Ⅰ.阅读理解

The mystery of Leonardo da Vinci's famous Mona Lisa painting has been cracked with the help of emotion­recognition software by scientists recently.According to the findings which will be published in the New Scientist，Mona Lisa's exact emotions were 83 percent happy，9 percent disgusted，6 percent fearful，and 2 percent angry.

Dr Nicu Sebe，a professor at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands，used emotion­recognition software to come up with the exact analysis of Mona Lisa's emotional state.The software rated features such as the curvature(曲度) of the lips and crinkles around the eyes.

The program draws on a database of young female faces to get an average“neutral”expression.The software uses this average expression as the standard for comparisons.Other applications of emotion­recognition software might be to detect terror suspects on the basis of their emotions as well as their physical characteristics.

Possibly the most famous portrait of all time，Mona Lisa's mystic expression has puzzled art lovers for five centuries.In 2003，a scientist from Harvard University said the way the human eye processes visual information meant her smile was only apparent when the viewer looked at other parts of the painting.

The painting，which is on public display in the Louvre in Paris，was painted between 1503—1506.It was thought to be named after the sitter(被画像的人)，most likely the wife of Francesco del Giocondo，an Italian living in Florence.

Mona Lisa features in the opening of Dan Brown's hit novel The da Vinci Code when the curator(馆长) at the Louvre is found dead near the painting.
