答案：【解析】：本题是一篇英语阅读理解，主要讲述了动物学校开设了跑步、攀爬和游泳等课程，并要求所有动物都参加所有课程，但每个动物都有自己的特长和短板，导致他们在不同科目上的表现各不相同。题目主要考查了学生对文章内容的理解和细节把握能力。
1. 第一题考查的是对文章细节的理解，需要找出动物学校没有提供的科目。
2. 第二题考查的是对文章中鸭子的情况的理解，需要判断哪个选项关于鸭子的描述是正确的。
3. 第三题考查的是对文章中兔子离开学校的原因的理解。
4. 第四题考查的是对文章中“pride”一词的理解，需要判断其在文中的含义。
5. 第五题考查的是对文章主旨的理解，需要判断文章想要传达的信息。
【答案】：
1. B。根据文章第一段“Their subjects were running, climbing and swimming.”可知，动物学校提供的科目有跑步、攀爬和游泳，没有提供滑冰科目，所以答案是B。
2. C。根据文章第二段“Because she was slow in running, she had to stay after school and also give up swimming in order to practise running.”可知，鸭子为了练习跑步放弃了游泳，所以答案是C。
3. B。根据文章第三段“Later, he had to leave school because he failed the swimming exam again and again.”可知，兔子因为多次未能通过游泳考试而不得不离开学校，所以答案是B。
4. A。根据文章最后一段“In the end, a little eel that could swim very well, and could also run and climb a little, had the highest scores and became the pride of the school.”可知，鳗鱼因为成绩最好而成为了学校的骄傲，所以“pride”在这里指的是被其他动物喜欢的动物，即答案是A。但更准确的解释应该是“骄傲，自豪”，在此上下文中可以理解为表现最出色的动物，因此A选项“被其他动物喜欢的动物”是最接近题意的解释。
5. D。文章通过讲述动物学校的故事，暗示了学校应该如何教育学生，即要尊重每个学生的特长和差异，而不是一刀切。所以答案是D，即文章想要告诉我们学校应该如何教育学生。
