【題目】A Rose unlike Any Other

The National Museum of Qatar, which opened on March 28, looks like a desert rose.

You may think of museums as dusty collections of old objects, but modern museums are different. They are landmarks and showcases of local culture, offering visitors insight (視角) into the past.

The National Museum of Qatar, which opened on March 28, 2019, is the latest example.

The building’s interlocking structure of steel, glass and fiber concrete makes people think of the petals (花瓣) of a desert rose. These “roses” are actually crystallized (結(jié)晶的) sand, found just under the desert’s surface. “It’s surprisingly complex and poetic,” the designer Nouvel told UK-based design magazine Dezeen.

This pioneering design also makes the building energy-efficient. They form a sunscreen and cast (投射) protective shadows when the sun hits the building from east or west. “I want to build a structure that keeps in line with the condition of the place, to ensure that it offers maximum (最大化的) protection from the sun and save energy,” Nouvel said.

Apart from its unique shape, the museum also includes Qatar’s tradition of both nomads (牧民) and fishermen. It’s committed to preserving and showing the wooden dhows that were once Doha’s lifeblood. These boats enabled fishing, trading and the collection of precious pearls. And visitors can see over 1.5 million of them on the hand-embroidered Pearl Carpet of Baroda, the most extravagant (奢侈的) carpet ever, in the museum.

The museum also seeks to redefine（重新定義）the role of cultural institutions. It’s hoped that visitors will not only observe the exhibitions but also immerse (沉浸) themselves in Qatar’s history. For this purpose, it features a multilayered, 360-degree environment. For example, on the path to the gallery of Life in Qatar, viewers see open markets, camels carrying goods, and wealthy pearl traders drinking tea and doing business.

“It creates a dialogue between the past and future,” according to a museum press release. “The scheme will give a voice to Qatar’s heritage (文化遺產(chǎn)) while celebrating its future.”

【1】When did the National Museum of Qatar open?

【2】What does the National Museum look like?

【3】Does the design make the building energy-efficient?

【4】Apart from its unique shape, what other features does the museum have?

【5】What does the writer think of the museum?

【題目】 It's common knowledge that the woman in Leonardo da Vinci's most famous painting seems to look back at observers (觀察者), following them with her eyes no matter where they stand in the room. But this common knowledge turns out wrong.

A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle (角度) that's 15.4 degrees off to the observer's right-well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them. In other words, said the study author, Horstmann, "She's not looking at you." This is somewhat ironic, because the entire phenomenon of a person's gaze (凝視) in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the "Mona Lisa effect (效應(yīng))". That effect is absolutely real, Horstmann said. If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead, even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at. As long as the angle of the person's gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.

This is important for human interaction with on screen characters. If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feel that a person on-screen is looking at him or her, you don't cut the gaze of the character to that side-surprisingly, doing so would make an observer feel like the character isn't looking at anyone in the room at all. Instead, you keep the gaze straight ahead.

Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars (虛擬頭像) when Horstmann took a long look at the "Mona Lisa" and realized she wasn't looking at him.

To make sure it wasn't just him, the researchers asked 24 people to view images of the "Mona Lisa" on a computer screen. They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected (橫切) Mona Lisa's gaze. To calculate (估測) the angle of Mona Lisa's gaze as she looked at the viewer, they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study. Consistently, the researchers found, participants judged that the woman in the "Mona Lisa" portrait was not looking straight at them, but slightly off to their right.

So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer? Horstmann isn't sure. It's possible, he said, that people have the desire to be looked at, so they think the woman is looking straight at them. Or maybe the people who first created the term "Mona Lisa effect" just thought it was a cool name.

【1】It is generally believed that the woman in the painting "Mona Lisa"

A.attracts the viewers to look backB.looks at the viewers wherever they stand

C.fixes her eyes on the back of the viewersD.seems mysterious because of her eyes

【2】The purpose of the experiment involving 24 people was to _________.

A.calculate the angle of Mona Lisa's gazeB.create artificial-intelligence avatars

C.make sure Horstmann's belief is rightD.explain how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied

【3】What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect?

A.B.

C.D.

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Horstmann thinks it's cool to create the term "Mona Lisa effect".

B.The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence.

C.The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers' judgement.

D.Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention.
