Lisening Passege

Da Vinci: Mona Lisa
The article "Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa" offers theories about who the real Mona Lisa was. Based on the information in the article, name one possible identity of the Mona Lisa. Use details from the article to support your answer.


One possible identity of Mona Lisa is Leonardo da Vinci because they study the drawing and and Norris that it look like him in the drawing and it was identical to him and it was very special to him because he tuck it were he went he went. I mostly think is a portrait because he wanted to draw him as a girl and make him self famous and people to wonder about the drawing.

Do people ever really change?

People couldn't change of the problems they are in to.For example for some people is very difficult to solve there problems because there addictive to something thing. Problems are different to solve. Like this girl i know is addictive to drugs and can't live without drugs. Every time he tray's to end he don't last long without drugs.

Question:
How does the information in the box "A Day in the life (of me!)" help the understand the article?

The information in the box help he understand the story better by explaining what she doses in her day and like at what time she eats. I think she is very healthy and strong because she stretch and eat two times a day. She mostly have a normal life she plays guitar and did most things we do but I think I wont survive there without T.V and more, without all of that technology i will get bored.
