One morning the old Waterrat put his head out of his hole.The little ducks were swimming about in the pond,and their mother,who was pure white with real red legs,was trying to teach them how to stand on their heads in the water.
“You will never be in the best society unless you can stand on your heads,” she kept saying to them;and every now and then she showed them how it was done.But the little ducks paid no attention to her.They were so young that they did not know what an advantage it is to be in society at all.
“What disobedient children!”cried the old Waterrat,“they really deserve to be drowned.”
“Nothing of the kind,” answered the Duck,“everyone must make a beginning,and parents cannot be too patient.”
“Ah!I know nothing about the feelings of parents,”said the Waterrat,“I am not a family man.In fact,I have never been married,and I never intend to be.Love is all very well in its way,but friendship is much higher.Indeed,I know of nothing in the world that is either nobler or rarer than a devoted friendship.”
“And what,pray,is your idea of the duties of a devoted friend?”asked a Green Linnet,who overheard the conversation.
“Yes,that is just what I want to know,”said the Duck;and she swam away to the end of the pond,and stood upon her head,in order to give her children a good example.
“What a silly question!”cried the Waterrat.“I should expect my devoted friend to be devoted to me,of course.”
“And what would you do in return?” said the little bird,swinging upon a silver spray,and flapping his tiny wings.
“I don’t understand you,” answered the Waterrat.
“Let me tell you a story on the subject,”said the Linnet.
“Is the story about me?”asked the Waterrat.“If so,I will listen to it,for I am extremely fond of fiction.”
“It is applicable to you,”answered the Linnet;and he flew down,and floating upon the bank,he told the story of
The Devoted Friend.

(2016高考阅读理解)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。
“Drink your milk.It’s good for you!” You’ve probably heard that many times,and it’s true.Milk contains calcium,which is a necessary nutrient for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong.The U.S.government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program,saying that students should drink one cup of fatfree or lowfat milk at each meal.
Last Thursday,however,a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program.The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) says,“Milk is high in sugar,high in fat and high in animal protein,all of which have negative effects on health.” “One of the only reasons people talk about dairy,or promote it,is that it is going to help build strong bones,” says Dr.Neal Barnard,president of the PCRM.There are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans,broccoli,cereals and tofu.Orange juice and soymilk that have calcium added to them also supply the nutrient.
Of course,calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth,but your genes,how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hour’s worth of exercise every day all play a part.
Some nutritionists disagree with the idea that milk isn’t important.Keri Gans,a dietitian,says,“I think it’s irresponsible to take away this beverage that children enjoy,especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day,and remove it from the lunch line.”
The U.S.government is studying the request of the PCRM,but a decision may be a long way off.Meanwhile,Marion Nestle,a professor at New York University,puts it best:“Milk has nutrients.Other foods have the same nutrients.It’s just a food.Like other foods,too much might be a problem.”
1.Why does the US government ask students to drink one cup of milk at lunch time?
A.They have been told many times.
B.They have taken the PCRM’s advice.
C.Fatfree or lowfat milk is less expensive.
D.Milk helps build students’ strong bones.
2.The underlined word “beverage” in Paragraph 4 most probably means “
”.
A.gene
B.idea
C.milk
D.lunch
3.What can we learn from Marion Nestle’s words?
A.Milk has more nutrients than other foods.
B.Milk is just a kind of common food.
C.Other foods also contain much calcium.
D.Too much nutrient lies in other foods.
4.What does the above text mainly talk about?
A.The best way to get the most calcium.
B.The connection between milk and health.
C.Different opinions about the importance of milk.
D.Whether to take milk off the schoollunch menu.
