For a child on a bike thats really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. Yo

29、u would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as thebicycle capital of the world. The number of bicyclesin Amsterdam is estimated at 881,000 more than the citys 850,000 inhabitants and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta sa

30、ys: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she wo

31、n a contest in which schoolchildren were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add childrens bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city an

33、cle. Right now, most of us learn it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really dont know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoin

34、t junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city thats good for an eight-year-old is also good for an

38、nce more. Every summer, I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed. Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd. I am no friend to chaos, either.I read George Orwells 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors, n

39、o telephones or televisions in the rooms. 1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection. Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel, however, was less fruitful: I made it through one and a quarter volumes, but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldnt keep them open.Bu

40、t this summer I find myself at a loss. Im not quite interested in J.DSalinger, say, or Frankenstein. Theres always War and Peace which Ive covered some distance several times, only to get bogged down in the “War” part, set it aside for a while, and realize that I have to start over from the beginnin

41、g again, having forgotten everyones name and social rank. How appealing to simply fall back on a favoriteonce more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland, which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature.And then theres John Stein

42、becks The Grapes of Wrath. This title does not amaze but confuse. Were never short of sour grapes, but weve never heard of angry grapes. Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer. These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once.1、What can we infer from Paragraph 2?AT

46、o be a matter of fact when Peter Pan a character from James Matthew Barries 1911 book said: “All children, except one, grow up.”But this “fact” doesnt seem to apply to todays world anymore.According to the NPD Group, a US market research company, sales of toys to adults in the UK increased by more t

47、han 20 percent in 2016, three times the pace of the childrens toy market itself. These toys ranged from puzzles and Lego building sets to vehicle models and action figures. And more than half of the sales came from millennials people born between the 1980s and 2000s.“Adults of the 21st century are c

48、hanneling their inner child, one toy at a time,” commented website Koreaboo. 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 tow

49、ard the more immediate pleasures brought by toys than 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 br

50、ings him both comfort and entertainment.Despite this, some social scientists see the trend as disturbing. To Frank Furendi, a professor at the University of Kent in the UK, the fact that so many adults are pursuing “the thrills of youth” is the evidence that “adulthood has got nothing attractive abo

51、ut it anymore”, he told The New York Times. “Thats actually quite sad.”But scientists are probably just worrying too much. According to Canadian comic book artist Todd McFarlane, collecting toys could simply be a way for people to express their individuality. “Its just pop culture stuff. Its stuff t

52、hat says, I like a little of this and I like a little of that,” he told ABC News. “Its no big deal.”So now that over 100 years have passed since Peter Pan, perhaps its time to introduce a new “fact”, as stated in the tagline (标语) of the UK fashion brand KIDULT: “Growing old is mandatory (被迫的), but g

53、rowing up is optional.”1、What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 imply?ASomething old is not suitable for a new world.BMany adults still have some childlike features.CAll children grow up as they become adults.DIts difficult for some children to grow up in todays world.2、Which of the follow

54、ing statements is true?AFrederique Tutt believes that some adults enjoy playing with childrens toys to escape the stress.BRob Willner believes that the pleasure brought by toys is easier to achieve.CFrank Furendi believes that the thrill of youth does not attract adults.DTodd McFarlane is worrying t

55、oo much about collecting toys.3、What is the writers attitude towards the trend of growing kidults?ASupportive. BDoubtful.CCritical. DIndifferent.4、What can be the best title for the passage?AGrowing Old Or Growing Up BToys Sales On The RiseCStaying Young Forever DKidults In Fashion Again第三部分 语言知识运用（
