24、

Have you ever heard of FOGO? It is short for “fear of going out.” This buzzword(流行语) is often used to describe social anxiety(焦虑), a problem that some young people are facing.

Sometimes, FOGO can cause us trouble. Recently something happened to a friend of mine. Last Friday, my friend Amy took the subway to go home. The subway was very crowded. When she tried to exit at her stop, my friend found that the door was blocked by other passengers. She was too shy to say “Excuse me.” Instead, she kept waiting until the people in front of her had all gotten off. It ended up taking her two more hours than it usually does to get home. It usually takes her about 40 minutes.

Some people, like my friend, believe that silence is golden. Many times they believe that, by saying nothing, they can avoid making mistakes and therefore they won’t lose face or face any criticism(指责). However, some people around them may see it as a sign of arrogance(傲慢). Anyway, we must say “no” to FOGO.

It isn’t easy to say “no” to FOGO though. We need practice. First, it can make a big difference to tell yourself that you can do it. Also, always pay more attention to what you are doing than what others might say about you. Meanwhile, you need to be brave enough to ask others for help when you do need help.

Throughout our journey in life, we will meet many different people. Don’t be afraid to express yourself. Having the courage to get socialized with people helps you make friends. Your life will be different if you do not have FOGO.

【1】What is FOGO often used to describe?

A．A journey.

B．A problem.

C．A person.

【2】How long did it take Amy to get home last Friday?

A．About 40 minutes.

B．About 120 minutes.

C．About 160 minutes.

【3】What may happen to people who believe silence is golden?

A．They may talk a lot.

B．They may lose faces.

C．They may keep quiet.

【4】Which is good for practicing saying “no” to FOGO?

A．Paying much attention to what others might say.

B．Paying more attention to what you are doing.

C．Telling yourself that you can’t do it.

【5】What can be the best title of the text?

A．The Buzzword FOGO

B．Say No to FOGO

C．FOGO Story

26、Li Meixi, 12, feels anxious（焦虑的）about her looks—not her face, but her outfit（穿搭）. When she sees stylish people on the street, she tries not to run into them. “I am afraid that they think I am out of style. Ashamed（羞愧的）of my ordinary outfit, I feel like I don’t even deserve to walk on the same street with them,” said Li, from Chengdu, Sichuan.

What Li is experiencing is fashion anxiety. It worries many people today. They are anxious about their outfits, afraid of being seen out of style. A vlogger shared a video about her fashion anxiety on Sina Weibo and it quickly became a hot topic.

A big reason for fashion anxiety is fashion bullying（欺凌）, experts said. As fashion magazines, advertisements and icons sport the “latest and greatest” fashion, there’s a lot of pressure on people, especially teenagers, to follow them, no matter how expensive it might be. “The need to belong in groups is very important to young learners and exclusion is something they see as the end of the world.” said Andy Cranham, a teacher at City of Bristol College, UK.

Another reason some people might have fashion anxiety is that they don’t have a sense of self—identity, said The Paper. It looks like we feel anxious about our outfits, but actually we are not confident enough. So we care about how fashionable people look at us. We easily doubt ourselves. The reality is that those people usually don’t notice us at all.

Fashion trends come and go, always changing. Instead of rushing to follow a trend, the key is to find your own style. If you’re able to wear something with confidence, you will be the one starting a trend. More importantly, an outfit is just a part of your image. It can’t tell the true you. What also matters is your personality and abilities.

【1】Li Meixi tries not to run into stylish people on the street because ________.

A．she thinks they are too ordinary

B．she is afraid of them

C．she looks down upon them

D．she is afraid that she is out of style

【2】What’s the meaning of “exclusion” in paragraph 3?

A．被接纳

B．被排斥

C．被追捧

D．被开除

【3】According to the writer, if people have a sense of self—identity, they will ________.

A．feel anxious about their outfits

B．care about how fashionable people look at them

C．be proud of themselves

D．easily doubt or blame themselves

【4】What would the writer most probably say to Li Meixi?

A．”Be confident! Just be yourself!”

B．”You should change yourself and follow the fashion trend.”

C．”Victory won’t come unless you go for it.”

D．”Learn from other stylish people and try to be fashionable.”
