At that time some tribes cultivated it at sea level, others at elevation(海拔高度) of more than 11 000 feet.“Colu

26、mbus had no way of knowing that corn was far more valuable than the spices(香料) and gold he had hoped to find.“ said Frances B. King, a professor at a university of Pittsburgh.

27、12 feet, and their maturity ranges from little more than 2 months to almost a year. Their ears vary not only in color, but also in size.Unlike other cereals(谷类), corn bears little resemblance to its wild ancestors. In fact, it differs from the appearance of its immediate ancestors more than any othe

28、r cultivated plant known. From humble origins as a lowland grass, corn developed into the western worlds important grain. As its high yields allowed communities to grow far beyond what early agriculture could feed, most scientists viewed corn as having largely fueled pre-Columbian growth and civiliz

29、ation.Now, new findings are greatly altering researchers notions about the time when com revolution occurred. New dates for its emergence from Mesoamenrica do not support the widely held view.

33、)The Internet can make the news more democratic, giving the public a chance to ask questions and seek out facts behind stories and candidates, according to the head of the largest US on-line service.“But the greatest potential for public participation is still in the future,“ Steven Case, chairman o

34、f America On-line, told a recent meeting on Journalism and the Internet sponsored by The Freedom Forum(讨论会), though some other speakers say the new technology of computers is changing the face of journalism, giving reporters access to more information and their readers a chance to ask questions and

35、turn to different sources.“You dont have to buy a newspaper and be confined to the four comers of that paper anymore,“ Sam Meddis, on-line technology editor at USA Today, observed about the variety of information available to computer users.But the speakers noted the easy access to the Internet also

36、 means anyone can post information for others to see. “Anyone can say anything they want, whether its right or wrong,“ said Case.

37、portant, not less,“ Case said.The Internet today is about where radio was 80 years ago, or television 50 years ago or cable 25 years ago, he said.

41、misticC.doubtfulD.unknown十、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：8.00)No artist has affected modern art more than Pablo Picasso. The thousands of masterpieces he created changed the way people thought about art. Picasso was perhaps the most talented and successful artist who ever lived.Pablo Picasso was born in 18

42、81 in a small town on the southern coast of Spain. His father was a painter who taught art. Picasso showed exceptional talent at an early age and, by the time he was in his teens, painted better than his father or any of the local art teachers. At sixteen, Picasso was sent to the Royal Academy of Ma

43、drid, where students drew from plaster casts and copied works of the old masters. Picasso felt these assignments were pointless and began to work on his own. Picassos father soon became angry with his sons rebellious behavior, long hair, and strange clothes. He believed that Picasso was wasting tale

44、nt and scolded him, “Why dont you cut your hair and paint sensibly?“In 1900, Picasso left for Paris - then the center of the art world. He lived in a cold, rundown building, painting constantly, sometimes surviving for days on only a piece of bread. During these years, his art reflected his gloomy s

45、urroundings. The homeless were subject of many of his fairly realistic early paintings. After seeing African masks and sculptures(雕塑),his works became more simplified and angular(僵硬的) leading up to the revolutionary new style known as Cubism.Picasso didnt sell much of his works during these early ye

46、ars. But he worked continuously, always experimenting with different styles of painting. Though Picasso lived to be ninety-two and became the most famous artist in the world, he spoke of his youthful days in Paris as “the happiest time in my life“.（分数：8.00）(1).Why did the writer say that “No one has
