If you think it is cold where you are at the moment, then a visit to the Russian village of Oymyakon might just change your mind. The small village is in the heart of Siberia(西伯利亞). The name Oymyakon means “non-freezing water” because of a nearby hot spring, but it is indeed the coldest inhabited(有人居住的) place on the earth.

Oymyakon sits just a few hundred miles from the Arctic Circle(北極圈). The average(平均) temperature remains below 50°C in winter and the lowest temperature there was 67.7°C. This is the lowest recorded temperature in the Northern Hemisphere(北半球). Oymyakon is white in winter, since everything is frozen and covered with thick snow. But it’s also dark—the length of daytime is only three hours.

Because of the weather, people’s life there is inconvenient(不方便的), yet simple and traditional. Most homes still burn coal and wood for heat. When people go outside, they have to wear fur coats to stay warm. They can’t wear glasses, or the glasses will freeze to their face. There are few modern conveniences for them to enjoy. People don’t use mobile phones, because the batteries(電池) cannot work in such low temperatures. Cars can only be placed in heated garages. The ones left outside must keep running, or they won’t restart.

1.Which country does the village Oymyakon lie in?

____________________________________________

2.How far is it from Oymyakon to the Arctic Circle?

____________________________________________

3.Which season has the shortest daytime in the village Oymyakon?

____________________________________________

4.What do the villagers wear when they go outdoors?

____________________________________________

5.Why can’t the mobile phones be used in Oymyakon?

____________________________________________

1.Russia 2.A few hundred miles. 3.Winter. 4.Fur coats 5.Because the batteries cannot work in such low temperatures. 【解析】【主旨大意】本文是一篇說明文，主要介紹了俄羅斯的一個(gè)叫做Oymyakon的小村莊的氣候以及那兒的人們的生活方式。 1.題意：...
