It used to be a matter of fact when Peter Pan – a character from James Matthew Barrie’s 1911 book – said: “All children, except one, grow up.”

But this “fact” doesn’t seem to apply to today’s world anymore.

According to the NPD Group, a US market research company, sales of toys to adults in the UK increased by more than 20 percent in 2016, three times the pace of the children’s toy market itself. These toys ranged from puzzles and Lego building sets to vehicle models and action figures. And more than half of the sales came from millennials – people born between the 1980s and 2000s.

“Adults of the 21st century are channeling (疏導(dǎo)) their inner child, one toy at a time,” commented website Koreaboo. This is also why these adults are sometimes referred to as “kidults”.

According to Frederique Tutt, an analyst at NPD, the motivation of these grown-ups is to escape the stress of today’s fast-paced world. They are driven toward the more immediate pleasures brought by toys than those brought by, say, getting a promotion, which is far less easy to achieve.

“It reminds me of the playful side of life,” Rob Willner, a 25-year-old PhD student in the UK, told The Telegraph when talking about his love for Lego, which he said brings him both comfort and entertainment.

Despite this, some social scientists see the trend as disturbing. To Frank Furendi, a professor at the University of Kent in the UK, the fact that so many adults are pursuing “the thrills (刺激) of youth” is the evidence that “adulthood has got nothing attractive about it anymore”, he told The New York Times.u “That’s actually quite sad.”

But scientists are probably just worrying too much. According to Canadian comic book artist Todd McFarlane, collecting toys could simply be a way for people to express their individuality (個性).

“It’s just pop culture stuff. It’s stuff that says, ‘I like a little of this and I like a little of that’,” he told ABC News. “[It’s] no big deal.”

So now that over 100 years have passed since Peter Pan, perhaps it’s time to introduce a new “fact”, as stated in the tagline (品牌宣傳詞) of the UK fashion brand KIDULT: “Growing old is mandatory (強(qiáng)制性的), but growing up is optional.”

1.The author mentions Peter Pan in the text mainly to ______.

A. show the influence of the character on millennials

B. explore the similarities Peter Pan and millennials share

C. lead up to the trend of millennials’ love for toys

D. analyze what has made many millennials refuse to grow up

2.Why do many adults feel like collecting toys, according to Frederique Tutt?

A. They find it brings them both comfort and inspiration.

B. They consider it a way to relieve stress.

C. They want to make up for the pleasures they missed during childhood.

D. They usually don’t get along well in their lives and need an emotional outlet.

3.What can we conclude from the article about kidults?

A. They are well-known for their pursuit of independence and freedom.

B. Social scientists feel worried about them because they take nothing seriously.

C. In Todd McFarlane’s eyes, their interest in toys is a way to express their identity.

D. They refuse to make efforts to become promoted at work as they don’t want to grow up.

Following news of the potential for life on the recently-discovered TRAPPIST-1 system, there may be another competitor ready to take its place.

With the help of the Cassini spacecraft, NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) scientists have picked up the first evidence that chemical reactions are taking place deep below the surface of Enceladus, Saturn’s (土星的) sixth-largest moon. This means that there could be life in Enceladus’ warm underground seas.

An early study found that liquid oceans exist miles below Enceladus’ surface. But to reveal what is happening down there, scientists must rely on the plumes (股) of water that spray (噴射) through cracks in Enceladus’ icy surface. In October 2015, NASA sent Cassini into a deep dive into one of the plumes.

Cassini’s findings, published on April 13 in the journal Science, showed that hydrogen (氫) not only exists on Enceladus, but is also responsible for a chemical reaction between hot rocks and water in the ocean beneath its surface.

This same process on Earth provides energy for entire ecosystems around volcanic vents (火山口). There, tiny creatures are able to survive without sunlight, using hydrogen and carbon dioxide as fuel in a process known as “methanogenesis (甲烷生成)”.

The discovery of this chemical energy source on Enceladus means it could be a very good candidate to host life.

“Confirmation (確認(rèn)) that the chemical energy for life exists within the ocean of a small moon of Saturn is an important milestone (里程碑) in our search for habitable (可居住的) worlds beyond Earth,” Linda Spilker, Cassini project scientist at NASA, told the Daily Mail.

Alien life was once only thought possible on habitable planets within the “Goldilocks zone” – far enough from our sun not to be a fireball, but not so far as to be freezing.

Research on Enceladus is still in its early stages, but the recent findings have important meanings for future exploration.

“At present, we know of only one genesis (誕生) of life, the one that led to us,” David Rothery, professor of planetary geosciences (行星與地球科學(xué)) from the Open University in the UK, told The Telegraph.

“If we knew that life had started independently in two places in our solar system, then we could be pretty confident that life also got started on some of the tens of billions of planets and moons around other stars in our galaxy,” he said.

1.What is the article mainly about?

A. The connection between the TRAPPIST-1 system and Enceladus.

B. The potential for life on Saturn’s moon, Enceladus.

C. The chemical energy source on Enceladus.

D. Scientists’ constant search for life in the solar system.

2.Scientists assume that there could be life on Enceladus because ______.

A. there is evidence of a warm ocean under Enceladus’ surface

B. hot rocks and water have been discovered on Enceladus

C. hydrogen discovered on Enceladus could be a chemical energy source

D. the entire ecosystems of Enceladus are somewhat similar to those of Earth

3.According to David Rothery, the recent findings on Enceladus could mean that ______.

A. there is only one genesis of life in our galaxy

B. there could be many habitable planets, but all in the “Goldilocks zone”

C. it won’t be long before scientists find a habitable planet beyond Earth

D. alien life could exist on some other planets if it existed on Enceladus
