Leslie Jones is a well-known comedian and actress, best known for her time on “Saturday Night Live” (SNL) and her work in stand-up comedy. Her journey into comedy started unexpectedly.
When she was a college freshman, and a friend signed her up for a campus comedy contest. Despite having no previous experience in stand-up, she immediately felt comfortable on stage and won the contest. This experience lit her passion for comedy. However, Leslie Jones faced challenges in pursuing (追求) a professional comedy career.
At the age of 19, she received advice from Jamie Foxx, who suggested that she needed more life experiences to draw material from for her comedy. Foxx advised her to go out, live life, work various jobs, and gain a broader range of experiences to enrich her comedy. Jones took Foxx’s advice to heart and took on a series of jobs, including working as a justice of the peace at weddings and even working for a construction company owned by Scientologists. Throughout these experiences, she kept her ultimate goal of becoming a comedian in mind.
In her memoir, Leslie Jones, she reflects on her upbringing as a military brat, her journey through the male-dominated (男人主宰的) world of comedy clubs, and her eventual breakthrough when she joined the cast of SNL in 2014 at the age of 47.
One unique aspect of Leslie Jones’ comedy style is her commitment to physical comedy, even if it sometimes results in injury. She’s willing to take risks and use her physicality to get laughs from her audience. She’s known for her energetic and bold performances, which often involve physical performance or exaggerated movements.
In summary, Leslie Jones’ comedy career began unexpectedly in college, and despite facing initial challenges, she pursued a variety of life experiences to enrich her comedy. Her devotion to physical comedy and her unique approach have contributed to her success in the entertainment industry.

Many years ago, people relied on the sun, the moon and stars to find their way around. Later, the compass was introduced. And now, we have satnav (卫星导航) systems to guide us. A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user’s location. They send information to a receiver, such as a smartphone, to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning Satellite System, which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia’s Global Navigation Satellite system, the European Union’s Galileo and China’s own satellite navigation system, Beidou.
On October 18, 2017, an ARJ21-700 plane, which was the first domestically (国内地) produced jet equipped with the Beidou navigation system, successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad, according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China.
Since its introduction in 2000, the Beidou navigation system has been increasing numbers of applications linked to everyday life, from shared bikes to farming.
When it comes to shared bikes, smart locks that support Beidou chips offer more accurate positioning than others, making it easier to find a bike.
Farmers can use Beidou-enabled tractors to plow (犁) the soil and use unmanned aircraft with Beidou to sow seeds, which can improve efficiency and make better use of resources. Beidou’s farming applications have spread from Heilongjiang Province to Beijing, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hubei and other regions across China.
With its many uses, the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative. “To date, the Beidou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific region, as well as countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road,” said Yang Changfeng, chief designer of the Beidou system.
Today, there are more than 20 Beidou satellites above our heads, and China plans to launch even more this year to expand the Beidou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative.
“As Beidou expands its overseas reach, it will be increasingly popular in the logistics (物流) industry,” said Miao Qianjun, Secretary General of the navigation services association. “Ships, for example, can use it to position themselves while sailing across oceans to European countries, no longer limited to Southeast Asian regions in the near future.”
8. What is the purpose of the first two paragraphs
A. To compare some modern satnav systems.
B. To describe the benefits of satnav systems.
C. To tell us how satnav systems were created.
D. To introduce some satnav systems and their functions.
9. What can we know about the Beidou navigation system according to the article
A. It was used successfully in a new jet plane.
B. It is more powerful than other satnav systems.
C. It was introduced to China on October, 2017.
D. It wasn’t used in our everyday life until recently.
10. According to the article, the Beidou navigation system is already widely used for _______.
A. plowing the soil and sowing seeds
B. improving the efficiency of network
C. producing more smart locks for shared bikes
D. navigating ships across oceans to European countries
11. What is Miao Qianjun’s attitude toward the future of the Beidou system
A. Worried. B. Casual. C. Positive. D. Indifferent.
D
One of the world’s oldest preserved human settlements has been significantly damaged by pouring rain in Pakistan as the country battles the worst floods in its history.
