Leonardo da Vinci’s mother may have been a Chinese slave according to a new research by an Italian historian and novelist—Angelo Paratico, who has spent the last 20 years living and working in Hong Kong, researching the links between his homeland and China over the past half century.

Mr Paratico said the documents he has uncovered during two years of research form the basis of his latest book Leonardo Da Vinci, a Chinese scholar lost in Renaissance(文艺复兴)Italy. The book, which is due to be published next year, uncovers evidence that there’s a link between Da Vinci and the Far East.

Speaking to the South China Morning Post, Mr Paratico said, “I am sure that Leonardo’s mother was from the East, but to make her a Chinese, we need to use a deductive method(演绎法). One wealthy client of Leonardo’s father had a slave called Caterina. After Leonardo’s date of birth, she disappeared from the documents.She was no longer working there.’’

It is believed that his mother was called Caterina, who, according to some reports, was a local peasant. But Mr Paratico’s new work claims it is most likely that Da Vinci’s mother was a slave. Supporting his theory, he said, “During the Renaissance, countries like Italy and Spain were full of slaves from the East.”

He claimed that there were certain aspects of Da Vinci’s life and works which suggest a Chinese link. For instance, he was writing with his left hand from left to right and he was also a vegetarian, which was not common. Mona Lisa is probably a portrait of his mother,as Sigmund Freud said in 1910. On the back of Mona Lisa, there is a Chinese landscape and even her face looks Chinese.

Mr Paratico said he believes the only way to solve the mystery is to dig out some of Da Vinci’s relations in Florence and extract some DNA.

1.What is Mr Paratico’s latest book based on?

A. His research findings. B. His living experience.

C. His final visit to Italy. D. His interest in Renaissance.

2.What may suggest there is a link between Da Vinci and Chinese?

A. His working habit. B. His ways of writing.

C. His birth date. D. His father’s friend.

3.What can we learn about Da Vinci’s mother?

A. She was a slave of Leonardo’s father.

B. She quit working after her marriage.

C. She was buried in Florence after death.

D. She was probably the model of Mona Lisa.

The ability to deal with anxiety is an important part of sports training.People who are able to overcome their anxiety perform much better than some of the strongest competitors of the game.Unfortunately,at times sportspersons fail because they feel nervous when they are on the playing field,which makes them lose confidence in themselves.As a matter of fact,performance anxiety is quite common among stage artists and athletes,who are required to present themselves and their skills to a large crowd.

Various psychologists have found that expert athletes may behave like amateurs under great pressure.So what causes performance anxiety?First of all,during training and preparing for any competition,an athlete focuses on improving his or her skills in a familiar environment.All the efforts taken and practice done are,thus,stored in the procedural memory.However,in a real competitive situation,the conscious awareness of new grounds corrupts the memory of the practiced game,thus causing anxiety.It is also found that with more cheering crowds,the pressure for the athlete to achieve the best builds up rapidly.

Secondly,our body releases certain hormones(荷尔蒙) to welcome the upcoming exciting situation,which causes quickening of the heartbeat and sweaty hands.These signs are often misinterpreted(曲解) by an athlete as fear and lack of ability to perform.The negative thoughts often result in a terrible panic attack.

Thirdly,while training,some athletes set unrealistic targets for themselves.Failure to achieve those targets is regarded as lack of skills and puts the athletes in self?denial(自我否定) of their own improvement.Even if they are fully prepared for an event,they tend to think poorly of their capabilities.Such reaction can turn any professional player into a green hand,thus ruining their performance.

Fortunately,something can be done to solve the problem.One of the best ways to overcome such a situation is distraction(分心).As soon as you have the awareness of anxiety,pay your attention to something else—maybe singing or asking a fellow sportsperson about something that is not related to the game.Besides,you can take some small but effective measures.For instance,cut down on caffeine and sugar and have a carbohydrate?rich meal before the game to preserve energy.Anyway,performance anxiety is not a disease that athletes can get rid of once and for all.They should handle it properly to improve their performance so as to achieve sporting glory.
