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, 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 need more life experiences to draw material from for her comedy. Foxx advised her to go out, live life, do 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. 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.

Ⅱ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a tradition that my sons, their wives, and our grandchildren would spend Christmas Day at our house. So we loaded Jake, our first pet dog, who was diagnosed(诊断为)with cancer, in the back seat of my car, setting out to buy things at dusk.
Our first stop was at the dollar store to pick up wrapping paper and decorations. As we approached the cashier desk, my husband said, “I'll be out in the car with Jake.” He returned a few minutes later. “Do you have the car keys ”
“No,” I responded. I searched the passages(通道) in vain before leaving the store as fast as I could. When I got back to the car, my husband was starting the engine. He told me it was our dog Jake that found the car keys. We drove to the grocery store. As we got out of the car, I reached down for my purse and fear stole over me as I realized it wasn't there. “Wait,” I cried to my husband. “My purse. I think I must have left it in the cart at the dollar store.”
My husband didn't say anything as we both climbed back in the car. Fifteen minutes later we returned to find another car now at the spot where we had previously parked. The cart was still there, but it was empty. I jumped out of the car and began searching the bushes. It didn't take long to realize my efforts were useless. My purse was gone. I started to cry.
“Are you alright, ma'am ” a woman about my age asked. I hadn't even noticed her approach me.
“I lost my purse at the dollar store, leaving it in the cart,” I stammered(结结巴巴地说). “I had over two hundred dollars in it. Even if we find it, it'll probably be empty,” I said sadly.
“I wouldn't be so sure of that. There are still some good people in the world,” she responded. “It may still show up. ”

基础过关练
Ⅰ.1.politicians　2.bath　3.agent　4.idioms
Ⅱ.1.deal with　2.in particular　3.When it comes to 4.aside from
Ⅲ.1.loosely　考查副词。设空处修饰动词fastened,应用副词作状语,故填loosely。句意:她把腰带松松地系在腰上。
2.at　考查介词。scream at sb.表示“对某人尖叫”,故填at。
3.unfortunate　考查形容词。句意:在外国把所有钱都丢了是不幸的。根据语境可知这里表示“不幸的”,应用unfortunate。
4.was criticised　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,此处为谓语动词。根据and后面并列的谓语动词felt可知时态为一般过去时,又因为主句主语The girl和谓语动词之间是被动关系(犯了错误的女孩被老师批评),因此用一般过去时的被动语态,故填was criticised。
5.be handed　考查虚拟语气。demanded后跟宾语从句,根据demand的用法可知,当demand接宾语从句时,从句中谓语动词应用should do,should可以省略。根据单句语法填空题的答题要求可知此处的should要省略,又因为从句主语homework与hand in之间为被动关系(作业被交),因此用被动语态,故填be handed。
Ⅳ.1.to a certain degree　2.had a sense of achievement　3.It is difficult for me to speak　4.He learnt to dance so fast that
Ⅴ.1.Whether;or not　2.whether/if;or not

长难句　
原句　At the age of 19, she received advice from Jamie Foxx, who suggested that she need more life experiences to draw material from for her comedy.

译文　19岁时,她接受了Jamie Foxx的建议,他建议她需要从更多的生活经历中为她的喜剧获取素材。

写作指导
情节线 情感线
时间 before Christmas Day 兴奋 着急 伤心 惊讶 感动
地点 the dollar store,the grocery store
人物 “我”、丈夫、小狗、陌生女人
背景 家人要回来过圣诞节,“我”和丈夫带上小狗去采购。
开端 “我”和丈夫到一元店买了包装纸和装饰品,丈夫找不到车钥匙,后来是小狗找到了。
发展 “我”和丈夫开车去食品杂货店。到了商店停车场,“我”发现钱包不见了,“我”和丈夫开车回到一元店的停车场,购物车还在,但钱包不见了。一个陌生女人走过来询问情况并安慰“我”。
Para. 1 The woman took my hand and pressed something into my palm(手掌) before closing my hand into a fist(拳头). ①陌生女人给我塞了什么东西 ②我又是如何反应的呢
Para. 2 When we arrived home there was a white car I didn't recognize in front of our house. ①会是什么人的车呢 ②发生了什么事呢 ③我是什么感受呢
One possible version:
The woman took my hand and pressed something into my palm(手掌)before closing my hand into a fist(拳头). “Merry Christmas,” she whispered in my ear, disappearing into the night. I was so shocked that it took me a minute to open my hand, but when I did, I gasped. I couldn't believe it; the woman had given me two one-hundred-dollar bills. What really mattered the most to me wasn't the money, but that I had come across someone special, someone who really cared.
When we arrived home there was a white car I didn't recognize in front of our house. A stranger stood on our front porch ringing the doorbell. Not only did she find my lost purse, but she drove half an hour to bring it back to me. This Christmas was a little sad because of Jake's illness. It was also a little more special, however, thanks to the two angels, each offering kindness to a crazy woman with a sick dog. I thanked them for their gifts and kindness to me. I would try to follow their example and pass their kindness forward.
