It is a common experience: You’re checking through a social media page, and you see pictures of friends traveling or going to parties. Suddenly you start to wonder why you are not doing those things. Are you missing out on something fun or exciting? This experience is known as FOMO—the fear of missing out. In some ways, people have always been worried about missing out on social events. But with the rise of social media, FOMO is becoming much more common.
While wanting to take part in exciting things is completely normal, it can bring about some negative (负面的) effects. For some people, it leads to an obsession (沉迷) with checking their phones to find out what other people are doing. Even while doing things that are fun or necessary, people can feel like there’s something better going on elsewhere. This strong wish to connect can make them disconnect from the people they are actually with. It stops them from being satisfied with the good things in their lives. It can even be dangerous; some people try to check messages while driving.
So what can we do to overcome FOMO? Firstly, it is important to remember that what people prefer to pick and choose to post on social media doesn’t necessarily show their life overall, so we only know a small part of anyone else’s life. It is also important to accept your limitations. You can’t be everywhere and do everything that might be interesting, and that’s OK. It might even be necessary to turn off your phone or log out of social media for a while. Stay away from the constant reminders of everything that’s happening in the world. You can even set particular times in your day to check email or social media. By stepping away for a time, you can view others’ lives in a reasonable way. Finally, focus on the things in front of you. Relish them, do them well and let everything else go. When you are fully involved in life, you will worry less about what you are not doing.
Don’t let the fear of missing out cause you to miss out on the good things you have in life. Relax, enjoy what you do and let other people enjoy their lives without envying (羡慕，嫉妒) them.
27. Experiencing FOMO, people may ________.
A. like to drive fast B. miss out on social events
C. prefer to stay alone D. be unsatisfied with real life
28. What does the underlined word “relish” probably mean?
A. Break. B. Change. C. Enjoy. D. Remember.
29. According to the passage what can help people overcome FOMO?
A. Breaking their own limitations.
B. Staying away from social media.
C. Making friends as many as possible.
D. Checking social media at particular times.
【答案】27. D 28. C 29. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍的是错失恐惧症FOMO。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据“It stops them from being satisfied with the good things in their lives”可知，会让人们无法满足于现实生活，故选D。
【28题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Finally, focus on the things in front of you. Relish them, do them well and let everything else go”可知，关注你面前的事情，欣赏它们，让其它一切都过去，故relish与enjoy同义，故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据“You can even set particular times in your day to check email or social media”可知，在特定的时间来查看社交媒体，可以帮助人们克服FOMO。故选D。

