2017年山东省聊城市中考英语真题试卷(含听力材料无音频)

阅读理解

Lots of students know what a marathon (马拉松赛跑) is, but perhaps they don't know what a triathlon is. The triathlon is a sport that has three parts-swimming, bicycling and running. It is not an easy sport, but a man named Joe Salter is very good at it. A few months ago, he finished a special triathlon—he juggled (抛起接住) three balls all the time during the triathlon. That is to say, he kept on throwing and catching three balls while he was swimming, riding a bicycle and running.

    31-year-old Joe is from Florida, the USA. He loves juggling and he started at the age of 8. Joe did well in juggling.  Later, he got the idea to do a triathlon and juggle at the same time to make it more fun. Many juggling fans laughed at his idea and thought it was just a joke. But Joe didn't give up and he kept practising it. Because of his hard work, he made it at last.

    Talking about his triathlon, Joe said swimming was the hardest part. "It was difficult and complex(复杂的)," he said. "I basically only used my legs, so it took quite a lot of work. Also, swimming in open water made it a little harder. It was not like in a pool."

 Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage.(选择最恰当的单词或短语, 完成短文。)

When I was fourteen, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn't the first time I had been abroad. Like most English children, I learned French at school. And I had often been to France, so I was used to speaking a foreign language to people who didn't understand French. I believed that I wouldn't have any 1 problems when I went to America. So I was really looking forward to having a nice easy holiday there.

How2 I was! The misunderstanding (误解) began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to call my friend Danny who had been in America for two years and told her that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking confused and asked if he could 3 me.

"Yes," I said, "I want to give my friend a ring."

"Well, that's nice," he said. "Are you getting married? But aren't you a bit too 4 ?"

"Who is talking about marriage?" I replied. "I just want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've arrived. Can you tell me 5 the phone box is?"

"Oh! I see. " he said, "There's a phone downstairs."

When Danny and I met up, she explained the misunderstanding to me. Then I knew "Give somebody a ring" could mean deciding to get engaged or marry someone else. I felt shamed for myself.

"Don't worry," she said to me. "I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from the British. You'll soon 6 all the funny things they say. Most of the time British and American people understand each other!

 完形填空

Long long ago, there was a swan(天鹅)with golden feathers. She lived in a lake. A woman lived in a small house 1 the lake with her two daughters. They were very poor. They worked hard all year round, 2 still, they lived a hard life and sometimes they even didn't have enough 3 to buy food.

The swan was 4 to see that. She said to herself, "I'll give one of my 5 to them each day, then they can live a happy life with the money selling my feathers." That evening, she 6 to the poor woman's house and left a golden feather on the table without saying 7 .From then on, the swam came every day and gave them a feather. The woman was very happy because their life was much 8 than before.

But day after day, the woman became greedy(贪婪).She said to her 9 "The swan may fly away one day. If so, we will be poor again. We should take all 10 feathers if she comes next time."

"Oh, no, Mom!" cried the daughters, "This will 11 the swan. She helps us a lot !"But the mother wouldn't listen. When the 12 came as usual, the mother caught her and took all her feathers. But suddenly, the golden feathers 13 chicken feathers.

Then, the Golden Swan said, "Poor Mother, I came to 14 you, but you wanted to kill me. Now, I am leaving and will 15 come back. Never be greedy!" With these words, the swan left.
