Both a 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

I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not kn6w the real American
society until 1 was injured in a car accident because after the accident 1 had to see a doctor-and go to court (法庭).
After the accident, my roommate called to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible (负责的) for my injury, I'd have to have a good lawyer .And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.
But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines. And it cost me $215.
My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss (解雇)him. And he made me pay him $770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance company the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time ……
and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honour or professional morality (职业道德). Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America we should see both its good and bad sides.

A. he felt sorry for the author
B. he thought it was a chance to make some money
C. he knew the doctor was a very good one
D. he wanted the author to have a good lawyer

A. be properly treated
B. talk with the person responsible for the accident
C. recover before he leaves America
D. eventually (最后) get the responsible party to pay for his injury
70. Both the doctor and the lawyer in this passage are very .
A. friendly B. accuse C. ask as a price D. claim
71. What conclusion can you draw from the story?
A. Going to court is something very common in America.
B. One must be very careful while driving a car.
C. There are more bad sides in America than good sides.
D. Money is more important than other things in the US.
(E)
The faces of elderly, happily-married people sometimes look like each other Dr.Aikens studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty five years. Each couple provided four photographs-one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo to remove any clues (线索) . The photos were then displayed in groups: a random (随意的)grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some judges were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgements were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the judges were quite successful
at deciding who was married to whom. They were particularly successful with the most happily-married couples.
Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says human beings copy the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. Another possible reason, he says, is the common experience of the couples. There is tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple suffered a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.
72. The main purpose of the passage is to .
A. tell how couples like each other
B. show the life experience of husband and wife
C. explain why couples grow alike
D. describe the study on a number of married people
73. The judges failed to .
A. tell couples by looking at their photos taken when they got married
B. tell happily-married couples from sadly-married couples
C. discover the difference of each partner
D. understand Dr. Aiken's study
74. The sentence "their iudgements were no better than chance" means their judgements were. .
A. quite successful B. based on facts
C. correct only by luck D. were wrong
75. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that
A. happily-married couples are often richer than other couples
B. couples who look alike can live longer
C. the influence between couples can be quite strong
D. all couples have been proved to grow alike
