These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments like the Italian violins. But many 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 answered very quickly.Other people think the secret to those is the wood. The wood must be from certain kinds 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 understand 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 same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Somescientists think the secret may be the varnish (清漆). Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny(光亮的). It also helps the sound of the instrument. No one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.1．The passage is about .A．the old Italian violins B．musical instrumentsC．scientific ideas D．making violins2．Other people think the Italian violin makers .A．were lucky B．did not know much about the violinC．used many kinds of wood D．knew something special3．Violins made today _____.A．have the same size and shape as the old onesB．are better than the old onesC．sound the same as the old onesD．have the same varnish as the old ones4．Some scientists believe that the secret of the old violin was .A．their color B．their sound C．t heir varnish D．the music 5．Why was the violin painted with the varnish?A．To make the sound nice. B．To make the appearance shiny.C．To value the violin. D．Both A and B．pools. Summer in America is a time 66________ the outdoors, no matter how hot it might be.
