　　A

　　One morning the old Water-rat 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 Water-rat，“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 Water-rat, “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 Water-rat. “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 Water-rat.

　　“Let me tell you a story on the subject，”said the Linnet.

　　“Is the story about me？” asked the Water-rat. “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.

　　Ⅱ.完形填空

　　Sometimes we look in all the wrong places and to all the wrong people to get the support we need. It's taken me a while to learn that friendship can be found

　　__1__ than you think, even in your own home. Growing up, I knew I always had a great friend who is my elder brother. Besides the biological

　　__2__

　　we share, there is the common ground and shared history that have kept my brother and me

　　__3__

　　.

　　My brother and I have a tradition of never letting the other

　　__4__

　　the games that occurred between us during our childhood. To be frank, our games sometimes involved chasing my

　　__5__

　　around the house with a stick in my hand，swinging

　　__6__

　　. As for my brother，he invented the complicated

　　__7__

　　of pinning (按住) my arms down with his knees，sitting on my stomach

　　__8__ I was on my back and almost letting his “spit” drop on my face. If you don't know what spit is, consider yourself

　　__9__

　　. Your brother is so nice to you. My favorite memory is the time that my brother threw a dart(飛鏢) at the dartboard while I

　　__10__

　　to be standing in front of it collecting the darts. It happened all of a sudden. I remember how he stood there,

　　__11__

　　and half-smiling, watching the dart hang from my back，narrowly

　　me.

　　__13__ and comforting. One night we were staying at my aunt's house and I was really

　　__15__

　　remember what I was so sad about；the important thing is that I have this

　　__16__

　　of knowing he was there for me and feeling

　　__17__ by him. Looking back，it is nice to know that two brothers could share that kind of emotion with each other without even thinking about it. Society tells guys not to show

　　__18__

　　, but that didn't stop us. We were so innocent. I love that memory. I love the times I

　　__19__

　　him. My pain or heartache never needed any
