She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.
The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre museum(卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed.
“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,” the museum said. Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world’s most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state.
Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when you’re not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It’s because direct vision(视觉)is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”
However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France’s King Francis I in 1519.
In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later.
During World War II, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.
Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
1.The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa ________.
A.is losing its value
B.is being damaged after so many years
C.is getting more valuable with years passing
D.will rot away
2.Experts haven’t any repairs on the Mona Lisa because______.
A.it is now in a poor chemical state
B.they don’t know how to replace the wooden panel
C.they don’t have the materials Da Vinci used
D.they are afraid it will be done further damage.
3.The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen_______.
A.by indirect vision
B.at a distance
C.by direct vision
D.in shadows
4.From the last paragraph, we can infer that______.
A.many interesting stories have been written about the Mona Lisa
B.people are interested in the stories about the Mona Lisa.
C.some mysteries still remain to be solved about the Mona Lisa.
D.Many more stories will be told about the Mona Lisa.

Most of us would like to have glowing skin, especially as we get older. The good news is that you don’t have to wait until summer to catch some sun rays. Scientists have found eating plenty of fruit and vegetables is by far the best way to achieve a healthy, golden glow.
Dr. Ian Stephen said, “Most people think that the best way to improve their skin color is to get a suntan(棕褐色). But our research shows that eating lots of fruit and vegetables is actually more effective.”
The team first assessed the skin color of people in relation to their diet. Those who ate more fruit and vegetables a day were found to have a more golden, yellow skin color. Those with a healthy glow had a higher presence of carotenoids(类胡萝卜素), which play a role in the immune system. Carotenoids are commonly found in fruit and vegetables such an yellow and red peppers, spinach, apricots and melons.
The team then studied the relation between skin tone and attractiveness. They used specialist software to operate the skin color on the images of 51 faces to simulate(模拟)more or less carotenoids and suntans. Participants were then asked to adjust the skin color to make the faces look as healthy as possible. Given the choice between skin color enhanced by suntans and skin color enhanced by carotenoids, people preferred the carotenoids skin color.
The study shows that not only do people use skin color to judge how healthy other individuals are, but they are accurate when they make those judgments. While this study focus on Caucasian(白种人的)faces, it suggests this phenomenon may exist across cultures, since similar preferences for skin yellowness are found in an African population.
1.Which statement is TRUE according to the text?
A. Carotenoids are only found in the fruit.
B. Carotenoids are important in the immune system
C. Carotenoids can be improved by catching sun rays.
D. Carotenoids are the only factor that affects the skin color.
2.According to the text, people preferred _______.
A. the yellow skin color
B. the skin color as white as possible
C. the skin color enhanced by suntans
D. the skin color enhanced by carotenoids
3.What can we learn from the text?
A. Young girls should not eat many melons.
B. There’s no need to worry about our skin color.
C. We cannot judge a person from his appearance.
D. Skin color is a clue to judge whether a person is healthy or not.
4.What’s the author’s intention of writing this passage?
A. To show us how to get glowing skin.
B. To persuade us to get suntans every day.
C. To explain different diets in different cultures.
D. To share his experience of improving the skin.
