In the digital age, we rely on technology such as social media in trying to build interesting and varied lives. Social networking sites like Facebook are designed and promoted to make us believe enthusiastically that they are able to open up new experiences for us. There are constant notifications (通知) and updates, attracting us to check-in to find out what is new.
But if we do not use the technology wisely, we can end up becoming overly attached and trapped in a cycle of social media FOMO, a sign of deeper unhappiness. FOMO, or fear of missing out, is a fear that exciting or interesting events are happening somewhere else and that we are not able to join.
People who experience high levels of FOMO have been found to be more likely to give in to desires to write and check text messages while driving, as well as to use Facebook more often directly after waking, while going to sleep and during meals.
When it comes to lasting happiness, it is best not to give in to FOMO, but rather to deal with the cycle of desires that fuel it. Hard as it is, we are better off working toward facing the fearful reality that we cannot experience everything we might like than to get caught in a cycle of checking behaviors that only cause anxiety.
If we have become used to using social media as part of our attempts at living interesting lives, we must admit that it is not easy to change our approach. But change is almost always worthwhile in the long run.
The fact that FOMO is so common in our digital age is a sign that there is something wrong with the way we are pursuing happiness and that we are not as happy as we might think we are. It should warn us that, in our eagerness to use digital technology to try to make ourselves happier, we may unintentionally (无意之中) be bringing on exactly the opposite result.
4. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The digital age has arrived.
B. Sites give netizens useful experiences.
C. People find it helpful to apply modern technology.
D. Social media are designed to attract public attention.
5. Which of the following could be regarded as social media FOMO
A. Failing to use Facebook.
B. Answering a call during shopping.
C. Checking Facebook while driving.
D. Reading text messages on reaching offices.
6. What can be learned from the last paragraph
A. Everybody has experienced FOMO.
B. Digital technology may make us unhappier.
C. Pursuing happiness is a sign of the digital age.
D. People may unintentionally get addicted to technology.
C
Buildings with windows filled with water could save energy greatly, according to researchers backing the new technology.
Traditional glass windows increase the heat and temperature in the room in summers, and let the heat inside escape in winters, resulting in more electricity consumed for air-conditioners and more carbon emissions (排放). Now, researchers at Loughborough University (UK) have created a water-filled window that can overcome these problems.
The “water-filled glass” (WFG) system, designed by Dr. Matyas Gutai, involves a sheet of water being trapped between a panel (嵌板) of glass, and the water is practically invisible. The windows are connected to an indoor storage tank (箱) using pipes hidden in the walls, allowing water to flow easily between the windows and the tank.
This system allows the house to cool and reheat themselves automatically. When sunlight streams through the glass, the windows keep the buildings cool as the water takes in external and internal heat. This warm water then flows back to the tank. And when the outdoor temperature drops, the stored warm water is brought back to the walls to reheat the building using a monitoring system similar to central heating. The heated water can also be used for domestic (家用的) purposes. Although some electricity is required to pump the water back and forth, it uses much less energy than traditional air-conditioners or heaters.
Dr. Gutai claimed that WFG can save energy from 47% to 72% compared to when using traditional windows. Once launched into the market, the windows will surely make a real splash, appealing to a large crowd of environmentalists and contributing to reducing our carbon footprint. Currently, the inventor team is testing the windows in two areas with different weather conditions. The research reveals that WFG systems perform well in any inhabited climate—keeping buildings in hot climates cool and buildings in cool settings warm—without requiring an additional energy supply.
7. What’s the weakness of traditional glass windows
A. They are easy to break into. B. They release carbon dioxide.
C. They fail to trap the heat. D. They lead to more energy consumption.
8. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The structure of the WFG system.
B. The working process of the WFG system.
C. The advantages of water-filled windows.
D. The appearance of water-filled windows.
9. What’s the characteristic of the WFG system
A. It is operated by man.
B. It needs no electricity at all.
C It recycles the water in many ways.
D. It reheats the house via central heating.
10. What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Make a big fortune. B. Draw lots of attention.
C. Form a huge waterfall. D. Take immediate effect.
第二节 语句排序(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)
11. 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序，构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. The television, meanwhile, is a window on the world, giving us quick and easy access to other cultures and lifestyles.
B. Technology is largely responsible for bringing people together. Channels of communication, such as the mobile phone and the Internet, have made it possible to speak instantly with someone on the other side of the planet, enabling us to form close connections with people of completely different cultures.
C. Cultural exchange helps us to be more inclusive and to overcome culture shock. But inclusiveness doesn’t mean that our cultures will combine with one another.
D. Nowadays, people all over the world are becoming more and more connected, as if the world were getting smaller — as if we were living in a “global village” .
E. Rather, it’s about countries and people making a joint effort to come together to create a more harmonious and understanding world, so that we can all enjoy the mutual benefits.

