The Marx Brothers made many funny movies in the 1930s and 1940s. They made fourteen movies together. The movies made fun of officials in many areas of society, like colleges, hospitals or the government.
There were five Marx Brothers. The most famous were Julius, Leonard and Adolph. They were born in New York City between 1886 and 1890. Their father made clothing. Their mother wanted them to become performers. Julius, Leonard and Adolph started performing when they were children. Julius, Leonard and Adolph Marx began making funny movies in 1929. They changed their first names. Julius became Groucho. Leonard became Chico. Adolph became Harpo.
Groucho Marx looked funny. He had large black eyebrows and a hairy mustache. But they were painted on his face. He spoke very quickly. And he walked in a funny way. He played people with funny names, like Rufus T. Firefly. Otis B． Driftwood.
Chico Marx talked as if he was born in Italy. He spoke English that was not correct. Many other funny men spoke as though they came from other countries. They were making fun of themselves and other immigrants who did not speak English well. Chico also made funny jokes about words and expressions that sound alike but have different meanings.
Harpo Marx had curly yellow hair, but it was not really his hair. It was false hair, called a wig. He never said a word in any of the movies. Instead, he acted out what he wanted to say.

The light brown Argentine(阿根廷)ants are originally from South America, spreading around the world and living in huge super-colonies, according to the latest scientific findings. Over the years, the Argentine ant has moved to other parts of the globe, possibly by hiding in people's luggage and in cargo. This hasn't always been a good thing since the insects can destroy local plants and affect what animals in that area eat.
Ants are fierce fighters. They protect their territory from invaders, including other types of ants and insects. But Argentine ants, though they live on separate continents, were rather friendly and not hostile towards each other when they come together, scientists say.
There are three known super-colonies of Argentine ants. In Europe, one super-colony is located along the Mediterranean Sea. It is believed to be 3,700 miles long. Another super-colony is located in California. It covers about 560 miles. The third super-colony is on the west coast of Japan.
Scientists have discovered that the insects in the three super-colonies share similar chemical composition. This helps them recognize one another. To prove this, the scientists matched each super-colony with ants from a different colony in a similar part of the world. The Mediterranean ant colony couldn't get along with a smaller one from Spain. And the ants from the west coast of Japan couldn't get along with those from another area in Japan. But when the ants from the three super-colonies came together, they acted like old friends, greeting each other by rubbing antennas to say hello.
The scientists think that the Argentine ant super-colonies are one big family. Because they have similar chemical profiles, the scientists believe they are genetically related. The ants recognize each other by the chemical composition of their outer shells.
35．How does the Argetine ant spread other places?
A．They creep slowly all over the world by themselves.
B．They were brought to other part through people and goods moving.
C．They were sent different part by scientists.
D．They were brought into other part by some kind of insects.
36．Argentine ants can recognize one another in the three super-colony through their ________.
A．body shape B．chemical makeup
C．behaviour D．living places
37．Which of the following colonies is NOT the Argentine ants' colony?
A．Around the Mediterranean Sea.
B．California.
C．Spain.
D．The west coast of Japan.
38．Scientists do research on the Argentine ants to ________.
A．save these insects
B．help them reproduce more
C．prove them good or harmful
D．find their living environment

