I was born and raised in Hong Kong.For the past six years, I've been living in the United States.I work as a salesgirl in a large department store.Right now I'm going through a difficult period of my life which is hard for me to talk about.

A few months ago, I went to Hong Kong for a visit.It was the first time I'd gone back there since coming to the United States.I was eager to see my parents, my brothers, my sisters and my friends.

I really got a shock when I arrived.Hong Kong was not the same city as I left six years ago.Things had changed so much that I didn't recognize parts of it.My primary school was gone.The houses on the street where I used to live had been torn down and replaced by office buildings.

The shock from the physical changes in the city, however, was nothing compares to the confusion and hurt I soon began to feel in my parents' home.My family greeted warmly when I arrived.While my mother was busy preparing a special dinner in my honor, the rest of the family eagerly asked me questions about my life in the United States.I felt happy that day and for a couple of days after, but then I began to feel that something was wrong.I noticed that my family, especially my mother, would sometimes glance at me in a strange way when I was speaking.They gradually became less warm and friendly towards me, I became uncomfortable and confused as to why they were behaving that day.

I decided to talk to my mother.She asked me, "Have you forgotten your Chinese way?" I asked her what she meant.She asked, "You've forgotten the place of women in a Chinese home.You talk when you should remain silent.You speak on matters that of concern only to men.You speak openly of your inner feelings and desires.That's not the way of a Chinese woman.We keep our thoughts and feelings to ourselves.

Fading beauty

She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last for ever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.  

The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆) where it is housed.   

“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago,” the museum said. Visitors have noticed changes but repairing the world’s most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current chemical state (化学状态).  

Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when you’re not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It’s because direct vision (视觉) is excellent at picking up detail, but less suited to looking at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”

However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France’s King Francis I in 1519.  

In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later.  

During World War II, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.

C. Experts can’t agree on how the painting might respond to treatment.

D. No one knows exactly what materials were used to create the painting.

What makes her smile so mysterious according to Professor Livingston?
