分析 本文主要講述了北歐國家--芬蘭，芬蘭有著豐富的森林和水資源，沒有煤和石油，主要是靠森林來生產(chǎn)紙和制造家具以及水力發(fā)電．

解答 25．C  推理判斷題  根據(jù)The northern part of this country is inside the Arctic Circle可知芬蘭的北部在北極圈內，而并非全部，因此A項錯誤；根據(jù)Finland is perhaps the most beautiful and mysterious（神秘的）of the countries of northern Europe可知芬蘭是北歐的國家，而不是靠近北歐的國家，B項錯誤；根據(jù)where almost no trees can grow because of its cold weather and the people use their deer for transport，clothing and food．可知在北極圈由于寒冷，幾乎沒有樹木，故D項不符合事實；從文中的"Finland was conquered by its western neighboring Sweden"可推斷C項正確．
26．B  細節(jié)理解題   根據(jù)In about 1155，F(xiàn)inland was conquered by its western neighbouring Sweden．After a period of rule by Denmark in the 14th century，the Swedes won back independence and power in 1523 under their brave king，可知芬蘭在大約1151年被鄰國瑞典征服；在14世紀時受丹麥統(tǒng)治；1523年瑞典再次統(tǒng)治芬蘭；在拿破侖戰(zhàn)爭期間，芬蘭的統(tǒng)治權最后從瑞典過渡給俄國，蘇俄成立后不久即1919年芬蘭獨立．故選項B正確．
27．A  細節(jié)理解題  根據(jù)During the Napoleonic Wars （1814-1818）Finland was passed finally from Sweden to Russia．The opportunity came in 1917．Shortly after Soviet Russia made peace with Germany，1919 saw the founding of the Finnish Republic．可知俄國在（1814-1818）拿破侖戰(zhàn)爭期間開始統(tǒng)治芬蘭，到1919年芬蘭成為獨立的國家，俄國對芬蘭的統(tǒng)治長達100年，故選項A正確．
28．D  細節(jié)理解題   文中的"…1919 saw the founding of the Finnish Republic"這句話意思是1919年芬蘭共和國成立，因此D項正確．
