Question

people look at artwork in two steps :they first give the piece a quick look to see whether it interests them at all.
人们一般分两部来观赏艺术品：首先是快速地浏览一下物品看它能否引起自己的兴趣!
“at 前面不是要有否定才连用的吗?

Answer 1

at all有“究竟”,“到底”的意思.即：首先是快速地浏览一下物品看它究竟能否引起自己的兴趣!
语法点是：
at all：(问句、条件句及肯定句内表示强调)究竟
He'll come before 12 if he comes at all.
如果他真的要来的话,肯定在十二点以前.
Is it at all possible that he alone can drink ten bottles of beer?
难道他真的能独个儿喝十瓶啤酒吗?
