The increasinglypopular design museums that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlikemost art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general publicThese museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center ofthe hallPe叩le have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for newindustrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales-it is the honoring ofexcellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and theshowcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tellsyou the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with theexhihits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened orpuzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced productswork and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museumexhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is somethingbetween their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their door. Each of these museumshas tried to satisfy the publics growing interest in the field with new ideas. Londons DesignMuseum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electrictypewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strictthan those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous part of our society whilewalking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everydaylife.47.

I didnt shut the door heavily or anything,” I replied. Over the past two months I had either done this or thrown my backpack across the room every time I came home from school. Papa thinks it has something to do with moving to a new house.“I know this move has been hard on you. Leaving your friends and cousins behind is tough,” Papa said, as he put his arm around my shoulder. “What you must remember is that, with a lot of hard work and some time, you will make new friends.”“You dont know how hard it is. This year my baseball team would have won the championship. They wont even give me a chance to pitch (投球) here. All I get to play is right field, and thats the worst!”Papa turned toward me. “Things will get better, I promise you. Let me ask you, do you know why you were named David Lorenzo?”“Yes, your name is David and grandfathers name is Lorenzo.”“Very good, and what makes your grandfather so important?”“He was the first in the family to come to this country and all that,” I answered.“That is only partly correct. Your grandfather was a very great man. In Mexico, he had been a teacher. When he came to America he could only get low-paid labor jobs because he didnt speak the language. It took him two years before he spoke English well enough to be allowed to teach here, but he did it. He never complained because he knew change could be difficult. Did he ever tell you that?” my father asked.I looked down at my feet, ashamed at my behavior. “No. That must have been hard,” I said sheepishly.“Your grandfather taught me that if you let people see your talent, they will accept you for who you are. I want you to always remember what my father taught me, even if it takes a few years for people to see who you are,” said Papa.All I could say was, “Okay.” Then I asked, “What should I do now?”Laughing, Papa said, “How about you pitch a few to me? You need some work.”31. Why was the author unhappy that day?A. Because he moved to a new country.B. Because his baseball team lost the game.C. Because he wasnt offered a chance to pitch.D.
