Question

【题目】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.(配件)

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.

【解析】

试题分析：文章讲述的是亚洲年轻人的一种社会现象。每个人孩子都想成为成年人，但是有一些长大的孩子不能脱离童年时代，他们变成了"kidults"，他们珍惜童年，因为忙碌有压力的城市生活使他们感到害怕。他们愿意忘记他们的年龄并公开表达他们对社会和成年的恐惧。成为一个kidults并没有错。

【1】B推理判断题。根据第三段第二、三句Bloomsbury even published the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. Bloomsbury甚至出版带着一个成人封面的哈利波特小说。 That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a children's book!用那种方法，在地铁上没有其他的人知道一个成年人实际上正在读一本孩子的书。故选B。

【2】D推理判断题。根据第四段第三句He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. 他补充说，kidult文化可以填充成年人和孩子之间的代沟。可排除A项；根据最后一段的第二句They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them.他们珍惜童年，因为忙碌有压力的城市生活使他们感到害怕。可排除B项；根据最后一段的第三句Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood. Kidults愿意忘记他们的年龄并公开表达他们对社会和成年的恐惧。可知排除C项。因此可知只有D项符合题意，故选D。

【3】A推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句He may be right.他可能是正确的。故选A。

谈阅读理解题中的干扰项

干扰项也是以文章中的某个细节设题，若不仔细辨别，很容易把它当成正确选项。干扰项有以下特征：

1、将原文内容扩大或缩小。把原文中的限定词去掉或替换，使该选项看似正确，实际上却是错误选项。

2、把未然当已然。改变文中某句话的时态，如把将来时变成现在时，把未发生的事情当成已发生的事情。

3、无中生有。即选项内容是根据主观想象或推测得出的结论，而文中并未涉及。

4、偷换概念。把原来做该事的“张三”换成“李四”，所述细节确实与原文一致，一不小心就会误选。

5、文不对题。这类题最不容易辨别，选项中的描述与原文完全一致，确属原文中的一个细节，这时要回到题干，看该选项是否能回答题干所提的问题。

比如，第6小题，推理判断题。根据第四段第三句He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. 他补充说，kidult文化可以填充成年人和孩子之间的代沟。可排除A项；根据最后一段的第二句They value childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them.他们珍惜童年，因为忙碌有压力的城市生活使他们感到害怕。可排除B项；根据最后一段的第三句Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood. Kidults愿意忘记他们的年龄并公开表达他们对社会和成年的恐惧。可知排除C项。因此可知只有D项符合题意，故选D。
