Scientists using X­rays to examine the chemical structure of a small part of the painting discovered a technique Leonardo used in the work.An oil paint used for it was a special, new chemical mixture, which suggests that the Italian artist was in an experimental mood when he worked on the painting in the 16th century. “He loved to experiment, and each of his paintings is completely different technically，”said Victor Gonzalez, a chemist who has studied the chemical element of several works by Leonardo and other artists.The researchers found a rare lead compound—plumbonacrite, in Leonardo's first layer of paint.The discovery proved that da Vinci most likely used lead oxide to thicken and help dry his paint.The paint in the study is about the thickness of a human hair, lying in the top right area of the painting. The scientists looked into its atomic structure using X­rays, moving particles at the speed of light, permitting researchers to look deeper into the paint structure.“ Plumbonacrite is really a fingerprint of his recipe, as it's the first time we can chemically confirm it，” Gonzalez said. Dutch artist Rembrandt may have used a similar mixture when he was painting in the 17th century.Gonzalez and other researchers have found plumbonacrite in his work, too.Leonardo is thought to have put lead oxide powder, which has an orange color, in the oil to make it thicker and dry faster.“What you will get is an oil that has a very nice golden color，” Gonzalez said.“It flows more like honey.” But the Mona Lisa—said by the Louvre to be a portrait of Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a Florentine silk businessman—and additional works by Leonardo still have other secrets to tell.“What we are saying is just a little brick in the knowledge，” Gonzalez said. 4.What's the new discovery about the Mona Lisa? A.A new explanation of the secret smile. B.A new chemical element used in the painting. C.The secret of the woman in the painting. D.The structure of the paint da Vinci used. 5.Which best explains the underlined word “fingerprint” in paragraph 4? A.Open secret. B.Widespread use. C.Hidden element. D.Long­term dream. 6.How does Gonzalez view the use of lead oxide powder in paintings? A.It helps to make many things into paints. B.It helps to make paints easy to deal with. C.It helps to keep the paintings last long. D.It helps to make paintings rich in color. 7.What can we learn about the Mona Lisa from the last paragraph? A.It has more secrets to tell the world. B.It's the portrait of a silk businessman. C.It's well kept in bricks in the Louvre. D.It has a mixture of different art styles.

The purest type of fresco painting, also known as “buon fresco”， involves mixing pigments directly with wet plaster.The color is thus actually part of the material, rather than a coating on top of it, as is the case with “fresco a secco” or with regular painting.The colors of a buon fresco are especially vibrant and long­lasting; the Bull­Leaping Fresco in Knossos, Crete was created around the 17th－15th centuries BCE, but the colors are still clear today.However, this technique is not without its unique disadvantages.For one thing, colors look different when they are wet than when they are dry.Artists of the time typically mixed their own plaster and color mixtures, working quickly to finish a part of a mural (壁画) before the plaster dried.The mixture they created the next time might have been a slightly different shade.If you look carefully at the frescoes on the Sistine Chapel, you can see which parts must have been completed in a single session by the faint differences in colors. Fresco a secco requires something to be added to the paint to make it stick to the dry plaster.This technique is sometimes used to repair a buon fresco that has been damaged, although the colors are generally not as bright.However, some colors actually worked better with the fresco a secco.During the Renaissance period, the available pigments for creating blue did not mix well with wet plaster; for this reason, skies, water, and blue clothing sometimes were painted as secco frescoes after the buon fresco had dried. In 1997, the frescoes by Giotto di Bondone in the Basilica of St.Francis in Assisi, Italy were damaged in an earthquake.150 restorers, of whom most are volunteers, spent five years gathering 60，000 pieces that they could find and set them back into place, much like a puzzle, although about 35 percent of the fresco remains incomplete. 8.Which of the following can replace the word “vibrant” underlined in paragraph 2? A.Bright. B.Simple. C.Watery. D.Rare. 9.What does the author want to show by mentioning the frescoes on the Sistine Chapel? A.It was in Italy that true fresco was widely used. B.It is crucial to differentiate varied painting style. C.It took time for painters to create their unique colors. D.It was hard to create the exactly same color every time. 10.What is the third paragraph mainly about? A.The disadvantages of fresco a secco. B.The reasons why painters preferred blue. C.The characters and uses of fresco a secco. D.The similarities between the two fresco techniques. 11.Which can best describe the repair process of Giotto's frescoes? A.Slow but creative. B.Complicated and dangerous. C.Discouraging but money­saving. D.Time­consuming and laborious. [二次精读] 重点单词 plaster/'plɑːstə(r)/n.　　灰泥 pigment/'pɪɡmənt/n. 颜料 session/'seʃ(ə)n/n.
