Modern sculpture rarely surprises us any more. The idea that modern art can only be seen in museums is mistaken. Even people who take no interest in art cannot have failed to notice examples of modern sculpture on display in public places. Strange forms stand in gardens, and outside buildings and shops. We have got quite used to them. Some so-called modern pieces have been on display for nearly eighty years. In spite of this, some people - including myself - were surprise by a recent exhibition of modern sculpture. The first thing I saw when I entered the art gallery was a notice which said: Do not touch the exhibits. Some of them are dangerous! The objects on display were pieces of moving sculpture. Oddly shaped forms that are suspended from the ceiling and move in response to a gust of wind are quite familiar to everybody. These objects, however, were different. Lined up against the wall, there were long thin wires 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. These lights flickered continuously like traffic lights which have gone mad. Sparks were emitted from small black boxes and red lamps flashed on and off angrily. It was rather like an exhibition of prehistoric electronic equipment. These peculiar forms not only seemed designed to shock people emotionally, but to give them electric shocks as well!New words and expressions 生词和短语current n. 电流sculpture n. 雕塑mistaken adj. 错误的gallery n. 美术馆exhibit n. 展品，陈列品oddly adv. 古怪的attach v. 连，系sphere n. 球体magnetize v. 使磁化repel v. 排斥flicker v. 闪烁emit v. 放射flash v. 闪光prehistoric adj. 史前的，老掉牙的electronic adj. 电子的peculiar adj. 奇异的shock v. 令人震动，刺激人emotionally adv. 感情上New words and expression 生词和短语 current n.电流（趋势, 电流, 水流, 气流） - the flow of electricity 电流 - a continuous movement of water 水流 current adj.目前的, 现在的（- current affairs 时事） adv.普遍地, 通常地, 现在, 当前 n.流通, 货币 sculpture n.雕塑 sculptural adj. 雕塑的, 雕刻般的 sculptor n.雕刻家 sculpt v.雕刻, 造型 mistaken adj.错误的（= incorrect, wrong, misunderstood） - The teacher has mistaken opinion of his pupil.
