1.[1]In Finland winters are long and cold,with temperatures rarely rising above freezing,and the nights never seem to end.In addition,those who live in the far north of the country have to cope with the"polar night",a period of 51 days on end during which the sun never rises.But the Finns have invented a way of staying warm and happy-the sauna(桑拿).
[2]Almost every house in Finland has one;in a country which numbers just five  million inhabitants,there are an estimated two million saunas.
[3]Saunas have been around for a long time.The first written reference to the sauna dates back to the l2th century.At first,the sauna was just a heated hole in the ground used for bathing.But over time,as the population became more settled,it became an above-ground room separated from the main house.Today,however,most modern hornes include a sauna,in addition to a shower or bath,in the bathroom.
[4]For Finns the sauna is part of life from childhood,and an experience to be shared with family or friends.It is usual for men and women to take turns to have a sauna.In public saunas there will be separate saunas for men and women.The aim is to relax and sweat,after which you can have a shower,or just run about in the snow outside.Some people even dive into a nearby lake!
[5]But are saunas healthy?        .For example,although some people think  that it is possible to use a sauna to lose weight,most doctors would advise against it.More realistic claims made in favor of saunas include improving blood circulation,getting rid of toxins(毒素),helping people who have breathing problems,and relieving tired muscle.What's more,research by the Finnish Medical Society suggests that people who regularly have saunas reduce their chances of catching colds by up to 30 percent.
66.What is"polar night"?(no more than 20 words)The polar night is a period of 51 days on end when the sun never rises.
67.What does the information in Para.2 suggest?(no more than l5 words)It suggests that the saunas are very popular in Finland./People in Finland love saunas very much.
68.What's the main idea of Para 3?(no more than 10 words)The history of the sauna./The development of the sauna./Saunas have been around for a long time.
69.List three things that people usually do after taking saunas.
①having a shower ②running about in the snow outside ③diving intoa nearby lake    
70.Fill in the blank in Para.5 with proper words.(no more than 10 words)Opinions are divided./Opinions are different./People have different opinions.

分析 文章講述了芬蘭的桑拿.芬蘭的冬天異常寒冷,為了驅(qū)寒,芬蘭每家每戶都有桑拿.桑拿的歷史很悠久,可以追溯到十二世紀(jì).對(duì)于桑拿是否對(duì)人體有好處,人們看法不一.

12.Some Ways to Deal With Hardships and Pain in Life
Regardless of the difficulties you may face,it's getting support and moving forward that counts(重要) the most when you need to deal with hardships.(36)E
Write or talk about how you feel.
Keeping my feelings to myself used to make me feel lonely,but when I found someone who actually cared about me,it became natural to share how I felt with him and that contributed to my ability to overcome troublesome situation.(37)F Although talking to strangers about your problems may seem crazy,it actually isn't.
(38)B
It is said that running away from your problems will never help,and though that is partially true,it doesn't mean that you need to go so deeply in a situation that you run out of air to breathe and lose the ability to make your choices.It is why it's important to separate yourself from a situation long enough to think clearly.
Remind yourself that you are not alone.
Regardless of who or what you depend on,you need to remind yourself that you are not alone; you have people who do care.(39)G Sometimes it's strangers who may share the same feeling as you do.Think about it----you may not know any readers personally but they could be in the exact same situation as you,so in fact,no one is truly alone.
Accept the results and get support again
(40)D Whether the results of your choices proved to be helpful or not,it's time for you to accept them and get support.This time you have a new experience go add to your book of life so the next time something tries to knock you down,it won't be easy because you will be strong and determined to push forward.

A.Tell yourself to accept the hardship.
B.Separate yourself from the situation.
C.All in all,remember that life is short.
D.Finally,it's time to accept what has happened.
E.Here are some things I've tried just to help me believe in a brighter future and get over
a tough situation.
F.Not only did I speak to him about how I felt,but I decided to blog(寫博客) about it.
G.Even if it's just one person,that enough to give you reasons to remind yourself that you will never truly be alone.

