記述がない。

(7)What has the Rijksmuseum done?

正解は②。第2段落に the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam has put hundreds of thousands of images online とある。①はVRで古代都市を再現するのは一部の博物館の例で、国立美術館についての記述ではない。③は本文に記述がない。④はfor free とあり、本文と矛盾する。

(8)What have many museums found?

正解は③。第3段落に People who view artworks online often become interested in seeing the real objects in person とある。①は本文に記述がない。②はnot as a threat とあり、本文と逆。④は当初の心配とは the opposite だったとあり、誤り。
