In the evening on September 5th, 1972 a group of "Black September" Arab guerrillas(游击队员) broke into the Israeli building in the Olympic village near Munich where 10,000 athletes were staying. Over 250 plain clothes police, warned of trouble ahead, had been brought into the village, but none of them saw the Arabs climb over the fence. They broke into the Israeli building with machine-guns firing at 5:10 a.m. Some Israeli athletes escaped through the windows and side doors. Nine were taken hostage (人质 ). The guerrillas demanded the Israeli to set free the 200 Palestinians（巴勒斯坦人） held in Israeli prison and a safe road out of Germany. Within hours the Olympic village was surrounded(包围) by 12,000 police. The Olympic Games were stopped. After some time, the guerrillas were told they would be flown with their hostages to an Arab country. They were taken by helicopter to an airport 25 miles from Munich.
Just before midnight the guerrillas and their hostages began to walk along the road to a waiting Boeing 727 plane. Suddenly all the airport lights were turned off and German police opened fire.

查看习题详情和答案>>Located in the forests near the village of Harads in northern Sweden, the Treehotel opened its doors in the summer of 2010 and offers six guest rooms. Owners, Britta and Kent Lindvall, invited designers and architects to create a series of unique tree houses that reflect the growing popularity of ecologically-themed holidays.
There’s the Mirrorcube, a 4× 4 ×4 meter aluminum box in mirrored glass. Accessed via a footbridge, the Cabin is suspended from the surrounding pines on a steep bank, affording views of the Lulea River. Both these rooms sleep two people while the Nest (covered in branches), the Blue Cone (which is actually painted red) and the UFO (a spaceship skewered by pines) all have enough room to sleep a family of four.
The Treehotel was built after they saw a 2008 Swedish documentary (纪录片) called Tradalskaren (The tree lover) that tells the story of three men who build a tree house in an attempt to rediscover their rural roots after years of living in a city.
The Lindvalls, who already owned and ran a nearby guesthouse, saw the chance to create a different kind of holiday experience. “When the film was over, interest in the original tree house grew so we decided to build our own, closer to our place.” Kent Lindvall said, “The plan for next year is five new rooms. We also plan to build a chapel so people can get married up there.”
Open all year round, the Treehotel might attract only the hardiest of souls during the winner as temperatures typically dip to around minus 15 degrees Celsius. But brave travelers will be rewarded with stunning snowy landscapes as well as a “Tree Sauna” and under-floor heating in every room delivered by renewable energy.
67. Britta and Kent Lindvall opened the Treehotel to __________.
A. draw attention to protecting forests
B. meet the tourists’ demand for getting close to nature
C. introduce excellent ideas of designers
D. Promote a peaceful lifestyle for citizens
68. Which of the following rooms suits a couple most?
A. The Nest. B. The UFO.
C. The Cabin. D. The Blue Cone.
69. What can we learn about “Tradalskaren”?
A. It is about Britta and Kent Lindvall’s life experience.
B. It introduces the history of building tree houses.
C. It tells about an experience of returning to nature.
D. It aims to attract holidaymakers to the Treehotel.
70. The underlined word “chapel” may refer to a small ________.
A. supermarket B. church C. clothes shop D. Double room
