If you walk slowly through downtown Helsinki during the day, taking in the splendid 19 th century buildings, white boats and noise of passing trams (有轨电车), you will start to understand why it is called a city of two colors: white and blue.
The sea is always present in Helsinki. When you take a walk over the great open space of the central square, you will hear seabirds screaming. When you take the tram, suddenly and unexpectedly, you are faced with a calm, shining blue sea. You may notice that people in Helsinki do not rush about as in other cities. Instead, they walk along the roads, politely letting other people by.
A usual way to see Helsinki for the first time is to start out by the boats. You will walk by the elderly women selling fish and vegetables in the market square and find yourself in front of a beautiful park. You may enjoy a pleasant walk in the park for a few hours and then take the tram. Trams are the perfect way to get around in Helsinki. Watching the old houses, parks, theatres, churches, shops, restaurants and people in the streets, you may have a slightly sad film feeling to it.
The pale summer nights are another wonder in the city. Following the waterfront（滨水区）of the city after sunset, you couldn’t help stopping and listening to the sweet silence, interrupted only by the screaming seabirds and leaving fishing boats.
However, in some way. Helsinki is also the most modern city in northern Europe. You will surely want to visit the white Glass Palace, the modern art museum, and all those extremely popular cafes and design stores.
Helsinki is called a city of two colors mainly because of the colors of its ________.
A．19th century white buildings and boats
B．19th century buildings and passing trams
C．white roads and blue trams
D．old buildings, boats and the sea
The best way to see most of Helsinki is to go ________.
A．by boat B．by bus C．by tram D．on foot
The 19th century buildings, the white Glass Palace and all those popular cafes and design shops show that Helsinki is _________.
A．both western and eastern B．both quiet and noisy
C．both historical and modern D．both old and new
This passage is most likely to be found in _________.
A．a story-book B．a geography textbook
C．a research report D．a travel magazine

The royal family is a part of British history and cultural identity.
Up until the 17th century, people believed that the British king or queen had a “divine(天赐的)right” to rule. This was the idea that God chose the king or queen and that he or she was therefore above the law. However, this idea was challenged during the English Civil War, when King Charles the First was put in prison and then killed in 1649.
So what role does the British royal family have today?
The Queen is head of the UK and the Commonwealth. She has important formal duties that go with her different titles. As Head of State, for example, she represents the UK on visits abroad and invites other world leaders to visit the UK；as Head of the Armed Forces in name, only she can declare when the UK is at war or when a war is over. She has to sign many government and Commonwealth documents every day.
Although the royal family does the work for the UK, there are British people called“anti-monarchists(反君主制者)”who do not believe there should be a royal family. One criticism(批评意见)is that the British people should not have to pay for the royal family with their taxes(税).
Today, the royal family works hard to be relevant(相关的)in the modern world. The Queen still gives a speech to the nation on television at Christmas, but it gets less and less formal every year；now it is even available as a podcast(播客).
In 2005, after graduating from university, Prince William spent time teaching English in Uruguay, the sort of work many ordinary young British people do in their gap years.
【小题1】What can be concluded from the first two paragraphs?
| A．The British king or queen is considered above the law. |
| B．The English Revolution put an end to the British royal family in 1649. |
| C．The British king or queen is no longer believed to rule by divine right. |
| D．The royal family didn’t play an important role in Britain in the 17 th century. |
| A．Traveling around the UK. |
| B．Declaring when the world is at war. |
| C．Inviting other leaders to have dinner with her. |
| D．Signing Commonwealth documents every day. |
| A．Prince William is very popular in the UK |
| B．the royal family is trying to connect better with ordinary people |
| C．Prince William has made an effort to win young people’s admiration |
| D．many young British people do voluntary work |
| A．the royal family doesn’t have to pay taxes |
| B．the British people are all in favor of the royal family |
| C．the British people can talk to the Queen through a podcast |
| D．the royal family attacks republicans through media and press |

National Geographic Society
17 TH and M Streets N.W., Washington D.C．20036 U.S.A.
The year is 1991．But just for a moment you will feel the centuries roll back.
Close your eyes and you can almost see Charlemagne kneeling to receive his crown as Holy Roman Emperor.
Or an ageing Michelangelo standing in the middle of rubble （碎石）, staring at the still unbuilt, sky-size dome （圆顶大厦）above.
You are in St. Peter’s Basilica, heart of one of the most attractive nations in the world …
Dear friend,
Every now and then, you visit a place that leaves a lasting impression – and memories that remain long after you’ve returned home. The Vatican is one of those unforgettable places.
As a devoted traveler, I have always believed that there is no replacement for being there. That is, before I saw National Geographic’s new volume （书卷）with my own eyes.
Inside the Vatican
In some ways it’s better than being there. Two experienced Geographic staff members – award-winning photographer James Stansfield and writer Bart Mcdowell – show you a side of the Vatican that you could never see if you were to visit as an ordinary tourist.
You’ll view sights and treasures that only a few are ever allowed to observe, and have extraordinary opportunity to be close to the Vatican’s museums and ceremonies, and to the people who live and work there.
Examine this magnificent volume – free in your home
You’re invited to reserve this attractive new volume now. Simply return the enclosed Reservation Card and your edition will be shipped for your free examination.
Send no money. I’m confident that once you see this amazing book, you won’t be able to put it down! INSIDE THE VATICAN offers you and your family many hours of delight and attraction.
With no risk, and no requirement to buy, why not take a moment now while you’re thinking of it – and mail the enclosed card?
We look forward to having you join us on this unusual journey.
Sincerely,
Michela English
