【題目】Every kid wishes to be an adult. But now as grown-ups, some adults find they cannot leave childhood behind. They become "kidults" (kid+adult). Being a kidult has become a lifestyle-choice among young people across Asia.

Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-something woman with a big, Garfield-shaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory.(配件)

Other kidults still enjoy children's stories and fairy tales. For example, Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a children's book!

"Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society," said Lee Sojung, professor of Foreign Studies at Hankuk University(韓國外國語大學(xué)). He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together. He may be right.

Tim Greenhalgh, a professor , explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood.

【1】We can infer from the article that _________.

A. Kidults miss their childhood so much that they can't give up their toys

B. Bloomsbury knows some kidults don't want people to know that they are kidults

C. Kidults like to have vitamins very much

D. Some toys are so interesting that even adults like them very much

【2】According to the author, being a kidult is good in some way EXCEPT that _______.

A. it can improve the relationship between parents and their kids

B. it can help kidults feel relaxed

C. it is helpful to solve some social problems

D. it can make people loyal to one's parents

【3】According to the writer, _______.

A. being a kidult is nothing wrong

B. kidults have mental problems

C. our society is very dull

D. some people can never grow up

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】A

【解析】

試題分析:文章講述的是亞洲年輕人的一種社會現(xiàn)象。每個(gè)人孩子都想成為成年人,但是有一些長大的孩子不能脫離童年時(shí)代,他們變成了"kidults",他們珍惜童年,因?yàn)槊β涤袎毫Φ某鞘猩钍顾麄兏械胶ε。他們愿意忘記他們的年齡并公開表達(dá)他們對社會和成年的恐懼。成為一個(gè)kidults并沒有錯(cuò)。

【1】B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第二、三句Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. Bloomsbury甚至出版帶著一個(gè)成人封面的哈利波特小說。 That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a children's book!用那種方法,在地鐵上沒有其他的人知道一個(gè)成年人實(shí)際上正在讀一本孩子的書。故選B。

【2】D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第三句He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. 他補(bǔ)充說,kidult文化可以填充成年人和孩子之間的代溝?膳懦鼳項(xiàng);根據(jù)最后一段的第二句They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them.他們珍惜童年,因?yàn)槊β涤袎毫Φ某鞘猩钍顾麄兏械胶ε。可排除B項(xiàng);根據(jù)最后一段的第三句Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood. Kidults愿意忘記他們的年齡并公開表達(dá)他們對社會和成年的恐懼?芍懦鼵項(xiàng)。因此可知只有D項(xiàng)符合題意,故選D。

【3】A推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后一句He may be right.他可能是正確的。故選A。

【學(xué)法指導(dǎo)】

談閱讀理解題中的干擾項(xiàng)

干擾項(xiàng)也是以文章中的某個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)設(shè)題,若不仔細(xì)辨別,很容易把它當(dāng)成正確選項(xiàng)。干擾項(xiàng)有以下特征:

1、將原文內(nèi)容擴(kuò)大或縮小。把原文中的限定詞去掉或替換,使該選項(xiàng)看似正確,實(shí)際上卻是錯(cuò)誤選項(xiàng)。

2、把未然當(dāng)已然。改變文中某句話的時(shí)態(tài),如把將來時(shí)變成現(xiàn)在時(shí),把未發(fā)生的事情當(dāng)成已發(fā)生的事情。

3、無中生有。即選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容是根據(jù)主觀想象或推測得出的結(jié)論,而文中并未涉及。

4、偷換概念。把原來做該事的“張三”換成“李四”,所述細(xì)節(jié)確實(shí)與原文一致,一不小心就會誤選。

5、文不對題。這類題最不容易辨別,選項(xiàng)中的描述與原文完全一致,確屬原文中的一個(gè)細(xì)節(jié),這時(shí)要回到題干,看該選項(xiàng)是否能回答題干所提的問題。

比如,第6小題,推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第三句He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. 他補(bǔ)充說,kidult文化可以填充成年人和孩子之間的代溝?膳懦鼳項(xiàng);根據(jù)最后一段的第二句They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them.他們珍惜童年,因?yàn)槊β涤袎毫Φ某鞘猩钍顾麄兏械胶ε。可排除B項(xiàng);根據(jù)最后一段的第三句Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood. Kidults愿意忘記他們的年齡并公開表達(dá)他們對社會和成年的恐懼?芍懦鼵項(xiàng)。因此可知只有D項(xiàng)符合題意,故選D。

Last weekend we went mountain climbing. Even the heavy rain in the morning could not prevent us go. Setting off very early, we went along an extreme narrow road, all in high spirits. On every side of the road were green fields and some farm house. We can hear the sound of the rain and our footsteps mixing with our laughter. At noon we reached the top of the mountain. That surprised us most there was the beauty of scenes .After having a short rest there and sharing with the food we had brought, we started going down. It rained even harder. We were wet to the skin, and we still sang and laughed happily.
