Iceland lies in the North Atlantic Ocean． It lies between 63°24′ and 66°33′ N and between 13°30′ and 24°2′ W． It is the second largest island in Europe． It is close to the Arctic Circle（北极圈）yet in fact only one of its northerly islands lies inside． The country has a total area of 103,000 square kilometers and a coastline of about 6,600 km． The island is 300 km wide from north to south, and 500 km across from west to east．
From 1262 to 1944 Iceland was ruled first by Norway and then by Denmark． Centuries of foreign rule, and such things as volcanoes（火山）and the weather, made life very difficult at times for the Icelanders, there was lots of hard work and little change． The situation began to improve during the nineteenth century． Then in 1944 Iceland became an independent republic（独立国家）；since that time it has become a quite rich country where the people enjoy having cars, modern houses and lots of electrical equipment． If you look at the kind of products that Iceland sells to other countries today—fish, meat, wool and so on—it’s easy to see that both the sea and the land are important to Icelanders． This has been true in fact since the time of the first Icelanders—Vikings from Norway who arrived in AD 874．
Some things in the lives of the Icelanders have hardly changed—the Icelandic language, for example, 700 years ago the stories called Sagas were first written down, these can still be read in the old language without much difficulty by Icelandic speakers today．
54． What is the purpose of the passage?
A． To invite people to come and visit Iceland．
B． To introduce something about Iceland．
C． To show the culture of Iceland．
D． To show the long history of Iceland．
55． What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A． There’re great changes in Icelanders’ living conditions．
B． Icelanders sell different kinds of local products abroad．
C The living conditions in Iceland are unsuitable for people to live．
D． The Icelanders work hard to sell their products．
56． Which of the following sentences is NOT true?
A． Iceland is not the largest island in the world．
B． Iceland is a country of many small islands．
C． Iceland is quite a modern country now．
D． Iceland has been an independent republic since Vikings began to live there．
57． What can we infer（推断）from the passage?
A． It is the second largest island in Europe．
B． Great changes have taken place in Iceland since the nineteenth century．
C． The Icelandic language changed a lot over the years．
D． The sea and the land are important to Icelanders．

Is reading better than watching TV? I believe it is． Is reading better than playing video games? I’m not so sure if it is． If learning is important to you, but not necessarily so, and if pleasure is what you want, these activities can be pleasant in their own ways． Reading might be better than many activities if you want to educate yourself and improve your chances of succeeding in your work．
If you’re serious about creating the habit of reading, what’s important is finding a time you can read every day—often that’s early morning or late at night, or both． For others, it might be during their lunch break． You only need to read for 10 to 20 minutes a day to form the habit．
Then, you need to find a place that’s comfortable． Make sure it has good lighting, the temperature is nice and you’re in a good chair． Or you can find some place that you can relax in without falling asleep, although there’s nothing wrong with sleep．
Next, be sure to shut off the TV, Internet, cell phone, radio, or other music, let reading be a quiet time． Mark an “x” on your calendar every day you read, and try to keep your unbroken “x” es going as long as possible． A habit is much easier to get into if it’s something you enjoy, not something you are made to do． So make the time you spend reading a joy． I’ve been a lifelong reader, so the pleasure of a good book is one of my favorite things in the world． I love to lose myself in the world of a book．
| Enjoy reading as much as possible | |
| Why | Reading may bring you more chances if you want to make your life ____74____． |
| How | Finding a time, such as often early morning or late at night, or both, is ____75____． |
| Find something like good lighting, nice temperature and a nice chair to help you read comfortably ____76____ of falling asleep．
____77____ yourself away from the TV, Internet, cell phone, radio, or other music． Get into a good habit by making the time you spend reading a joy． |
|
| My feeling | As a lifelong reader, I lose myself in the world of a book． It ____78____ me great pleasure． |