Chinese athletes did a great job at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, winning 88 medals in total. But did you know that there are many cool technologies behind their success?
Su Bingtian, the first Chinese sprinter, reached an Olympic 100m final. With the help of scientific training, he made his breakthrough. “It takes Su 47 steps to run 100 meters. Each step counts,” Liang Dong, a member of Su’s training team, told Shenzhen Evening News. “Randy Huntington, Su’s American coach and a biomechanics (生物力学) expert in track and field, has collected a lot of data (数据) on outstanding sprinters and built a database. He put in all of Su’s data and got a near-optimal (接近最优的) model. When Su is training, the team uses high-speed cameras to record his training and compares it with the model to find out his weaknesses.”
Technology has also brought a new improvement to table tennis. On July 27, the semifinal match between China’s Sun Yingsha and Japan’s Mimaito was in full swing (正在全力进行) at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. You wouldn’t have guessed that besides players, judges and audiences, a powerful AI platform was watching the match.
Every serve, swing and movement of Mimaito was caught by this AI cloud platform set in Tokyo. At an average speed of 100 Mbps, the data was sent to the technical team of the Zhejiang University Table Tennis Intelligent Big Data Analysis Platform, 2, 442 kilometers away from the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, according to The Paper.
The platform has stored the data of more than 8, 000 matches so far. The research team has been working on match simulation (模拟) since 2018. “Using big data and AI, we can correctly simulate and predict how the winning rate will change when players change certain tactics (策略),” Professor Wu Yingcai, the main developer of the platform, told CCTV-2.
The Tokyo Olympic Games have seen not only scientific support in training, but many cutting-edge technologies in athletes’ devices (设备). For example, the Kenya women’s volleyball team’s GPS devices fed data on each player’s strength, heart rate and so on to coaches, who used the information to prevent injury (受伤) and personalize training plans for each individual, South China Morning Post reported.
30. What helped Su Bingtian a lot to make his breakthrough?
A. His scientific training. B. Support from his family.
C. His coach’s encouragement. D. Support from other sprinters.
31. What’s the advantage of match simulation according to Professor Wu Yingcai?
A. Players can study other players’ tactics.
B. Players can know their own weaknesses.
C. It helps players improve their winning rate.
D. It helps judges make the correct judgement.
32. The GPS devices can help coaches ________.
A. quickly find out players’ information
B. give proper treatment for sports injuries
C. make better decisions for future training
D. follow players’ movement during the game
33. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The success of the Tokyo Olympics.
B. The advantages of using AI at the Tokyo Olympics.
C. The ways athletes prepared for the Tokyo Olympics.
D. Technologies that helped athletes at the Tokyo Olympics.
【答案】30. A 31. C 32. C 33. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了帮助东京奥运会运动员的几种技术。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据“With the help of scientific training, he made his breakthrough.”可知，在科学训练的帮助下，他取得了突破。故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Using big data and AI, we can correctly simulate and predict how the winning rate will change when players change certain tactics (策略)”可知，利用大数据和人工智能，我们可以正确地模拟和预测当玩家改变某些战术时，胜率会如何变化。所以吴教授认为比赛模拟的优势是它有助于提高他们的获胜率，故选C。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据“For example, the Kenya women’s volleyball team’s GPS devices fed data on each player’s strength, heart rate and so on to coaches, who used the information to prevent injury (受伤) and personalize training plans for each individual”可知，肯尼亚女子排球队的GPS设备将每个运动员的力量、心率等数据提供给教练，教练使用这些信息来防止受伤，并为每个人制定个性化的训练计划。所以GPS设备可以帮助教练为将来的培训做出更好的决定，故选C。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章提到的短跑运动员的数据库、AI监控平台、云平台、比赛模拟等，可知本文主要介绍了帮助东京奥运会运动员的几种技术。故选D。

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Today, our currency (货币) is a mixture of metal coins and paper money, but it wasn’t always that way. Before metal coins and paper bills existed (存在), people used a lot of unusual things to buy what they needed. In one part of the world, for example, people used the sharks’ teeth for money, while in another place, rare seashells were money.
There are many fantastic facts about the history of money. Bright feathers were the lightest money used by people on a Pacific island. Stones were the heaviest money and some weighed over 500 pounds. Greece used a lot of metal coins which were smaller than apple seeds. They were the smallest money ever used.
No one knows for sure when people started using metal coins for money. Scientists have found coins dating from 600 BC, so we know they have been around for a long time. At first people used the precious metals, such as gold and silver to make coins. In the 1200s, people in China used iron (铁) coins for their currency. These coins weren’t worth very much, so people had to use a lot of them to make their purchases (购买物). Because iron coins were inconvenient, the government started printing paper bills. People took these bills to banks and traded them in for coins. This is the first example we have of paper money.
Today, most countries use a mixture of coins and paper bills for their currency. In some countries, the paper bills are all the same size and color. In many others, the bills come in various sizes and colors. This makes it easier for people to tell the value of their money.
In 2002, twelve European countries started using a completely new currency. It’s called the euro. Many Europeans miss their old currencies, but now it is easier to move money from one country to another.
34. What did people use to buy things before metal coins and paper bills existed?
_________________________________________________________________________
35 What was the lightest money ever used on a Pacific island?
_________________________________________________________________________
36. When did China use iron coins for their currency?
_________________________________________________________________________
37. Why did many countries use bills in various sizes and colors?
_________________________________________________________________________
38. What is the passage mainly talking about?
_________________________________________________________________________
【答案】34. A lot of unusual things.
35. Bright feathers.
36. In the 1200s.
37. Because it is easier for people to tell the value of their money.