Instead of going to camp this summer, Zach, 11, decided to walk 668 miles from Atlanta, Georgia, to the nation's capital, Washington, D．C. Zach hopes to raise awareness about the difficulties of homeless kids. His journey to help others began two years ago. Zach walked from his home in Tampa, Florida, to Tallahassee. Then, in 2008, he did it again, this time walking from Tallahassee to Atlanta.
Since May, Zach has traveled 12 miles every day in his trusty Adidas shoes. Along the way, he has collected more than 1,000 letters about homeless children. He hopes to expose the letters to the public. Zach says he wants his walk to make a difference. “It was a long walk，” Zach says, “but it was definitely worth it.”
In 2005, Zach participated in an episode of the television show “Extreme Makeover Home Edition.” He says that helping to build homes made him realize there were people who didn't have anywhere to live. That's when he decided that he wanted to help homeless youth. He was also inspired by a movie he saw about Mildred Norman, an activist who promoted world peace by walking 25,000 miles. Zach thought that walking would be a good way to draw attention to his cause.
Zach is also the founder of the Little Red Wagon Foundation. The purpose of the non-profit is to help needy youth. Through his group, Zach has raised money and donated school supplies. “A lot of homeless youth don't get the opportunity to succeed in school because they don't have supplies，” he says.
Zach's volunteerism has even inspired a Hollywood movie based on his life. “He's the most extraordinary ordinary kid I've ever met，” says Michael Guillen of the Philanthropy Project, who is making the movie. “He hasn't just talked the talk. He has literally and figuratively walked the walk.”
39．Zach walks so long in order to ________.
A．visit the nation's capital Washington, D．C.
B．help the homeless children
C．know about the difficulties of walking travel
D．attract more people's attention
40．What does Zach mainly do along his way?
A．Travelling 12 miles every day.
B．Saving the homeless children.
C．Showing the letters to the public.
D．Gathering letters about homeless children
41．From Michael Guillen's words we can learn ________.
A．Zach is a person he'll do what he says
B．Zach is person who is always ready to help others
C．Zach has received much donation from the actor
D．Zach is an ordinary child everyone can copy
D
The Western has been the favorite type for American adventure story since the nineteenth century. While the American West was being settled, newspapers and “dime novels” could depend on stories of the frontier settlements and tell tales about living in the untamed wilderness to sell. The public back East was eager to read about the West, even if the stories were more fiction than fact.
In 1902, Owen Wister published his novel The Virginian, which was one of the first novels to treat the Western as a serious literary form; the novel still sold well and had inspired several movies and a television series. In 1905, Bertha H. Bower and Zane Grey published their first novels, and the popular Western novels had continued to flourish from that day on, with current novels by Luke Short, Max Brand, and Louis L' Amour carrying on the tradition
The first Western movie appeared even earlier than these serious Western novels. Before the turn of the century, an associate of Edison's had filmed Cripple Creek Barroom Scene, a few seconds of film showing the inside of a saloon, to help publicize the invention of the movie camera. In 1903 the Edison' company filmed the first “full-length” Western—The Great Train Robbery. The film lasts less than fifteen minutes, but a story is told its entirety. In the movie, bandits (强盗) rob a train and its passengers, killing the engineer, and find themselves tracked down by a posse. Audiences loved the movie. Some theaters were actually opened for the single purpose of showing The Great Train Robbery and only later realized that they could do equally well showing other movies. The film was so successful that other companies, and finally even the Edison company itself, began producing copies and other versions of The Great Train Robbery. Ironically, in an era when the West was still very real —Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma were all territories rather than states in 1903—The Great Train Robbery was filmed in New Jersey.
42．The purpose of this passage is to________.
A．discuss the making of the movie The Great Train Robbery
B．discuss the early Western novels
C．discuss the art of movie making
D．trace the development of the Western as an American adventure story tradition
43．Which writer played an important role in movies' development?
A．Owen Wister B．Bertha H. Bower
C．Zane Grey D．Luke Short
44．We can conclude from this passage that________.
A．people lost interest in the West after 1903
B．Owen Wister was an ex-cowboy
C．New Jersey was still “untamed wilderness” in 1903
D．films were fairly uncommon at the time The Great Train Robbery was made
45．The passage suggests that________.
A．Edison's invention of the movie camera happened by accident
B．movie houses didn't make much-money in the early days
C．Easterners were fascinated by the “ wild West”
D．The Great Train Robbery was poorly received by the public because it lacked a plot

