But, at over 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 worseby the year, according to the Louvre Museum where it is housed.Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, and many are 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." 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 lovedit so much that he always carried it with him, until it was sold to France's King FrancisI in 1519.In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it outof the museum hidden under his coat.

It usedto be thought that this couldn't be helped, but new studies show that people of any age can train their brains to work faster. "Your brain is a learning machine," says Universityof California scientist Dr. Michael Merzenich. Given the right tools, we can train our brainsto act like they did when we were younger. All that's required is the practice designed just for the purpose: a few exercises for the mind.Merzenich has developed a computer-based training method to speed up the process in which the brain deals with information ( positscience. com). Since much of the data we receive comes through speech, the Brain Fitness Program works with language and hearing to better speed and accuracy (准确性).Over the course of training, the program starts asking you to tell sounds (between "dog" and "bog", for example) at an increasingly faster speed. It's a bit like tennis instructor, says Merzenich, hitting balls at you-faster and faster to keep you challenge.You may start out slow, but before long you're pre tty quick, The biggest finding in brain research in the last ten years is that the brain at any age is highly plastic. If you ask your brain to learn, it w ill learn. And it may even speed up while in the process. To keep your brain young and plastic you can do one of a million new activities that challenge and excite you: playing table tennis or bridge, doing crossword puzzles, learning a language. . . "When it comes to preventing ageing, you really do ' use it or lose it' ,"says Barbara Sahakian, professor at Cambridge University.34.

People should use the brain to stop it from ageing.C. The training o f the brain should start at an early age.D. It's necessary to take part in as many activities as possible.37. Which one is TRUE according to the passage?A. If you are 71 years old, your brain is too old to train.B. You can eat the food to keep your brain young and plastic.C. Merzenich has developed a computer-based training method to train brains.D. You will feel younger when you train your brain.第II卷（主观题共40分）四、词汇运用（本大题共8小题，每小题1分，共8分）(A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。
