The nations only known personality is Santa Claus. Not any more. Finland is becoming a hit as thousands of fashionconscious people discover the latest cold place to become hot.Helsinki is where most firsttime visitors stay, sometimes just for a long weekend. Because more and more people travel with hand luggage only, they can look for new, stylish destinations where they can hang out, eat and buy new stuff to remind themselves and their friends of how stylish they are.But why Helsinki? Isnt the city cold, expensive and dull? Cold, yes. So cold that they heat the pavement in winter, but thats where the bad news ends. Helsinki is cheaper than almost any other major European capital, and there is more than enough to do to fill a long weekend.Buses and trams cost pennies, and bicycles are free. But the best way to see the city is on foot. The Viking Line cruise groups stick to the traditional sightseeing walkabout, the Lutheran Church, Sibeliuss home and the fish and meat market on the docks.Across from the Klub bar is Teatteri, a restaurant designed by Briton Rupert Gardner. No place better illustrates the change Helsinki has undergone.Twenty years ago it was a nightclub called Hot Lips. Walk in today and you could be in London or New York.The countrys furniture and home wares may not be as well known as those of Ikea of Sweden, but the kind of people who get excited by teapots swear Finnish varieties are the best money can buy.A decade after an economic recession that left Finland hunting for money, the countrys capital feels stylishly European. The broad, 19thcentury boulevards, lined with smart stores and cafes, feel highspirited. It is a far cry from Helsinki that was once grim enough for Cold War filmmakers to use it to represent Russia.语篇导读本文主要介绍了如今的Helsinki，它已经成为一座现代化的旅游城市。4This passage is most likely to be found in _.Aa storybookBa geography textbookCa research reportDa travel magazine解析D文章出处题。本文主要介绍了Helsinki的旅游特色，所以最可能出现在旅游杂志上，故选D项。5The best way to see Helsinki is _.Aby boatBby busCon footDby tram解析C细节理解题。根据第四段第二句可知，参观这座城市最好的方式是步行，故选C项。6What can we learn about Helsinki?AIt was once used by filmmakers to represent Russia.BHome wares of Finnish varieties are believed to be most worth buying.CIf you want to see the change Helsinki has gone through, the best place is the Lutheran Church.DFinnish furniture is more famous than that of Ikea of Sweden.解析A细节理解题。根据本文最后一句可知，芬兰曾被拍摄冷战题材影片的电影制作人用来代表俄罗斯，故选A项。7What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean?ANot considering this, you will find Helsinki attractive.BAs it is cold, Helsinki is the place where tourists seldom go.CHelsinki is a place which can bring you good luck.DIf you are unhappy you should go to Helsinki.解析A句义理解题。根据画线部分后面的内容可知，Helsinki除了“冷”这个缺点外，有很多其他优势，故选A项。 完形填空课标话题人与自我生命的意义与价值体裁夹叙夹议文词数 364难度 Last year I broke the record for the oldest person in the world to ride a roller coaster.Im 105, but the doctor agrees Im in good _1_.The roller coaster I rode _2_ quite fast.
