1 London taxi drivers know the capital like the hack of their hands. The reason London taxi drivers are so efficient is that they have all gone through a very long training period known as "the knowledge" to get the special needs to drive taxis.
2
3 Once a new taxi driver has a license, the next thing he or she has to deal with is the public. Drivers agree that most passengers are very pleasant, although occasionally they can be nasty.
4 But sometimes it is not only the tip that is at stake; a taxi driver's job can also be dangerous.
5 To avoid situations like this, more and more drivers are joining radio taxi companies. Not all unexpected encounters are nasty ones, though. Celebrities and politicians often take taxis and this can add a bit of excitement to the lives of the drivers.
London taxi drivers love to talk to people and most of them start a conversation as soon as the passenger steps into their vehicle. Colin Sinclair is unrepentant, "Why not? I enjoy talking to people and I learn from them. I've learned more from driving a taxi than I ever did at school. I' ve had people in my taxi from Russia and Australia and they' ve taught me a lot. It's fascinating."
A. When your money and life is in danger, it' s best to call for help by means of a system equipped in the car, which may be of great help in time of emergency.
B. Colin Sinclair was once attacked by a passenger who did not want to pay the fare," He grabbed my hand and said, 'I'm going to beat you up,' and then he started pushing me towards the window. luckily, I managed to reach the emergency radio, and within
five minutes 20 drivers had come to my aid."
C. During this period, which can take from two to four years, the would-be taxi driver has to learn, the most direct route to every single road and to every important building in London.
D. Learner drivers are not allowed to work and earn money as drivers. Therefore, many of them keep their previous jobs until they obtain their taxi-driving license. The training period can cost quite a lot, because learners have to pay for their own expenses (getting around London using private transport), the test they take and a medical exam.
E. Brian Turner once carried two princesses in his taxi without even realizing! He recalled, "They stopped me in front of the gates of Kensington Palace and kept me talking for; 20 minutes while a policeman watched. I know I had seen them in photographs but I couldn' t remember who they were. It was only after they left that I realized who they were!"
F. But as Brain Turner, 53, a taxi driver for 30 years, explains, "Your job is to take them where they want to go in a polite and pleasant manner, whatever they are like. After all, if you' re unpleasant to your passenger, you won't get a tip."

She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever. But, at nearly 500 years of age, time is catching up with the Mona Lisa.
71
“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. 72
73 “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. 74
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.
75
A. Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, many attracted by the mystery of her smile.
B. This picture is now so valuable that no one can tell its exact price. Therefore, many thieves tried to steal it in any way they could think of.
C. Visitors have noticed the 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.
D. 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.
E. 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.
F. During World War II, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces. Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
