28、ds finger painting?Many consider art to be quite random in terms of our likes and dislikes. But according to new research, there may actually be a scientific reason behind our fondness for certain works. The answer lies in how a persons brain breaks down the visuals (視覺效果) of a painting combined wit

29、h their judgment.To prove their theory, neuroscientist (神經(jīng)科學(xué)家) Kiyohito Iigaya and his team from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) gathered more than 1,300 volunteers and asked them to rate 825 different paintings from four different art genres (類型).After analyzing the data, scientist

30、s found that the same groups of people tended to prefer similar aspects of the same paintings. These characteristics were then grouped into “l(fā)ow-level” features like color and blending, and “high-level” features like the emotion behind the painting.From this experiment, Caltechs system was then able

31、 to predict an individuals specific taste in art and organize different works into one group, according to the paintings features and volunteers preferences.In a second test, researchers repeated the experiment on six volunteers, showing each 1,000 paintings while inside an MRIa machine that scans a

32、 persons brain activity. The test revealed (揭示) that the different features of a painting are sent to the part of the brain that deals with valuing items, allowing someone to form their overall opinion.

33、o accurately predict individuals art preferences.

To show there is still a lot left to learn about the brain.D. To point out the focus of the future brain research.第2節(jié) 七選五（共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的七個選項中選出填
