Kotlin 中未解决的异步引用

我正在try 在Kotlin中执行异步网络操作.我看过了，你可以用async函数做异步.我快出错了，有没有人能猜出是什么问题？

Unresolved reference: async

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

    async() {
        val forecastWeather = ForecastRequest("302015").execute()
        Log.d("Test", forecastWeather.toString())
    }
}

ForecastRequest.kt

class ForecastRequest(val zipcode: String) {
    companion object {
        private val APP_ID = "XYZ"
        private val URL = "http://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/" +
                    "forecast/daily?mode=json&units=metric&cnt=7"
        private val COMPLETE_URL = "$URL&APPID=$APP_ID&q="
    }

    fun execute(): ForecastResponse {
        val forecastJsonStr = java.net.URL(COMPLETE_URL + zipcode).readText()
        return Gson().fromJson(forecastJsonStr, ForecastResponse::class.java)
    }
}

Top level build.gradle

// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.

buildscript {
    ext.kotlin_version = '1.1.2-4'
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
        jcenter()

        classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"

        // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
        // in the individual module build.gradle files
    }
}

allprojects {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'https://maven.google.com' }
        jcenter()
        mavenCentral()
