The admission is free and we open every day from 10:00 to 15:30. You can explore 10 departments including: The Department of Africa, Oceania and the Americas The collection of the Department of Africa, Oceania and the Americas includes around 350,000 objects. The scope of the collection is contemporary, and historical. It includes most of Africa, the Pacific and Australia, as well as the Americas. All of the collections were got during the nieenth and twentieth centuries and date from this time. The Department of Asia The Department of Asia covers the material and visual cultures of Asia – a vast geographical area of Japan, Korea, China, Central Asia, Afghanistan, South Asia and SouthEast Asia. The collection dates from about 4000 BC, to the present day. It represents the cultures and ways of life of local people and other minority groups. The Department of Greek and Roman Empires The Department of Greek and Roman Empires features antiquities (古董 ). It has one of the most prehensive collections of antiquities from the Classical world, with over 100,000 objects. These mostly range in date from the beginning of the Greek Bronze Age (about 3200BC) to the time of the Roman emperor Constantine in the fourth century AD. 60.

That‘s the idea behind the Emotion Evoking System developed by Shigeo Yoshida and colleagues at the University of Tokyo in Japan. The system can manipulate, or in other word, control your emotions and personal preferences by presenting you with an image of your own smiling or frowning face. The principle that physiological changes can drive emotional ones ─ that laughter es before happiness, rather than the other way around ─ is a wellestablished idea. The researchers wanted to see if this idea could be used to build a puter system that manipulates how you feel. The system works by presenting the user with a webcamera image of his or her face ─ as if they were looking in a mirror. The image is then subtly altered with software, turning the corners of the mouth up or down and changing the area around the eyes, so that the person appears to smile or frown (皺眉 ). Without telling them the aim of the study, the team recruited (招募 ) 21 volunteers and asked them to sit in front of the screen while performing an unrelated task. When the task was plete the participants rated how they felt. When the faces on screen appeared to smile, people reported that they felt happier. On the other hand, when the image was given a sad expression, they reported feeling less happy. Yoshida and his colleagues tested whether manipulating the volunteers‘ emotional state would influence their preferences. Each person was given a scarf to wear and again presented with the altered webcam image. The volunteers that saw themselves smiling while wearing the scarf were more likely to report that they liked it, and those that saw themselves not smiling were less likely. The system could be used to manipulate consumers‘ impressions of products, say the researchers. For example, mirrors in clothingstore fitting rooms could be replaced with screens showing altered reflections. They also suggest people may be more likely to find clothes attractive if they see themselves looking happy while trying them on. ―It‘s certainly an interesting area,‖ says Chris Creed at the University of Birmingham, UK. But he notes that using such technology in a shop would be harder than in the lab, because people will use a wide range of expressions. ―Attempting to make slight differences to these and ensuring that the reflected image looks believable would be much more challenging,‖ he says. Of course, there are also important moral questions surrounding such subtly manipulative technology. ―You could argue that if it makes people happy what harm is it doing?‖ says Creed. ―But I can imagine that many people may feel manipulated, unfortable and cheated if they found out.‖ 63． What‘s the main purpose of the Emotion Evoking System? A. To see whether one‘s feeling can be unconsciously affected. B. To see whether one‘s facial expressions can be altered. C. To see whether laughter es before happiness. D.