Rome wasn't built in a day, and the Internet didn't come out of a golden egg.Many of today's creations were born of people who had creative ideas, but who did not stop at simply having an idea.They took one brick of capital (资本), another brick of knowledge, perhaps a brick or two of family and friends, and built their empires brick by brick.
If you want to build an online empire, you cannot settle for simply having a website full of articles, or a website full of pictures—there are already thousands of sites like that，so you need to come up with something new and creative.
So if you are starting to build something up, ask yourself: what do you really want to do, and what are you really good at? Believe it or not, you can make money at something that you are an expert in, and you need to know what that is.
Remember, having an online empire does not mean that you have to do it alone.You can take your_friends along with you.Having a friend advertise your services online is a good way to attract more visitors to your empire.
Building an online empire, you will have to be prepared to not only come up with creative ideas, but to carry your ideas through.Talk to people who have already succeeded in building their own empires.Talk to people who are struggling.Join a mailing list that will help you get through your struggle to achieve your goal.
As you move forward, you will find that you can help other people, and you will have a good many stories to tell—not to mention a lot of money in the bank.
If you learn the real secrets of creating a long?term stable online business then you will have enough money to retire on.

During basketball practice last year,12-year-old Nicole Dehart was shooting the ball when a defender tried aggressively to block her shot.The two players made contact，and Nicole hit the floor headfirst.At the hospital，doctors diagnosed a concussion (脑震荡) —an increasingly common injury in youth basketball，particularly among girls，yet one that has yet to gain widespread attention.
On Monday，the medical journal Pediatrics reported that about 375,000 children and teenagers are treated in hospital emergency rooms each year for basketball-related injuries.Obviously，the proportion(比例) related to head injuries is on the rise.About 109,000 children and teenagers were treated for basketball-related head injuries during the 11-year study period. Boys were most likely to experience cuts，fractures(骨折) ; girls were more likely to suffer head or knee injuries.
Basketball is the country's most popular youth sport，played by one million children—550,000 boys and 450,000 girls—each academic year.And the injury numbers，which were gathered by researchers at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus，Ohio，reflect only emergency room visits，leaving out the many thousands of injuries treated by clinics，trainers，family doctors.
“A lot of kids play basketball，both organized and unorganized，” said an author of the study，Lara McKenzie，chief investigator at the Columbus hospital's Center for Injury Research and Policy.“We probably need to do a better job of cultivating children to protect themselves.Preventing brain injuries is going to be pretty challenging.”
A separate report in Pediatrics found that basketball accounted for more than 9 percent of athletic concussions among 8-to 19-year-olds，placing it second among youth sports，behind only football (22 percent)，which is followed by hockey and baseball，just under 4 percent each.
Nicole，now 13，has fully recovered but that it took some time.“After the injury，she complained about headaches and feeling lightheaded whenever she was active.Even after the doctor had released her to go back to playing，the high school trainer and I worked together and watched her closely，” Ms.White said.“Kids play rougher and tougher than they ever have.”

57．Can you use another English word to explain the underlined word “cultivating”？(no more than 3 words)

4．B 考查情态动词用法。这里表否定推测，故用can。
5．D revive“复兴”；develop“发展”；revenge“报仇”；vanish“消失”；根据句意D项合适。
6．B 考查动词时态。从“How terrible！”知忘记带钱包了，故用过去时态。

