Lucy's owner moved away, and asked if we could "dog-sit " for a while. Little did we know that "a while" would last for almost three years. When Ricky died, Lucy, by then very old and blind, knew something was wrong, for after lying in the same spot for a full day, she eventually got up and slowly walked to where Ricky always lay. In the end, the two old friends died within days of each other. They are now buried side by side in our backyard.Many things made Lucy and Ricky unique. One was their unusual looks. Another was their gentle temperaments. But most important, perhaps, was their ability to communicate with each other — and, surprisingly, with me! I am a doctor, and looking at my patients, I could almost hear them explain their symptoms — if only I could listen with my heart.People have told me that I should get a new dog, but that would mean leaving one of the most important parts of my life behind. Amy Doherty, Ricky's vet (兽医) for fifteen years, said that she would miss Lucy more than Or try. That was a refreshing change in a world that sees so many animals abandoned (抛弃).For me, the quality of an animal's life is more important than anything else. Lucy and Ricky knew that they were loved, and perhaps that's what kept them alive for so long. The greatest loss was not the parting, but the joy that followed.11. Why did Lucy come into the author's life?A. Lucy's owner met the author.B. The author was asked to look after Lucy for a period.C. The author found Lucy in a park.D. The author adopted Lucy from a pet store.12. What happened after Ricky died?A. Lucy rushed to the backyard to take care of him.B. Lucy stayed in one place for a day.C. The author gave Lucy some medicine.D. The author took Ricky to see a vet.13. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The author is a veterinarian.B. Lucy and Ricky look the same.C. The author doesn't like taking care of animals.D. Lucy and Ricky died at different times.14. What does the author think is the most important thing for animals?A. Communicating with the doctor.B. Living a long life.C. Being abandoned by the owner.D. Feeling loved and cared for.15. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The author wants to keep a dog again.B. The author thinks the best thing in life is joy.C. The author doesn't want to visit the vet again.D. The author cherishes the time spent with Lucy and Ricky.以上是中考英语冲刺模拟试题的相关内容，希望同学们认真答题，练习提高自己的英语水平。

Which would you rather spend your money on, an outing with friends or a pair of expensive shoes? It is my opinion that spending money on experiences brings greater happiness.My first r___1___ is that experiences make us different as we grow. We are not the result of the things we’ve bought. Instead, we are the result of everything we’ve seen and done. For example, getting expensive clothes didn’t c___2___ me as a person, but the camping trip last summer certainly did. It made me more independent.In addition, I p___3___ experiences because they bring people together. Sharing a new experience develops stronger relationships and creates long-lasting memories. Three years ago I met some teenagers on a study trip and now I am s___4___ in touch with them, but I hardly remember what I bought during the trip.My final point is that, although some people say it is a great j___5___ to own things, I think using the things you own is more pleasant. For example, I spend most of my spare money on new parts for my old mountain bike, but I love the experience of c___6___, not owning bike parts!To sum up, experiences make us who we are and develop stronger relationships. So next time before you pay for something, give it some s___7___ thought. Ask yourself, “Which will I spend my money on, an outing or a pair of shoes?”B（2021·上海·统考中考真题）在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺。
