四川省绵阳市游仙区2024-2025学年九年级上学期开学考试英语试题
It was the final(决赛) of the national high school basketball game. For the first time in their history,a team from a small town faced last year's best team. The players thought they couldn't win and wanted to give up. Seeing this,the coach told them a story.
Peter was a woodcutter. He was afraid he would fall ill and die. His wife told him that as long as his hands and feet were warm,he wasn't dead.
One day,Peter went out to cut down trees. It was snowy and cold. After finishing his work,he noticed that his hands and feet were completely frozen. He thought he was dead,so he stopped working and lay down on the ground.
After Peter had been lying for a while, some wolves came over. They ate all the food in Peter's food bag. The wolves then noticed Peter lying quietly on the ground. They were getting closer to Peter. Peter thought, "If I weren't dead,I would kill you all. " When the wolves saw Peter doing nothing,they ate him.
As the coach finished the story,the players talked about how silly Peter was. At the same time,they realized what their coach wanted them to understand:the opposing(竞争的) team was like the wolves,and they were like the woodcutter. They should fight till the end,whether they were "alive" or "dead".
