18、ry of party, but a celebration of freedomsymbolizing an end, as well as a beginningsignifying renewal, as well as change. For I have sworn before you and Almighty God the same solemn oath our forebears prescribed nearly a century and three-quarters ago. The world is very different now, for man holds
19、 in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globethe belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of
20、 God. We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americansborn in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud
21、of our ancient heritage, and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world. Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, b

23、k from this responsibility - I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it. And the glow from that fire can truly light
24、 the world. And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man. Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens
25、 of the world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth Gods

29、. D We should assure the survival and the success of liberty. 答案: 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 A 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B The composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozarts remarkable musical talent was apparent even before most children can sing a simple nursery rhyme. Wolfgangs older sister Maria Anna (who the family called Nanne
30、rl) was learning the clavier, an early keyboard instrument, when her three-year-old brother took an interest in playing. As Nannerl later recalled, Wolfgang “often spent much time at the clavier picking out thirds (三度音 ), which he was always striking, and his pleasure showed that it sounded good.” T
31、heir father Leopold, an assistant concertmaster at the Salzburg Court, recognized his childrens unique gifts and soon devoted himself to their musical education. Born in Salzburg, Austria, on January 27, 1756, Wolfgang had composed his first original work by age five. Leopold planned to take Nannerl
32、 and Wolfgang on tour to play before the European courts. Their first venture was to nearby Munich where the children played for Maximillian III Joseph, elector of Bavaria. Leopold soon set his sights on the capital of the Hapsburg Empire, Vienna. On their way to Vienna, the family stopped in Linz,
33、where Wolfgang gave his first public concert. By this time, Wolfgang was not only a skilled harpsichord player, but he had also mastered the violin. The audience at Linz was amazed by the six-year-old, and word of his genius soon traveled to Vienna. In a much attended concert, the Mozart children ap
34、peared at the Schonbrunn Palace on October 13, 1762. They completely attracted the emperor and empress. Following this success, Leopold received a lot of invitations for the children to play, for a fee. Leopold seized the opportunity and booked as many concerts as possible at courts throughout Europ
35、e. A concert could last three hours, and the children played at least two per a day. Today, Leopold might be considered the worst kind of stage parent, but at the time, it was not uncommon for prodigies to make extensive concert tours. Even so, it was an exhausting schedule for a child who was just
36、past the age of needing an afternoon nap. 【小题 1】 A good title for this passage would be _. A Classical Music in the Eighteenth Century: An Overview. B Stage Parents: A Historical Point of View. C Mozart: The Early Life of a Musical Genius. D Mozart: The Short Career of a Musical Genius. 【小题 2】 What
37、was the consequence of Wolfgangs first public appearance A He attracted the emperor and empress of Hapsburg. B Word of Wolfgangs genius spread to the capital. C Leopold set his sights on Vienna.

38、olfgang Mozart is directly supported by the passage except _. A Mozarts father made full use of his childrens talent B Maria Anna was also talented in music C Wolfgangs childhood was devoted to his musical career D Wolfgang preferred the violin to other instruments 【小题 4】 The word “prodigies” in the
39、 last paragraph probably means “_”. A unusually talented people B strict parents C greatest composers D generous people 答案: 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 D 【小题 1】 A It takes two to duet (二重唱 ), and one question for scientists is how these coordinated (协调的 ) performances arise in birds. Are they the resul
40、t of cooperation, a way in which one pair signals to others that theyve got it together Or are they the result of conflict, evolving to avoid one partners song interfering with the others A study of duetting in Peruvian warbling antbirds(蚁鸟 ) suggests that it might be a little of both, and that cont
41、ext is everything. Joseph A. Tobias and Nathalie Seddon of the University of Oxford show in Current Biology that sexual conflict can cause the female of a pair that normally cooperates to “jam” the males song by singing over it. The researchers exposed antbird pairs to recorded songs of other antbir
42、ds and monitored the songs the pairs produced. In one experiment, they played the songs of an intruding pair. In this case, the resident pair “both are likely to lose their territory, so both should cooperate,” Dr. Tobias said. And they do. They produce a coordinated duet that in effect tells the in
43、truders to keep away. But when the researchers played the song of a single female, the pair behaved differently. “Youd expect the resident female to be highly motivated to defend her position in the partnership,” Dr. Tobias said. And thats what occurs. The male sings its heart out, flirting(调情 ) wit
44、h the single female, and the female of the pair does its best to interfere with the song by singing over it, apparently to make her mate less attractive to the other female. “Its clear that the male doesnt like what shes doing,” Dr. Tobias said. The behavior “breaks up what is otherwise a very coope
45、rative situation into a more complicated signal,” he added. Its the first evidence of this kind of signal jamming among pairs, Dr. Tobias said. And in that it leads the male to alter its song to avoid the females interfering notes, it shows that this kind of conflict could, over a long period, drive
46、 the evolution of coordinated song. 【小题 1】 What is the key factor of antbirds duet A Their cooperation. B Their conflict. C The context. D Their instinct. 【小题 2】 How did the researchers conduct the experiment A They put the antbird pairs back to nature and observe them. B They played different recor
47、ded songs of other antbirds. C They put an antbird to the others territory and observed. D They played the songs of an intruding pair. 【小题 3】 Why did the female bird sing according to Paragraph 4 A It wanted to show its singing talent to the partner. B It aimed at keeping the partnership with the ma
48、le. C It wanted to frighten the other females. D It wanted to make her mate more attractive. 【小题 4】 Which of the following is the topic of this passage A The special phenomenon about birds pairs. B The conflict of bird pairs. C The cooperation of bird pairs. D The piece of music for bird pairs. 答案: 【小题 1】 C 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 B 【小题 1】 D Below is adapted from an English dictionary.
