Fear of public speaking is the single most common phobia (恐怖症). Nearly 75% of people admit to 76 this, so you aren’t alone in your fear. It can range from slight 77 to a nearly paralyzing (瘫痪性的) fear and panic. For many people, this fear is so great that they avoid public speaking situations altogether. However, what if you can’t avoid it? What if your job requires you to speak in front of others from time to time? 78 , what if you are trying to earn a promotion? You certainly don’t want to be 79 due to an inability to speak in public. Here are a few things you can do to manage and reduce your public speaking anxiety.
Practice Relaxation Techniques
When you are facing an uncomfortable situation, your body automatically experiences increased 80 activity such as a fast heartbeat, difficulty breathing, and tension in your muscles. You can relax your body and reduce these 81 with a variety of techniques. Deep breathing can help you calm your body. You should practice relaxation techniques prior to any public speaking.
82 Prepare
The better you know your topic, the less likely you will make a mistake. Oftentimes, the anxiety associated with public speaking comes from fear of 83 . That’s why it is so important to spend plenty of time preparing yourself. 84 yourself as much as possible with the topic so you have a thorough understanding of what you are presenting. Then, practice your speech several times so you are comfortable with the entire 85 . You should practice in front of people and ask for 86 . Not only will this help you become more confident speaking in front of others, but the feedback can help you improve your speaking skills so you become even more confident.
87 Your Worries and How You Can Conquer Them
When you’re afraid of something, you may overestimate how often bad things will happen. A good exercise is to write down your 88 worries. For example, forgetting your material, losing your place, technical difficulties, a question you can’t answer, a bored audience. Once you have written down each worry, note down a(n) 89 solution for each one. Knowing you have a 90 in place should things go wrong will help you feel more secure about your presentation.

五、阅读理解(每篇10分,共 20分)
(一)
Social media has had an immeasurable impact on the world. It has increased interconnectivity and sped up the spread of information, but its biggest impact of all might be the changes it has made to language.
Dozens of terms and phrases have originated on social media. “Selfie” was named word of the year by the Oxford English Dictionary in 2013. Two years later, the “Face with Tears of Joy” emoji became their “word” of the year. There are many more examples of social media slang (俚语) included in the dictionary. Besides, words like “hashtag” and “lol” have become ordinary, all thanks to their wide usage on social media platforms. Other social media words are new combinations of other words. Photobomb, for instance, describes the phenomenon of getting into somebody’s photographs accidentally, which came about due to the success of image-sharing platforms.
Social media has done more than invent new words and combine existing ones. It has completely transformed the meaning of a large portion of our language. The word “friend” is now widely used as a verb to mean adding someone on social media platforms. The word “add” means sending an invitation to connect social media accounts. The number of “likes” is now a measurement of popularity.
So far, we have only discussed social media’s effect on the English language, but one significant variation in language it has brought about involves communication across different languages. Some social media platforms have a built-in translation function that intends to reduce language barriers for users. This deserves praise in theory, and the function has been described as “surprisingly accurate”. But as translation agency Global Voices points out, social media usage across cultures differs greatly, and no built-in algorithm (算法) can translate this.
Another way social media has made progress in breaking down the language barrier is with AI chatbots, which are becoming increasingly popular on social media. Some users have said chatbots could eventually be used to teach languages. They say the best way of learning a language is to try speaking it, and with social media dominating communication, who’s to say speaking to a chatbot is not just as good?
91.What does the underlined word “Photobomb” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Intentionally stealing the scene. B.Casually playing tricks in the photo.
C.Unexpectedly appearing in the photo. D.Actively participating in the photo.
92.What do we know about social media’s translation function?
A.It is only useful for some specific languages.
B.It is not as good as expected due to cultural differences.
C.It is the best way to communicate across different languages.
D.It is completely accurate and has removed all language barriers.
93.What is some people’s attitude towards chatbots when it comes to language learning?
A.Approving. B.Doubtful. C.Objective. D.Critical.
