贵州江口县 2017 高考英语阅读理解一轮选练
(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?
只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。
2
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。]

minutes early and so inconspicuous that no one else in the restaurant looked up so much. Selena
was wearing Bebe shorts. She had a baby face and ordered a hot chocolate.
After making small talk about what she wore for the shoot, she dived into the subject of her career.
Selena declared 2012 the year of movies. She filmed three: Spring Breakers, a drama; The Getaway,
an action flick; and Hotel Transylvania, a comedy. Each is a marked move away from the teen style
that made her a household name.
Now that her Disney days are behind her, Selena is at that unstable point in a child star’s
career where she is trying to grow up---both as a person(she turned 20 in July)and as an artist.
“Being part of the Disney Channel was such a blessing, and I’m super happy with what my show
accomplished, but acting is something I would like to take on more seriously.” She continued,
“I don’t necessarily feel accomplished. I want to creat a whole different persona when it comes
to acting.”
Selena has been working fulltime since she was seven years old and scored a role on Barney&Friends.
In 2007, when she was offered the lead in Wizards of Waverly Place, Selena, her mother, and her
stepfather uprooted from Grand Prairie, Texas, to LA, where they are settling now.
25. When was it that Selena arrived at the low-key coffee shop?
A. At ten. B. At ten to nine.
C. At ten past nine. D. At thirty past nine.
26. Which of the following statements is ture according to the second paragraph?
A. Selena went into her film career as soon as we met in the coffee shop.
B. Three famous films filmed in 2012 have shown her teen style.
C. The film Hotel Transylvania is an action flick filmed in 2012
D. Each of the three films marks Selena’s move away from her teen style.
27. How did Selena think of Disney days which were behind her?
A. She thought of playing in Disney a blessing.
B. She didn’t feel very satisfied with her show in Disney.
C. She found her not accomplished in her performance in Disney.
D. She believed her being part in Disney Channel a blessing.
28. The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means “ _______”.
A. moved B. picked C. changed D. informed
参考答案 25-28: C D D A

【湖南省怀化市 2014 高考英语一模试题】B
The younger daughter of former New York Mayor Richard White has
moved her wedding from New Year’s Eve to this Thursday so her
mother, who has been fighting against cancer for 11 years, can take
part in the ceremony, a family spokesman said on Wednesday, Oct,
12, 2013. Elizabeth Lally White, who turns 28 on Thursday, will marry Sam Peterson in Spiaggia,
a restaurant on North Michigan Avenue. The reception also will be held at the restaurant, which
had been previously scheduled to host the couple’s engagement party on Thursday.
Lally White’s mother, Maggie, 68, was reported to have caught breast cancer in 2002. She had
an operation in her leg in April and she was hospitalized twice in the weeks following the procedure
for treatment of flu-like symptoms that doctors said were not related to the cancer. Maggie, who
has used a walker or a wheelchair during most public appearances in recent years, is well beyond
the average survival time for someone with breast cancer.
“As the mayor himself has said, she had a pretty difficult summer.” said Jacquelyn Heard, who
served Mayor White’s press secretary for years and followed him to the same international law
firm that he joined after leaving office in May. “She was not able to get around the way that
she normally would do. This year, she has had quite a few setbacks and they’ve been pretty well
documented. Lally White decided to reschedule the wedding so that her mom can participate in the
festivities (庆祝活动).” Heard said. Lally White is a doctoral candidate at De-Paul University
and plans to work with autistic (孤独症) children, and Sam Peterson works in insurance, Heard
said.
Richard and Maggie White married in 1972 and had three children in addition to Lally — Nora,
Patrick and Kevin. But Kevin was born with a disease and died in 1981 at 33 months.
