This is also why these adults are sometimes referred to as “kidults”.According to Frederique Tutt, an analyst at NPD, the motivation of these grown-ups is to escape the stress of todays fast-paced world. They are driven toward the more immediate pleasures brought by toys t

42、han those brought by, say, getting a promotion, which is far less easy to achieve.“It reminds me of the playful side of life,” Rob Willner, a 25-year-old PhD student in the UK, told The Telegraph when talking about his love for Lego, which he said brings him both comfort and entertainment.Despite th

But thanks to etiquette (礼仪) expert and author William Hanson, we realize that little has changed during the past 100 years.In a BBC radio program, Hanson released a list of common

50、words used in British English that could reveal whether a person is “common” or “fashionable”.And yet here comes the interesting part: While some of us might go through life using fancy words, dressing in ways that make us appear more well-off than we really are, there are wealthy people in the worl

51、d who try to hide their riches because they want to be seen as “normal” instead of “showy”.Beatrice, for example, is a New Yorker who inherited (继承) millions of dollars. She told The New York Times that she has a habit of removing the price tags (价签) from her clothes so her house staff dont see them

52、 and feel uncomfortable.“We dont want that Wow.” said Scott, also a New Yorker, who had just inherited over $50 million. “Were just not the type of people who wear it on our sleeve.”1、What does William Hanson find?APeople failed to judge others manner.BPeople judge others by their way of talking.CPe
