Most musicians agree that the best violins were first made in Cremona, Italy, about 200 years ago. There violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments(乐器)like the Italian violins. But they aren't 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 the answer. Other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. The wood must be from certain kind 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 understood 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 stone 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. It also helps the sound of the instrument. But no one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.

Carrots are grown on farm and in small family gardens throughout the world. They are easy to grow and easy to harvest. They have a pleasing taste.

When people think about carrots, a picture of a long, thin, orange- colored vegetable usually comes to mind. But carrots come in many different sizes and shapes, and not all carrots are orange.

Carrots should be grown in sandy soil that does not hold water for a long time. The soil also should have no rocks. Weather, soil, and age affect the way carrots taste. Experts say warm days, cool nights, and the right soil temperature are the best conditions for growing great carrots. Most people do not know that carrots can be grown during the winter months. If the weather is not cold enough to freeze the ground, you can grow and harvest carrots the same way as you do during the summer months. If the ground does freeze in your part of the world, just cover your carrot garden with some plant leaves or straw. This will prevent the ground from freezing.

Carrots need time to produce and develop their sugar. This gives them their taste. If they are harvested too early, they will not have enough sugar. However, carrots become wood - like and lose their sweetness if you wait too long to harvest them from the ground. The best way to decide if a carrot is ready to be harvested is by its color. Usually, the brighter the color, the better the taster.

1. Why are carrots widely grown throughout the world?

A. Because carrots come in many different sizes and shapes.

B. Because carrots are easy to grow and easy to harvest.

C. Because carrots can only be grown during the winter months.
