四、（2026·无锡市期末）阅读理解。（每小题2.5分，共10分）
新素材 科普知识 ① Artwork is lovely to look at, but did you know that seeing a real work of art instead of a photo of it makes people more emotional?
② Neuroscientists（神经学家） recently carried out a study at the Mauritshuis Museum. The museum is home to *Girl with a Pearl Earring* by Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer, which was painted in 1665.
③ The researchers used eye-tracking equipment（设备） and a brain scanner called EEG which can record someone's brain activity to notice how people reacted to several paintings. First, the volunteers were asked to look at the real paintings on display, and then at posters of the artworks in the museum shop.
④ The study found that their emotional response was 10 times stronger when they looked at the real paintings. The most active part of the brain while looking at the artworks was the area that controls people's personal identity and consciousness（意识）.
⑤ The team found that the group reacted especially strongly to *Girl with a Pearl Earring*. Results showed the volunteers experienced something called a “sustained attentional loop（持续注意循环）”—but they only had it while looking at that particular（特定的） painting. The volunteers' attention was first attracted to the girl's left eye, then her mouth, then to her pearl earring. This eye movement repeated in a loop, which meant that people looked at the painting for longer.
⑥ The director of the museum, Martine Gosselink, said that the study shows how important it is to go and see art in real life, whether it's paintings, photography or dancing. She added, “It really helps to develop your brain.” The researchers said it would be interesting to do the same study on other famous paintings, such as the *Mona Lisa* by Leonardo da Vinci.
（
A. a painting style B. a famous art museum
C. brain-scanning equipment D. a scientist who studies the brain
（
A. The steps of the research. B. The reasons for the research.
C. The problems with the study. D. The findings of the study.

（
A. To encourage us to go to the Mauritshuis Museum.

答案
1. C 2. D
3. A 【解析】根据第三段内容和第四段中“The study found that their emotional response was 10 times stronger when they looked at the real paintings.”可知，志愿者们被要求看展出的真实画作，而后再去欣赏博物馆里陈列的艺术品的海报，由此可知，这项研究是以真画与海报之间的不同作为基础来开展的。
4. C 【解析】根据第一段内容和最后一段中“It really helps to develop your brain.”可知，文章通过实验对比真画与海报对人的影响，强调看真正的艺术品能激发人的强烈情感和持续注意力。由此可知，本文的主要目的是解释真正的艺术作品的力量。

解析
【分析】
做本题需先通读全文把握科普类文章主旨，再针对各小题题型（细节理解、段落主旨、细节判断、主旨大意），定位原文对应内容，逐一比对选项与原文信息，排除偷换概念、正反混淆、无中生有等干扰项，选出正确答案。
【解析】
1. 细节理解题：根据第三段“The researchers used eye-tracking equipment and a brain scanner called EEG which can record someone's brain activity”可知，EEG是一种脑部扫描设备，对应选项C。
2. 段落主旨题：第4段阐述“看真画时情绪反应更强”的研究发现，第5段阐述对《戴珍珠耳环的少女》的特殊反应，两段均围绕研究结果展开，对应选项D。
3. 细节判断题：根据第三段“志愿者先看展出的真画，再看博物馆商店的艺术品海报”及第四段研究结论，可知研究以真画与海报的差异为基础，A正确；B与第四段“看真画时情绪反应强10倍”相悖；C原文未提及研究仅对名画有价值；D最后一段说“将对其他名画做相同研究”是未来计划，非已完成，故A正确。
4. 主旨大意题：第一段提出“看真艺术品比照片更让人情绪化”，最后一段强调“看真艺术有助于开发大脑”，全文围绕真艺术的力量展开，对应选项C。
【答案】
1.C 2.D 3.A 4.C
