M: When I say I live in Sweden, people always want to know about the seasons.
W: The seasons?
M: Yeah, you know, how cold it is in winter, what it is like when the days are so short.
W: So what is it like?
M: Well, it is cold, very cold in winter, sometimes as cold as 26 degrees below centigrade. And of course when you go out, you’ll wrap up warm. But inside in the houses it’s always very warm, much warmer than at home. Swedish people always complain that when they visit England, the houses are cold even in a good winter.
W: And what about the darkness?
M: Well, yeah, around Christmas time there’s only one hour of daylight, so. you really look forward to the spring. It is sometimes a bit depressing, but you see the summers are amazing. From May to July, in the North of Sweden, the sun never sets. It’s still light in the midnight. You can walk in the mountains and read a newspaper.
W: Oh, yeah, the land of the midnight sun.
M: That’s right, but it’s wonderful. You want to stay up all night. And the Swedes make the most of it. Often they start work earlier in summer and then leave at about 2 or 3 in the afternoon, so that they can really enjoy the long summer evenings. They like to work hard, but play hard too. I think Londoners work longer hours, but I’m not sure this is a good thing.
Questions 19 to 22 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
19. What do we learn about the man from the conversation?
20. What do Swedish people complain about when they visit England in winter?
21. How does the man describe the short hour of daylight around Christmas in Sweden?
22. What does the man say about the Swedish people?
选项
A、The bad weather.
B、The gloomy winter.
C、The cold houses.
D、The long night.
答案
C
解析
对话中男士明确提到Swedish people always complain…the houses are cold even in a good winter(当瑞典人来英格兰旅游时,他们总是抱怨,即使是在一个比较温暖的冬天英格兰的房间里也还是很冷),由此可知瑞典人抱怨的是the cold houses,故答案为[C]。
