Each county is rich with history and its own unique stories. Colbert County, located in the northwest corner of the state, has its share of e
19、xciting stories and claims to statewide fame. The county was created on February 6, 1867, and Tuscumbia became the county seat (the town in which the offices of the county government are located).One of the most famous residents of Tuscumbia was Helen Keller. Helen Keller was born on June 27, 1880.
20、Her home was a white frame cottage built by her grandparents. Since ivy (常春藤) grew everywhere, the house was called Ivy Green. It was here, at the water pump in the backyard, that Keller learned the word “w-a-t-e-r” with the help of her teacher, Anne Sullivan. Visitors to Ivy Green can walk under bo

24、 made recordings at this studio.Visitors can continue to explore music in Alabama by visiting the Alabama Music Hall of Fame in Tuscumbia. Built in 1990, this site recognizes the musical talents of more than 500 Alabama residents in a wide variety of musical styles, including country and rhythm and

There are a great many talented musicians
26、 in Alabama.C. Music is the most important industry in Alabama.D. Alabama residents enjoy listening to music.41How many locations related to music in Colbert County are mentioned in the text?A. 1.

27、llerB. to visit businesses in AlabamaC. to stop for a visit in Colbert CountyD. to listen to Southern styles of music43The text is most probably taken from _.A. a story book B. a book reviewC. a personal diary D. a travel magazineCIn modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition
28、. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progressand prosperity (繁荣). Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth
29、relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit(追求)of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succe
30、ed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which only values the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among those who are against competition are young people who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teachi
31、ng these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not usually admitted by them is the belief that i
32、f they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot.Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that ones self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison
33、with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to disappear can we discover a new meaning in competition.44.What is the best title of this passage?A. Competition! Why friends turn into enemies.B. Competition! What self-respect depends on.C. New
34、 meaning found in competition.D. Two mistaken beliefs about competition.45.Why do some young people suffering from competitive pressures seek failure?A. Because they are aware that they will not succeed in competition.B. Because they dont think it worthwhile to compete with others.C. Because they ar
35、e afraid that they would not be valued if they lost.D. Because they are fed up with the great efforts needed to compete with others.46.Which of the following will the author probably agree with?A. One should treat competition as a life-and-death affair.B. One should make every endeavor to avoid comp
36、etition.C. One should get rid of the fear of failure in competition.D. One should be given rewards after competing with others.47.The true competitors and those with a desire to fail both believe _.A. ones self-worth comes from how well he performs in comparison with othersB. ones dream can be achie
37、ved if he has mastered good communication skillsC. ones failure happens when he is suffering from emotional problemsD. ones success is based on how hard he has triedDPeople have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed. Its not easy to explain why one person is intel
38、ligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative and another is competitive.Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of question. They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors. There are no clear answers yet, but two distin
39、ct schools of thought on the matter have developed. As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from each other, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory. The argument is often conveniently referred to as nature vs. nurture.Those who support the “nature” s
40、ide of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors. That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics and behavior is central to this theory. Taken to an extreme, this theory maintain
41、s that our behavior is predetermined(注定)to such a great degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts(本能).Proponents of the “nurture” theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claim that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining
42、 how we will act. Behaviorists see humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings. Their view of the human being is quite mechanistic; they maintain that, like machines, humans respond to environmental stimuli (something that helps sb./ sth. to develop better and m
43、ore quickly)as the basis of their behavior.The social and political connections of these two theories are significant. In the United States, for example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligent test. This leads some “nature” proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically wors
44、e than whites. Behaviorists, in contrast, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result ,they do not develop the same responses that whites do.Neither of these
45、 theories can yet fully explain human behavior. In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes. That the argument will continue for a long time is certain.48The author is mainly concerned about solving the problem .A. why our personalities and beha
46、viors differB. what makes different stages of intelligenceC. how social scientists form different theoriesD. what causes the “nature/ nurture” argument49The underlined word “proponents” can best be replaced by .A. approaches B. advocatesC. principles D. characters50Which of the following statements
47、may be supported by the “nature” school?A. We are born with certain personalities and behaviors.B. Environment has nothing to do with our personalities.C. Abilities and characteristics are showed by behaviors.D. Only extreme behaviors are determined by instincts.51 What can we learn about the behavi
48、orists?A. They believe human beings are mechanical.B. They compare our behaviors to the machines.C. They suggest that we react to the environment as the machines do.D. They agree that the mechanistic theory can be applied on us as well.EDear daughter,As we drove off from Columbia, I wanted to write
49、a letter to you to tell you all that is on my mind.I want to tell you how proud we are. Getting into Columbia is a real testament of what a great well-rounded student you are. Your academic, artistic, and social skills have truly blossomed in the last few years. You have become a talented and accomp

I encourage you to be inquisitive, but I also want to tell you: Education is what you have left after all that
51、is taught is forgotten. What I mean by that is the materials taught isnt as important as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject, and the ability to analyze a new problem. That is really what learning in college is about this will be the period where you go from teacher-taught to master-inspi
52、red, after which you must become self-learner. So do take each subject seriously, and even if what you learn isnt critical for your life, the skills of learning will be something you cherish forever.Follow your passion in college. Take courses you think you will enjoy. Dont be trapped in what others
53、 think or say. Steve Jobs says when you are in college, your passion will create many dots, and later in your life you will connect them. In his great speech given at Stanford commencement, he gave the great example where he took calligraphy, and a decade later, it became the basis of the beautiful
54、Macintosh fonts, which later ignited desktop publishing, and brought wonderful tools like Microsoft Word to our lives. His expedition into calligraphy was a dot, and the Macintosh became the connecting line. Enjoy picking your dots, and be assured one day you will find your calling, and connect a be
55、autiful curve through the dots of yourself .Most importantly, make friends and be happy. College friends are often the best in life, because during college you are closer to them physically than to your family. Also, going through independence and adulthood is a natural bonding experience.So please
56、treasure your college years make the best of your free time, become an independent thinker in control of your destiny, evolve yourself into a bi-cultural talent, be bold to experiment, learn and grow through your successes and challenges.When I faced the greatest challenge and opportunity in my life
57、 in 2005, you gave me a big hug and said bonne chance, which means good luck and good courage. Now I do the same for you. Bonne chance, my angel and princess.
