         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(附属品).
          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 can't give up their toys their childhood
    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

         If women are mercilessly exploited(剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame.
    Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they
    are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn
    only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion.
         Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend
    large sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot
    afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time changing their old-fashioned
    dresses. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.
         No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion
    designers are rarely concerned with necessary things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). They
    are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up
    with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some
    time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or picking her way
    through deep snow in high heeled shoes.
          When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious.
    Do the constantly changing fashions of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability(稳定耐用)? That is for you to decide.
    1. Designers and big stores always make money_________.
    A. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry
    B. because they are capable of predicting new fashions
    C. by constantly changing the fashions in women's clothing
    D. because they attach great importance to quality in women's clothing
    2. To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dresses is seen as ___________.
    A. a waste of money            
    B. a waste of time
    C. an expression of taste        
    D. an expression of love beauty
    3. New fashions in clothing are created for ___________.
    A. the commercial exploitation of women
    B. the women's strength of character
    C. basic qualities of inconstancy and instability
    D. an important contribution to society
    4. By saying "the conclusions to be drawn are obvious" (Line One to Line Two, Paragraph Four), the
    writer means that ___________.
    A. women's inconstancy in their choice of clothing is often laughed at
    B. women are better able to put up with discomfort
    C. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers
    D. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion

         While football fans feel strongly angry and shocked about mistakes made by referees (裁判) because
    they cannot see clearly what has happened, a small German company is quietly pleased.
         For Cairos Technologies, mistakes made by referees are the kind of advertising that money cannot buy. The company has developed a tiny chip(芯片) that fits inside a football and determines whether the ball
    has crossed the goal line, by being able to discover its exact location on the field. The world football
    organization, FIFA, has shown interest in the technology. It is very possible that the new technology will
    be used in the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
         "We've been testing the technology at the main soccer stadium in Nuremberg for some time and more
    recently in an under-17 FIFA Cup in Peru," said Gunter Rohmer, a director of the company. "The
    technology has performed well, and we're pretty optimistic that it will be used at the games in Germany
    next year."
          The chip only weighs 12 grams, and is placed in the center of the football. It sends 2,000 signals a
    second to a receiver network of 12 antennas(天线), placed around the field. The receivers then send
    information about the ball's location to a central computer, and because it works in real time, it can
    immediately tell the referee whether a goal has been scored. The chip even can tell when the ball crosses
    the line in mid-air. Oliver Braun, one of the inventors of the chip, says that feedback from German referees was generally positive. Germany sports-wear giant Adidas is also optimistic about using this kind of chip
    in other ball sports.
         FIFA aims to test the technology later this year at another game in Japan before deciding whether or
    not to introduce it in all 12 stadiums in Germany for next year's World Cup.
    1. Carlos Technologies is pleased because ________.
    A. football fans are angry with referees
    B. their new product can satisfy football fans
    C. their new product will have a good market
    D. they can sell a lot of football in the future
    2. In the first sentence in Paragraph 2,"... mistakes made by referees are the kind of advertising that
    money cannot buy" means ___________.
    A. Carlos Technologies can't afford the high price for advertising their product
    B. Mistakes in production are also a kind of advertisement
    C. Carios Technologies has already spent a lot of money on advertising their product
    D. Referees' mistakes will be of great help for the sale of Carlos Technologies' new product
    3. The underlined word "feedback" probably means ___________.
    A. information given back by a user  
    B. advice given by someone
    C. supplying food to customers      
    D. food given back by consumers
    4. The new product has drawn attention from some _________.
    A. famous people    
    B. Adidas    
    C. big companies  
    D. countries

  • 根据短文内容,从下框的A-F 选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项.选项有一项为多余项。

    1.
    There is considerable variety in university classrooms in the United States. Because of diverse teaching
    methods and non-standardized curricula (课程), no two courses are the same.    Undergraduate courses
    are considerable different from graduate courses. The classroom atmosphere in expensive, private
    universities may differ from that in community colleges, which are free and open to everyone.
    2.
    Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses.
    Some professors base part of the final grade on the student's oral participation. Although there are formal
    lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e., listening and taking notes), many courses are
    organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures.
    3.
    Many teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the student. (Courses are not designed
    merely for students to pass exams.) The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn
    for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades.
    4.
    Ideally, the teacher-student relationship at universities is characterized by trust. Thus, cheating on tests,
    Plagiarizing (抄袭) in written work, presenting other's ideas as original, and turning in homework
    completed by someone else are all prohibited (禁止).
    5.

    Relationships between students in the classroom can be cooperative or competitive. International
    students should not hesitate to ask for help if it is needed. in classes where such a grading curve is used,
    students may be reluctant to share lecture notes or information for fear that their own grades will suffer.
