The classroom was filled with excitement as the girls discussed what they would wear and what they should bring with them. I sat back and listened, knowing that my parents did not have the money to send me. It made me 11 to feel so left out. But not Danny. He simply told everyone that he wouldn’t be going.

I could only sit quietly in my seat, knowing those 15 could be about me when they found out I would not be going either. “Dan, I’m very proud of you for 16 the situation that your parents are in,” Mr. Sims replied. Seeing the students whispering in the back, Mr. Sims spoke again, only 17 . “This year, we’re going to do things differently. The trip is not until the end of the month, so there’s plenty of time for money 18 . Each student must bring in at least one idea for that.

Do I still have to help?”“Shelly, this is not a matter of being rich or poor. Money is not just something that is handed to you when you get older.

The book is quite interesting and popular among kids. Even if I am an adult now, the book is 121 one of my favorites. After re-reading the book recently, I have 122 an important lesson from Tom Sawyer.In our daily lives, we are often given some boring or tiring 123 . What’s in your mind when your mother 124 you to do some chores? Have you ever wanted to complain (抱怨)? I think most people have.Tom Sawyer, however, had a different thought when he was given a boring task. One day, Aunt Polly told Tom to 125 the fence (篱笆). Tom was doing his job, when his friend Ben Rogers happened to pass by. Instead of complaining, Tom told Ben that he felt “ 126 ” about the task. “Only one in a thousand—maybe even two thousand—boys can do this!” Tom said.Tom’s words made Ben interested in the task. He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a 127 to paint the fence. If Tom had thought about 128 but complaining, he would have had a bad day painting the fence.This story teaches me a valuable lesson: Complaining is 129 . The next time you are given a boring or tiring task, don’t complain. Unlike what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer, it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you. So, don’t complain, 130 you’ll feel better and perhaps even do a better job!121．A．justB．stillC．evenD．hardly122．A．learnedB．taughtC．givenD．attended123．A．storiesB．wordsC．tasksD．lessons124．A．trustsB．allowsC．helpsD．asks125．A．paintB．repairC．examineD．cross126．A．boredB．excitedC．unexpectedD．disappointed127．A．methodB．hobbyC．dreamD．chance128．A．everythingB．anythingC．nothingD．something129．A．uselessB．endlessC．powerfulD．wonderful130．A．ifB．orC．butD．and（2023山西统考中考真题）请阅读下面短文，理解其大意，然后从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Joe got a bar of chocolate from his father for his cleaning work at home. 131 he was ready to eat it, his elder brother Jack returned home from school.

Even when he’s at home he always thinks about his 52 and hardly ever spends any time with my mother and me.As a doctor who ever 53 in Peking University and got his degree (学位) of medicine, he could make lots of money and only do half of the work he is doing now, but he chose to do more 54 and heavy work when he graduated. He spends every coin like it is his last although he makes a good salary (薪水). He always wears worn (破旧的) and 55 clothes, saying they are comfortable and suit him well and refuses to change. I sometimes get angry with him for not 56 his appearance, but he just smiles and says, Daddy has more important uses for the money, all right?”I never stopped being curious (好奇的) about how he spent his 57 . Then one day when I was reading the newspaper, a piece of news caught my eyes: “Doctor Li has 58 100,000 yuan to help 59 children in flood-stricken areas go back to school.” At that moment I suddenly understood what my dad had done.My father’s love for others has touched me 60 .

She said that our house was completely destroyed in a terrible tornado（龙卷风）. I felt 61 after hearing the news and then rushed back home. 62 ,neither of my parents got hurt. But Mum couldn’t stop crying since we had 63 left. Seeing the tears on her face, I walked up and tried to 64 her. After a short of fear, we calmed down and started to think about what could be done next. Some 65 from the local government came to help in time. They offered us some food and money which we needed most. We 66 the following few days in a community centre but still didn’t know what was waiting for us. One of my best friends, Elsa, hurried there with a large sized 67 in her hand. In it, there was some fruit, biscuits, two coats and so on. I found neither of the coats was 68 for me. But I really didn’t mind because her care was far more than that. It was more touching that I 69 got some books to read from her bag. As days went by, we 70 to my uncle’s old flat which stayed empty for a couple of years. It was much 71 , but after all it was a place called home. 72 we moved in, life was better. However, our relatives, friends and some strangers continued to help us. Thanks to 73 help, we finally lived through the pain. And for the first time I realized that 74 was enough when I had nothing else left in my life. Looking back now, the 75 time turns out to be an unforgettable experience.
