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 changes but repairing the worlds most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state(化学状态). 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 youre 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. “Its 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 Frances 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 panned 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.64. What does the writer mean by “time is catching up with the Mona Lisa? A. The painting woman is not so beautiful any more.

Experts cant agree on how to carry out repairs.66. What makes her so mysterious according to Professor Livingston?The materials the Italian artist used. The way she smiles.The way Da Vinci painted the smile.It plays a trick upon the human eyes.CSometimes children do not do what their parents tell them to do. When this happens, a parent tries to help the child to do the right thing. When this does not work, the parent usually punishes the child.There are many things that a parent can do. One thing that people have done is to spank (打屁股) the child. When a parent spanks a child, they will use their hand or a hard object to strike them on their bottom. This is meant to show the child that they have done something wrong.One parent remembers being spanked when he was a child. His parents used a wooden spoon. When he spanked his own children with his hand, he saw that he put a red mark on his childs leg. He never did that again.One problem with spanking is that it teaches the child to hit someone when they do not like what the other person is doing. Another problem with spanking is that the parent is usually angry and can hit the child too hard. Sometimes parents will use spanking for everything and not try other ways to get the child to do the right thing.Many parents are not sure what to do instead of spanking. Some people think that their religion宗教tells them that spanking is okay. Some think that the law lets them do it. The courts say that parents have the right to teach their children how to behave.Other things should be tried before a parent decides to spank a child. Telling the child exactly what is wanted from them can be one thing. Giving a child more than one choice is another thing that can be tried. Getting down to the childs level and taking a more child-friendly approach can help as well.67. According to the passage, when children do something wrong, one thing that parents usually do to punish them is to _. A. strike them on the bottom B. try to help them do the right thingC. teach them what to do D. take them to court68. Which of the following is NOT the problem caused by spanking?It teaches the child to hit others when they offend him or her.The parent may get angry and hit the child too hard.Sometimes parents may use spanking for everything.It makes parents try other ways to make the child do right.69. Which of the following can best describe the writers attitude towards spanking?A. favorable (赞同的) B. indifferent (不关心) C. interested D. unfavorable70. From this passage, we can conclude that _. A. Good children always do the right thing.Parents should try their best to avoid spanking their children.Parents have no choice but to spank their children when they do something wrong.Children can have more than one choice to avoid being spanked.DIt seems that great artists and scientists often suffer from mental (精神的) problems. Both Einstein and Dickens had mental illness. Now scientists have started to look at whether mental illness and genius are linked. Dr Adele Juda studied 5,000 creative people in Germany. She found there were more people with mental illness in this group than in the general population. Poets had the highest rate (比例) of mental illness, followed by musicians, with lower numbers for painters and architects. Other scientists did research which also showed a strong link between mental problems and creativity. But, it did nothing to explain it. Dr Ruth Richards of Harvard University made a breakthrough. Instead of studying creative people, she took a group of psychiatric (精神病的) patients and tested them for creativity. The patients got much higher scores than a normal group. Also, the patients' close relatives were much more creative than the patients and a normal group. This suggests that the key to the link between creativity and mental illness is in our genes. But this is a problem. According to Darwinism, harmful genes should be removed. Some scientists believe that evolution (进化) has created a balance, where the madness of a few people leads to the development of the wh
