         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.
         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 (韩国外国语大学). 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 can make people loyal to one's parents 
    D. it is helpful to solve some social problems
    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

         Just getting accepted to an American college or university does not guarantee that you will get a visa.
    And getting a visa just lets you arrive in the United States. It does not guarantee that an immigration officer
    will permit you to enter the country.
         If you are requesting a visa for the first time, you will probably have to go to an American embassy or
    consulate (领事馆). You will need to bring a government form sent to you by your American school that
    shows you have been accepted.
         You will also need banking and tax records that show you have enough money to pay for your education.
    And be prepared to provide evidence that you will return to your home country after your studies end.
         All of this is important in satisfying the requirements to get a visa. A consular official will also take your
    picture and your fingerprints.
         Foreign students must contact their local embassy or consulate to request an interview and to get other
    information. This includes directions about how and where to pay the visa application charge. The cost is
    two hundred dollars.
         You should apply for the visa as soon as you have been accepted to a school in the United States. The
    government needs time to perform a background investigation.
         You cannot receive a visa more than one hundred twenty days before the start of your program. And if
    you are coming as a student for the first time, you cannot enter the country more than thirty days before
    classes begin.
          Once you come to the United States, you can stay for the length of your period of study. Your school
    is required to provide the Department of Homeland Security with reports on your status as a student.
    1. What do you have to take to the American embassy if you request a visa for the first time?
    A. A government form.
    B. Banking and tax records.
    C. Pictures and fingerprints.
    D. Both A and B.
    2. When should you apply for a visa?
    A. The moment you have been accepted to a school in the US.
    B. One hundred twenty days before you go to the US.
    C. Thirty days before classes begin.
    D. After the immigration officer permit you to enter the US.
    3. How much will you be charged for the visa application?
    A. Free of charge.
    B. Two hundred dollars.
    C. One hundred twenty dollars.
    D. Thirty dollars.
    4. What may be the main idea of this passage?
    A. When to get a visa.
    B. Some tips on how to get a visa.
    C. How to enter the US.
    D. Ways to be accepted by American universities.

         What would you think if you went back to school on Monday and there were no desks or chairs in your
    classroom?
          That's what some fourth-and-fifth-graders at a school in Minnesota discovered earlier this year when they
    took part in a research project to see if changing their classrooms would make them more active.
         Researchers from the Mayo Clinic were concerned about reports that as many as half of American kids
    could be seriously overweight-or obese-by the year 2010. So they set up a different kind of classroom, which
    you might see in the future.
          Instead of desks, the Elton Hills Elementary students had adjustable work stations where they could stand,
    kneel on mats or sit on big exercise balls. Students were given laptops and iPods that allowed them to move
    and learn at the same time.
         Sensors (传感器) were attached to the kids' legs to calculate how many calories students burned in their
    new set-up.
          Their typical school day was probably not anything like yours. One group of students downloaded an
    audio file (有声文件) of their teacher reading a book; they listened to it while walking for exercise. Another
    group took a spelling test by listening to their iPods.
         Some students liked the freedom, but others missed the traditional classroom.
         "I don't like standing up," Mariah Matrious said."My legs get tired, and I like sitting down." So, did the
    experiment work? Researchers still are studying the data, but early results indicate that the kids did move
    around more in the new classroom.
         "It showed us that, given the opportunity to move, kids will move," said researcher Lorraine
    Lanningham-Foster.
         That's important because studies have shown that even simple movement-climbing stairs instead of taking
    an elevator (电梯), for example, or washing dishes by hand instead of loading the dishwasher-can be as
    important as formal exercise when it comes to controlling one's weight.
    1. The school in Minnesota carried out the research _____.
    A. to punish the badly performed students
    B. to prevent children from being too fat
    C. to spare a lot of money for the state
    D. to meet the needs of different children
    2. The newly designed classrooms are different from the traditional ones EXCEPT that _____.
    A. there were no desks and chairs
    B. the students can move and learn at the same time
    C. students in different groups are given different tasks
    D. teachers don't necessarily instruct the students
    3. According to Lorraine Lanningham-Foster, _____.
    A. the research got some expected results
    B. the experiment needs further changes
    C. not everyone liked the freedom of this new style
    D. The students should be taught without classrooms
    4. What would be the best title for the text?
    A. No Desks or Chairs in the Classroom
    B. New Classrooms in the Future
    C. School Takes a Stand Against Obesity
    D. Washing dishes by hand in the Classroom

        Today was my birthday. Yesterday our English teacher told us that we were going to have a English exam
    this morning, but I got up early and went over my lessons. During the exams, I carefully finished my paper.
    When I got back to home in the evening, Mother was waiting me. With a new dictionary in his hand, she
    patted me on the shoulder and told me to studying even harder in the future. Father bought me a ten-speed
    bicycle. How happily I was! I made up my mind to be one of the top student in my class.
