12、ith years passingDwill rot away答案：B细节理解题。首先，由转折词But判断，本句的意思应和文章前面所说“美貌是永恒的”在意义上相反。后面又介绍说“蒙娜丽莎”的健康状况随着岁月的流逝而恶化，画的木板变形，因此断定此处的意思是指随着岁月的流逝，名画蒙娜丽莎受到了损坏。2The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen_.Aby indirect vision Bat a distanceCby direct vision Din shadows答案：A细节理解题。文章第四段提到，人们“正视”时，往往看不到“蒙娜丽莎”的微笑，原因

15、答案：D推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句可知，专家对于达芬奇所用的材料及材料现在的化学状态没有把握，也就是说担心盲目修补会更加损坏此画。A项讲此画状况极差，观点过激与本文不符；B项本文未提及；C项与第三段最后一句不符。BLife is not a beauty contest.We all focus on our imperfections(瑕疵)In fact，you should see yourself in a proper way.Its necessary for you to know that self knowledge(自知之明)is the most important

23、ons bigger.答案：D推理判断题。根据第二段“That bump on your friends nose. Its her feature！It gives her character！But to you，that thing on your nose is completely ugly.Our opinions of our own looks are also changeable.”可知，“你”可能认为朋友鼻子上的凸起是她的特色，赋予她个性。而如果在自己身上，就会看起来很丑陋。由此推断，有时我们把自身的瑕疵放大了。7“Hot or Not”_Ais a website wh

26、eless to pay attention to your appearance答案：C细节理解题。根据最后两句“Improve your impression from the inside. Understanding your own advantages can help you stop worrying about your appearance and look better.”可知，作者建议从内部提升“你”的形象。了解自身优势有助于“你”不再担忧自己的外表，从而(让自己)看起来更美。所以，“我们”可以从内心中把自己“武装得”更美。.短文填空根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能