8．C 句意：爱是唯一留下来的，因为它希望能坚持到最后一刻。hold down“控制，抵制”；hold up“举起(提出，抓举，支持住，阻挡)”；hold out“伸出；坚持”；hold to“固执(坚持)”。
9．B 句意：弄清体温与疾病之间的联系用了很长时间。此处应用不定式结构，且不定式具有被动意义。
10．D ever意为曾经或无论何时，反意词为never，此两词常用于完成时。it is / was the first time ＋that-clause 的句型中，从句要用现在/过去完成时。
11．D 搭配问题，用排除法和比较法。首先排除B项，然后比较A、C、D三项。A、C、D三项作名词用时皆可接to，但“voyage”意为“航海，航行”，“way”意为“方式，方法；道路”，“visit”意为“参观，访问，到(某地)”，比较A、C、D的意思，显然D项符合题意。仅考虑搭配结构，不注意所要表达的上下文意思而造成误选。
12．A 生活常识问题，用直接法。一般说来，(头年)秋冬积雪，来年春天融化，显然选A项。
13．C 词语辨析问题，用比较法。这四个动词有明确的方向性，bring意为“拿来，带来”；take意为“拿走，带走”；carry意为“携带，搬运”；fetch意为“去取回，去拿来”。比较四个词语语义知，应选C项。
14．B 从句与搭配问题，用直接法。显然此处是一个由关系副词where引导的定语从句，另一方面“there be”为固定搭配，故应选B项。
15．B 上下文语境问题，用直接法或排除法。短文第一句话提示：猎人发现一处有众多动物的森林，这对于以捕猎为生的猎人来说无疑是再理想不过了。A、C、D与题意不符，故排除。另一方面，favorite意为“最佳的、合适的、理想的”，与语境题意相符。
16．D 搭配问题，用排除法或比较法。首先排除A、C两项，“introduce sth. to sb.”意为“把某物介绍给某人”，或“让某人熟悉某物”，“show sth. to sb.”意为“给某人看某物”。此处由于飞行员不知道森林中的具体位置，因此猎人在地图上指明其位置，比较B、D两项，知D为正确选项。
17．C 连词问题，用排除法。通过两个人对话交际的语境可以判断该处缺少转折关系的连词，A、B两项为副词，应排除。however在行文中常常伴有逗号，这是however用法的重要标志；but用在句首时不用逗号作为标志。故应选C项。
18．A 上下文语境问题，用直接法。此处与上文“by carrying hunters over parts of the country”相对应，故选A项。
19．D 语境问题，用排除法。ordinary和excellent都是以元音音素发音开头，前面的冠词应为an，这与题目相违背，故应排除B、C两项。猎人要想让飞行员找到他理想的森林地带，他应该对飞行员讲一些恭维之类的言语，以博得飞行员的好感，故应排除A项，那么只有D为正确选项。
20．B 语境问题，用直接法。“That's right”，一方面是习惯表达法，A、C、D三项一般不这样表述；另一方面，通过上题的译文意思可知，飞行员对自己的驾驶技术和水平充满自信，故应选择B项。
21．A 词语用法问题，用直接法或排除法。A项的用法是tell sb./sth. 或tell sb.＋ clause；B项的用法是announce to sb. that clause；C项为persuade sb.(not) to do sth.；D项为prevent sb./sth. (from) doing sth.。A项此处可译为“我实话告诉你……”。
22．B 语境语气问题，用直接法。由猎人说话的语气可以判断，此处应该选择“did”，表示强调语气。
23．C 语境语气问题，用直接法。此处可以判断飞行员对猎人说话的真实性表示怀疑，故选C项。
24．D 词语辨析问题，用排除法。hit意为打击，碰撞，袭击；strike意为敲打，攻击，铸造；attack意为攻击，抨击，侵袭；beat意为敲打，打败，敲击。我们常用defeat sb.或 beat sb.表示打败，击败某人。显然，飞行员决不愿意让他人超过自己，故应排除A、B、C三项，D为正确答案。
25．C 词组辨析问题，用排除法或直接法。此处原文的意思是：当他们快要到达该处森林时，猎人用手指了指森林中一小块没有树的地方。carry out意为“执行，完成，实施”；take out意为“取出，拿出”；point out意为“指点，指明，指出”；work out意为“得出，计算出”。经过分析可知，C为正确选项。
26．B 语义问题，用直接法。根据语句的意思，不难得出B项为正确答案。
27．A 语境问题，用直接法。原文大意是：飞行员觉得着陆的空间不够，然而猎人则坚持说别的飞行员就是在这样的情况下着陆的，无奈飞行员只能将飞机下飞着陆。A项为正确答案。
28．B 语境问题，用排除法或比较法。显然C、D不符合实际应排除。stomach可译为“腹部”；back意为“背部”。另外onto one's back常连用，故应排除A项，B项为正确答案。
29．A 语境问题，用直接法。读到此处，读者应该领会到猎人目标或计划已经达到，当然是“高兴地笑了”，故选A项。
30．C 搭配问题，用直接法。manage it是指上次，那位飞行员刚好就是这么做的。另一方面，我们在交际中也常常有这样的一句话。No，thanks. I can manage it myself，意思是“不用谢，我自己能够应付”，故选C项。

