2.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 the registration of their working hours.
D.The workers are always honest with their working hours.
答案与解析:C 考查细节理解。根据第四段的内容,尤其是第三句"Then they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly"可知,老板是根据工人自己所说的工作时长给工人支付工资的,而不是根据登记的时长,所以C项与文意不符,故选C项。
3.We can infer from the passage that ________.
A.the Finnish society is of very high moral (道德的) 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
答案与解析:A 考查理解判断。根据最后一段最后一句,并结合全文内容可知,在芬兰,乘出租车的乘客可以先下车离开,等处理完事情后再付车费;没有在宾馆登记入住的人并不会去宾馆享受免费大餐;工人可以按照自己报的工作时长向老板索要工资。因为芬兰人总是诚实地做每一件事,生活在这样一个社会,每个人都变成了一个真正的"绅士"。据此可以判断,芬兰社会有着很高的道德水平,故A项正确。