94.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.The Development of the English Language
B.The Role of Technology in Communication
C.The Rise of New Words in the Digital Age
D.The Impact of Social Media on Language Development
【答案】91.C 92.B 93.A 94.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了社交媒体对语言的影响,包括创造新词、改变单词意义、影响不同语言之间的交流,以及人工智能聊天机器人的兴起。
91.词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“describes the phenomenon of getting into somebody’s photographs accidentally, which came about due to the success of image-sharing platforms. (指不小心进入别人照片的现象,这种现象是由于图片分享平台的成功而产生的)”可知,画线词指的是意外出现在他人照片中的现象。故选C项。
92.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Some social media platforms have a built-in translation function that intends to reduce language barriers for users. This deserves praise in theory, and the function has been described as “surprisingly accurate”. But as translation agency Global Voices points out, social media usage across cultures differs greatly, and no built-in algorithm (算法) can translate this. (一些社交媒体平台有一个内置的翻译功能,旨在减少用户的语言障碍。这在理论上值得称赞,该功能被描述为“出乎意料的准确”。但正如翻译机构全球之声指出的那样,不同文化的社交媒体使用差异很大,没有内置的算法可以翻译这一点)”可知,社交媒体的翻译功能理论上值得称赞且被认为很准确,但由于不同文化中社交媒体使用方式差异很大,其内置算法无法翻译这些差异,所以实际上它并不如预期的那么好。故选B项。
93.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Some users have said chatbots could eventually be used to teach languages. They say the best way of learning a language is to try speaking it, and with social media dominating communication, who’s to say speaking to a chatbot is not just as good? (一些用户表示,聊天机器人最终可以用来教授语言。他们说学习一门语言的最好方法是尝试说它,在社交媒体主导交流的情况下,谁说和聊天机器人说话就没有那么好呢)”可知,一些用户认为聊天机器人可以服务于口语交流,从而让人学会一门语言。这表明他们对聊天机器人在语言学习方面的态度是赞许的。故选A项。
94.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Social media has had an immeasurable impact on the world. It has increased interconnectivity and sped up the spread of information, but its biggest impact of all might be the changes it has made to language. (社交媒体对世界产生了不可估量的影响。它增加了互联性,加速了信息的传播,但它最大的影响可能是它对语言的改变)”可知,文章主要围绕社交媒体对语言的影响展开,其中重点讲述了对英语语言的影响,如创造新词汇、改变词汇意义等。A项“英语语言的发展”范围过大,未突出社交媒体的作用;B项“技术在交流中的作用”过于宽泛,没有具体指向社交媒体对语言尤其是英语语言的影响;C项“数字时代新词汇的兴起”只是文章部分内容,不能全面概括主旨;D项“社交媒体对语言发展的影响”准确地涵盖了文章主要讨论的内容,适合作为文章标题。故选D项。
(二)
Social media use has been linked to depression, especially in teenage girls. But a new study argues that the issue may be more complex than experts think.
The research involved interviews with 10,000 teenagers in England. “Our results suggest social media itself doesn’t cause harm, but that frequent use may disturb activities that positively impact mental health such as sleeping and exercising, while increasing exposure of young people to harmful content, particularly cyberbullying (网络欺凌),” study co-author Russell Viner said in a statement.
Bob Patton, a lecturer of the University of Surrey, said this means strategies focusing only on reducing social media use to improve mental health might not help. He said, “Building strategies to increase resilience (适应力) to cyberbullying and promote better sleep and exercise is needed to reduce psychological (心理的) harm.”
The research was conducted by interviewing teenagers once a year. They would report the frequency of their using social media. More than three times daily was considered “very frequent”. The researchers noted that they did not record how much time the participants spent on these websites, which was a limitation of the study. “For boys, the impact on their mental health may result from other reasons,” the authors said.
The researchers found that, in both sexes, very frequent social media use was associated with greater psychological harm. The effect was especially clear among girls: The more often they checked social media, the greater their psychological harm was.
But most impact on psychological harm in girls could be accounted for by lower sleep quality and greater exposure to cyberbullying, with decreased physical activities playing a lesser role. But for boys, those factors explained only 12% of the effects of very frequent social media use on psychological harm.
“It’s an important difference,” said Ann DeSmet, a professor at Ghent University in Belgium. “If healthy lifestyles can be replaced, the positive effects of social media use, such as encouraging social interactions, can be more supported.”
95.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A.The risk of cyberbullying. B.The report of the statement.
