A new hotel is set to open in a faraway village in northern Sweden,which intends to change the simple treehouse into a world—class hotel for travelers who enjoy special designs.
Treehotel,which lies in Harads about 60 km south of the Arctic Circle,will be made up of four rooms when it opens on July 17th:the Cabin,the Blue Cone,the Nest and the Mirrorcube.
Two more are due to open in October—the UFO and A Room With a View.
“Our goal in five years is to have 24 rooms from 24 different architects(建筑师),”says Treehotel co-founder Kent Lindvall,who came up with the idea along with his wife Bfitta.
The first six rooms were designed by five different architects. The Mirrorcube which stands four meters high and four meters wide has drawn widespread attention as it will be connected to a singletree.
‘‘It’s an interesting building.You cannot find anything like this in the world today.It’s really special,”says Lindvall,as he stands next to the room’s mirrored outer wall.
‘‘Everything will reflect(映照)in this—the trees,the birds,the clouds,the sun,everything.So it should be invisible nearly in the forest.’’
Lindvall says a special film will be put onto the glass which will be seen by birds。
‘‘This is untouched forest and—we want to leave it as it is."says Selberg,another co-founder.
She adds.’’If we’re lucky we might see a bear.I think what’s exciting here is that we’re just 60 km below the Arctic Circle which means there’s a good possibility to have the northern lights in the winter and during the during the summer of course you have the midnight sun.”
The aim of Treehotel is “feel free in a tree” and the experience will cost up to 4,200 Swedish crowns ($555,50)for two guests in the Mirrorcube, which is designed to hold up to four guests.
小题1:What do we know about Treehotel in Harads from the text?
A.The hotel will provide six rooms in July.
B.It’s 60 km away from t11e Arctic Circle.
C.It is specially designed by one architect.

A.It will be joined to one tree only.
B.It is in a distant village in Sweden.
C.It’s designed by a famous architect.
D.Its outer wall is covered with mirror.
小题3:A special film will be used to

Having one of those days or weeks----when everything seems to annoy you? Even
if you do nothing about it, your bad mood will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster---often within a day or two.
Walk it off
Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster(破坏者). A person who is in bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or doing some quick exercises can do wonders towards changing that bad mood.
Tune it out
Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences we’ve had.
Give yourself a pep talk
Stop and listen to what is on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper; the pessimistic (悲观的) messages you’ve been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers. (“ I still don’t have a job” v.s “ I have two interviews next week.”)
Reduce your stress
Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-lifters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing (想象),all of which sound complicated but aren’t. One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to against distress is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no choices. By taking control over certain areas, you realize you’re not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.
Avoid things that won’t improve your mood
TV may not help much: You need to increase your energy level and stimulate(刺激) your mind -----something that the TV show “Neighbors” won’t do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine(咖啡因) contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta, produce a calming effect in people who have a desire for them.
65. We learn from the text that it might help rid us of a bad mood________.
A. to do nothing about it                   B. to take a long walk on the beach
C. to do some exercises with light music     D. to talk it to neighbors
66. Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach?
A. It is not complicated to do so          B. It is an area to be easily controlled
C. It helps beat a bad mood                D. It brings us a new technique
67. TV may not improve your mood because _____.
A. it sometimes shows what happens around you
B. it keeps you stay unmoved
C. it reminds you of eating and drinking
D. it produces a calming effect
68. This text most probably appears in _______
A. a book on physical exercises                B. a doctor’s handbook
C. a notice                                 D. a magazine