With summer vacation drawing near, some parents are anxious to hunt for summer crammer schools for their children. To get more money, many summer crammer schools have come into being under the name of famous teachers. In this situation, quite a few parents enter their children for the schools. However, as a result, not only do their children fail to improve their study but also the parents are cheated of a lot of money. Meanwhile, their children waste the valuable summer vacation.
So I think parents should have the right and reasonable options for their children as to the training class. In some way leaving the children to nature is a better idea.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
There's a new kind of game on the Internet. When you play it, you do more than simply get points or have fun. As you play, you help computers develop new skills.
Computer scientist Luis von Ahn created the games as a way to solve problems that are difficult for computers, even though the problems may seem simple to us. Computers, for example, have a hard time identifying a cat in a photo, while we can spot a cat at a glance.
The idea is to invent online games that people enjoy playing. Then, as people play, they provide data that researchers can use to improve computers. The players don't know that they're helping out. They're just having fun.
“The potentials huge，” says computer scientist Manuel Blum, one of von Ahn's colleagues at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. “These games with a purpose make use of humans in a wonderful way.”
By harnessing the brainpower of thousands of people playing games on the Internet, computers may learn how to identify pictures, translate Web pages into forms that blind people can use, develop common sense, understand foreign languages, and more.
Our brains are made to collect and process lots of information about what we see, von Ahn says.
Computers, on the other hand, simply “see” a grid of dark and light dots, called pixels. It's not obvious to a machine that a certain blob is a cat. Likewise a computer doesn't know that a tiger, a cartoon feline, and a kitty curled up on a couch all belong in the same category: cat.
“If you give me an image of some common animal, I can tell you if it's a cat or a dog，” von Ahn says. “Computers can't do that yet.”
Because computers can't make such distinctions, search engines have a hard time finding images on the Internet, and getting people to label each image doesn't work well. There are billions of images, and the job is pretty boring.
1．The new kind of game on the Internet created by Luis von Ahn can mainly________.
A．help us have fun at any time
B．help the computer spot a cat
C．help the computer solve problems
D．help us relax by playing it
2．People like playing online games because________.
A．they enjoy having fun by playing them
B．they want to improve their playing skills
C．they want to make money by playing games
D．they want to solve the problems with computers
3．The main difference between our brains and computers is that________.
A．we can identify everything while computers can't do it at all
B．the computers do what people tell them to, which we can not do
C．our brains can collect information while computers can only identify dots
D．we can recognize a computer while a computer can not recognize us
4．Computer scientists control the brainpower of people playing games on the Internet to________.
A．get personal information to make lots of money
B．make computers faster and safer than before
C．ask them to translate Web pages into forms that blind people can use
D．get information to solve problems that are difficult for computers
5．We can learn from the passage that________.
A．people may refuse to play online games when they know what they are for
B．more and more online computer games may be created
C．people's brains will become better after they play computer games
D．scientists will solve the problems with the help of game players