I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours faithfully,

【答案】例文：
Dear Wang Yaping,
I’m Li Hua, a middle school student in Beijing. When I learned from the TV news that on October 16, 2021, you successfully arrived in space in China’s Zhengzhou XIII spacecraft, I couldn’t help feeling a shock in my heart. You are 1,300,000,000 prides of the Chinese, you also became my hero in the heart. I’m writing to know something about your life and work in space for nearly three months. How do you eat, walk and write?
I know that scientific research into space is not an easy task. The pilot not only needs the hard technique, but also needs the self-confidence and courage. What did you see on the airship? I don’t know whether the space that you see is similar to the space that I fantasize! The space is extensive and limitless. You are all the heroes of the motherland. You are the pride of the motherland. You are our lasting model. When I grow up, I also want to be an astronaut.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua

It is a common experience: You’re checking through a social media page, and you see pictures of friends traveling or going to parties. Suddenly you start to wonder why you are not doing those things. Are you missing out on something fun or exciting? This experience is known as FOMO—the fear of missing out. In some ways, people have always been worried about missing out on social events. But with the rise of social media, FOMO is becoming much more common.
While wanting to take part in exciting things is completely normal, it can bring about some negative (负面的) effects. For some people, it leads to an obsession (沉迷) with checking their phones to find out what other people are doing. Even while doing things that are fun or necessary, people can feel like there’s something better going on elsewhere. This strong wish to connect can make them disconnect from the people they are actually with. It stops them from being satisfied with the good things in their lives. It can even be dangerous; some people try to check messages while driving.
So what can we do to overcome FOMO? Firstly, it is important to remember that what people prefer to pick and choose to post on social media doesn’t necessarily show their life overall, so we only know a small part of anyone else’s life. It is also important to accept your limitations. You can’t be everywhere and do everything that might be interesting, and that’s OK. It might even be necessary to turn off your phone or log out of social media for a while. Stay away from the constant reminders of everything that’s happening in the world. You can even set particular times in your day to check email or social media. By stepping away for a time, you can view others’ lives in a reasonable way. Finally, focus on the things in front of you. Relish them, do them well and let everything else go. When you are fully involved in life, you will worry less about what you are not doing.
Don’t let the fear of missing out cause you to miss out on the good things you have in life. Relax, enjoy what you do and let other people enjoy their lives without envying (羡慕，嫉妒) them.
27. Experiencing FOMO, people may ________.
A. like to drive fast B. miss out on social events
C. prefer to stay alone D. be unsatisfied with real life
28. What does the underlined word “relish” probably mean?
A. Break. B. Change. C. Enjoy. D. Remember.
29. According to the passage what can help people overcome FOMO?
A. Breaking their own limitations.
B. Staying away from social media.
C. Making friends as many as possible.
D. Checking social media at particular times.
【答案】27. D 28. C 29. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍的是错失恐惧症FOMO。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据“It stops them from being satisfied with the good things in their lives”可知，会让人们无法满足于现实生活，故选D。
【28题详解】

