of a miserable，chaotic society，with loads of children，broken homes and absent mothers.But Iceland is the exceptionits citizens are apparently the happiest in the world.New rankings from the United Nations Development Program's Human Development Index rate Iceland as the best country in the world in which to live.Perhaps the country's geographic location contributes to Icelanders' happiness.Located in the middle of the North Atlantic，with Greenland as its nearest neighbor，Iceland is free from the taboos that cause so much distress elsewhere.For instance，people who divorce are not looked down upon by society.Icelanders are offspring (后代) of the Vikings，a north European people who invaded European coasts from the 8th through the 10th century.This tradition of getting out into the world lives on in modernday Iceland.Practically all Icelanders have studied or worked abroad，and most speak English.Perhaps as a result，Iceland's economic policies blend the best of those from Europe and the US to create its own welfare system.“Many of us have lived in the US，and studied there，” said the Icelandic Prime Minister Geir Haarde.“We have both taken from them and found that naturally we share the cando attitudethat if you work hard，anything can be done.”Indeed，the country is rich in writers，painters，film makers and accomplished musicians.There's Sigur Ros，a postrock band，and also a national symphony orchestra that plays to the highest standards all over the world.Half the population appears to have written a book. “Iceland has harsh(惡劣) nature，with its bitter everchanging weather，” said Haraldur Jonsson，a painter，sculptor and video and performance artist.“We cannot escape it.So we find ways.We have to have a rich internal life to fill the empty spaces.”5.It is commonly believed that high birth rate and divorce rate will bring about .A.social problems B.happinessC.a unique welfare system D.modern way of life解析：根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知答案。答案：A6.What does the underlined word “blend” in the fifth paragraph mean？A.Combine. B.Choose.C.Copy. D.Carry.解析：根據(jù)后面的內(nèi)容“from Europe and the US to create its own welfare system”可知答案。答案：A7.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the reason for Icelanders' happiness？A.Geographic location. B.A rich internal life.C.National pride. D.Freedom from taboos.解析：第三段提到了A和D兩項(xiàng)，最后一段提到了B，可知答案選C。答案：C8.What is the most suitable to fill in the blank in the last paragraph？A.to get rid of it B.to have it changedC.to get away from it D.to live with it解析：冰島的氣候條件是無法改變的，人們只能去適應(yīng)它。答案：D.書面表達(dá)下表是部分市民關(guān)于養(yǎng)狗的一些看法，請根據(jù)表中信息寫一篇短文，并就這一問題談?wù)勛约旱目捶āＹ澇煞磳?.可愛，是人類的朋友和伙伴。1.它們的排泄物(waste)污染環(huán)境。2.幫助殘疾人，方便他們的生活。2.咬傷人，帶來許多麻煩。要求：1.詞數(shù)：100左右；2.可適當(dāng)增加細(xì)節(jié)使文章連貫。 參考范文：Recently，people in our city had a discussion about whether it is right to keep a pet dog.Some people think dogs are our loyal friends.For one thing，dogs can keep company with people.For another，they can help people；for example，they can guide the way for the blind.However，some other people disagree.They think dog waste can pollute the environment and some dogs may bite people and cause diseases，which is dangerous to us.In my opinion，people have the right to keep their pet dogs.But at the same time，the dog owners should make sure their pets won't cause trouble to others.111