9.Matthew Henson-Arctic Explorer
In 1880,fourteen-year-old Matthew Henson loved to hear sailors tell tales of their exciting lives at sea.The travel,the adventure,the danger,and the steady pay were all attracting young Henson.One day,he found a job as a cabin boy on a beautiful ship called the Katie Hinds.For the next five years,Henson sailed around the world.With the help of the ship's captain and other members of the crew,Henson learned mathematics,navigation,history,geography,and many other subjects.By the time he left the Katie Hinds in 1885,Henson was well educated and had become an excellent seaman.
Unable to find work anywhere else,Henson took a job in a hat shop in Washington,D.C.One day in 1887,a man came in to buy a hat.The man,Robert Peary,asked the owner if he knew anyone with experience at sea.Peary would soon travel to South America for the U.S.government.He needed experienced men to accompany him.The shop owner knew about his young employee's skills and experience on ocean journeys,so he introduced Peary to Henson.
Using his map-reading and sailing skills,Henson proved himself to be a worthy and smart seaman.Peary soon made Henson his assistant,and they became close friends.One day Peary told Henson about his real dream:to be the first man to stand on"the top of the world"at the North Pole.He asked Henson to help him make his dream come true.Over the next five years,the two explorers made two trips together to the Arctic.However,they were not able to reach the pole either time.The cold,wind,and ice were worse than either of them had ever imagined.
In 1908,Peary and Henson were ready to make their final attempt at reaching the North Pole.Both men were over forty years old.The years of hardship in the arctic cold had made them suffer a lot.This would be their last chance.With four Inuit guides,they made a mad rush straight across the ice toward the pole.Peary's feet were injured and he had to be pulled on a dogsled.In April 1909,Henson's instruments showed they were standing at the North Pole.Together Henson and Peary planted the American flag in the snow.
In later years,Robert Peary and Henson were greatly honored for their achievements.Today,the two friends and fellow explorers lie in heroes'graves not far apart in the Arlington National Cemetery.
60.In paragraph1,the author shows how Henson becameA.
A.a(chǎn) skilled seaman 
B.a(chǎn) highly educated captain

16.Raise your hand if you've had your Smartphone stolen. According to the Federal Communication Commission(FCC.),the phone theft rate for the year 2013is estimated to be about 369per 100,000individuals-with a higher rate in cities. The solution to that problem  starts at home-with you. While 36percent of Smartphone owners secure their phonic with a  four-digit code,just 11percent used a code longer than four digits,a password,or an unlock  pattern; fully a thrice of those surveyed took none forth listed security measures at all.
Improved security can definitely help deter thefts. In cases where users set no password,it's quite easy to erase a phone and turn it around on the black market. While simple four-digit pass codes can help slow that process down,they are mathematically much cashier to crack(破解) than longer,more complicated passwords.
Technological measures have agreeably begun in the making process:Apple,lord example,introduced a feature which prevents someone from disabling the Find My aphonic service,erasing the device,or react.inviting an erased device. In the six months after that upstate,thefts of phones decreased by around a quarter in New York,San Francisco and London. Were everybody to set a strafing password on their devices-or work device makers to re.curie. Lasers to set a pass code,rather than merely suggesting it.it would be considerably harder tore thieves to resell those phonics elsewhere. Though. much as with cars,it wouldn't necessarily stop insolents where smart phones arc taken apart.
I've FCC,is asking that device makers better educate considers about the anti-theft measures available on their devices. Really,it's a matter of common sense:just as you wouldn't leave your house unlocked-especially if'you lived in an urban area-you shouldn't walk around with an unprotected phone. Because these days. the amulet oversensitive and personal information you keep in your phone may actually be more valuable than what you leave in your house. So,for your own sake,fire up that Smartphone and sct a secure pass code,and do it right now.

41. Which of the following can be the FCC's conclusion'sA
A. More smart bones arc stolen in cities than in the countryside.
B. Smartphone's should be put at home so that they won't be stolen.
C. About 400smart phones were stolen in cities in 2013.
D. A four-digit codec is the best way to scurf your Smartphone.
42. What does the underlined word"deter"in Paragraph 2probably mean'?B
A. Commit.                 B. Discourage.
C. Investigate.            D. Report
43. If security measures are taken in the making process,C
A. it won't be possibly for stolen smart phonics to be sold
B. users have to set a pass Coclé before using a Smartphone
C. there will be fewer thefts of smart phonics
D. the stolen smart phones will be almost Listless
44. We can know loom the last paragraph thatD
A. houses can usually be lei unlocked in the countryside
B. people should buy more expensive snort phones
C. personal or valuable information should be kept in the Smartphone
D. phone nacres are expected to play their part in preventing pone thefts
