So far，after just 45 minutes in Vancouver，Id met four Vancouverites (温 哥华人)，all of whom were unbelievably friendly and helpful.Before I came to Canada，I was told Canadians were friendly.Well，thats really true. When I arrived at my hotel，it was 4：00 pm and I only had one day to explore Vancouver，so after admiring the harbour views from my hotel room，I had a quick shower，cast one more longing glance at the bed，and then stepped out into the bright Vancouver sunshine. It was a sunny spring day.I planned to visit Stanley Park，just a tenminute walk from my hotel，so I took a bike from Spokes Bicycle Rentals and cycled through the park，stopping every few meters to take photos，admire the wildlife and watch the locals enjoying the sunshine.As a traveler，one can walk，bike，or go roller skating around Vancouvers Stanley Park.Its a popular local hangout (某人常去的地方) whether you want to sunbathe or pose for your wedding photos. I could have hung out in Stanley Park until dusk，but I had to keep moving as two friends and some Vancouver locals were meeting me at the hotel at 6：00 pm.So I had to leave to meet them. If you are interested in my time in Canada，come back to my blog tomorrow. 语篇解读 作者讲述了他在温哥华的一段旅行经历。 21When the writer was on the train to downtown Vancouver，_.

DThe writers most unforgettable experience. 解析： 主旨大意题。作者主要讲述了他在温哥华的旅行经历，故选 B。 答案： B B The first people in Canada crossed the Bering Strait from Asia.In the north the Inuit lived by hunting seals，walruses and whales.They also hunted caribou.On the west coast people hunted deer，bear and beaver.They also 9 fished.On the plains people lived by hunting buffalo.In the east people grew crops of beans，squash，maize and sunflower seeds. The first Europeans to reach Canada were the Vikings.In 986 a Viking called Bjarni Herjolfsson was blown off course by a storm and he spotted a new land.However he sailed away without landing.In 1001 a man named Leif Eriksson landed in the new land，which he named Vinland (it was part of Canada)However Eriksson did not stay permanently.Later the Vikings did establish a colony in North America but they abandoned it because of conflict with the natives. However after the Vikings Canada was forgotten until the end of the 15th century.In 1497 the English king Henry sent an Italian named John Cabot on an expedition across the Atlantic to Newfoundland.Cabot discovered rich fishing waters off the coast of Canada. Then in 1534 and in 153536 a Frenchman named Jacques Cartier (14911557) sailed on two expeditions to Canada.On 10 August 1535 (St Lawrences Day) he sailed into the St Lawrence River，which he named after the saint. However no permanent European settlements were made in Canada until the early 17th century.In 1603 a Frenchman named Samuel de Champlain (15671635) sailed up the St Lawrence River.In 1604 he founded Port Royal in Acadia (Nova Scotia)In 1608 Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec.(The name Quebec is believed to be an Algonquin word meaning a narrow part of a river)In 1642 the French founded Montreal.The new colony in Canada was called New France.By 1685 the population of New France was about 10,000.By 1740 it was 48,000. 语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文，讲述了加拿大人口的构成及城市的逐渐形成。 25In which part of Canada did people grow crops? AIn the north. BIn the east. COn the west coast. DOn the plains. 解析： 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句 In the east people grew crops of beans，squash，maize and sunflower seeds.可知答案。 答案： B 26Who was the first European to reach Canada? ALeif Eriksson. BBjarni Herjolfsson. CJohn Cabot. DSamuel de Champlain. 解析： 细节理解题。根据文章第二段前两句 The first Europeans to reach Canada.called Bjarni Herjolfsson was blown off course by a storm and he 10 spotted a new land.可知 Bjarni Herjolfsson 是最早来到加拿大的欧洲人。 答案： B 27What is the last paragraph mainly about? AEuropeans set foot on Canada. BEuropeans started expeditions. CEuropeans fought against the natives. DEuropeans began to make permanent settlements. 解析： 主旨大意题。文章最后一段第一句为该段的主题句。 答案： D 28What is the best title for the passage? AThe early history of Canada BThe languages of Canada CEuropeans started expeditions DThe war between Europeans and Canadians 解析： 主旨大意题。文章各段落主要讲述了加拿大人口的构成及城市的逐渐形成。 综合来看，文章讲述了加拿大早期的历史。 