Moenjodaro, a World Heritage site in the Indus River valley 508 kilometers (316 miles) from Karachi, was built in the Bronze Age, some 5,000 years ago. “Unfortunately we witnessed the mass destruction at the site,” reads a letter from the Cultural, Tourism & Antiquities Department of Singh state sent to UNESCO and signed by director Ihsan Ali Abbasi and architect Naveed Ahmed Sangah. The letter adds the site was being used as temporary accommodation for surrounding residents whose own homes had flooded.
Moenjodaro’s significance can’t be underestimated when it was added to UNESCO’s register in 1980, the organization wrote that Moenjodaro “bears exceptional proof to the Indus civilization,” comprising “the most ancient planned city on the Indian subcontinent”.
The letter explains some of the immediate actions the site team has taken to mitigate the flood damage, like bringing in water pumps and repairing brickwork. But it’s clear that these measures will not be enough.
Abbasi and Sangah ended their letter by asking for 100 million Pakistani rupees ($45 million) to cover the costs of full repairs. UNESCO has responded to the request for help, allocating $350,000 from its emergency fund for damaged historic sites in Pakistan during UN Secretary General António Guterres’s visit to the flood-stricken country this week.
The funds will go to Moenjodaro and other sites including the Amri Museum. While the sum is far less than needed to fully repair the sites, it will pay for urgent work while UNESCO and local organization consider the best way forward. Sadly, the conservators of Moenjodaro have known for some time that flooding could bring a serious risk to the site.
In their letter, Abbasi and Sangah express concern that Moenjodaro could be added to the list of UNESCO sites in danger, which the preservation body updates periodically to highlight historic places that are at severe risk of ruin.
12. What makes Moenjodaro special to Pakistan
A. The geographic feature it bears.
B. The role it played in fighting floods.
C. The mass destruction it suffered in history.
D. The value it holds in history and architecture.
13. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Reduce. B. Suffer. C. Avoid. D. Assess.
14. Which best describes the situation of the repair work made so far
A. Creative. B. Worrying. C. Impractical. D. Satisfactory.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Pakistan’s Deadly Floods Causing Widespread Damage
B. Moenjodaro Calling for Attention to Its Severe Damage
C. Moenjodaro Added to the List of UNESCO Sites in Danger
D. Pakistan UNESCO Site Moenjodaro Badly Damaged by Flooding
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
One of the major concerns of students in any speech class is stage fright. Actually, most people tend to be anxious before doing something important in public. The question is: ____16____
Acquire Speaking Experience
____17____. You enroll (注册) in a public speaking course, where you will learn about speech making and gain speaking experience. For most students, the biggest part of stage fright is the fear of the unknown. The more you learn about public speaking and the more speeches you give, the less threatening speech making will become.
____18____
How much time should you devote to preparing your speeches A standard rule of thumb is that each minute of speaking time requires one to two hours of preparation time — perhaps more, depending on the amount of research needed for the speech. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.
Think Positively
Confidence is mostly the well-known power of positive thinking. If you think you can do it, you usually can. On the other hand, if you predict disaster and doom (厄运), that is almost always what you will get. ____19____. Speakers who think negatively about themselves and the speech experience are much more likely to be overcome by stage fright than the speakers who think positively.
Don’t Expect Perfection
It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. Sometimes an error or two can actually enhance a speaker’s appeal by making her or him seem more human.
As you work on your speeches, make sure you prepare thoroughly and do all you can to get your message across to your listeners. ____20____. Once you free your mind of these burdens, you will find it much easier to approach your speeches with confidence and even with enthusiasm.
A. Prepare, Prepare, Prepare
B. You should take the first step
C. Be confident of failure
D. How do you make your speech attractive
E. This is especially true when it comes to public speaking
F. How can you control your nervousness to make it work for you rather than against you
G. But don’t get into a panic about being perfect or about what will happen if you make a mistake

Every girl dreams and Bonnie is no exception.