You might see loneliness as someone old sits alone, staring into the distance or out of a window. However, such images are misleading. ____12____ They are typically surrounded by other people, at school or at work.
Loneliness is a negative feeling about a difference among the friends. ____13____ Although loneliness is often a difficult experience, it can help us to reconnect and to rethink our relationships so that we can seek out the ones that mean the most to us.
____14____ In youth, our friendships are increasingly important in providing us with emotional support. Research indicates that young people have higher demands of their friendships than adults do. They show a preference for larger friend groups, more companionship and higher frequency of contact with friends.
Another reason is our developing sense of self-discovering who we are. ____15____ It can be challenging when your friends are going through the same process, but might not follow the same path as you. Young people often report feeling lonely at school, while home is a comfortable space. But there are difficulties sometimes at home such as arguments or tension with family members and the departure of supportive family members. ____16____
Even if you find yourself feeling lonely and it seems like nothing is helping, do not give up hope. Start with what you can do on your own and move on to ways to connect with others.
A. That often means changes to values or beliefs.
B. These can make the feeling of loneliness worse.
C. There are certain features of youth that tend to cause loneliness.
D. Loneliness serves the function of keeping us safe in our social world.

She had split up with her husband the week before, was living in a flat ____25____, and since she’d found it too much to deal with, she’d taken it out on _____26_____ people.
That taught me a valuable _____27_____ and I pass it on to the people who _____28_____ in the market. Don’t take it _____29_____. If a customer is rude or difficult, just think “Maybe she’s had a row with her husband. Maybe her child’s not well.” Always water it down and don’t let your ego (自我) get _____30_____.

Loneliness is a negative feeling about a difference among the friends. ____13____ Although loneliness is often a difficult experience, it can help us to reconnect and to rethink our relationships so that we can seek out the ones that mean the most to us.
____14____ In youth, our friendships are increasingly important in providing us with emotional support. Research indicates that young people have higher demands of their friendships than adults do. They show a preference for larger friend groups, more companionship and higher frequency of contact with friends.
Another reason is our developing sense of self-discovering who we are. ____15____ It can be challenging when your friends are going through the same process, but might not follow the same path as you. Young people often report feeling lonely at school, while home is a comfortable space. But there are difficulties sometimes at home such as arguments or tension with family members and the departure of supportive family members. ____16____
Even if you find yourself feeling lonely and it seems like nothing is helping, do not give up hope. Start with what you can do on your own and move on to ways to connect with others.
A. That often means changes to values or beliefs.
B. These can make the feeling of loneliness worse.
C. There are certain features of youth that tend to cause loneliness.
D. Loneliness serves the function of keeping us safe in our social world.
E. This means we might feel lonely in the company of others if we don’t fit in.
F. It is most likely that you have not actually found the strategy that works for you.
G. Researchers have found those experiencing loneliness are mostly young people.

