    She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last for ever. 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 Louver Museum(卢浮宫) 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 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.

    We can infer from the text that        .

    A. the Mona Lisa is proved to be able to last another 500 years.

    B. Mona Lisa’s beauty is fading gradually with 500 years passing by

    C. the Mona Lisa has been catching people’s wide attention in the past 500 years

    D. Mona Lisa does not look out of date though painted 500 years ago

    Which of the following is true about the Mona Lisa?

    A. It was once taken away and hidden up by German forces.

    B. Its painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade.

    C. Mona Lisa stops smiling when you look at her wanting to see her smiles

    D. King Francis I bought it and then returned it to Italy.

    Choose the right order about the happenings onto Mona Lisa.

    a. It was stolen from the Louvre.

    b. Its painter sold it to King Francis I.

    c. Its state of health was checked.

    d. It was returned to France and housed in the Louver Museum.

    e. It was hidden and protected against Germans.

    A. b-a-d-e-c            B. d-e-c-b-a          C. d-a-e-c-b          D. b-c-a-d-e

    It may add to the difficulty in repairing the painting that          .

    A. experts haven’t noticed changes in its shape as visitors do

    B. it is likely to be stolen again when it’s under repair

    C. it is uncertain which country, Italy or France, should take charge

    D. experts aren’t sure about the materials and the chemical state of its oil paint

    Make Up Your Mind to Succeed

    Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure．The generation (age) born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores (marks) and performance (show) were played down because “everyone's winner.” And their report cards sounded more positive than ever before．As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”

    Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years．Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it．Here's how they work:

    　　A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent is genetic – you're a born artist, point guard, or numbers person．The fixed mind-set believes it's sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame．When things get difficult, it's quick to blame (liability), lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.

    　 On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible．Because the ego (自尊) isn't on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame．When faced with a difficulty, it's quick to rethink, change and try again．In fact, it enjoys this experience.

    　　We are all born with growth mind-sets．(Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise．Dweck's book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth．But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.

    1.What does the author think about the present generation?

    A．They don't do well at school.

    B．They are often misunderstood.

    C．They are eager to win in sports

    D．They are given too much praise.

    2.A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .

    A．doesn't want to work hard

    B．cares a lot about personal safety

    C．cannot share his ideas with others

    D．can succeed with the help of teachers

    3.What does the growth mind-set believe?

    A．Admitting failure is shameful.

    B．Talent comes with one's birth.

    C. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.

    D．Scores should be highly valued.??

    The popular song ‘Gangnam Style’ from South Korean recording artist PSY has just become the most watched video on YouTube ever, getting more than 808 million views on the popular media site.

    The distinction was previously held by another pop heavyweight, Justin Bieber, whose song ‘Baby’ had a little more than 804 million views at press time. PSY made the announcement on his Twitter page earlier today.

    Since its release, the song has defeated such other popular videos as Jennifer Lopez’s ‘On the Floor’ and Eminem's ‘Love the Way You Lie’. And in September, 'Gangnam Style' also became the most liked video on YouTube, now with nearly 5.4 million thumbs up.

    At the time of the announcement, the Guinness Book of World Records released a statement saying: “In years past it was unthinkable that something would be viewed a hundred million times, and now Gangnam Style has achieved more than twice this figure in just three months on YouTube. PSY, your certificate is waiting here at our office, come pick it up any time!”

    Despite its massive popularity, the video shows no signs of slowing down, and it even has a shot at becoming the first video to get more than one billion views.

    If it maintains its current rate of around six million new views per day, ‘Gangnam Style’ would be in line to break that record by the end of the year.

    The YouTube honors are just the latest in a long list that shows just how popular the song has become. Since it was released in July, the song has seen a meteoric rise through the music industry.

    It has found its way to the tops of music charts in more than 30 countries, including the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain and Canada, while providing material for thousands of parody（恶搞）videos.

    It became part of the 2012 presidential elections with the now famous ‘Mitt Romney Style’ video and was even used by the North Korean government in propaganda films promoting their supreme leader.

    Meanwhile, such influential figures as President Obama, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt have all made mention of the hit song.

    1.This passage mainly talks about a world famous________.

    A. music chart                         B. video website

    C. music video                         C. Korean pop singer

    2.Which of the following about “Gangnam Style” is NOT true according to the passage?

    A．“Gangnam Style” has defeated Justin Bieber’s “Baby” on You Tube’s views.

    B．“Gangnam Style” has been the favorite to at least 5.4 million people.

    C．“Gangnam Style” has been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records.

    D．“Gangnam Style” has been the first to get more than 1 billion views.

    3.What can we infer from this passage?

    A．The influence of “Gangnam Style” has spread far and wide

    B．Obama won the presidential election partly because of the ‘Mitt Romney Style’ video.

    C．Despite its massive popularity, the fever of “Gangnam Style” has decreased.

    D．PSY will become one of the greatest musicians due to the popularity of “Gangnam Style”.

    The time of year a baby is born can shape what profession they will embark on (从事) in later life, a new study has suggested. Being born in a certain month appears to indicate the statistical likelihood of what job a person will end up with, the study by the Office for National Statistics found. Researchers have uncovered that the month in which babies are born could also affect everything from intelligence to length of life.

    A child born December is more likely to become a dentist while someone whose birthday falls in January will tend to a debt collector, they found. A February birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while March babies appear to go on to become pilots. Meanwhile, April and May are said to have a fairly even spread of professions, births in the summer months mean a much lower chance of becoming a high-earning football player, doctor or dentist.

    The study was derived (推导出) by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last census, the Daily Mail reported. Although these trends may be difficult to explain, correlations (关联) between birth months and specific health problems have a scientific basis. Spring babies are at greater risks of illnesses including schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, asthma and autism. They may also be less clever than classmates born in other parts of the year.

    1.What is the main idea of this passage?

    A．The year when a baby is born may not be associated with the job he or she will end up with.

    B．Researchers have found the birth month could affect both intelligence and length of life.

    C．The birth time can give signs of future development of what professions people will start.

    D．The study indicates there are correlations between birth months and some terrible risks.

    2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

    A．A child born in December is more likely to become an artist while someone born in January will tend to be a dentist.

    B．A February birth appears to have the possibilities of being an artist while March babies appear to become pilots.

    C．Children born in April and May are said to have equally balanced chances in their future professions.

    D．Births in the summer months mean they have few chances to earn a lot of money as a football player, doctor or dentist.

    3.What do the researchers also study besides the analyses of the trends between birth months and professions?

    A．Some serious diseases from births of many children.

    B．A lot of mental illnesses caused by giving birth to children.

    C．The secret of births and healthy problems.

    D．The relationship between birth months and certain health problems.