Chinese athletes did a great job at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, winning 88 medals in total. But did you know that there are many cool technologies behind their success?
Su Bingtian, the first Chinese sprinter, reached an Olympic 100m final. With the help of scientific training, he made his breakthrough. “It takes Su 47 steps to run 100 meters. Each step counts,” Liang Dong, a member of Su’s training team, told Shenzhen Evening News. “Randy Huntington, Su’s American coach and a biomechanics (生物力学) expert in track and field, has collected a lot of data (数据) on outstanding sprinters and built a database. He put in all of Su’s data and got a near-optimal (接近最优的) model. When Su is training, the team uses high-speed cameras to record his training and compares it with the model to find out his weaknesses.”
Technology has also brought a new improvement to table tennis. On July 27, the semifinal match between China’s Sun Yingsha and Japan’s Mimaito was in full swing (正在全力进行) at the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium. You wouldn’t have guessed that besides players, judges and audiences, a powerful AI platform was watching the match.
Every serve, swing and movement of Mimaito was caught by this AI cloud platform set in Tokyo. At an average speed of 100 Mbps, the data was sent to the technical team of the Zhejiang University Table Tennis Intelligent Big Data Analysis Platform, 2, 442 kilometers away from the Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium, according to The Paper.
The platform has stored the data of more than 8, 000 matches so far. The research team has been working on match simulation (模拟) since 2018. “Using big data and AI, we can correctly simulate and predict how the winning rate will change when players change certain tactics (策略),” Professor Wu Yingcai, the main developer of the platform, told CCTV-2.
The Tokyo Olympic Games have seen not only scientific support in training, but many cutting-edge technologies in athletes’ devices (设备). For example, the Kenya women’s volleyball team’s GPS devices fed data on each player’s strength, heart rate and so on to coaches, who used the information to prevent injury (受伤) and personalize training plans for each individual, South China Morning Post reported.
30. What helped Su Bingtian a lot to make his breakthrough?
A. His scientific training. B. Support from his family.
C. His coach’s encouragement. D. Support from other sprinters.
31. What’s the advantage of match simulation according to Professor Wu Yingcai?
A. Players can study other players’ tactics.
B. Players can know their own weaknesses.
C. It helps players improve their winning rate.
D. It helps judges make the correct judgement.
32. The GPS devices can help coaches ________.
A. quickly find out players’ information
B. give proper treatment for sports injuries
C. make better decisions for future training
D. follow players’ movement during the game
33. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The success of the Tokyo Olympics.
B. The advantages of using AI at the Tokyo Olympics.
C. The ways athletes prepared for the Tokyo Olympics.
D. Technologies that helped athletes at the Tokyo Olympics.
【答案】30. A 31. C 32. C 33. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了帮助东京奥运会运动员的几种技术。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据“With the help of scientific training, he made his breakthrough.”可知，在科学训练的帮助下，他取得了突破。故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Using big data and AI, we can correctly simulate and predict how the winning rate will change when players change certain tactics (策略)”可知，利用大数据和人工智能，我们可以正确地模拟和预测当玩家改变某些战术时，胜率会如何变化。所以吴教授认为比赛模拟的优势是它有助于提高他们的获胜率，故选C。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据“For example, the Kenya women’s volleyball team’s GPS devices fed data on each player’s strength, heart rate and so on to coaches, who used the information to prevent injury (受伤) and personalize training plans for each individual”可知，肯尼亚女子排球队的GPS设备将每个运动员的力量、心率等数据提供给教练，教练使用这些信息来防止受伤，并为每个人制定个性化的训练计划。所以GPS设备可以帮助教练为将来的培训做出更好的决定，故选C。
【33题详解】

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Today, our currency (货币) is a mixture of metal coins and paper money, but it wasn’t always that way. Before metal coins and paper bills existed (存在), people used a lot of unusual things to buy what they needed. In one part of the world, for example, people used the sharks’ teeth for money, while in another place, rare seashells were money.
There are many fantastic facts about the history of money. Bright feathers were the lightest money used by people on a Pacific island. Stones were the heaviest money and some weighed over 500 pounds. Greece used a lot of metal coins which were smaller than apple seeds. They were the smallest money ever used.
No one knows for sure when people started using metal coins for money. Scientists have found coins dating from 600 BC, so we know they have been around for a long time. At first people used the precious metals, such as gold and silver to make coins. In the 1200s, people in China used iron (铁) coins for their currency. These coins weren’t worth very much, so people had to use a lot of them to make their purchases (购买物). Because iron coins were inconvenient, the government started printing paper bills. People took these bills to banks and traded them in for coins. This is the first example we have of paper money.
Today, most countries use a mixture of coins and paper bills for their currency. In some countries, the paper bills are all the same size and color. In many others, the bills come in various sizes and colors. This makes it easier for people to tell the value of their money.
In 2002, twelve European countries started using a completely new currency. It’s called the euro. Many Europeans miss their old currencies, but now it is easier to move money from one country to another.
34. What did people use to buy things before metal coins and paper bills existed?
_________________________________________________________________________
35 What was the lightest money ever used on a Pacific island?
_________________________________________________________________________
36. When did China use iron coins for their currency?

【答案】例文：
Dear Wang Yaping,
I’m Li Hua, a middle school student in Beijing. When I learned from the TV news that on October 16, 2021, you successfully arrived in space in China’s Zhengzhou XIII spacecraft, I couldn’t help feeling a shock in my heart. You are 1,300,000,000 prides of the Chinese, you also became my hero in the heart. I’m writing to know something about your life and work in space for nearly three months. How do you eat, walk and write?
I know that scientific research into space is not an easy task. The pilot not only needs the hard technique, but also needs the self-confidence and courage. What did you see on the airship? I don’t know whether the space that you see is similar to the space that I fantasize! The space is extensive and limitless. You are all the heroes of the motherland. You are the pride of the motherland. You are our lasting model. When I grow up, I also want to be an astronaut.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours faithfully,
Li Hua