1.D [细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Milk contains calcium,which is a necessary nutrient for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong.”可以看出:牛奶中富含钙,这是维持骨骼和牙齿健康和强壮的必要营养物质。故选D。]
2.C [词义猜测题。在第二段中讲到PCRM认为牛奶有副作用,应该从学生午餐中去掉;而在本段中一些营养学家并不赞同此观点,所以Keri Gans的意思为“我认为把孩子们喜欢的牛奶去掉是不负责任的”,故猜测beverage的意思应为milk,故选C。]
3.B [推理判断题。根据他的话看出,他认为牛奶像其他食物一样都含有营养物质,牛奶就是一种普通食物,如同其他的食物,故选B。]
4.D [主旨大意题。文章讲述了美国的一些专家对牛奶的传统看法:认为牛奶对于补钙是非常重要的营养品,然而另一些专家却说牛奶含有很多的糖、脂肪和蛋白质,呼吁少喝牛奶,并不是“多多益善”。由此可以看出这是一场关于“牛奶”的辩论,没有提到最终哪一方获胜。故选D。]
(2016高考阅读理解)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的选项中选出最佳选项。
If a monkey takes a photograph,who owns the rights to it?The monkey or the owner or the camera?
That’s the question being discussed all over the Internet about this toothy selfie:a monkey “took” of itself with photographer David Slater’s camera.
Slater traveled to Indonesia in 2011 to get the perfect image of a black monkey.One of the monkeys came to check out his camera and took hundreds of photos of itself.
“They were quite naughty,jumping all over my equipment,and it looked like they were already posing for the camera when one hit the button,”Slater said.“The sound got his attention and he kept pressing it.At first it scared the rest of them away but they soon came back—it was amazing to watch.”
Most of the photos were unclear,but one of them was a cute selfportrait of a monkey appearing to grin.
Now the image has been uploaded to Wikimedia and Slater is not pleased.He has asked Wikimedia to remove the image from its pages because he owns the rights to it.It is included in Wikimedia Commons that is a collection of over 22 million images and videos that are free to use online and allows other websites to use it free of charge,it is harming his right to make money from “his” photo.
But Wikimedia says that because the monkey pressed the button to take the photo,Slater does not own the right to the photo and it is uncopyrightable.
Copyright law states that animals cannot own copyrights.“The term ‘authorship’ implies that,for a work to be copyrightable,it must owe its origin to a human being.Materials produced only by nature,by plants,or by animals are not copyrightable.”
Slater argues that the image was not produced only by monkey because a monkey pressed a button,but he did all the setting up.
“If the monkey took it,it owns the copyright,not me;that’s Wikimedia’s basic argument.What they don’t realize is that it needs a court to decide that.I’ve told them it’s not public domain,they’ve got no right to say that it’s public domain.”explained Slater.
1.We can infer that a monkey took photos of itself
.
A.for pleasure
B.on purpose
C.by accident
D.with the help of Salter
2.What made Salter angry with Wikimedia?
A.It uses images without paying money for their owners.
B.It collects images and videos without his permission.
C.It connects an image library to other websites.
D.It allows people to use the monkey’s selfie for free.
3.Salter claimed the right of the monkey’s selfie because
.
A.he created a background for the monkey to take photos
B.he taught the monkey how to press the button correctly
C.he prepared the camera for the monkey in advance
D.he guided the monkey to take a photo of itself
4.The last paragraph implies that
.
A.Wikimedia isn’t available for everyone
B.Slater may seek law to win his rights
C.the monkey has right of the selfie image
D.the copyright matters a lot to public domain
1.C [推理判断题。根据第四段的“‘...it looked like they were already posing for the camera when one hit the button,’ Slater said.‘The sound got his attention and he kept pressing it.’”可知,这只猴子是偶然碰到了照相机的快门,然后好奇才不断地摁快门,拍了许多照片。]
2.D [细节理解题。结合第六段的“...that are free to use online and allows other websites to use it free of charge,it is harming his right to make money from‘his’ photo.”可知,维基网站免费让人们使用图片和视频,因此没人给他付费了。]
3.A [细节理解题。从倒数第二段的“...because a monkey pressed a button,but he did all the setting up.”可知选A项。]
4.B [推理判断题。根据最后一段的“What they don’t realize is that it needs a court to decide that.”可知,他认为只有法庭才能判断谁拥有这张照片的版权,暗示他要通过打官司来争取这张照片的版权。]