Ⅰ.1.hesitated 2.direction 3.behave 4.doubts 5.exhaustion 6.invisible 7.vanished 8.profound 9.heroine 10.definitely
Ⅱ.1.A behave oneself守规矩，符合句意。believe oneself相信自己；help oneself自便；enjoy oneself玩得高兴。
2．D 考查定语从句。先行词direction在定语从句中作状语。come from the direction来自……方向。故选D。
3．B 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我们为你服务。如果你有什么问题，不要犹豫，尽管向我们求助。hesitate犹豫，不情愿，符合句意。
4．B 句意：如果厨师被发现在厨房抽烟，他将立即被解雇。find sb. doing sth.发现某人正在做某事。
5．C 考查独立主格结构用法。句意：如果天气允许，运动会将在后天举行。permit容许，有可能，为不及物动词，与名词weather有主谓关系，故由名词十动词的-ing形式的独立主格结构作状语。
6．D 句意：他是否会遵守诺言还不肯定。doubt在句中是名词，后接同位语从句，主句中是肯定则用whether引导(注意：if不能引导同位语从句)；若是否定则用that引导。
7．A 句意：他出国的梦想没有实现。“……的梦想”应该用the dream of sth. /doing sth。dream作动词时，“梦想做某事”也用dream of doing，而不能用dream to do。表示梦想的实现可用come true，come true是系表结构，不能用被动语态，也可用realize，realize是及物动词，可表示为：His dream of going abroad was never realized.
8．C 句意：迈克尔把姚明的画像挂在床边，目的是提醒自己记住自己的梦想。宾语himself与remind为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以选C项。

3．A 由下文“But there's no pig in this story.”可知答案。
4．C put...into意思是“把……放进去”；make...into意思是“把……制成……”；fit...into意思是“把……安装进去并适合”；throw...into意思是“把……扔进”。此处意思是指把小猪这个角色怎么样合理地融进剧情里面去，所以答案为C。
5．A exactly意思是“确切地，准确地”。此处意思是指别人不知道怎么演，而Norman自己心里很明白怎么去扮演这个角色。
6．C 根据下文可知，Norman所扮演的小猪时刻跟随着Cinderella，她走到哪里，它就跟到哪里，同悲同喜。所以答案为go with“伴随”。
7．D 根据下文可知，小猪只是用面部的表情来表现戏剧的情节，所以可以判断它不说话，故答案为D。
8．D 由下文可以断定此处应该和下面一句句式相同，所以选when。
9．D 由前面的一句可以得知小猪和Cinderella做一样的事情。所以此处的选词应该和worrisome的意义一致，所以答案为worried。

11．A 根据上文“Norman stood there and barked.”可选出答案。
12．A 此处应是消息传播开来，才有许多人打电话问这个老师，故选A。
13．B 原来的“Cinderella”中没有小猪这个角色，所以人们纷纷打电话询问到底有什么特别之处，而不是有什么重要、奇怪或者有用之处。

16．B 根据上下文的意思此处有转折关系。所以选but。
17．A reply“答复”；ask“要求”；explanation“解释”；reason“原因”。根据句意可知老师对人们的话作出回应，所以答案为A。

2．A 细节理解题。人们喜欢玩电脑游戏是一个事实，其实就是因为人们喜欢，可以从中得到乐趣，从文章的第二段可以得出，所以选A。
3．C 细节理解题。从文中可以得知，电脑和人脑的最大区别在于它只能识别网格和点，而我们则能收集信息、处理信息、识别图像，主要在文章的第六、七段。

