10. Ⅳ．阅读理解。 阅读下列短文，从每题四个选项中，选出一个最佳选项。 A Finaland is perhaps the most beautiful and mysterious(神秘的)of the countries of northern Europe．Two-thirds of its surface is covered with thick forests and among them lie lakes, connected with rivers and canals．The northern part of this country is inside the Arctic Circle, where almost no trees can grow because of its cold weather and the people use their deer to transport clothing and food. The Finnish history began in the Middle Ages．In about 1155, Finland was conquered by it's western neighbour Sweden．After a period of rule by Denmark in the 14th century, the Swedes won back independence and power in 1523 under their brave King．During the Napoleonic Wars (1804～1818) Finland was passed finally from Sweden to Russia．The opportunity came in 1917, when the Russian Revolution brought foreign rule of Finland to an end．Shortly after Soviet Russia made peace with Germany, 1919 saw the founding of the Finnish Republic. The years between the First and Second World Wars were years of progress and growing development．Finland has no coal or oil, and the nation's wealth lies in the timber(木材)from its forests, which supplies material for paper and furniture making, and in the electric power from its water.

11. 51．From the passage, we learn Finland ______. A．lies inside the Arctic Circle B．is next to the countries of northern Europe C．lies east of Sweden D．is entirely covered with forests and lakes 52．In the history, Finland was sequentially(相继地)ruled by ______. A．Sweden, Germany, Denmark and Russia B．Sweden, Denmark, Sweden and Russia C．Sweden, Denmark, Russia and Germany D．Sweden, Russia, Denmark and Russia 53．Finland must have been under the control of ______ for as long as one hundred years or so. A．Russia B．Denmark C．Sweden D．foreign countries 54．Among natural resources, the Finnish people benefit mainly from ______. A．coal and oil B．forests and water C．paper and furniture D．timber and power industry

12. 55．The word“conquered”in the second paragraph means“ ______ ”. A．overcome B．taken possession of by force C．destroyed D．defended B Fish get their oxygen directly from the water．They have organs called gills that take oxygen out of the water, just as your lungs take oxygen out of the air．But water can run out of oxygen, just as air can．So fish can suffocate in water----which means that they can drown. These drownings occur most often in small ponds that will dry up．All the fish that live in the pond are crowded in the remaining water, where they use up all the oxygen in the water, then drown．Fish can also drown if their gills are damaged in a collision with an under-water plant or in a fight with other sea creatures. Weather conditions also account for some drownings．For example, when some fish realize that oxygen supply in the water is getting very low, they rise to the surface and suck air into a sacklike organ called the air bladder．The fish can take oxygen out of the air instead of directly out of the water．But in cold weather, when the surface of the water is frozen, the fish can't reach the air, and so drown.

13. 56．Fish can get oxygen with gills from ______. A．the air B．the water C．the ice D．botn A and B 57．The sentence“But water can run out of oxygen, just as air can”means“ ______ ”. A．But water can run away from oxygen, just as air can B．But there is not enough oxygen in water, just as in air C．But water can be short of oxygen, just as air can D．But oxygen can break away from water, just as from air 58．Gills to fish are like ______ to human beings. A．Hearts B．Pulses C．Mouths D．lungs 59．The fish in a small pond can drown since ______. A．the oxygen supply in the water is getting low B．there is not enough remaining water in the pond C．the oxygen in the water is used up D．the fish in the pond are very crowded 60．According to the passage, which statement is right? A．Fish rise to the water surface in order to take oxygen out of the water. B．If their gills are damaged in a collision or in a fight with other animals, fish can also drown. C．Their air bladders can be used to get oxygen by fish both in the water and in the air. D．Fish can still suffocate in cold weather if they can suck air into their air bladders. Ⅴ．短文改错。
