It is important to realise that you ___5___ avoid such situations by communicating more clearly. Before a big game, a quick text to say “I’ll be there” is fine, but nothing beats hearing your teammates cheer for you in person. Unfortunately, a lot of miscommunication happens because people do not listen properly. A recent incident ___6___ (report) in our school booklet.

This feeling is closely linked to how they use social media. A 2025 survey conducted among 1,500 middle school students revealed a clear trend: 78% of them felt anxious or unhappy after seeing posts of their friends having fun together without them. The survey results, presented in a colorful chart, showed that this anxiety is especially high among students who spend more than four hours a day on social platforms. They constantly check their phones for updates, texts, and likes. While social media is a powerful medium for communication, heavy use can lead to a cycle of comparison and envy. Experts suggest that the best way to avoid the embarrassment of feeling left out is to communicate in person more often. “A ‘like’ on a photo is not the same as a pat on the back or a high-five,” says Dr. Anna Lee, a child psychologist. “These real-life gestures help us realise that our value isn't based on online popularity.” She advises teenagers to focus on building strong friendships with a few close people rather than trying to earn hundreds of online followers. It's also important to allow yourself proper breaks from social media. Fixing this problem starts with understanding that what people post online is often a highlight reel, not their full, real life. ( ) 1. What does the survey mentioned in the passage mainly focus on? A. The time teenagers spend on homework. B. The popularity of different social media apps. C. Teenagers' anxiety caused by social media use. D. The ways teenagers communicate with their parents. ( ) 2. According to the chart mentioned, which group of students feels the most anxious? A. Those who use social media for less than an hour a day. B. Those who have over 500 online followers. C. Those who spend over four hours daily on social platforms. D. Those who rarely post pictures of themselves. ( ) 3. The phrase “a highlight reel” in the last paragraph probably means ______. A. a complete and honest diary B. a video of the best moments only C. a boring daily report D. a collection of sad events ( ) 4. Dr. Anna Lee suggests that teenagers should ______. A. try to earn more online followers B. compare themselves with others online C. spend more time on real-life interactions D. check their phones more frequently for texts ( ) 5. Why does the author mention “a pat on the back or a high-five” in paragraph 3? A. To show that online likes are equally valuable. B. To give examples of meaningful in-person gestures. C. To suggest new ways of greeting friends. D. To explain how to use social media properly. ( ) 6. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To introduce a new social media app for teenagers. B. To describe the results of a cultural survey. C. To discuss the negative effects of FOMO and offer solutions. D. To argue that social media is completely harmful to students.

D篇 回答问题 (4题，每题1分，共4分) 阅读下面短文，然后根据短文内容简要回答下列问题。 A new communication system has been developed by a team of engineers in Japan. It is a special pair of glasses that can translate sign language gestures into spoken words in real time. The glasses use a small camera to watch the user's hand movements. Then, an AI system, based on a huge database of gestures, analyses the movements and turns them into text or speech. The team conducted a survey among the hearing-impaired (听力受损的) community to get feedback. The results, shown in a chart, were very positive. 85% of the users said the glasses allowed them to communicate more effectively with people who don't understand sign language. One user, Yuki, said, “I used to avoid talking to strangers because of the embarrassment of not being understood. Now, I can just put on the glasses and start a conversation. It has fixed a big problem in my life.” However, the system is not perfect. Users must learn to make proper gestures, and it doesn't work well in very noisy situations. The engineers are now focusing on improving the AI to recognise faster movements and to filter out background noise. They hope to earn enough funding to start selling the glasses by 2027. 1.

Here are two suggestions. First, use friendly gestures, like smiling or nodding, when others speak. This helps create a relaxed atmosphere. Second, before the group discussion, write down one or two key points you want to share. This will help you focus and avoid getting lost. Remember, your ideas are valuable. I'll always cheer for you. Be brave and give it a try! Yours sincerely, Li Hua 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
