Human activities increasingly emit greenhouse gases, which build up in the atmosphere
and warm the climate and lead to many changes around the world: in the atmosphere, on
land and in the oceans. Many of these changes have positively and negatively affect
people, society and the environment, including plants and animals. Major greenhouse
gases remain in the atmosphere for dozens (and even hundreds) of years, so their
warming effects on the climate last for a long time, affecting both present and future
generations. Climate change encompasses not only global warming, i.e. the rising
average temperature, but also extreme weather events, shifting wildlife populations and
habitats, rising seas and various other impacts. Warmer temperatures mean that there are
more and more insects that spread diseases and that heat waves are getting more lethal to
humans. Droughts and floods resulting from climate change also pose great threats to
agriculture. A recent study shows that for every rise of one degree Celsius crop yields will
go down 3 to 7 percent, severely affecting food insecurity.

MONA WHO
A young woman without eyebrows is seated in front of a beautiful landscape. Does this
sound
familiar to you? This is one of the most famous works by Leonardo da Vinci. The Mona
Lisa is
a beautiful painting. However, it was the mystery behind the painting that intrigued
people. Who was the woman and why did da Vinci paint her?
Different theories have been proposed about her identity. Many art and history buffs
thought
that it was a portrait of da Vinci himself, but as a woman. Others thought it was not any
particular person, but the ideal of a woman. They say this is why she was painted with no
eyebrows. This gave her face a more unearthly look. Still, others thought that it was a
portrait
of an actual woman of the time, the wife of Francesco del Giocondo.
In 2005, historian Armin Schlechter of Heidelberg discovered the answer. While looking
through an old manuscript, he found a small note. In this, the woman in the Mona Lisa
was
positively identified as Lisa del Giocondo. The artist had been paid to do her portrait after
the
birth of her second child. “Mona,” in fact, means “madam” in Italian. As for her
unearthly
look? Historians say women of this time liked to remove their eyebrows. Apparently, they
thought eyebrows were not attractive.

A. How da Vinci created a great painting
B. The making of a great mystery
C. Fashion trends long ago
D. The identity of a famous woman
29. According to the reading, what is one point about the Mona Lisa that intrigued
people?
A. What kind of woman da Vinci’s ideal was B. Where it was painted
C. Her hairstyle D. Her lack of eyebrows
30. What could the word “unearthly” mean in this reading?
A. Ideal B. Frightening C. Specific D. Realistic
31. According to the reading, which of the following was NOT an idea about the identity
of the
woman in the Mona Lisa?
A. Leonardo da Vinci painted himself.
B. She was married to Francesco del Giocondo.
C. Leonardo da Vinci painted a member of his own family.
D. She was not a real woman.
32. How do we know who the woman in the Mona Lisa is?
A. A historian looked closely at the portrait.
B. The name on the portrait tells us.
C. There were no eyebrows.
D. Someone wrote about it long ago.