C.The functions of social media. D.The findings of the research.
96.What did Bob Patton mainly tell us?
A.The proper way to improve mental health.
B.The need to fight against mental harm.
C.The benefit of limiting social media use.
D.The impact of social media use on people.
97.What can we know about the research?
A.It was the first in its class. B.It needed more attention.
C.It had shortcomings. D.It was difficult to carry out.
98.Which of the following may be the best title for the text?
A.The research on teenage girls
B.Social media use influences girls especially
C.Social interactions are encouraged
D.The harm of using social media
【答案】95.D 96.A 97.C 98.B
【导语】本文是说明文,主要讲的是研究表明,频繁地使用社交媒体会给青少年造成心理危害,尤其对女孩的危害更加明显。
95.主旨大意题。根据第二段“The research involved interviews with 10,000 teenagers in England. “Our results suggest social media itself doesn’t cause harm, but that frequent use may disturb activities that positively impact mental health such as sleeping and exercising, while increasing exposure of young people to harmful content, particularly cyberbullying (网络欺凌),” study co-author Russell Viner said in a statement.(这项研究采访了英国的1万名青少年。“我们的研究结果表明,社交媒体本身并不会造成伤害,但频繁使用社交媒体可能会干扰睡眠和锻炼等对心理健康有积极影响的活动,同时增加年轻人接触有害内容的机会,尤其是网络欺凌,”研究报告的合著者Russell Viner在一份声明中说。)”可知,第二段主要介绍了这个研究的结果。故选D。
96.细节理解题。根据第三段“He said, “Building strategies to increase resilience (适应力) to cyberbullying and promote better sleep and exercise is needed to reduce psychological (心理的) harm.”(他说:“需要制定策略来增强对网络欺凌的适应能力,促进更好的睡眠和锻炼,以减少心理伤害。”)”可知,Bob Patton主要告诉了我们改善心理健康的正确方法。故选A。
97.推理判断题。根据第四段中“The researchers noted that they did not record how much time the participants spent on these websites, which was a limitation of the study.(研究人员指出,他们没有记录参与者在这些网站上花了多少时间,这是研究的一个局限性。)”可知,这个研究的局限在于它没有监测参与者上网的时间,故可推知这个研究是有不足之处的。故选C。
98.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Social media use has been linked to depression, especially in teenage girls. But a new study argues that the issue may be more complex than experts think.(社交媒体的使用与抑郁症有关,尤其是在十几岁的女孩中。但一项新的研究认为,这个问题可能比专家们想象的要复杂得多。)”可知,文章主要介绍了频繁地使用社交媒体尤其会给女孩造成心理危害,因此最好的题目是B选项“Social media use influences girls especially(社交媒体的使用对女孩的影响尤其大)”。故选B。

If someone said they’d pay you 1,800 dollars to stay off social media for six years, would you do it? Could you? Sivert Klefsaas did just that. “It was 61 ” Sivert told CNN, “I thought, ‘Ah, what’s 6 more years?’”
In 2016, Lorna Klefsaas 62 her 12-year-old son Sivert to stay off social media until he was 18. If he completed the challenge, she’d award him the 63 on his eighteenth birthday. On February 19, 2022, Sivert 64 his prize.
Lorna was inspired by a “16 for 16” 65 , where a mother gave her daughter $1,600 when she 66 16 for keeping off social media. She decided to up the ante (赌注) to two 67 years and 200 dollars more.
For Sivert it wasn’t too difficult to 68 social media, and he didn’t think about it much during the six years. As a 12-year-old, Sivert wasn’t using social media much 69 . The only app he had prior to the bet was Snapchat — which he 70 a day after trying it out. There was never a time when Sivert was about to break. As it went on, it was more of a(n) 71 thing. He also had his friends to keep him 72 on the latest information or trends so as to avoid all the unnecessary drama that was on there.
Lorna never had to check for any 73 downloaded apps since he’s so competitive and it was definitely more for proving a point. It also meant he had more time to focus on his 74 and sports instead.

五、阅读理解(每篇10分,共 20分)
(一)
Social media has had an immeasurable impact on the world. It has increased interconnectivity and sped up the spread of information, but its biggest impact of all might be the changes it has made to language.
