    D

    If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.

    Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare(车费) of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.

    The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration（登记） card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.

    The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.

    With so many loopholes （漏洞）in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.

    68． The underlined words in this passage means to “______”。

    A. be ready to help others         B. make good use of one’s friends

    C. be a little ahead of others     D. gain something at other’s loss

    69． Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

    A. While taking a taxi in Finland, you can get off without first paying your fare.

    B. In a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you’re living in the hotel.

    C. The bosses in Finland pay the employees according to registration of their working hours.

    D. The workers are always honest with their working hours.

    70． We can infer from the passage that ______.

    A. the Finnish society is of very high moral level

    B. there are many loopholes in everyday life in Finland

    C. in Finland, most taxi drivers will not charge you anything

    D. everyone in Finland is like a gentleman, for they have faith in themselves

    71． Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

    A. Life in Finland     B. A Society with “Foolish” People

    C.What a Life         D. Honest accounts of the Finns

    C
    Sitting in a dark movie theater with your friends. and a tub of popcorn (H^) sounds like a perfect way to spend a Saturday night, and it could be, if you are willing to share your popcorn with the entire row of moviegoers around you.
    A review of movie-theater popcorn reveals an alarming amount of fat, salt and calories in even the smallest sizes. A large tub of popcorn at Regal Cinemas, for example, holds 20 cups of popcorn and has 1,200 calories, 980 milligrams of sodium (钠) and 60 grams of saturated (饱和的) fat. Adding just a tablespoon of butter adds 130 calories. And do not forget that it comes with free refills.
    Not so hungry? The medium size popcorn, even the small, at 11 cups, delivers 670 calories, 550 milligrams of sodium .and 24 grams of saturated fat. The findings may surprise those who believe it is a relatively healthy snack. In fact, plain air-popped popcorn is low in calories and free of saturated fat. Movie theater popcorn, however, is popped in oil, often coconut oil, which is 90 percent saturated fat. Add salt to it, and your once-healthy snack turns into a health offender.
    One way to make your popcorn healthier? Ask the theater to pop the corn without salt. The best way to make your movie snack healthier, however, would be to skip the popcorn.
    "You could share a tub of popcorn with 10 friends," Dr. Nestle, a professor of nutrition at New York University, said. "Or, what a concept, watch the movie without eating anything."
    64. The review finds that movie theatre popcorn may contain all the following EXCEPT ______.
    A. butter          B. sodium                 C. saturated fat         D. pepper
    65. What does the author think of popcorn prepared in coconut oil?
    A. It is a healthy snack.                        B. It does harm to our health.
    C. It looks like a perfect choice.                       D. It is very nutritious.
    66. Which kind of popcorn causes the least health concern?
    A. Movie theatre popcorn.                                 B. Popcorn sold at Regal Cinemas.
    C. Large size popcorn.                                      D. Plain air-popped popcorn.
    67. What is Dr. Nestle's suggestion to moviegoers?
    A. Avoid eating popcorn.                                  B. Share popcorn with friends.
    C. Not eating anything in the movie theatre.        D. Try eating other kind of food.
