Everyone knows Da Vinci painted the world’s most famous painting, Mona Lisa. The smile of Mona Lisa is a secret for people. So if we find the skull (头骨) of the woman, we will know the answer. 21·cn·jy·com
Da Vinci started to paint it in 1503 or 1504 and finished it in 1519, shortly before his death, and after he had moved to France. The Mona Lisa is an oil painting owned by the French government now.
Mona Lisa was the wife of a rich businessman named Francesco del Giocondo. They married in 1495 when she was 16 and her husband was 35. Mona Lisa became a nun after her husband died. She died on July 15, 1542, aged 63. 2-1-c-n-j-y
Many people believed the businessman’s wife has been the life model for Da Vinci’s best painting.
Officials say they found the skull five feet under the floor. If scientists can show the skull belongs to Mona Lisa, artists will then try their best to reconstruct (重新修复) her face. That will find the secret of the smile 500 hundred years ago. 21*cnjy*com
Archaeologists (考古学家) dug the skull in the last two weeks, but we don’t know yet if the bones belong to one person or more than one.
“This is a very exciting thing. I am certain that this is the final place of Mona Lisa,” said Professor Vinceti.
( ) 1. What is the secret about the Mona Lisa all the time?【版权所有：21教育】
A. Mona Lisa’s address. B. Mona Lisa’s smile.
C. Da Vinci’s painting. D. The owner of Mona Lisa.
( ) 2. Whose skull (头骨) is likely to be discovered according to the passage?
A. Mona Lisa’s. B. Da Vinci’s.
C. An archaeologist’s. D. Vinceti’s.
( ) 3. Which of the following is NOT true about Mona Lisa?
A. She was the wife of a businessman.
B. Her husband was older than her.
C. She had no children.
D. She died after she was married for 47 years.
( ) 4. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The painting of Mona Lisa is dug now.
B. Da Vinci is the most famous painter in the world.
C. Archaeologists are digging the skull to show the secret of the Mona Lisa’s smile.
D. How to protect the painting of Mona Lisa.
