What one person considers a priceless masterpiece others might see as nothing more than a giant black square. But theres one very specific kind of painting that almost everyone sees the same way-the kind with the strange eyes that seem to follow you around the room. So what causes this optical illusion (视觉错觉) and how do artists achieve this effect?It turns out, for even a moderately skilled artist, this effect isnt a difficult thing to achieve, In fact, the artists need to use a little illusion of depth, making the person depicted on the canvas appears somewhat 3D on a 2D canvas, and to adjust .the gaze (凝视) of the eyes so that they would be looking at someone standing right in front of the picture.So what exactly is going on here in our brains that then makes it seem like the eyes follow you even if you move away from being front and center? As demonstrated by a team of researchers from Ohio State University, as you move to the side, the near? and far points of the 2D image dont really change. These near and far points are defined as visible points that, if the image was 3D, would appear nearest and furthest away from the viewer at a given angle.The idea is simple. No matter what angle you look at a paining from, the painting itself doesnt change. Youre looking at a flat surface. The key is that the near points and far points of the picture remained the same no matter the angle the picture was viewed from. When observing real surfaces in the natural environment the near and far points vary when we change viewing direction. When we observe a picture on the wall, the visual information that defines near and far points is unaffected by viewing direction. Still, we willingly accept and interpret the thing in the painting as if it were a real object.Thus, because the perspective, shadows, and light on the painting dont change as you move around, if the eyes in the painting would be staring directly at the observer who is standing in front of the painting, it creates something of an optical illusion in your brain so that the eyes will continue to seem to stare at you as you move to the side.In contrast to the eyes following you trick, if the artist tweaks the painting a bit, for example the artist adjusts the gaze of the eyes so that the eyes are looking off somewhere else instead of directly looking at a potential observer, no matter where you stand, the eyes will never seem to be looking at you.The technique first began popularly showing up in art around the 14th century when the artist and architect Fillipo Brunelleshi introduced the art world to the idea of linear perspective, being painting with the idea of everything in the picture converging (聚集) on a specific point on the horizon, creating the illusion of depth. Linear perspective, combined with skilled use of light and shadow, allows artists to create masterfully realistic paintings, including sometimes of people that stare at you creepily no matter where you stand.（1） Whats the writers purpose of writing Paragraph 1? A . To lead in the question why staring eyes seem to follow us in a painting,B . To make a comparison between a priceless masterpiece and a black square.C . To introduce the topic that the optical illusion can make the painting look real.D . To prove that people can think alike when they admire a certain kind of painting.（2） What can we learn from the passage? A . The visible points of the image wont change in the natural environment.B . The near and far points of a painting are affected by our viewing direction.C . The viewing direction of viewers can make the image in the painting look tealD . The optical illusion in our brain makes us feel the eyes in the painting staring at us.（3） The 3rd paragraph is mainly about _. A . who took part in the research.B . how long the research lasted.C . what was found in the research,D . how the research was performed.（4） Whats the meaning of the underlined word tweak in the passage? A . changeB . decorateC . moveD . turn17. （4分） (2019广州模拟) 阅读理解 Have you wondered why you have two eyes and why they are set close together on the front of your face? The reasons are simple and important.Your eyes are like two small cameras. A camera catches an image of an object and records it on film. Similarly, when you look at something, each eye takes in what it sees and sends this image to the back of the eyeball. Because your eyes are set close together, they see the world from about the same height but from a little different angles. While your right eye sees an object a little to the right, your left eye sees the same object a bit to the left. Working as a team, the eyes send the images to your brain, then your brain put them together and you see a single image in the center.Seeing in stereo (立体) means seeing with two eyes working tighter, which is called stereoscopic sight. This allows you to see the world in 3D. Seeing depth helps you to judge how far it is between you and the objects you see, and then adjust to the changing angle so that you can see something clearly when you move closer or farther away. If images are coming from a single eye, however, only height and width can be perceived. So if you see with one eye, you will get a 2D image, as in a photograph.Now consider why your two eyes are on the front of your face. Think of other animals just like you. They are all hunting animals, like lions and tigers. This provides a field of sight about 180 degree wide, which is called binocular sight. On the other hand, animals that are hunted have eyes on the sides of the head, which provides nearly 360-degree field of sight. However, they dont have stereoscopic sight. It is difficult for them to judge how far a danger is.With both stereoscopic and binocular sight, humans and hunting animals share the ability to see from side to side and to judge how far it is from other objects. If you think it would be great to have another kind of sight, perhaps with hundreds of tiny eyes like many insects do, think again! Each tiny insect eye sees only a tiny part. Besides, what if you needed glasses? Be glad for the eyesight that you have.（1） In Paragraph 2, the writer wants to. A . tell us how our two eyes worksB . show the importance of eyesC . compare our eyes with camerasD . suggest using two eyes properly（2） The underlined word perceived in Paragraph 3 means. A . setB . takenC . seenD . made（3） Which of the following statement is TRUE? A . Your right and left eyes gain the same image when looking at the same object.B . 2D images can always show depth, height and width.C . Animals that are hunted usually see the world through stereoscopic sight.D . Fish with eyes on the sides of their heads have nearly 360-degree field of sight.（4） In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that seeing in stereo _. A . is similar to the way a camera worksB . is an ability humans are lucky to haveC . would be better for a wilder field of sightD . helps people to have better sight than animals（5） What is probably the best title for this passage? A . Seeing in stereoB . Protecting your eyesC . Treasuring your eyesD . Seeing with eyes18. （4分） (2019兰州) 阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Recently, a video story has spread among people.James Anthony has cleaned the halls of Hickerson Primary School for 15 years.
