2017年山东省泰安市中考英语真题试卷（含听力题目无音频）
[1]Once, when there was a famine（饥荒）, a rich baker sent for twenty of the poorest children in the town, and said to them, “In this basket there is a loaf（面包）for each of you. Take it, and come back to me every day at this hour for more.”
[2]The hungry children gathered eagerly about the basket, and fought over the bread because each wanted the largest loaf. At last they went away without even ______ the good baker.
[3]Gretchen, a poorly dressed little girl, did not fight or struggle with the other children, but stood quietly in the distance（远处）, When the badly behaved children had left. Gretchen took the smallest loaf, which was all that was left in the basket. She kissed the baker's hand and went home.
[4]第二天，孩子们表现得像以前一样糟糕。Gretchen got a loaf almost half the size of the one she got the first day. When she came home, her mother cut the loaf open. Many new shining pieces of silver fell out of it.
[5]Her mother was very worried and said, “Take the money back to the baker at once. The silver must have fallen into the dough by accident. By quick, Gretchen!”
[6]When the little girl gave the rich man her mother's message, he said, “It was no mistake, I had the silver pieces put into the smallest loaf to reward（奖赏）you. Always be as content（满足）,peaceable, and thankful as you now are. Go home now, and tell your mother that the money is yours to keep.”

Have you had a headache during a test? Have you ever been so worried about something that you have a headache or even can't sleep at night? If so, then you know what stress is.{#blank#}1{#/blank#} This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, sad, scared, or afraid — all of which can give you a stomachache or a headache.
However, there are different kinds of stress.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Good stress might happen when you are called to answer questions in class or when you have to give a speech.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} For example, you may do a better job on your test if the stress pushes you to prepare better before the test.
On the other hand, bad stress can happen if the stress lasts too long. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is sick, if you are having problems at school, or if anything else makes you unhappy every day. That kind of stress isn't going to help you. And it can actually make you sick.
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} If you get enough sleep and eat properly, and if you exercise and leave time for fun, you'll probably feel less stressed.

Time Will Tell Some students often ask,"Although I work hard, I still cannot get good {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(score) on tests. Why? How can I enjoy success?" The story of Chinese astronaut Deng Qingming might help to answer {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(they)questions. Deng was chosen as a backup (后备) astronaut {#blank#}3{#/blank#}1998. Since that day he had spent almost all of his time training hard to become {#blank#}4{#/blank#}astronaut. Over the years, Deng has seen his fellow trainees(实习生) go into space one after another. However, he {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(be) always a backup. He often felt upset. Sometimes, he even cried {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(sad). But Deng never gave up.{#blank#}7{#/blank#}he was in his fifties, he kept training hard."I must be ready whenever the opportunity (机会) comes to me,"he once said. Finally, on the night of November 29th, 2022, he and two other astronauts boarded the Shenzhou-15 aircraft and {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(fly) into space. Deng had waited 24 years for this very moment. So, if you want to give up learning something, think about Deng's story. Be{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(patient) and try to improve your methods and keep going. One day, success {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(knock) at your door! But unlike Deng, you probably won't even have to wait 24 years for that moment! |
