21、My fourth-grader came home from school crying recently, after discovering that she hadn’t been invited to a birthday party. I wanted to join in her pity party.

I, too, had just seen pictures of a gathering on social media. I was asleep by 9:00 that night, unaware of all the fun things that were happening.

I always assumed that FOMO (fear of missing out) was a feeling reserved for kids and teens. But FOMO affects every age group. In fact, there’s a scientific explanation for FOMO: Our survival as a species is based on being included in group activities. In order to survive, we must share resources and work as a team.

In a 2018 study published in Motivation and Emotion, researchers found that FOMO is felt by everyone, regardless of their personality. And while FOMO was originally based on survival, today it is associated with sleep problems, fatigue (疲劳) and stress.

“When glancing through social media, we see the best versions of people’s lives and we think we should be doing something to feel more fulfilled and satisfied, instead of focusing on activities that actually give us less joy,” said Meha Agrawal, founder and CEO of Silk & Sonder.

Cutting back on your social media time would help limit your FOMO feelings. But you can also decide to change your thinking. “You always get to choose your thoughts,” said Vikki Louise, an anxiety coach. “The concept of missing out is subjective: You always decide if you are not included.”

Additionally, connecting with the reasons you chose not to participate and owning your choice can go a long way, said Adi Jaffe, mental health expert and lecturer at UCLA. This is true even if you didn’t actually make the choice to be excluded.

【1】What does the underlined sentence imply in the first paragraph?

A．The author also felt sad about being left out.

B．The author and her daughter hated going to parties.

C．The author wanted to throw a party for her daughter.

D．The author didn’t understand her daughter’s sadness.

【2】What do we know about FOMO according to the 2018 study?

A．It can affect our chances of survival.

B．It easily hurts mentally weak people.

C．It is connected with sleep problems.

D．It is shared only among young people.

【3】What did Vikki Louise suggest us doing with FOMO?

A．Setting a limit to our social media time.

B．Competing with others to reduce FOMO.

C．Digging into the benefits of missing out.

D．Deciding for ourselves whether we miss out.

【4】Where can you most probably read this passage?

A．In a travel guidebook.

B．In a family magazine.

C．In a researcher’s lab record.

D．In a health journal.

22、   Modern agriculture and its beauty to feed billions of people may be one of humanity’s greatest achievements. However, it comes with hidden costs. For example, have you ever considered how much water is needed to provide you with a steak or a salad? It may surprise you.

In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Australia’s national science organization, took a close look at the diets of 9,341 adult Australians-specifically, their “water-scarcity footprints (水消耗足迹)”.

It turns out that a sweet tooth not only adds to our waistlines but also stresses our water resources.

The water-scarcity footprint is a widely recognized measurement of water consumption. First, it counts the liters of water you used. Then, it looks at the place where the water was used. Using a liter of water in the desert is not the same as using a liter of water in a tropical rainforest. The more scarce water is in your area, the larger your water-scarcity footprint.

The scientists found that the average Australian’s diet had a water-scarcity footprint of 362 liters per day. Snacks and beverages-cookies, cakes, sodas and alcohol-accounted for 25 percent of the water-scarcity footprint. The research also included a glass of wine (41 liters), a single serving of potato chips (23 liters), and a small bar of milk chocolate (21 liters).

Not surprisingly, cutting out snacks would be the top priority if you wanted to lower your own water-scarcity.

Earth’s surface is 70 percent water, but only 2.5 percent of that can be used for drinking or farming. While humanity faces an uphill battle to feed its growing population, climate change is causing droughts and extreme weather in agricultural centers like California and eastern Australia.

Cities aren’t safe, either. In 2018, Cape Town, South Africa, nearly ran out of water due to drought. Its freshwater reservoir (水库) stayed at just about 13.5 percent of full capacity.

By 2030, a world of about 8.6 billion people will need 35 percent more water, 40 percent more energy, and 50 percent more food, according to the United States National Intelligence Council.

So, we need to watch what we eat, not just for our personal health but for the health of our societies.

【1】What did the recent study from CSIRO find?

A.There are many hidden places like lacking water.

B.The foods we consume could cause our water-scarcity footprints to be bigger.

C.Climate change is the leading reason for larger water-scarcity footprints.

D.Eating sweets leads to a smaller water-scarcity footprint.