Later, she started taking ballet(芭蕾)lessons and all her teachers confirmed she was a good student. In the hope of becoming a great ballerina, she trained hard on a daily basis.
One day, she saw an advertisement that a famous ballerina troupe(舞团)would be performing in her hometown. And the whole town was talking about the troupe leader who was said to be the best ballet dancer in the world. Her thoughts ran wild. "I must meet the leader of the troupe and show him my skills" she said to herself.
She dressed herself in her best ballerina costume and managed to slip(溜)in the backstage without being noticed. To her luck, the leader entered the dressing room and she timidly knocked at the door "Come in" said a gentle voice. Opening the door, Bonnie saw a tall and slim man with a calm look on his face. She bravely approached him and handed him a bunch of red roses and in her excitement the thorns(刺)pricked(刺痛)her hand but she did not pay much attention to the pain.
The leader observed her action as she told him her dream. "Alright, you dance and I will give you my advice."
But half way through the dance he stopped her and said, "I'm sorry you're not good enough!" On hearing this, Bonnie 's eyes opened wide in shock. It was seconds before she could absorb what was said to her, "Not good enough !" she asked in disbelief. "Yes, not good enough." replied the leader. Boiled in shame(羞)and rage(怒), Bonnie ran out of the dressing room as fast as her legs could carry her. The leader's words were a huge blow to her confidence. Despite being so sad, she didn't give up her dream.

Many years ago, people relied on the sun, the moon and stars to find their way around. Later, the compass was introduced. And now, we have satnav (卫星导航) systems to guide us. A satnav system uses groups of satellites to show the user’s location. They send information to a receiver, such as a smartphone, to show us where we are.
The earliest built satnav system is the Global Positioning Satellite System, which belongs to the US. Then there is Russia’s Global Navigation Satellite system, the European Union’s Galileo and China’s own satellite navigation system, Beidou.
On October 18, 2017, an ARJ21-700 plane, which was the first domestically (国内地) produced jet equipped with the Beidou navigation system, successfully completed a test flight. The results showed the performance of the system developed by China matches that of similar systems produced abroad, according to the Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China.
Since its introduction in 2000, the Beidou navigation system has been increasing numbers of applications linked to everyday life, from shared bikes to farming.
When it comes to shared bikes, smart locks that support Beidou chips offer more accurate positioning than others, making it easier to find a bike.
Farmers can use Beidou-enabled tractors to plow (犁) the soil and use unmanned aircraft with Beidou to sow seeds, which can improve efficiency and make better use of resources. Beidou’s farming applications have spread from Heilongjiang Province to Beijing, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hubei and other regions across China.
With its many uses, the Beidou navigation system is even playing a big role in the Belt and Road Initiative. “To date, the Beidou system has covered most parts of the Asia-Pacific region, as well as countries along the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road,” said Yang Changfeng, chief designer of the Beidou system.
Today, there are more than 20 Beidou satellites above our heads, and China plans to launch even more this year to expand the Beidou network to better serve the Belt and Road Initiative.
“As Beidou expands its overseas reach, it will be increasingly popular in the logistics (物流) industry,” said Miao Qianjun, Secretary General of the navigation services association. “Ships, for example, can use it to position themselves while sailing across oceans to European countries, no longer limited to Southeast Asian regions in the near future.”
8. What is the purpose of the first two paragraphs
A. To compare some modern satnav systems.
B. To describe the benefits of satnav systems.
C. To tell us how satnav systems were created.
D. To introduce some satnav systems and their functions.
9. What can we know about the Beidou navigation system according to the article
A. It was used successfully in a new jet plane.
B. It is more powerful than other satnav systems.
C. It was introduced to China on October, 2017.
D. It wasn’t used in our everyday life until recently.
10. According to the article, the Beidou navigation system is already widely used for _______.
A. plowing the soil and sowing seeds
B. improving the efficiency of network
C. producing more smart locks for shared bikes
D. navigating ships across oceans to European countries
11. What is Miao Qianjun’s attitude toward the future of the Beidou system
A. Worried. B. Casual. C. Positive. D. Indifferent.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. C

One of the world’s oldest preserved human settlements has been significantly damaged by pouring rain in Pakistan as the country battles the worst floods in its history.
