参考答案 (一)

The Use of the Cock and the Hen

The cock is useful. He always gets up first and cries, “Cock-a-doodle-doo！” to wake all people in the house up.

The hen is useful, too. On the one hand, she tries to find food for pretty little chickens; on the other hand, she lays a nice fresh egg for her master's breakfast. Her mistress makes many nice things with her eggs for the children. She could get on well with eggs.

In a word, both the cock and the hen are useful. It is wrong of them to see their own use only instead of seeing each other's use.