In the digital age, we rely on technology such as social media in trying to build interesting and varied lives. Social networking sites like Facebook are designed and promoted to make us believe enthusiastically that they are able to open up new experiences for us. There are constant notifications (通知) and updates, attracting us to check-in to find out what is new.
But if we do not use the technology wisely, we can end up becoming overly attached and trapped in a cycle of social media FOMO, a sign of deeper unhappiness. FOMO, or fear of missing out, is a fear that exciting or interesting events are happening somewhere else and that we are not able to join.
People who experience high levels of FOMO have been found to be more likely to give in to desires to write and check text messages while driving, as well as to use Facebook more often directly after waking, while going to sleep and during meals.
When it comes to lasting happiness, it is best not to give in to FOMO, but rather to deal with the cycle of desires that fuel it. Hard as it is, we are better off working toward facing the fearful reality that we cannot experience everything we might like than to get caught in a cycle of checking behaviors that only cause anxiety.
If we have become used to using social media as part of our attempts at living interesting lives, we must admit that it is not easy to change our approach. But change is almost always worthwhile in the long run.
The fact that FOMO is so common in our digital age is a sign that there is something wrong with the way we are pursuing happiness and that we are not as happy as we might think we are. It should warn us that, in our eagerness to use digital technology to try to make ourselves happier, we may unintentionally (无意之中) be bringing on exactly the opposite result.
4. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The digital age has arrived.
B. Sites give netizens useful experiences.
C. People find it helpful to apply modern technology.
D. Social media are designed to attract public attention.
5. Which of the following could be regarded as social media FOMO
A. Failing to use Facebook.
B. Answering a call during shopping.
C. Checking Facebook while driving.
D. Reading text messages on reaching offices.
6. What can be learned from the last paragraph
A. Everybody has experienced FOMO.
B. Digital technology may make us unhappier.
C. Pursuing happiness is a sign of the digital age.
D. People may unintentionally get addicted to technology.
C
Buildings with windows filled with water could save energy greatly, according to researchers backing the new technology.
Traditional glass windows increase the heat and temperature in the room in summers, and let the heat inside escape in winters, resulting in more electricity consumed for air-conditioners and more carbon emissions (排放). Now, researchers at Loughborough University (UK) have created a water-filled window that can overcome these problems.
The “water-filled glass” (WFG) system, designed by Dr. Matyas Gutai, involves a sheet of water being trapped between a panel (嵌板) of glass, and the water is practically invisible. The windows are connected to an indoor storage tank (箱) using pipes hidden in the walls, allowing water to flow easily between the windows and the tank.
This system allows the house to cool and reheat themselves automatically. When sunlight streams through the glass, the windows keep the buildings cool as the water takes in external and internal heat. This warm water then flows back to the tank. And when the outdoor temperature drops, the stored warm water is brought back to the walls to reheat the building using a monitoring system similar to central heating. The heated water can also be used for domestic (家用的) purposes. Although some electricity is required to pump the water back and forth, it uses much less energy than traditional air-conditioners or heaters.
Dr. Gutai claimed that WFG can save energy from 47% to 72% compared to when using traditional windows. Once launched into the market, the windows will surely make a real splash, appealing to a large crowd of environmentalists and contributing to reducing our carbon footprint. Currently, the inventor team is testing the windows in two areas with different weather conditions. The research reveals that WFG systems perform well in any inhabited climate—keeping buildings in hot climates cool and buildings in cool settings warm—without requiring an additional energy supply.
7. What’s the weakness of traditional glass windows
A. They are easy to break into. B. They release carbon dioxide.
C. They fail to trap the heat. D. They lead to more energy consumption.
8. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The structure of the WFG system.
B. The working process of the WFG system.
C. The advantages of water-filled windows.
D. The appearance of water-filled windows.
9. What’s the characteristic of the WFG system
A. It is operated by man.
B. It needs no electricity at all.
C It recycles the water in many ways.
D. It reheats the house via central heating.
10. What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Make a big fortune. B. Draw lots of attention.
C. Form a huge waterfall. D. Take immediate effect.
第二节 语句排序(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)

A. The television, meanwhile, is a window on the world, giving us quick and easy access to other cultures and lifestyles.
B. Technology is largely responsible for bringing people together. Channels of communication, such as the mobile phone and the Internet, have made it possible to speak instantly with someone on the other side of the planet, enabling us to form close connections with people of completely different cultures.
C. Cultural exchange helps us to be more inclusive and to overcome culture shock. But inclusiveness doesn’t mean that our cultures will combine with one another.
D. Nowadays, people all over the world are becoming more and more connected, as if the world were getting smaller — as if we were living in a “global village” .
E. Rather, it’s about countries and people making a joint effort to come together to create a more harmonious and understanding world, so that we can all enjoy the mutual benefits.

