"Keep up with it" と "catch up with it" の違いは、行動や状況に対するアプローチの違いにあります。
"Keep up with it" は、何かについていくことや遅れないようにすることを意味します。つまり、他の人や状況と同じペースやレベルで行動することを指します。例えば、仕事や勉強の進捗が速い場合、他の人と同じペースで進むように努力するときに使います。
例:
- I need to keep up with my colleagues in order to succeed in this project.
(このプロジェクトで成功するためには、同僚たちと同じペースで進む必要がある。)
一方、"catch up with it" は、遅れを取り戻すことや追いつくことを意味します。つまり、他の人や状況に追いつくために努力することを指します。例えば、友達との会話や最新の情報についていくために、過去の出来事や情報を追いかけるときに使います。
例:
- I need to catch up with the news before the meeting tomorrow.
(明日の会議の前に、ニュースに追いつかなければならない。)
このように、"keep up with it" は他と同じペースを維持することを指し、"catch up with it" は遅れを取り戻すことを指す点が異なります。

"Keep up with it" = I know it very well, but I need to pay attention to it, because it changes often. I want to know when it changes and I want to understand those changes, so that I will continue to know it well.
"Catch up with it" = I used to know it well, but I stopped paying attention to it and I don't know it very well anymore. I need to research it to learn how it has changed since I used to know it.
