These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the Italian violins. But many arent the same. Musicians still prefer the old ones. Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special. So age cannot be answered very quickly.Other people think the secret to those is the wood. The wood must be from certain kinds of trees. But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape. The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this was the secret of the Italians. Maybe they understand more than we do about how to cut the wood.Size and shape may not be the answer either. Scientists can make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish (清漆). Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny(光亮的). It also helps the sound of the instrument. No one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish. （ ）36The passage is about _ .Athe old Italian violins Bmusical instruments Cscientific ideas Dmaking violins（ ）37Other people think the Italian violin makers _ .Awere lucky Bdid not know much about the violin Cused many kinds of wood Dknew something special（ ）38Violins made today _. A. have the same size and shape as the old ones B. are better than the old onesC. sound the same as the old ones D. have the same varnish as the old ones（ ）39. Some scientists believe that the secret of the old violin was _.Atheir color Btheir sound Ctheir varnishDthe music（ ）40. Why was the violin painted with the varnish?ATo make the sound nice. BTo make the appearance shiny. CTo value the violin. DBoth A and BBOne day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by sending newspapers door to door, he was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.However, he lost his nerve(神经) when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “how much do I own you?”“You dont owe me anything,” she replied. “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.Year later the woman became badly ill and as finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.
