Passage3The Musee du Louvre houses the greatest collection of art anywhere in Europe, within a palace that is a masterpiece in its own right. It is, by some distance, the most popular museum in the world.Yet the Louvre is being held hostage by the Kim Kardashian of 16th-century Italian portraiture. Some 80% of visitors, according to the Louvre’s research, are here for the Mona Lisa--and most of them leave unhappy.This past summer, amid 100-degree-plus heat, the Louvre undertook a renovation of the Mona Lisa’s gallery. Relocated to the Richelieu painting wing, the Mona Lisa reduced the museum’s Flemish collection into wallpaper for a cattle pen, where guards shooed along irritated, sweaty selfie-snappers who’d endured a half-hour line.The Louvre does not have an overcrowding problem per se. It has Mona Lisa problem. No other iconic painting--not Botticell’s “Birth of Venus” at the Uffizi in Florence, not Klimt’s “Kiss” at the Belvedere in Vienna, not “Starry Night” at Museum of Modern Art in New York--comes anywhere close to monopolizing its institution like she does. And if tourist numbers continue to rise, if last year’s 10 million visitors become next year’s 11 or 12, the place is going to crack.It is time for the Mona Lisa to go. She needs her own space. Build a pavilion for her that is optimized for the crowds.No work of art should make people miserable. Let Paris’ millions of future visitors enjoy the art, the shopping and the selfies at the Mona Lisa Pavilion. Then let them rediscover the Louvre as a museum.Questions 46-50 are based on this passage.46. The word “houses” in Para.1 means__________.

A. shelter