Moenjodaro, a World Heritage site in the Indus River valley 508 kilometers (316 miles) from Karachi, was built in the Bronze Age, some 5,000 years ago. “Unfortunately we witnessed the mass destruction at the site,” reads a letter from the Cultural, Tourism & Antiquities Department of Singh state sent to UNESCO and signed by director Ihsan Ali Abbasi and architect Naveed Ahmed Sangah. The letter adds the site was being used as temporary accommodation for surrounding residents whose own homes had flooded.
Moenjodaro’s significance can’t be underestimated when it was added to UNESCO’s register in 1980, the organization wrote that Moenjodaro “bears exceptional proof to the Indus civilization,” comprising “the most ancient planned city on the Indian subcontinent”.
The letter explains some of the immediate actions the site team has taken to mitigate the flood damage, like bringing in water pumps and repairing brickwork. But it’s clear that these measures will not be enough.
Abbasi and Sangah ended their letter by asking for 100 million Pakistani rupees ($45 million) to cover the costs of full repairs. UNESCO has responded to the request for help, allocating $350,000 from its emergency fund for damaged historic sites in Pakistan during UN Secretary General António Guterres’s visit to the flood-stricken country this week.
The funds will go to Moenjodaro and other sites including the Amri Museum. While the sum is far less than needed to fully repair the sites, it will pay for urgent work while UNESCO and local organization consider the best way forward. Sadly, the conservators of Moenjodaro have known for some time that flooding could bring a serious risk to the site.
In their letter, Abbasi and Sangah express concern that Moenjodaro could be added to the list of UNESCO sites in danger, which the preservation body updates periodically to highlight historic places that are at severe risk of ruin.
12. What makes Moenjodaro special to Pakistan
A. The geographic feature it bears.
B. The role it played in fighting floods.
C. The mass destruction it suffered in history.
D. The value it holds in history and architecture.
13. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A Reduce. B. Suffer. C. Avoid. D. Assess.
14. Which best describes the situation of the repair work made so far
A. Creative. B. Worrying. C. Impractical. D. Satisfactory.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Pakistan’s Deadly Floods Causing Widespread Damage
B. Moenjodaro Calling for Attention to Its Severe Damage
C. Moenjodaro Added to the List of UNESCO Sites in Danger
D. Pakistan UNESCO Site Moenjodaro Badly Damaged by Flooding

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
One of the major concerns of students in any speech class is stage fright. Actually, most people tend to be anxious before doing something important in public. The question is: ____16____
Acquire Speaking Experience
____17____. You enroll (注册) in a public speaking course, where you will learn about speech making and gain speaking experience. For most students, the biggest part of stage fright is the fear of the unknown. The more you learn about public speaking and the more speeches you give, the less threatening speech making will become.
____18____
How much time should you devote to preparing your speeches A standard rule of thumb is that each minute of speaking time requires one to two hours of preparation time — perhaps more, depending on the amount of research needed for the speech. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.
Think Positively
Confidence is mostly the well-known power of positive thinking. If you think you can do it, you usually can. On the other hand, if you predict disaster and doom (厄运), that is almost always what you will get. ____19____. Speakers who think negatively about themselves and the speech experience are much more likely to be overcome by stage fright than the speakers who think positively.
Don’t Expect Perfection
It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. Sometimes an error or two can actually enhance a speaker’s appeal by making her or him seem more human.
As you work on your speeches, make sure you prepare thoroughly and do all you can to get your message across to your listeners. ____20____. Once you free your mind of these burdens, you will find it much easier to approach your speeches with confidence and even with enthusiasm.
