It refers to that the nervous or anxious feeling a person gets when they realize they are not attending a social event either because they weren39。t invited or they just didn39。t feel like going. 16 This belief, in tum, can create anxiety and a sense of inferiority. FOMO bothers most teens, especially if they39。re often online.One way for teens to deal with FOMO is to practice what is known as reframing(重塑)thinking. 17 Here are some tips on how teens can start to reframe their thinking.Track negative thoughts and replace them with reasonable ones. One thing teens can do to deal with FOMO is to track their negative thoughts and feelings in a journal. 18 Then, they can change their thoughts and replace the negative thoughts with something positive.19 Encourage teens to recognize that they have limited time and cannot possibly be everywhere and do everything. So, naturally, there will be social events that they cannot attend. But this does not mean that they39。re necessarily missing out on something.Turning off the technology and do something else. Turning off the technology seems like a natural cure for FOMO. But just switching the phone off does not erase the feelings that FOMO causes. 20 The key is to do something else entirely like reading a book or baking cookies anything that allows them to focus on something other than social media.A. Be realistic about availability.B. There are some negative consequences of FOMO.C. Realize that no one lives a perfect life as described on social media.D.

Teens may still worry about missing out even if they39。re not on social media at all.G. This allows them to observe how often they39。re feeling negative about themselves.16.【答案】E【解析】 上一句介紹了 FOMO 的具體含義,下一句說這種看法反過來又會(huì)產(chǎn)生焦慮和自卑情緒。由此可知,空處應(yīng)該說的是某種看法,且與FOMO有關(guān)。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知,E項(xiàng)”“通常來說,FOMO導(dǎo)致人們認(rèn)為他們社會(huì)地位低下”符合語境?!罢J(rèn)為他們社會(huì)地位低下”是產(chǎn)生焦慮和自卑情緒”的原因。17.【答案】D【解析】 上一句提到青少年應(yīng)對(duì) FOMO 的方法是重塑觀念,接下來應(yīng)該是介紹什么是重塑觀念。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知,D項(xiàng)符合語境,選項(xiàng)中的“It”指代上一句中的”reframing(重塑)thinking。18.【答案】G【解析】 上一句說青少年可以在日記中跟蹤自己的消極想法及感受,下一句說然后他們就可以改變他們的觀念,用積極的事物替代消極觀念,空處應(yīng)該講此種方法的作用,故G項(xiàng)切題?!盩his”指代上一句中的”to track their negative thoughts and feelings in a journal,them指代上一句中的teens。19.【答案】A【解析】 本段提到要鼓勵(lì)青少年認(rèn)識(shí)到他們時(shí)間有限,不能出席一些社交活動(dòng)是很自然的事情,由此可以概括出本段的主旨,即要現(xiàn)實(shí)地看待參加社交活動(dòng)的問題,所以A選項(xiàng)符合語境。選項(xiàng)中的”availability”在這里可以理解為參加社交活動(dòng)的可行性。20.【答案】F【解析】 上一句說關(guān)掉手機(jī)并不能消除 FOMO 導(dǎo)致的情緒,空處應(yīng)該是介紹青少年不接觸社交媒體后的情況,F項(xiàng)”即使青少年根本不在社交媒體上,他們?nèi)匀豢赡軗?dān)心錯(cuò)過”符合語境,同時(shí)為下一句介紹消除FOMO的關(guān)鍵做好鋪墊。第二部分 語言知識(shí)運(yùn)用(共兩節(jié),滿分30分)第一節(jié) 完形填空(共15小題;每小題1分,滿分15分)閱讀下面短文,從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。28yearold Jermaine Scott set up in business as a barber in Madison, Tennessee,