In the digital age, we rely on technology such as social media in trying to build interesting and varied lives. Social networking sites like Facebook are designed and promoted to make us believe enthusiastically that they are able to open up new experiences for us. There are constant notifications (通知) and updates, attracting us to check-in to find out what is new.
But if we do not use the technology wisely, we can end up becoming overly attached and trapped in a cycle of social media FOMO, a sign of deeper unhappiness. FOMO, or fear of missing out, is a fear that exciting or interesting events are happening somewhere else and that we are not able to join.
People who experience high levels of FOMO have been found to be more likely to give in to desires to write and check text messages while driving, as well as to use Facebook more often directly after waking, while going to sleep and during meals.
When it comes to lasting happiness, it is best not to give in to FOMO, but rather to deal with the cycle of desires that fuel it. Hard as it is, we are better off working toward facing the fearful reality that we cannot experience everything we might like than to get caught in a cycle of checking behaviors that only cause anxiety.
If we have become used to using social media as part of our attempts at living interesting lives, we must admit that it is not easy to change our approach. But change is almost always worthwhile in the long run.
The fact that FOMO is so common in our digital age is a sign that there is something wrong with the way we are pursuing happiness and that we are not as happy as we might think we are. It should warn us that, in our eagerness to use digital technology to try to make ourselves happier, we may unintentionally (无意之中) be bringing on exactly the opposite result.
4. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The digital age has arrived.
B. Sites give netizens useful experiences.
C. People find it helpful to apply modern technology.
D. Social media are designed to attract public attention.
5. Which of the following could be regarded as social media FOMO
A. Failing to use Facebook.
B. Answering a call during shopping.
C. Checking Facebook while driving.
D. Reading text messages on reaching offices.
6. What can be learned from the last paragraph
A. Everybody has experienced FOMO.
B. Digital technology may make us unhappier.
C. Pursuing happiness is a sign of the digital age.
D. People may unintentionally get addicted to technology.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B
C
Buildings with windows filled with water could save energy greatly, according to researchers backing the new technology.
Traditional glass windows increase the heat and temperature in the room in summers, and let the heat inside escape in winters, resulting in more electricity consumed for air-conditioners and more carbon emissions (排放). Now, researchers at Loughborough University (UK) have created a water-filled window that can overcome these problems.
The “water-filled glass” (WFG) system, designed by Dr. Matyas Gutai, involves a sheet of water being trapped between a panel (嵌板) of glass, and the water is practically invisible. The windows are connected to an indoor storage tank (箱) using pipes hidden in the walls, allowing water to flow easily between the windows and the tank.
This system allows the house to cool and reheat themselves automatically. When sunlight streams through the glass, the windows keep the buildings cool as the water takes in external and internal heat. This warm water then flows back to the tank. And when the outdoor temperature drops, the stored warm water is brought back to the walls to reheat the building using a monitoring system similar to central heating. The heated water can also be used for domestic (家用的) purposes. Although some electricity is required to pump the water back and forth, it uses much less energy than traditional air-conditioners or heaters.
Dr. Gutai claimed that WFG can save energy from 47% to 72% compared to when using traditional windows. Once launched into the market, the windows will surely make a real splash, appealing to a large crowd of environmentalists and contributing to reducing our carbon footprint. Currently, the inventor team is testing the windows in two areas with different weather conditions. The research reveals that WFG systems perform well in any inhabited climate—keeping buildings in hot climates cool and buildings in cool settings warm—without requiring an additional energy supply.
7. What’s the weakness of traditional glass windows
A. They are easy to break into. B. They release carbon dioxide.
C They fail to trap the heat. D. They lead to more energy consumption.
8 What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The structure of the WFG system.
B. The working process of the WFG system.
C. The advantages of water-filled windows.
D. The appearance of water-filled windows.
9. What’s the characteristic of the WFG system
A. It is operated by man.
B. It needs no electricity at all.
C. It recycles the water in many ways.
D. It reheats the house via central heating.
10. What does the underlined phrase in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Make a big fortune. B. Draw lots of attention.
C. Form a huge waterfall. D. Take immediate effect.
【答案】7. D 8. A 9. C 10. B

A. The television, meanwhile, is a window on the world, giving us quick and easy access to other cultures and lifestyles.
B. Technology is largely responsible for bringing people together. Channels of communication, such as the mobile phone and the Internet, have made it possible to speak instantly with someone on the other side of the planet, enabling us to form close connections with people of completely different cultures.
C. Cultural exchange helps us to be more inclusive and to overcome culture shock. But inclusiveness doesn’t mean that our cultures will combine with one another.
D. Nowadays, people all over the world are becoming more and more connected, as if the world were getting smaller — as if we were living in a “global village” .

But there are difficulties sometimes at home such as arguments or tension with family members and the departure of supportive family members. ____16____

B. These can make the feeling of loneliness worse.
C. There are certain features of youth that tend to cause loneliness.
D. Loneliness serves the function of keeping us safe in our social world.
