Stand-up comedy is becoming popular among the young in China. One person, man or woman, stands on stage and tells funny stories, or funny people or funny things that happened to them. The performers will try their best to make people laugh.
Stand-up comedy is different from other forms of acting. An actor usually has a script (剧本) to fall back on and a team of other actors to rely on. Unlike an actor, a stand-up performer is showing himself or herself but not creating characters. A stand-up performer fails or succeeds depending on his or her own talent. It usually takes days or even weeks of hard work to make people laugh for à few minutes. That’s why stand-up comedy has often been described as one of the hardest acts to complete successfully.
Stand-up comedy can take many forms. It can include a monologue (独白) on funny things that may form a story. It can be simply a series of jokes. It can also be performed almost anywhere — clubs, bars or parties.

The show is such a big success that it has opened a now door to the golden age of stand-up comedy. More and more young people have begun watching stand-up comedy, and some even start doing it part-time. They say it’s a great way to relax.

答案以及解析
一、单选题
1.答案：B
解析：句意：玛丽问我下周日是否和她一起去动物园。如果不下雨，我将和她一起去。考查时态。结合语境，第一句中“if”意为“是否”，引导宾语从句，主句是一般现在时，从句结合实际选择时态，根据“next Sunday”可知，第一空应使用一般将来时will do，排除选项A和D；第二句“if”意为“如果”，引导条件状语从句，遵循“主将从现”的规则，因此从句使用一般现在时。故选B。
2.答案：A
解析：句意：我听说，Tom每周去探望他残疾的父亲两次。考查一般现在时。本题that引导宾语从句，由于主句的时态为现在完成时，宾语从句的时态不受主句的影响。又因为从句中有标志词“twice a week”，强调习惯性、经常性，故用一般现在时。故选A。
3.答案：D
解析：句意：记者问孩子们他们种了多少树。考查宾语从句。宾语从句的语序是陈述语序，即“疑问词+主语+谓语”，排除B和C，宾语从句的时态遵循“主过从过”原则，主句是过去时，从句用过去的某种时态，排除A，故选D。
4.答案：A
解析：句意：吴先生大部分的事情都是亲自做的，而不是依靠别人。这就是他把生意做得很好的原因。考查介词短语。in person亲自；in public当众；in total总共；in fact事实上。根据“…instead of depending on others.”可知，此处是说“亲自做事情”，故选A。

6.答案：A
解析：句意：我没有太多德国历史的知识，但我认为最有可能选A。考查名词辨析。knowledge知识；material材料；joke笑话；interview面试。结合后文“I think choice A is most likely”可知主人公在做题，需要一定的知识储备。结合语境可知“有关德国历史的知识”，“much”修饰不可数名词。故选A。
7.答案：D
解析：句意：Steven告诉我他一周前就写完了报告。考查过去完成时。finish“完成”，根据“a week before”可知，从句时态用现在完成时，由宾语从句时态遵循“主过从过”原则可知，从句应该用过去的某种时态，所以空缺处应该用过去完成时，构成：主语+had+动词过去分词，故选D。
8.答案：B
解析：句意：如果你一定要去踢足球，等到放学的时候。考查连词辨析。whether是否；if如果；because因为；unless除非。根据“you must go and play football”可知表达“如果你一定要去踢足球”，是条件状语从句，用连词“if”引导从句。故选B。
9.答案：C
解析：句意：每个国家都有自己的民族英雄——一个为国家和人民做了重要事情的人。考查形容词辨析。private秘密的；common普通的；national民族的；personal个人的。根据空后“a person who did something very important for the country and the people.”可知，应是民族英雄。故选C。