A. Prepare, Prepare, Prepare
B. You should take the first step
C. Be confident of failure
D. How do you make your speech attractive
E. This is especially true when it comes to public speaking
F. How can you control your nervousness to make it work for you rather than against you
G. But don’t get into a panic about being perfect or about what will happen if you make a mistake
【答案】16. F 17. B 18. A 19. E 20. G
【解析】

Actually, most people tend to be anxious before doing something important in public.(在任何演讲课上，学生最关心的问题之一就是怯场。事实上，大多数人在公共场合做重要的事情之前往往会感到焦虑)”讲述了人们在公共场合做重要的事情时会感到焦虑，结合空前的“The question is”和问号以及下文内容，空处应是一个问题，询问如何克服怯场，F项“你如何控制自己的紧张情绪，让它对你有利而不是对你不利”能够承上启下，符合题意。故选F。
【17题详解】
根据本段小标题“Acquire Speaking Experience(获得演讲经验)”和空后的“You enroll (注册) in a public speaking course, where you will learn about speech making and gain speaking experience.(你报名参加公共演讲课程，在那里你将学习演讲并获得演讲经验)”可知，本段主要讲述了要获得演讲经验，而报名参加公共演讲课程是获得经验的第一步，所以B项“你应该迈出第一步”符合题意。故选B。
【18题详解】
空处是本段小标题。根据下文“How much time should you devote to preparing your speeches A standard rule of thumb is that each minute of speaking time requires one to two hours of preparation time—perhaps more, depending on the amount of research needed for the speech. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.(你应该花多少时间准备演讲？一个标准的经验法则是，每分钟的演讲时间需要一到两个小时的准备时间，可能更多，这取决于演讲所需的研究数量。这看起来可能需要很多时间，但回报是值得的)”可知，本段主要讲述了要花时间准备演讲，所以A项“准备，准备，准备”适合作本段小标题，符合题意。故选A。
【19题详解】
前文“If you think you can do it, you usually can. On the other hand, if you predict disaster and doom (厄运), that is almost always what you will get.(如果你认为你能做到，你通常也能做到。另一方面，如果你预测灾难和厄运，那几乎总是你会得到的)”讲述了你的积极想法和消极想法会带来不同的结果，后文“Speakers who think negatively about themselves and the speech experience are much more likely to be overcome by stage fright than the speakers who think positively.(消极思考自己和演讲体验的演讲者比积极思考的演讲者更有可能被怯场影响)”讲述了怯场对消极思考和积极思考的演讲者的不同影响，由此可知，空处应承上启下，讲述上文提到的规律同样适用于演讲，E项“在谈到公开演讲时尤其如此”能够承上启下，符合题意。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据本段小标题“Don’t Expect Perfection”可知，本段主要讲述了不要追求完美，后文“Once you free your mind of these burdens, you will find it much easier to approach your speeches with confidence and even with enthusiasm.(一旦你把思想从这些负担中解放出来，你会发现更容易自信甚至热情地进行演讲)”讲述了把思想从这些负担中解放出来会更有利于做好演讲，由此可知，空处应讲述了这些负担是什么，G项“但是，不要对完美或如果你犯了错误会发生什么感到恐慌”符合题意。故选G。

【答案】36. why
37. will be provided
38. the 39. definitely
40. connection
41. by 42. impressive
43. them 44. Getting
45. whether##if
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了5G的发展将会带来的影响。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：5G正在发展，但我们大多数人都不确定它是什么，也不确定我们需要它的原因。分析句子结构，空处引导一个定语从句，修饰表示原因的先行词the reason，且从句中缺少原因状语，所以应用why引导。故填why。
【37题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：如果你问不同的人，你会得到不同的答案。分析句子结构并结合句意，在If引导的条件状语从句中使用了一般现在时表示将来，而主句应用一般将来时，即“主将从现”。主语you和provide之间是动宾关系，所以应用被动语态。故填will be provided。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意：专家们认为，4G正在逐步淘汰。on the way out意为“开始过时”。故填the。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：目前，尚不清楚5G对人们生活的确切影响，但人们普遍认为，5G肯定会比我们以前使用的任何一代网络都快。空处应用副词，修饰谓语动词。definitely意为“肯定”。故填definitely。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意：工作可能会变得容易得多，因为5G将允许更快的下载和更好的在线工作能力，即使没有WiFi连接。if从句中是there be结构，所以空处应用名词，connection意为“连接”。故填connection。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：随着5G的发展，无人驾驶汽车将能够与其他车辆进行通信，这可以将道路事故减少约10%。reduce by...意为“减少……”，后跟减少的百分比。故填by。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意：最令人印象深刻的事情之一是，当火车到达车站时，人们可以看到火车上的哪些座位是他们可以用的。空处应用形容词，作定语。impressive意为“令人钦佩的，令人印象深刻的”。故填impressive。
