【小題5】farmers
【小題6】capital
【小題7】foreign
【小題8】speak

解析【小題1】開頭第一句意為：瑞典在哪兒?接下來應(yīng)該是：它位于歐洲的北部。所以此空填入lies.
【小題2】此句意為：它是歐洲第四大國，擁有面積45,000平方公里和大約8,500,000人口。故填入population.
【小題3】根據(jù)空格后的with trees可知應(yīng)該用be covered with的結(jié)構(gòu)。故填入covered.
【小題4】根據(jù)下文的...industrialized（工業(yè)化）可知，瑞典是很富裕的國家。而one of the后應(yīng)該用最高級(jí)，故填入richest.
【小題5】根據(jù)上文的...industrialized（工業(yè)化）可知，此句應(yīng)理解為：如今農(nóng)民的人數(shù)不到三分之一。故填入farmers.
【小題6】根據(jù)前文的Stockholm (斯德哥爾摩)可知，此空應(yīng)填入capital(首都).
【小題7】此句意為：英語是學(xué)校的第一外語。故填入foreign.
【小題8】此句意為：很多學(xué)生都會(huì)說兩到三門語言。故填入speak.
【小題9】此句意為：大多數(shù)瑞典人，無論男女老的少多會(huì)說英語。故填入old.
【小題10】此句意為：所以和他們用英語交談不成問題。故填入problem.