答案： A C EDMONTON，CANADAThe Etzio is one of the oldest buildings in one of the citys oldest neighbourhoods，but its set to be knocked down.Edmontonians are hoping more can be done to preserve (保留) more of the citys history. “The reason the area is popular in the first place is because its a historic neighbourhood.And I think its important that we preserve that history， ” said Mark Wilson，owner of Vivid Print，a shop on Whyte Avenue at 103 Street. Wilsons business is located in a building two doors down from the Etzio，a building that is more than a century old.But after 117 years on Whyte Avenue，the building is coming down to make way for a new threefloor development. “It has become acceptable to simply pull down old buildings and put up new buildings that look old， ” said Wilson.“The words on the sidewalks here say historic area.Well，its not historic if all the buildings are 10 years old.” Its a move that disappoints Wilson and others on the street who believe more should be done to keep the character of Edmonton. 11 “I think in this area its important because it keeps the flavour of Edmonton，and Edmonton is known for Whyte Ave， ” said a woman on Saturday afternoon. “Some of the old culture should still be there，I think， ” added a man who was walking along the street.“It makes Edmonton unique (独一无二的)Without it，it just becomes another mall or it could be any other city in the world.” Wilsonlooking fondly at the old buildingbelieves a little piece of history is lost with every building thats torn down. After the Etzio building is torn down，the Old Strathcona Hotel and the Ross building will be the only two buildings left from the 1800s. 语篇解读 本文是一则新闻报道。古建筑面临拆除，市民多有不舍。 29Why does Wilson consider the Etzio important? AIt helps him develop his business. BHis neighbours live there. CIts a symbol of history. DHis shop is inside it. 解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的 because its a historic neighbourhood 可 知，Wilson 认为 Etzio 重要是因为它是有着 100 多年悠久历史的古建筑，是历史的见证。 答案： C 30In Wilsons eyes，what will be done to the city is_. Aacceptable Bpopular Cunpleasant Dstrange 解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段 Wilson 说的话和第五段中的 Its a move that disappoints Wilson 可以推测，Wilson 对于拆除 Etzio 这一做法感到不愉快。 答案： C 31What does the underlined word “it” in the text refer to? AThe Etzio building. BThe old culture. CEdmonton. DThe street. 解析： 篇章结构题。倒数第三段中连续出现了四个指代词 it；我们先来分析第一个 it：It makes Edmonton unique，这句中的 It 指代上一句中的 Some of the old culture；接着的这句 Without it，it just becomes another mall or it could be any other city in the world 中的第一个 it 指代的也是 the old culture，第二、三个 it 均 指代 Edmonton。该段的大意为：古老的文化应该保留下来，这些古老的文化使得 Edmonton 很独特；如果没有这些古老的文化，那么 Edmonton 这个地方就会变成另一个商场，或者和 12 世界上的任何一座城市没什么区别。 答案： B 32What can be the best title for the text? A117yearold building to be torn down BNew development being met with disagreements CEdmonton business owner makes a move DOld buildings in Edmonton face an uncertain future 解析： 标题归纳题。本文是一则新闻报道，文章首段就点明了主旨，即：The Etzio is one of the oldest buildings in one of the citys oldest neighbourhoods，but its set to be knocked down。由此可知，A 项作标题统领了全文。 答案： A D An animal that is of great importance to the southeastern coast of Oman is the abalone，a shellfish that has become the center of the nations multimilliondollar industry.Once，abalone shellfish were brought to the surface in the hope that their bodies had beautiful pearls.Today，the shellfish are caught for a different reasonrestaurant menus！The fresh white shellfish has a pleasant taste and is the most highly valued product from Omani waters. Abalone live in shallow (浅的) sea waters.Young abalone live in small groups，holding on to the undersides of rocks，while the adults live in larger groups together in rocky cracks.They can only survive successfully in areas where cold， rich water rises from the sea bed.There，in the shallow，brightly lit conditions，the abalone shellfish live. The environmental requirements for cool water conditions are seldom met and，as a result，abalone fisheries worldwide are very restricted.Until recently，there was a threeyear official order against abalone fishing in Oman and now fishing is only allowed from October 20 to November 15 each year. The coast of Dhofar in Oman is one of the friendly environments that support abalone populations.The southern coast of Oman experiences monsoon (季 风) winds across the surface of the sea from April to September.As these winds blow across the surface， the rich cold water from the depths of the Arabian Sea can easily rise and move towards the coast. After the monsoon period， fishermen jump into the sea，reaching a depth of 10 meters.Groups of up to ten men search for abalone living on rocks and remove 13 the shells using
