Summer in Russia is a special season. It’s warm in most places. But cities, such as Moscow, can be hot sometimes. People in the country don’t use air conditioners(空调) often.
Russians also cool off in other ways. They use their cities’ green spaces for escaping the hot sun, eat ice creams or enjoy glasses of kvas, a Russian drink. Some people would like to drive to their summer dachas for their weekends. Dachas are on the side areas of cities and towns. Some Russians have gardens there. The dacha is a good place to get away from the heat and noise of the city. The family can relax and communicate with nature.
The weather in summer can be changeable(易变的), so it’s good to carry a small umbrella with you even on the sunniest days for sudden rain showers.
The sun in summer is not friendly at all. When you’re in Russia in summer, be sure to remember to wear sunblock(防晒霜). You may be easy to get hurt by the sun. Don’t forget to protect your ears, face and other areas of bare(裸露的) skin.
June, July and August are the most popular travel time. If you travel to Russia in summer, you will be likely doing lots of walking, so bring several pairs of comfortable shoes. Other summertime essentials(必需品) include a pair of sunglasses and a lightweight bag.

【分析】
本题为英语阅读理解题，包含细节理解、词义猜测两类题型。解题思路如下：1. 第1题需定位原文中俄罗斯人解暑的方式，逐一核对选项，排除未提及或不符合的；2. 第2题需结合划线词所在句的上下文语境，推断其含义；3. 第3题需定位原文中关于dachas的描述，匹配正确选项；4. 第4题需将每个选项与原文对应内容逐一比对，判断正误。
【解析】
1. 第1题：细节理解题。根据原文第二段“ They use their cities’ green spaces for escaping the hot sun, eat ice creams or enjoy glasses of kvas...”可知俄罗斯人解暑方式包括利用绿地（对应A选项）、吃冷饮（对应C选项）；第一段提到“People in the country don’t use air conditioners often”，说明空调不是常用的解暑方式，且原文未提及“去凉爽的商场”（B选项），故答案为B。
2. 第2题：词义猜测题。划线词所在句意为“他们利用城市绿地来______炎热的太阳”，结合上下文“cool off（解暑）”的目的，可知是“避开”炎热的太阳，avoiding符合语境，故选C。
3. 第3题：细节理解题。根据原文第二段“The dacha is a good place to get away from the heat and noise of the city. The family can relax and communicate with nature.”可知dacha是享受自然的宜人地方，对应D选项；A、B、C均与原文描述不符，故选D。