【2】What do we know about water-scarcity footprints?

A.They show how much a person affects their local water supply.

B.They change with a country’s population.

C.They count the amount of water a family wastes.

D.They are mainly used to measure how scarce water is in the desert.

【3】What can we infer from the last four paragraphs?

A.South Africa is the area with the worst water shortages.

B.We are facing a greater shortage of water than of food.

C.Our eating habits could make a difference to the problem of water shortage.

D.Water shortage may bring about many social problems.

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

A.How to get rid of snacks

B.Why we should reduce water waste

C.The more water is, the bigger the water-scarcity footprints are

D.Water waste starts with snacks

23、Parents usually go to malls to find new school supplies for their children. One of the most important things to get during this time is the backpack. Most students choose to bring a backpack because it allows them to have both hands free. This makes the bag less likely to hinder (妨碍)other activities that the person carrying it may be doing at the same time. Here are the ways parents can choose the perfect backpack for school.

How many books will children be carrying to school? How many notebooks should be inside the bag? Parents should know these details before buying a bag for their children. Each situation requires a different bag so it pays to ask children about the expected load.

Do children need special storage for the bag? If they will be carrying a laptop computer inside the new backpack, make sure that parents get a model that’s designed specifically for laptop use. This will protect the computer from bumps and falls that might damage the device if it had less protection.

Are children going to use the bag for a long time? If they want to use a bag for a long time，parents will be better off investing in a good brand that is known for quality. Parents may have to pay extra cash to get the  top of the line and the best backpack in the market.

Count the pockets. Backpacks usually come with a lot of pockets, and generally, the more pockets, the better. This allows children to organize their things, like pens and pencils inside small pockets.

Picking the perfect school backpack is all about getting the sweet compromise (折中）between form, function and price. Remember to choose the best fit for children’s needs.

【1】What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?

A. Parents should find out how many books their children have.

B. Parents must ask teachers for help before buying a backpack.

C. Parents should know the weight of things that will go inside the backpack.

D. Parents must ask their children’s requirements when buying a backpack.

【2】The underlined word “bumps” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to“   ”.

A. knocks B. jumps   C. stands D. beats

【3】Which of the following can we know from the text?

A. Picking a backpack is very easy to do.

B. It’s better for children to have a backpack that has more pockets.

C. The backpacks that have a good brand are more popular with children.

D. Parents always feel worried when buying a backpack for their children.

24、The Surprising Habits that Are Stopping You from Losing Weight

You’ve cut out snacks and started exercising, but why can’t you shift those stubborn pounds? Read on to discover the surprising reasons you struggle to stay slim and simple, science-backed solutions.

You’re eating too late.

Do you regularly eat dinner after 8:00 pm or snack through the evening? A study found that late-night eating made people hungrier the following day. 【1】Avoid eating between 8:00 pm and 8:00 am.

You’re not at the gym frequently enough.

Working out actively but not seeing results? Consider how active you are outside the gym.【2】 There are 168 hours in a week, so if you do one-hour workouts three times a week in the gym, you’re only exercising for 2% of the week. Instead, be active throughout your day has accumulative effect on fat loss.

You’re eating too fast.

The faster you eat, the more rapidly sugar enters your bloodstream. People who eat faster tend to have a higher weight and energy intake than slow-eaters. I’m always telling my children not to wolf food, but listen to their hunger signals. 【3】.

You drop off with the TV on.

【4】 Sleeping with the TV on isn’t restful. Stage 1 sleep is very light so it can be easily disturbed by TV sound. Long-term lack of sleep impacts your appetite, increases food intake and decreases energy consumption. Therefore, in the hour before bed, avoid screens and all bright light.

【5】

“Healthy” plant-based food like fake meats and non-dairy desserts may actually ruin your weight-loss efforts, warn nutrition scientists. Despite their healthful claims, they’re actually high in energy, sugar and saturated fats. The processing methods for such food often break down ingredients5 cell structures? More energy can be stored in the body. So, switch to food like beans, nuts and seeds.

A．You’ve gone plant-based.

B．It’s good advice for everyone.

C．To fix it, cut out evening snacks.

D．Celebrate a special day or event occasionally.

E．Everything feels right, but you know something is wrong.

F．This bedtime habit can make it harder to fall asleep at night.
