8、d by Chinese directors.B If you have ever tried to catch a resting butterfly,you know it is surprisingly difficult.A new study helps explain why.Previous research had suggested that a butterflys overhead wing clap forces the insect forward.Researchers thought the wing clap likely formed a pocket of

9、air that shoots out like a jet,but no one had tested that until now.To understand their flight,they placed six butterflies one at a time inside a wind tunnel which was filled with smoke and then used a laser to light up the smoke just behind the butterfly.Four high-speed cameras were placed in the t

10、unnel to take photos of the movement of the butterfly and the-smoke as the butterfly was taking off.This let the researchers create a 3D picture of that air movement as the insect flapped its wings.They observed a total of 25 takeoffs by six butterflies.Each included up to three wing beats after tak

11、eoff.The butterflies proved more likely to clap their wings together during the first few wing beats than later in flight.The photos show that forces created by the wings give rise to a flight path.The butterflies rise as their wings move down and shoot forward as their wings move up.A wing clap on

12、takeoff,paired with a quick tum,allowed the butterflies to fly away quickly.They also noticed the wings formed an air pocket just before clapping and that the wings flexibility and this pocket improved the jet force created by the clap.“The study is exciting,”says Ayodeji Bode-Oke,a mechanical engin

17、rflies Run Away Quickly?C A Bridge Linking Art and the Audience According to a 2018 report,people aged between 16 and 24 make up about 15 percent of the population but only 10 percent of museum-goers.Similarly,people aged over35 go half as much as you would expect from their population size.We have

18、reached the point of recognising the disconnection between art and the audience but havent yet determined how to bridge the gap.Two answers to tackling this challenge lie in telling a greater diversity of art histories and communicating these stories in more accessible ways.In 2018,a radio program c

19、alled Art Matters was started with the aim of discussing art from a pop-culture viewpoint with topics that would engage younger and more diverse audience.It offers an accessible pathway to art history with conversations on different topics.Art history is about storytelling;art content shines when th

20、ere is an effort to bring audience along for the discussion.More traditional institutions are paying attention.Recently theGettyMuseumissued a social-media challenge for people to recreate paintings using items they had at home.Users displayed incredible creativity,and the museum was flooded with su

21、bmissions.This reaction proves that there is a potential desire for the audience to engage with art topics if the format is appealing.Since many people feelintimidatedand think that theres a base level of understanding required to join the conversation,the Getty initiative serves as a reminder that

22、there are many pathways to engaging with it.Another result of the Getty challenge was the exposure given to a diversity of artworks.The famous opera singer Peter Brathwaite,for example,made scores of attractive recreations highlighting centuries of black paintings.His efforts opposed the idea that t

23、here were not many historical paintings of black figures.It is extremely important that we do a better job of showing the complex and diverse stories that are represented in art.Social media have offered a platform for people who have not traditionally had a seat at the table.Anyone can recognise a

24、gap in the field and address it.Accounts have gathered tens of thousands of followers.They are the proof that there is hunger to hear these art histories,and these themes work brilliantly for museum programming.But there is only so much that can be done without the museums and galleries changing mea

25、ningfully from within.We need to see a better balance of these stories represented in permanent collections.We also need a much wider diversity of people and interests represented on board.Ensuring that art-and writing and talking about art-is able to continue on the rising generation of storyteller

26、s,inside and outside of institutions,getting the funding and support they need to paint a brighter picture for the part.8.What challenge is the author trying to tackle?A.People doubt a great diversity of artworks.B.Fewer and fewer young people go to museums.C.Art appears too distant from common audi

30、 into six groups and gave them an example:a restaurant chain.The more original their ideas,the better,I said.Finally,five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains.The sixth proposed a catering service.Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult,I expressed my disappointment.My

31、 students were middle managers,financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies.They were without talent or opinions,but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness.The scene I just described cam

32、e in different forms during my two years teaching at the school.Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review.Case study debates were written up and just memorized.Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy,better than inventing and creating.InChina

35、endent thinking and openness,and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.At last,forChina,becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnership with top western universities.Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to t
