　　Both camera and a computer could “see” something that perhaps millions of pairs of eyes failed to see for 480 years，the Mona Lisa's lost necklace. The discovery about the famous painting was made by an American physicist in 1986.

　　The Mona Lisa, painted by the Italian Leonardo da Vinci, has been on show for years in Paris Now, something unusual on the neck has been“seen”The necklace which the artist later painted over will be examined further by using laser (激光) to show what lies right under the surface of the finished work. This will help us understand how the artist drew the picture. Did he begin with a quick-made drawing or have second thoughts as he painted the picture?

　　This kind of knowledge will show us the famous artist at work. It may also help explain Mona Lisa's smile, which has puzzled art lovers for centuries.

(1)The American physicist knew more about ________.

[　　]

A．Laser and computer
B．painting
C．Leonardo da Vinci
D．Mona Lisa

(2)According to this passage, we may know that the painting Mona Lisa was finished in ________.

[　　]

A．1486
B．1496
C．1506
D．1516

(3)We can guess that Leonardo da Vinci was born in ________ century.

[　　]

A．the 16th
B．the 15th
C．the sixtieth
D．the fiftieth

(4)According to this passage, which is wrong?

[　　]

A．The great work Mona Lisa was a puzzling one.

B．We can see Mona Lisa's necklace now.

C．Leonardo da Vinci was born in Italy.

D．The great artist might have had second thoughts as he painted the picture.

答案：A;C;B;B
解析：

(1)  A 第一段指出美國(guó)科學(xué)家使用計(jì)算機(jī)和攝影機(jī)，第二段指出他們使用激光，所以應(yīng)是A項(xiàng).B項(xiàng)“油畫”、C項(xiàng)“達(dá)芬奇”、D項(xiàng)“蒙娜麗莎”都與文意不符.

(2)  C 文中說(shuō)這一重大發(fā)現(xiàn)發(fā)生在1986年，而此前這幅畫已存在480年，所以1986年-480年=1506年，所以這幅畫完成于1506年.

(3)  B 達(dá)芬奇作畫時(shí)是1506年，所以他至少應(yīng)出生在上個(gè)世紀(jì)，即15世紀(jì)，選B項(xiàng).

(4)  B 由文章第一段可知，畫完成后的480年里人們都沒(méi)有發(fā)現(xiàn)蒙娜麗莎的項(xiàng)鏈，所以B項(xiàng)不正確.A項(xiàng)“蒙娜麗莎這幅畫讓人感到迷惑”、C項(xiàng)“達(dá)芬奇”出生在意大利、D項(xiàng)“偉大的藝術(shù)家在作畫時(shí)是經(jīng)過(guò)再三考慮的”都與原文內(nèi)容相符.

　　She prepared her work very care-fully and demanded us to do the same．We got lots of homework from her．Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the home-work load would be reduced, but it con tinued just the same．She checked our work by stamping her name at the bot tom of the papers to show that she had read them．

閱讀理解

　　It may not have a funny bone．But that hasn't stopped one robot from developing a sense of humor．Scientists have created the first software program that can tell the difference between ordinary conversation and surprising puns(雙關(guān)語(yǔ))．

　　Previous attempts to get machines to understand jokes have largely failed because humor is so subjective and complex, making it difficult to program．But psychologists have argued that intelligent computers and robots acting as human helpers will need to understand complex puns in order to communicate and appear friendlier．

　　The“joke bot”, as it has been named, recognizes simple jokes by working out how the words in a sentence are related to one another．If it decides a word does not fit in with its surroundings, the computer searches a pronunciation guide for the same or similar sounding terms．If any of those fit, it decides the passage is a joke．

　　In one test, it was shown the following passage：“Mother：‘Mike, you've been working in the garden a lot this summer．’Son：‘I have to because my teacher told me to weed a lot．’”The software realizes that“weed”makes sense in the context of“working in the garden”but has no place in the same sentence as the words“teacher told me”．Since“weed”sounds similar to“read”, it can find this wordplay．

　　Julia Taylor, researcher of the University of Cincinnati, Ohio, who designed the program with her colleague Lawrence Mazlack, told New Scientist that the team were now trying to make the machine understand more complex versions of humour, including sarcasm(諷刺)and irony．

　　“If you've been in a car accident, you probably won't find a joke about a car accident funny,”she added．

(1)

What is the difficulty in making machines understand jokes?

[　　]

A．

Machines don't have a funny bone．

B．

Jokes are too difficult to understand for people．

C．

Humor is the kind of mental product．

D．

Human technology is not advanced at all．

(2)

What can the“joke bot”do?

[　　]

A．

It can find a joke in a car accident．

B．

It can judge whether a passage is a joke．

C．

It can tell a joke to humans．

D．

It can design a difficult joke program．

(3)

Why did the software decide the dialogue between mother and son as a joke?

[　　]

A．

Because there are the same sounding terms“a lot”．

B．

Because it found the words were related to each other．

C．

Because it recognized a word didn't fit in with its surroundings．

D．

Because it was a dialogue between mother and son．

(4)

The subject discussed in the passage is ________．

[　　]

A．

the robot that appears friendly to humans

B．

the robot that helps human communicate

C．

the robot that is intelligent

D．

the robot that can understand pun
