第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分，满分40分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

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.

51. We can infer from the article that _________.

A. Kidults like to have vitamins very much

B. Kidults miss their childhood so much that they can't give up their toys

C. Bloomsbury knows some kidults don't want people to know that they are kidults

D. Some toys are so interesting that even adults like them very much

52. According to the author, being a kidult is good in some way except that _______.

A. it can help kidults feel relaxed

B. it is helpful to solve some social problems

C. it can make people loyal to one's parents

D it can improve the relationship between parents and their kids

53. According to the writer, _______.

A. our society is very dull B. kidults have mental problems

C. being a kidult is nothing wrong D. some people can never grow up