【43题详解】
考查代词。句意参考上题。空处应用代词宾格，作宾语。故填them。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：环游世界也会更方便。分析句子结构，空处应用动名词作主语。故填Getting。
【45题详解】
考查主语从句。句意：5G将覆盖全国多少地区，以及是否每个人都能从中受益，还有待观察。分析句子结构，It作形式主语，how和空处引导的主语从句是真正的主语。根据空后的成分和意义可知，这里表示“是否每个人都能从中受益”，成分完整，但缺少“是否”的含义，所以应用whether或if引导。故填whether/if。

Every girl dreams and Bonnie is no exception. When Bonnie was young, she had read dozens of books on how to be a ballerina(芭蕾舞者), Swan Lake(天鹅湖)was her favorite and she had always wanted to become the white swan in it. Later, she started taking ballet(芭蕾)lessons and all her teachers confirmed she was a good student. In the hope of becoming a great ballerina, she trained hard on a daily basis.
One day, she saw an advertisement that a famous ballerina troupe(舞团)would be performing in her hometown. And the whole town was talking about the troupe leader who was said to be the best ballet dancer in the world. Her thoughts ran wild. "I must meet the leader of the troupe and show him my skills" she said to herself.
She dressed herself in her best ballerina costume and managed to slip(溜)in the backstage without being noticed. To her luck, the leader entered the dressing room and she timidly knocked at the door "Come in" said a gentle voice. Opening the door, Bonnie saw a tall and slim man with a calm look on his face. She bravely approached him and handed him a bunch of red roses and in her excitement the thorns(刺)pricked(刺痛)her hand but she did not pay much attention to the pain.
The leader observed her action as she told him her dream. "Alright, you dance and I will give you my advice."
But half way through the dance he stopped her and said, "I'm sorry you're not good enough!" On hearing this, Bonnie 's eyes opened wide in shock. It was seconds before she could absorb what was said to her, "Not good enough !" she asked in disbelief. "Yes, not good enough." replied the leader. Boiled in shame(羞)and rage(怒), Bonnie ran out of the dressing room as fast as her legs could carry her. The leader's words were a huge blow to her confidence. Despite being so sad, she didn't give up her dream.

Paragraph 2:
Within three years, Bonnie had become a famous ballerina as she wanted.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Six months later, she heard that the same ballet troupe was performing in her town again. Bitter memories of the leader's harsh words came flooding back to her. This time she was determined to find out why the leader had told her she was not good enough when all her teachers thought otherwise. He replied, “I tell this to every student.” She angrily shot back, “You've ruined my life!” Then she got a further shock, “I remember your gift of roses and how the thorns had pricked your fingers but you carried on bravely.” He said if she did not give up so easily, it might be a different story.
Within three years, Bonnie had become a famous ballerina as she wanted. Guided by the troupe leader, she succeeded in attaining the leading position in the Swan Lake. Her elegant appearance and excellent performance on the stage was so amazing that she gained power over all the audiences. Despite being so famous, Bonnie still felt nervous sometimes. But one word would always calm her down: “If you want to pick roses, don’t be afraid of the thorns.”
