다음 글의 요지로 가장 적절한 것은?
Novelty-induced time expansion is a well-characterized phenomenon which can be investigated under laboratory conditions. Simply asking people to estimate the length of time they are exposed to a train of stimuli shows that novel stimuli simply seem to last longer than repetitive or unremarkable ones. In fact, just being the first stimulus in a moderately repetitive series appears to be sufficient to induce subjective time expansion. Of course, it is easy to think of reasons why our brain has evolved to work like this-presumably novel and exotic stimuli require more thought and consideration than familiar ones, so it makes sense for the brain to allocate them more subjective time.

Response to stimuli is an important by-product of brain training.

The intensity of stimuli increases with their repetition.

Our physical response to stimuli influences our thoughts.

New stimuli give rise to subjective time expansion.

글은 "novel stimuli simply seem to last longer than repetitive or unremarkable ones"(새로운 자극은 반복적이거나 평범한 자극보다 더 오래 지속되는 것처럼 보인다)라고 하고, 뇌가 새로운 자극에 더 많은 주관적 시간을 할당한다고 설명한다.

"The intensity of stimuli increases with their repetition."은 반복 자극이 오히려 짧게 느껴진다는 내용과 맞지 않는다.
"Our physical response to stimuli influences our thoughts."는 신체 반응이 아닌 시간 지각을 다룬 글의 요지가 아니다.
