People have often worked together to collect and save the world’s art treasures.Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louver (罗浮宫) in Paris, France. The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries. The Louver has not always been a museum. The first building was a fort (要塞) with high walls and a round tower. It had a moat (护城河) to keep out the enemies.Over the years, the number of buildings around the fort grew. By 1350, the fort was no longer needed and became a palace for French kings and queens.During times of peace, new treasures were brought in. During times of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings were damaged.When Francis I became King of France in 1515, he brought in artists from many countries. One of them was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy, whose ＭｏｎａＬｉｓａis one of the best-known paintings in the museum today.In 1793, the Louver became a public museum just as it is now. It is a place where art treasures have been saved for everyone to enjoy.41. The passage is about .A. the world-famous painting ＭｏｎａＬｉｓａB. a king of France by the name of Francis IC. a grand art museum in the capital of FranceD. an artist named Leonardo da Vinci42. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. People have often worked together to collect t he world’s art treasures.B. At the beginning, the Louver was made up of a group of buildings.C. Many new treasures were brought in during times of peace.D. The Louver became a public museum in the nineties of the eighteenth century.43. It seems to be necessary for great art works to be kept in public museumsbecause .A. only in this way will they not be stolenB. it gives everyone a chance to enjoy themC. it helps people to remember the life of French kings and queensD. it tells people what meaningful work the French kings did in the past44 Though the story does not say so, it makes you think that .A. lots of people pay visits to the LouverB. Leonardo da Vinci was once the keeper of the museumC. the Louver was only open to the artists from other countriesD. the Louver became a public museum not long agoBI sent my first e-mail message when I was 17. I discovered Google 5 years later. From then on, I have used the Internet all the time.But when I was a kid, I never imagined that I would one day send messages using a computer that fitted in my backpack. Your experience is probably very different.Nearly 90 percent of 12-to-17-year-olds in the United States use the Internet, according to one recent survey, and about half of these kids use it every day. They visit chatting rooms and send e-mails. They post profiles on My Space and go to websites to get information for homework. “Kids are now living in a virtual world,” says psychologist Patricia Greenfield. She’s the director of the Children’s Digital Media Center at the University of California, Los Angeles. As digital technology dominates the lives of young people more and more, scientists have begun to wonder: Is the Internet good or bad for kids?“It’s impossible to answer that question because the Internet has so many things,” says Justine Cassell, a media expert at Northwestern University. “It’s networked computer games and news about politics and instant messaging and e-mails to your grandmother.”To add to the uncertainty, more and more studies show that the online world can be helpful in some ways and dangerous in others. It can be both an educational resource, for example, and a hiding place for kidnappers.“The bottom line is that the Internet is a v ery powerful tool that can be used equally for the good or the bad,” says Greenfield.45. From the passage, we know that the author discovered Google when he was _____years old.A. 17B. 5C. 22D. 1246.
