T oday‟s young people in their twenties-or “20-somethings”, are often called “millennials(千禧一代)”. Theygrew up around the time of the millennium in the year 2000. Like other generation, millennials share some things in common. Millennials are staying in school longer and getting married later. Some millennials lack full-time jobs, and many are living at home or getting financial help from their parents.
A re the adults? The law says yes. In the United States and many other countries, 18 is the “age of majority”. This means people are considered old enough to be held legally responsible for their actions. But societies usually have their own definitions of adulthood, their own expectations for what being an adult means.
S ome rearchers say today‟s 20-somethings are having a “delayed adulthood”. In othe r words, they are still like teenagers, more mature than adolescents but not quite full adults.
Cherrssa Jesn, who is 27, might agree. She grew up in New Jery, not far from New York City. She says she

expected to get married right after college and to find a job near her parents. Instead, she joined an international exchange program called Up with People.
Her job also took her to different countries. After more than a year of traveling, she was not sure what to do. So she went back to New Jery and moved in with her parents. However, she was not ready to ttle down, so she moved to Denver, Colorado in the western United States, with a friend. After almost a year, they decided they wanted to live clor to the ocean. So they moved across the country again, this time to Florida.
Now she is back to Washington. She is looking for a job and living temporarily with friends. She is not sure yet how long she will stay.
“Eventually I would like to have a family, and a more stable professional job, but it‟s really hard when there‟s so much out there in the world to e and to experience.”
Cheryssa says all her exploring has helped her to understand herlf better and to know what makes her happy.

A bargain is something offered at a low and advantageous price. A more recent definition is: a bargain is a dirty trick to force money out of the pockets of silly and innocent people.
The cost of producing a new-for example-toothpaste would make 80p the proper price for it, so we will market it at ￡1.20. It is not a bad toothpaste, and as people like to try new things, it will ll well to start with; but the attraction of novelty soon fades, so sales will fall. When that happens we will reduce the price to ￡1.15. And we will turn it into a bargain by printing 5p OFF all over it.
Sometimes it is not 5p OFF but 1p OFF. What breathtaking rudeness to adverti 1p OFF your soap or washing powder or whatever! Even the poorest ole-age pensioner ought to regard this as an insult(侮辱), but he doesn‟t. A bargain must not be misd. People say one has to have washing powder (or whatever) and one might as well buy it a penny cheaper.
The real danger starts when unnecessary things become …bargain‟. Many people just cannot resist bargains. Provided they think they are getting a bargain, the will buy clothes they will never wear or f
urniture they have no space for. Once I heard of a man who bought an electric saw as a bargain and cut off two of his fingers the next day. But he had no regrets: the saw had been truly cheap.
Quite a few people actually believe that they make money on such bargains. A lady once told me: “I‟ve had a lucky day today. I bought a dress for ￡120, reduced from ￡400; and I bought a beautiful Persian carpet for ￡600, reduced from ￡900.” It will never occur to her that she has actually wasted ￡720. She feels as though she had made ￡580. She also feels, I am sure, that if she had more time for shopping, she could make a living out of it.
Some people buy in large quantities becau it is cheaper. Once a couple bought enough sugar for their lifetime and
the lifetime of their children and grandchildren, they thought it a bargain not to be misd. When the sugar arrived they didn‟t know where to store it – until they realized that their toilet was a very spacious one. So that was where they piled up their sugar. Not only did their guests feel rather strange whenever they were offered sugar to put into their coffee, but the toilet became extremely sticky.
To offer bargains is a commercial trick to make the poor poorer. When greedy fools fall for this trick, i
t rves them right.微信头像美女

Have you ever imagined what humans will look like in the future? Well, now you don't have to.
According to AsapScience, a Canada-bad video channel that touches on many different science topics, human will be very different creatures 1,000 years from now.
AI, genetic engineering and climate change will work together to change our bodies greatly, according to a video published by the channel.
We could, for instance, develop red eyes as our DNA changes, and have darker skin becau of global warming.
The video painted a picture of a future world in which our bodies are part human, part machine. Nanobots(纳米机器), will be put into our bodies, improving our abilities.
“No longer will we be limited by our own physiology. We will truly become a mixture of biology and machine on the inside,” says the video.

Meanwhile, designer babies will cau future generations grow into intelligent, attractive people. As global warming takes hold, humans will also be skinnier and taller, as this body shape deals with heat better.
In fact, Cadell Last, a rearcher at the Current Aging Science, mankind is already going through a major evolutionary change. In less than four decades, Last claims, we will live longer, have children in old age and need AI to finish daily tasks.
“Your 80 or 100 is going to be so radically(彻底地) different than your grandparents,” Last said. Instead of living fast and dying young, he believes humans will live slow and die old.
“The biological clock isn‟t going to be around forever,” he added, and said that people could pau it for some time using future technology.
Just a few hundred years ago, most humans were working in the fields, while nowadays more and more people receive education. The are just predictions, and no one can be sure how human beings will evolve in the future. But with such huge changes in our environments, it ems likely that we will look very different one day.
12. Which of the following could play a role in the appearance of future huamns?
A. The Internet and AI.
B. Advanced technology and global warming.
C. The cold weather and dangers of machines.
D. Medicine that fights aging and genetic engineering
13. The video relead by AsapScience said that
A. humans will be thinner and shorter
B. part of future human bodies will be machines
C. humans will develop red eyes that will enable them to e clearly at night.
D. tiny robots will be put in humans‟ minds and will give them super abilities
14. Which of the following would Cadell Last probably agree with?
A. Our increasing dependence on AI will threaten our survival one day.
B. Future babies will be designed according to their grandparents‟ wishes.
C. In less than 40 years, humans will have a sudden genetic change to rely on AI.
D. Future technology will pau our biological clocks so that humans live slower and longer.
15. The main purpo of the passage is to
A. tell us about a prediction of how humans will look like in the future
B. offer us different theories on how humans will evolve in the future
阻遏C. encourage us to be imaginative about how humans will look in the future
