    Art has always been a polarizing subject.Some people like realism,others like abstract.But do you know why some people value art in the millions,while others see the same piece as little more than a child's finger painting?
    Many consider art to be quite random in terms of our likes and dislikes.But according to new research,there may be a scientific reason behind our fondness for certain works.The answer lies in how a person's brain breaks down the visuals of a painting combined with their judgment.
    To prove their theory,neuroscientist 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
    After analyzing the data,scientists found that the same groups of people tended to prefer similar aspects of the same paintings.These characteristics were then grouped into "low-level" features like color and blending,and "high-level" features like the emotion behind the painting.
    From this experiment,Caltech's system was then able to predict an individual's specific taste in art and organize different works into one group,according to the paintings' features and volunteers' preferences.
    Finally,the team repeated the first test on new volunteers.Again,the algorithm was able to accurately predict individuals' art preferences.According to Iigaya,this shows that the factors that contribute to whether a person likes an image are universal,not random.
    Lesley Fellows,a neurologist at McGill University who studies value judgments,stated, "We know a lot about 'how' the brain carries out actions,but 'why' is far less well understood."

         Natalie Doan,14,has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway,New York.Living just a few blocks from the beach,Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. "It's the ocean that makes Rockaway so special," she says.
          On October 29,2012,that ocean turned fierce.That night,Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast,and Rockaway was hit especially hard.Fortunately,Natalie's family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city's bridge closed.
          When they returned to Rockaway the next day,they found their neighborhood in ruins.Many of Natalie's friends had lost their homes and were living far away.All around her,people were suffering,especially the elderly.Natalie's school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
         In the following few days,the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie.Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys.Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild.Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless highrise buildings.
         "My mom tells me that I can't control what happens to me," Natalie says,"but I can always choose how I deal with it."
          Natalie's choice was to help.
         She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help.Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick,who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down.Within days,Patrick's collection was replaced.
         In the coming months,her website page helped lots of kids:Christopher,who received a new basketball;Charlie,who got a new keyboard.Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway.Her efforts made her a famous person.Last April,she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.
        Today,the scars(瘡痍)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway,but hope is in the air.The streets are clear,and many homes have been rebuilt. "I can't imagine living anywhere but Rockaway," Natalie declares."My neighborhood will be back,even stronger than before."

        Most people around the world are right-handed.This fact also seems to have held true throughout history.In 1977 scientists studied works of art made at various times in history.Most of the people shown in these works of art are right handed,so scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common.But what do Leonardo da Vinci,Marie Curie,and Albert Einstein have in common?They were all left-handed along with other famous people including Brad Pitt Prince William,and Barack Obama.In fact,an estimated 13 percent of the world's population may be left-handed.
        Many researchers claim to have found relationships between left-handedness and various physical and mental characteristics,such as blond hair,blue eyes,and sleep difficulties.Other studies have found a higher-than-normal level of left-handed people in certain occupations(職業(yè)),including professional baseball players,architects,as well as prisoners.However,some of these connections are very weak,and others have not been proven.
        What makes a person become right-handed rather than left-handed?One simple idea suggests that people normally get right-handedness from their parents.Studies have found that two right-handed parents have only a 9.5-percent chance of having a left-handed child,while two left-handed parents have a 26-percent chance of having a left-handed child.Another common theory is that left-handed people suffer mild brain damage during birth,which makes them left-handed.
        Whatever the reasons behind it,people's attitudes toward left-handedness have changed a lot over the years.Statistics show that although 13 percent of young people are left-handed,only six percent of the elderly are left-handed.Left-handed children used to be punished until they began using their right hand like other children,but today people who are left-handed are no longer looked down on nor are they considered abnormal For most people today,either case is perfectly acceptable.There are even a number of shops now selling products for left-handed people,such as left-handed can openers,guitars,and even a left-handed camera.

        With the development of the computer,virtual reality(虛擬現(xiàn)實)steps in our life.If something is virtual,then it is created by computer technology and appears as if it were real.VR is a computer system with a special headset(耳機).When you put on the headset,you will look at two tiny television screens.They are so close to your eyes as if you see just one picture and you will believe that you have entered a different world.In many systems,you also wear special gloves.With the gloves you can reach out and touch things in the unreal world.
        The first VR games,which have already been sold round the world,enable you to drive a sports car,fly a plane,or fight an enemy.In the future,it may be difficult to tell the virtual world of the games from the real world outside.However,VR is not just for entertainment.One day,delighted children will be able to learn geography by observing exciting foreign countries without having to leave their classrooms.They will be excited to learn history by visiting the pyramids of Egypt.In addition,businesses will be able to use VR for many tasks.Pilots will be able to practise flying virtual planes before they go into the air.VR can help us improve the world in hundreds of ways.
        However,some people have warned that there could be dangers.It might be dangerous if we do something wrong,or if people do not want to return to reality because it is safer than real life.Besides,we will forget how to live and work with real people.
        There will be some problems with VR,as it is new for us.However,one thing is for sure:VR is here to stay.Get ready to step into another world!
