Tucked away in the northern woodlands of Iceland     1    (lie) a cozy new spa set to soothe visitors who are looking to enjoy natural hot springs and     2    (green) in equal measure.

Forest Lagoon will provide the services that visitors have come to expect from a modern geothermal spa in Iceland. However, it is the Lagoon's integration with     3     surrounding rock and wooded environment that sets it apart.

Soaking in one of two 104 F infinity pools, visitors can look through the opening of birch, pine and fir trees to a     4    (panorama) fjord vista.

The spa's leisure pools are heated     5     all-natural geothermal water sourced from the mountainside behind it. Originally discovered by construction     6    (crew) in 2014 during an unrelated tunnel project connecting Akureyri and Húsavik, the water has been transformed from a source of headache to a source of relaxation.

    7    (location) in the Vaðlaskógur forest, the spa is a couple minutes’ car drive or a short walk from Akureyri,     8    is about a 40-minute flight or five-hour drive from Reykjavík.

Hrólfur Karl Cela is one of the lead architects working on Forest Lagoon.     9    (work) on designing the Blue Lagoon and GeoSea spas with Reykjavík-based Basalt Architects, he explained the main goal of these projects is integrating     10     into the environment and emphasizing the unique quality of each location.

Linda was a new comer in the neighbourhood. She     1     (stay) all week at home suffering from severe flu when early one morning, there was a knock on the door. Two young ladies were demurely holding leaflets and a TV set model. She impatiently informed them she wasn’t interested in any TV and abruptly shut the door. A few hours later, the same two ladies were back again with homemade chicken soup. Linda was quite taken aback by this lovely gesture. Being new to the area, she didn’t know many neighbors who could assist her with shopping or errands so the gesture     2     (appreciate). How touching this deed was, especially in today’s world     3     sadly, kindness and thoughtfulness seem so rare.

Switzerland is world-famous for its quality chocolate, with its high-end chocolate brands achieving international     1     (recognize). However, people in the Swiss town of Olten, near Zurich, got the surprise of their lives earlier this week,     2     chocolate snow covered the whole town. Some locals wondered if the brown “snow” was     3     unusual consequence of climate change. However, all became clear after the local chocolate maker Lindt explained the brown shower resulted     4     a fault in its cooling system at its factory. This fault was surely special, allowing blowing winds to move up chocolate dust and spread it over the town.

Many parts of the town     5     (cover) in a layer of light brown, milk chocolate-flavoured dust. A representative from Lindt offered to pay for any cleaning services     6     (require) as a result of the event. To date, no one     7     (ask) for help. The spokeswoman set people’s mind at rest with the claim that the cocoa bean powder is     8     (harm) to human health and the environment. She added that factory engineers are working     9     (constant) on repairing the technical problem. The chocolate dust incident led to a lot of jokes on social media. One user posted a comment,     10     (say), “Chocolate snowflakes (雪花) fall from the sky, and it looks like a dream come true.”