Dozens of terms and phrases have originated on social media. “Selfie” was named word of the year by the Oxford English Dictionary in 2013. Two years later, the “Face with Tears of Joy” emoji became their “word” of the year. There are many more examples of social media slang (俚语) included in the dictionary. Besides, words like “hashtag” and “lol” have become ordinary, all thanks to their wide usage on social media platforms. Other social media words are new combinations of other words. Photobomb, for instance, describes the phenomenon of getting into somebody’s photographs accidentally, which came about due to the success of image-sharing platforms.
Social media has done more than invent new words and combine existing ones. It has completely transformed the meaning of a large portion of our language. The word “friend” is now widely used as a verb to mean adding someone on social media platforms. The word “add” means sending an invitation to connect social media accounts. The number of “likes” is now a measurement of popularity.
So far, we have only discussed social media’s effect on the English language, but one significant variation in language it has brought about involves communication across different languages. Some social media platforms have a built-in translation function that intends to reduce language barriers for users. This deserves praise in theory, and the function has been described as “surprisingly accurate”. But as translation agency Global Voices points out, social media usage across cultures differs greatly, and no built-in algorithm (算法) can translate this.
Another way social media has made progress in breaking down the language barrier is with AI chatbots, which are becoming increasingly popular on social media. Some users have said chatbots could eventually be used to teach languages. They say the best way of learning a language is to try speaking it, and with social media dominating communication, who’s to say speaking to a chatbot is not just as good?
91.What does the underlined word “Photobomb” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Intentionally stealing the scene. B.Casually playing tricks in the photo.
C.Unexpectedly appearing in the photo. D.Actively participating in the photo.
92.What do we know about social media’s translation function?
A.It is only useful for some specific languages.
B.It is not as good as expected due to cultural differences.
C.It is the best way to communicate across different languages.
D.It is completely accurate and has removed all language barriers.
93.What is some people’s attitude towards chatbots when it comes to language learning?
A.Approving. B.Doubtful. C.Objective. D.Critical.
94.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.The Development of the English Language
B.The Role of Technology in Communication

Social media use has been linked to depression, especially in teenage girls. But a new study argues that the issue may be more complex than experts think.
The research involved interviews with 10,000 teenagers in England. “Our results suggest social media itself doesn’t cause harm, but that frequent use may disturb activities that positively impact mental health such as sleeping and exercising, while increasing exposure of young people to harmful content, particularly cyberbullying (网络欺凌),” study co-author Russell Viner said in a statement.
Bob Patton, a lecturer of the University of Surrey, said this means strategies focusing only on reducing social media use to improve mental health might not help. He said, “Building strategies to increase resilience (适应力) to cyberbullying and promote better sleep and exercise is needed to reduce psychological (心理的) harm.”
The research was conducted by interviewing teenagers once a year. They would report the frequency of their using social media. More than three times daily was considered “very frequent”. The researchers noted that they did not record how much time the participants spent on these websites, which was a limitation of the study. “For boys, the impact on their mental health may result from other reasons,” the authors said.
The researchers found that, in both sexes, very frequent social media use was associated with greater psychological harm. The effect was especially clear among girls: The more often they checked social media, the greater their psychological harm was.
But most impact on psychological harm in girls could be accounted for by lower sleep quality and greater exposure to cyberbullying, with decreased physical activities playing a lesser role. But for boys, those factors explained only 12% of the effects of very frequent social media use on psychological harm.
“It’s an important difference,” said Ann DeSmet, a professor at Ghent University in Belgium. “If healthy lifestyles can be replaced, the positive effects of social media use, such as encouraging social interactions, can be more supported.”
95.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A.The risk of cyberbullying. B.The report of the statement.
C.The functions of social media. D.The findings of the research.
96.What did Bob Patton mainly tell us?
A.The proper way to improve mental health.
B.The need to fight against mental harm.
C.The benefit of limiting social media use.
D.The impact of social media use on people.
97.What can we know about the research?
A.It was the first in its class. B.It needed more attention.
C.It had shortcomings. D.It was difficult to carry out.
98.Which of the following may be the best title for the text?
A.The research on teenage girls
B.Social media use influences girls especially
C.Social interactions are encouraged
D.The harm of using social media