A
“A serious attack on the fantasy story for children comes from those who do not wish children to be frightened，” writes C. S. Lewis in an essay named Three Ways of Writing for Children. Those who say that children must not be frightened mean two things. Firstly, they mean that we mustn't do anything likely to give children fears, and secondly, they want to keep out of their minds that they are born into a world of death, violence (暴力), wounds, good and evil (邪恶). C. S. Lewis says he agrees with the first reason, but not the second.
He goes on to comment, “Since it is so likely that they will meet cruel(残酷的)enemies, let them at least hear of brave fighters and heroic courage. By limiting your child to perfect and nice stories of child life in which nothing alarming ever happens, they would fail to face fears and hardships.” “It would be nice，” he continues, “if no little boy in bed ever hears a frightening sound. But if he is to be frightened, I think St. George, or any bright champion in armor, is a better comfort than the idea of the police.”
Bruno Bettelheim, a well-known child psychologist, also points out that fantasy stories provide children with a valuable education about good and evil. He believes that all children have many personal fantasies filled with fears and fantasy stories comfort them and offer solutions. Happy endings tell them that solutions and hope are real and model the kind of happy life children want to find.
A good fantasy suggests rather than teaches possible answers to life. It's believed that reading fantasies quickens the ability to get and put ideas from books to reality. It's what good literature does－it makes life larger.
1．According to the first paragraph, C．S. Lewis thinks that________.
A．children shouldn't read any fantasy story because it is bad
B. adults shouldn't do things that may frighten their children
C. death and badness should be kept out of children's minds
D. writing a fantasy story is the best way of writing for children
2．What probably is St. George according to the text?
A．He is a policeman in real life.
B．He is a murderer caught by the police.
C．He is a brave man in a fantasy novel.
D．He is a frightening person in a story.
3．Why should children read fantasy literature according to Bruno Bettelheim?
A．Because it encourages children to have a lot of fantasies.
B．Because it helps children overcome fears and find solutions.
C．Because it teaches children to write their own fantasy stories.
D．Because it gives children a happy memory when they grow up.
4．It can be inferred from the text that ________.
A．good literature can give readers more valuable stories
B．fantasies can improve one's ability to solve problems
C．personal fantasies can help children get away from danger
D．most children can understand what fantasy literature is
5．Which of the following features of fantasy literature does the author want to stress?
A．It's necessary and helpful.
B．It's interesting and attractive.
C．It's useless but enjoyable.
D．It's frightening but exciting.

Berlin－Germany's University of Heidelberg says a researcher has given evidence that apparently confirms(证实)the identity of the woman behind the Mona Lisa's famous smile.
She is Lisa del Giocondo, wife of Florentine businessman Francesco del Giocondo, according to notes written in the margins of a book by a friend of Leonardo da Vinci as the artist worked on the masterpiece, the school said in a statement.
The discovery by a Heidelberg University library manuscript(手稿)expert Armin Schlechter appears to confirm what has long been suspected. It is also an answer that has been in plain(清楚地)view for centuries: the Mona Lisa is known as Lisa del Giocondo in Italian.
Lisa del Giocondo was first named as the woman in the painting by Italian writer Giorgio Vasari in 1550, who also dated the work at between 1503 and 1506, the university said.
But because Vasari relied on anecdotal(轶事的)evidence, there was always doubts about the identification, and Leonardo is not known to have made any notes about the model's identity himself.
Mixing the mystery, unclear references in 1517, 1525 and 1540 point to other identifications.
“One possibility discussed is the presentation of an imaginative likeness of a woman, Leonardo's female ideal，” the school said.
But the find by Heidelberg library expert Armin Schlechter settles the matter, according to the university.
In a copy of the works of Roman philosopher Cicero, Agostino Vespucci, a Florentine official and friend of Leonardo's, wrote in the margins that da Vinci was working on a portrait of Lisa del Giocondo. He dated his notes October 1503，also helping fix the exact time Leonardo was working on the painting.
“All doubts as to the identity of the Mona Lisa are eliminated(清除)by one source，” the university said.
The discovery was actually made in 2005, but was not widely known until a German radio station last week aired it in a report.
6．Leonardo da Vinci was working on the masterpiece in________.
A．1503 B．1506
C．1525 D．1550
7．What can apparently confirm the identity of the Mona Lisa?
A．Armin Schlechter's manuscript.
B．Giorgio Vasari's anecdotal evidence.
C．Agostino Vespucci's notes.
D．The notes by Leonardo da Vinci.
8．Why was Giorgio Vasari's view doubted?
A．Because he didn't fix the exact time.
B．Because Leonardo made no note about the model.
C．Because his find was based on anecdotal evidence.
D．Because the answer has been in plain view for centuries.
9．The discovery was finally made public by________.
A．a German radio station
B．Germany's University of Heidelberg
C．the German government
D．Heidelberg library expert
10．What is mainly discussed in the text?
A．Leonardo da Vinci and his wife.
B．Scientific studies on the Mona Lisa.
C．Who is the woman in the Mona Lisa.
D．When Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa.
