The Mona Lisa painting now hangs in the Musee du Louvre in Paris. The painting’s increasing fame was further emphasized when it was stolen on 21 August 1911. The next day, Louis Beroud, a painter, walked into the Louvre and went to the Salon Carre where the Mona Lisa had been on display for five years. However, where the Mona Lisa should have stood, he found four iron pegs. Beroud contacted the section head of the guards, who thought the painting was being photographed for marketing purposes. A few hours later, Beroud checked back with the section head of the museum, and it was confirmed that the Mona Lisa was not with the photographers. The Louvre was closed for an entire week to aid in investigation of the theft.
French poet Guillaume Apollinaire, who had once called for the Louvre to be " burnt down," came under suspicion; he was arrested and put in jail. Apollinaire tried to implicate his friend Pablo Picasso, who was also brought in for questioning, but both were later exonerated. At the time, the painting was believed to be lost forever, and it was two years before the real thief was discovered. Louvre employee Vincenzo Peruggia had stolen it by entering the building during regular hours, hiding in a broom closet and walking out with it hidden under his coat after the museum had closed. Peruggia was an Italian patriot who believed Leonardo’s painting should be returned to Italy for display in an Italian museum. Peruggia may have also been motivated by a friend who sold copies of the painting, which would skyrocket in value after the theft of the original. After having kept the painting in his apartment for two years, Peruggia grew impatient and was finally caught when he attempted to sell it to the directors of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence; it was exhibited all over Italy and returned to the Louvre in 1913. Peruggia was hailed for his patriotism in Italy and only served six months in jail for the crime.
During World War II , the painting was again removed from the Louvre and taken safely, first to Chateau d’Amboise, then to the Loc - Dieu Abbey and Chateau de Chambord, then finally to the Ingres Museum in Montauban. In 1956, the lower part of the painting was severely damaged when a vandal doused the painting with acid. On 30 December of that same year, a young Bolivian named Ugo Ungaza Villegas damaged the painting by throwing a rock at it. This resulted in the loss of a speek of pigment near the left elbow, which was later painted over. The use of bulletproof glass has shielded the Mona Lisa from more recent attacks. In April 1794, a handicapped woman, upset by the museum’s policy for the disabled, sprayed red paint at the painting while it was on display at the Tokyo Natinal Museum. On 2 August 2009, a Russian woman, distraught over being denied French citizenship, threw a terra cotta mug or teacup, purchased at the museum, at the painting in the Louvre; the vessel shattered against the glass enclosure. In both cases, the painting was undamaged.
Which of the following is not implied in the passage ?
选项
A、The Louvre was closed for a whole week because of the theft.
B、The thief was put into prison for only six months.
C、The Mona Lisa painting was removed from place to place for display.
D、The Mona Lisa painting was attacked many times, so now it has been completely damaged.
答案
D
解析
这是一道判断是非题。注意题干中的NOT,此题可采用排除法。选项A,可从短文首段的最后一句中直接找到:“The Louvre was closed for an entire week to aid in investigation of the theft.”因此不选。选项B,在第二段的末句中也可直接找到:“Peruggia was hailed for his patriotism in Italy and only served six months in jail for the crime.”因此也不选。选项C,在第三段中也可以推断出来“这幅作品在世界许多地方进行展出。”而选项D,“这幅作品已经被完全损坏。”在短文中并没有提及到这点。
