Do you remember playing house as a child pretending（假装） to be a grown-up like your parents? Did you imagine you were a doctor, a soldier or a teacher? At that time, anything seemed more exciting than being young.But now as grown-ups, some adults find they cannot leave childhood behind. They become “kidults”. 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、附件）.Other kidults still enjoy childrens stories and fairy tales. For example, the British publisher Bloomsbury even released an edition（发布一个版本） of 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 childrens book.“Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who love their childhood most and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society,” said Lee So-jung, a professor at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies.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.Tim Greenhalgh, an adviser in London explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They hold on to childhood because working 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.“So, they can escape from increasingly busy and stressful lives that are hard to deal with,” Greenhalgh said.（1）Why does a kid wish to be an adult? A . Because he wants to be independent（独立）.B . Because he doesnt want to be controlled by adults.C . Because he wants to experience the real world.D . Because he believes there will be more exciting life ahead.（2）What can we infer（推断） from the passage? A . Some kidults refuse to grow up.B . Some kidults in Britain like reading on the subway.C . Some kidults think childhood is the best time of their life.D . Some kidults want to escape from the busy and stressful life（3）One of the advantages of the kidult culture is that _. A . it can make adults face the real social lifeB . it can make our society young and full of lifeC . it can increase the sales of childrens booksD . it can lead to harmonious（和谐的） relationship between adults and kids（4）Which of the following is the best title for the article? A . Kids or Grown-upsB . Happy ChildhoodC . Fearful AdulthoodD . Kidult Culture20. （10分）阅读理解Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The program works because everyones eyes are different. So in the future you wont have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. Youll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.The eye-recognition(眼睛识别) program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology will take the place of(取代)all other ways of finding out who people are.Eye-recognition is a course of recognizing iris(虹膜), which includes the following steps. First, a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of ones iris from his eyes and store them. Second, when this person goes to the bank to take out of money, this machine will have iris feature extraction(采集).Then, this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction. Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same, this person will be identified, and he will take out of the money from the bank successfully.However, scientists are also working on other systems. Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes dont change as you get older, and dont get dirty like hands or fingers, and even twins have different eyes. So the eye-recognition program can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology(科技)is. However, some other programs may only be 51% correct now. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye. So smile!（1）How does the eye-recognition program work? A . You type in your number.B . You say your name.C . You look at the machine.D . You show your ID card.（2）Why can the eye-recognition program be up to 94 correct? A . Because eyes hardly change.B . Because the program is widely used around the world.C . Because people like the idea of the program.D . Because hands or fingers can get dirty.（3）Which recognition program has been already in use? A . Remembering smells.B . Remembering fingerprints.C . Remembering the shape of faces.D . Remembering eyes.（4）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . The eye-recognition program can be up to 51% correct.B . In Britain, 91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.C . Everyones eyes are different, even twins have different eyes.D .
