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.
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
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
B. kidults have mental problems
C. our society is very dull
D. some people can never grow up

post office?"
Foreign tourists are often confused (困惑) in Japan because most streets there don"t have names; in Japan,
people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to
travelers, "Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office
is across from the bus stop."
In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains,
so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks,
people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, "Go north two
miles. Turn east, and then go another mile."
People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not
miles. "How far away is the post office?" you ask. "Oh," they answer, "it"s about five minutes from here." You
say, "Yes, but how many miles away is it?" They don"t know.
It"s true that a person doesn"t know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a
situation? A new Yorker might say, "Sorry, I have no idea." But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers "I don"t
know." People in Yucatan believe that "I don"t know" is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong
one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!
B. show him a map of the place
C. tell him the names of the streets
D. refer to recognizable buildings and places
B. Los Angeles.
C. Kansas.
D. Iowa.
B. as a test
C. so as to be polite
D. for fun
B. There is no landmarks in the countryside of American.
C. People in Yucatan always give wrong answers when asked the way.
D. People in Los Angeles measure distance in time, not miles when asked the way.
B. It"s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.
C. People have similar understandings of politeness.
D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.
more about new cultures. Traditional pen pals were the primary source for such contacts, and students could
write each other letters. With the Internet, finding friends has become much easier, and such relationships are
called key pals.
However, care and consideration should be given when finding friends on the Internet:
◎Search the Internet for reputable (有信誉的) services. Look for reviews(评论) of such sites to learn more about other students" experiences. Don"t join a service until you have done your research.
◎Check to see if you can use a nickname (绰号) instead of __________, to protect your identity(身份).
◎Never give personal information to anyone, including your home address, phone number, and birthday.
◎Stop contact with others if you feel uncomfortable with the topics of conversation. Again, if you protect
your identity, this will be easier to do. Tell your teachers, parents, or even local law enforcement if problem
arise.
◎Try to use the language you are studying in the classroom in your communication(交流) with others.
◎Ask proper questions that will also help you learn about other cultures. Remember that someone"s
personal experience might help you to understand a whole culture. You have to talk to many different people,
and this will get you started.

have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They declare that if more people rode bikes to work,
there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air form car engines. For
several years, this group had been trying to get the city government to help bike riders.
For example, they want the city to draw special lanes (车道) for bikes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there
were special lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bike lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea-they say it will slow traffic. Some
store owners on the main streets don"t like the idea-they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.
The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends,
Central Park-the largest place open ground in New York- is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bikes
only.
B. have no cars of their own
C. are complaining there are not enough buses
D. are trying to settle the problem of air pollution
B. bike lanes should be drawn
C. fewer buses or cars should be used
D. the number of special lanes should be decreased
B. they will make it easier for bike riders to go to parks
C. they will make the city more beautiful
D. they will prevent accidents
I"m a Senior 1 student in a middle school. This term, my favourite teacher, Miss Mao, no longer teaches
us. I want to see her, but I"m afraid that she no longer likes me and I don"t want to trouble her. I really miss
her. What should I do?
Tian Yan
Dear Tian Yan,
It"s bad luck that you have lost your favourite teacher. But, if she is still in your school, nothing can stop
you going to see her. When she isn"t busy, ask her if she minds having a quick chat. You can then tell her
she was your favourite teacher. Everyone is happy to know they are liked!
If she has left the school, it will be more difficult to meet her. It will be hard, but remember people always
come and go in our lives. We can"t rely on (依靠) them being with us all the time.
You may be sad to say goodbye to her, but we can remember and learn from her. Think of her best
qualities.
You could also try looking for similar qualities in your other teachers. Study hard and give your new
teacher a chance. In time, you might start to see that he or she has different qualities to learn from.
Finally, you can not completely rely on other people getting you through your studies, or even your life.

With a healthy image, handsome face and Japan"s coolest haircut, Takeshi Kaneshiro (金城武) is one of
Asia"s most attractive stars.
When "Turn Left Turn Right" (<<向左走向右走>>) opens in Chinese cinemas next month, there"s no
doubt the 29-year-old boy will get even more attention.
Takeshi stars as John, a lonely violin player who falls in love with a translator called Eve, played by Gigi
Leung(梁咏琪). Many of Takeshi"s fans like to copy his haircut, clothes and even his smile. But they will find
it hard to copy the way he plays the violin in the movie. He impressed his director To Keifung (杜琪峰) by
learning to play the violin in a few weeks.
This attitude to hard work is one of the reasons why Takeshi is such a good role model for young people.
Like many young people, he values friendship more than anything else. "My best friends are my former
schoolmates," he once said,"We became close when we were at school and will be friends forever."
Besides his good looks and hairstyle, he is well known for his healthy image. He started his acting career at
the young age of 15 but, unlike other pop stars, he has rarely behaved badly. He stays away from drugs,
alcohol and cigarettes. Violence, rude words and dirty jokes seldom appear in his movies.
"I hated foreign language classes when I was in school, but now I find speaking several languages helps me
a lot in my career," he said. For someone who only took up acting, Takeshi has come far. No doubt his star
will rise even higher.
B. Takeshi impressed his audience and fans with a perfect image
C. Takeshi acts perfectly in all the films
D. Takeshi can speak Chinese perfectly
B. Takeshi falls in love with Gigi Leung
C. Fans like to copy his life style including the way he smokes.
D. Takeshi will be more successful in the future.
B. He is seldom ill.
C. He behaves in a healthy way.
D. Both A and C
B. he loves movies more than anything else
C. he was attracted by some movie stars when he was 15
D. none of the above
