In Winters v. United States 在W与美国打官司(1908)的案件中,最高法 (1908), the Supreme Court held 院认为,根据领地建立的条约,美国印第安 that the right to use waters flow- 人享有使用流过或邻近FB印第安保留地的 Line ing through or adjacent to the 水的权利。 (5) Fort Berthold Indian Reservation was reserved to American Indians by the treaty establishing the reservation. Although this treaty did 虽然条约并未提及用水权,法院裁定,联邦 not mention water rights, the Court 政府在建立保留地时,希望公正对待印第安 (10) ruled that the federal government, 人,为其保留土地赖以生存的水。 when it created the reservation, intended to deal fairly with American Indians by preserving for them the waters without which (15) their lands would have been use- less.

A. Suggest why it might have been argued that the Winters doctrine ought not to apply to pueblo lands This fact, however, has not barred application of the Winters doctrine. Line59-72 B. Imply that the United States never really acquired sovereignty over pueblo lands C. Argue that the pueblo lands ought still to be considered part of federal public lands D. Support the argument that the water rights of citizens other than American Indians are limited by the Winters doctrine无关 E. Suggest that federal courts cannot claim jurisdiction over cases disputing the traditional diversion and use of water by Pueblo Indians不知道在说什么 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GWD-10-Q26: The passage suggests that, if the criteria discussed in lines 16 – 32 were the only criteria for establishing a reservation’s water rights, which of the following would be true? A. The water rights of the inhabitants of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation would not take precedence over those of other citizens.反 B. Reservations established before 1848 would be judged to have no water rights. C. There would be no legal basis for the water rights of the Rio Grande pueblos. Later decisions, citing Winters, established that courts can find federal rights to reserve water for particular purposes if (1) the land in question lies within an enclave under exclusive federal jurisdiction, (2) the land has been formally withdrawn from federal public lands — i.e., withdrawn from the stock of federal lands available for private use under federal land use laws — and set aside or reserved, and (3) the circumstances reveal the government intended to reserve water as well as land when establishing the reservation. D. Reservations other than American Indian reservations could not be created with reserved water rights. E. Treaties establishing reservations would have to mention water rights explicitly in order to reserve water for a particular purpose.无关 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GWD-10-Q27: According to the passage, which of the following was true of the treaty establishing the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation? A. It was challenged in the Supreme Court a number of times. B. It was rescinded by the federal government, an action that gave rise to the Winters case. C. It cited American Indians’ traditional use of the land’s resources. D. It failed to mention water rights to be enjoyed by the reservation’s inhabitants. E. It was modified by the Supreme Court in Arizona v. California. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GWD-10-Q28: The primary purpose of the passage is to A. trace the development of laws establishing American Indian reservations B. explain the legal bases for the water rights of American Indian tribes C. question the legal criteria often used to determine the water rights of American Indian tribes D. discuss evidence establishing the earliest date at which the federal government recognized the water rights of American Indians E. point out a legal distinction between different types of American Indian reservations |
