    Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452 in Italy. He is best known as an artist today. One of his famous paintings is called Mona Lisa. However, Leonardo had many other natural abilities. He was also a great inventor. Many of his inventions have become important in modern day life. Although Leonardo hated war, he invented many different machines used for wars. His most special invention was the machine gun, which was produced and used in war many years later.

    By watching the way birds fly, Leonardo tried to find out the secret of flying. Among his sketches(素描) we can see several objects. We consider them as modern flying machines. Leonardo spent many hours thinking about how to make good use of time. He developed ideas for labor-saving machines like cutting machines.

    Leonardo was a strange man. He didn't eat any meat, which was unusual in those times. He never published his ideas and scientific discoveries. He usually used mirror writing, which looks like writing in a mirror, starting from the right side of the page and moving to the left.

    We have very little of his work today. Leonardo finished only a few of his paintings. He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect. No one in his life time knew how great Leonardo was. We now believe, however, that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known.

    1.According to the passage, Leonardo was not only an artist but also .

    A. a musician B. an inventor

    C. a writer D. an engineer

    2.What was Leonardo's most special invention.

    A. The mirror writing B. The cutting machine

    C. The machine gun D. The flying machine

    A. He usually wrote in a mirror. B. He didn't eat any meat.

    C. He liked to publish his discoveries. D. He enjoyed drawing flying machines.

    4.What is the purpose of the passage?

    A. To let us know more about Leonardo. B. To introduce Leonardo's great inventions

    C. To discuss Leonardo's famous paintings. D. To introduce a great artist to us.

    七、任务型阅读 阅读下面的短文，根据文中信息完成文后句子。每个空格只能填一个单词。

    Do you think about what job you will do in the future? Of course, we may think about it even when we are young. We sometimes hear little children ask their parents, “What will I be in the future? Can I be a pilot (飞行员) or a basketball player like Jordan?”

    When I am young, I dream of doing many exciting jobs. When I meet my best teacher, I hope to be a teacher having fun with so many students. After going to a concert (音乐会), I dream of being a singer some day to make people happy and love my songs. When watching the players playing so well in different games, I really hope I can become a cool player as they are.

    Everybody dreams of getting a good job and our dreams may be different when we meet different people and see different things. But one thing should always be the same ─ that is to work hard. The more knowledge (知识) we learn, the more chances (机会) we will have in the future.

    So try hard and learn as much as you can. Your future can be as bright as you hope.

    1.Children may think about the jobs they will do when they ________ up.

    2.The writer hopes to work in a ________ because he wants to have fun with children.
