Most of these people were later forced to live in separate places, called reserves, away from the cities where the Europeans settled. The French and the British both settled in Canada and fought for the control of it. Finally in 1763 Britain defeated（打败）France and Canada became a British colony. Today both English and French are the official languages of Canada. Most French-speakers live in Quebec Province. Canada became a separate country from Britain in 1867. At that time it had a population of 3.4 million. Today Canadas population is 30 million as a result of immigration（移民）. The first Chinese immigrated to Canada in the late 1800s. More have recently arrived and like to live in either Toronto, Canadas largest city, or in Vancouver on the Pacific coast. Canada is a cold, northern country with long winters, so winter sports are popular. Ice hockey is known as Canadas national sport. However, Canadians also like to make the most of the short summer and enjoy picnics by the lakes or hiking in the mountains. Canadians love to travel across their huge country and usually do so by car. But to get to some places you need to take a ferry. Really long journeys from the east to the west coast are taken by train or by plane. Canadians celebrate many different holidays. One of the most important is Canada Day on July 1st which recalls when Canada became united. Another important day honours Britains Queen Victoria. It is called Victoria Day and is held on the last Monday in May. Like the USA, Canada also celebrates Thanksgiving. 56. The passage is mainly about _. A. the history of CanadaB. the geography of Canada C. basic knowledge about CanadaD. transport in Canada 57. The first Chinese immigrants to Canada _. A. came in 1867B. lived in Toronto and Vancouver C. added up to 30 millionD. arrived in the late nineteenth century 58. We can infer from the first paragraph that _. A. Europeans are the first people to arrive in Canada B. Canada has a history of about 400 years long C. Native Americans were not treated equally in Canada D. Europeans and Native Americans always lived peacefully together 59. Canada Day is _. A. on the last Monday in May B. to celebrate the victory of Britain over France C. like Thanksgiving in the USAD. to recall when Canada became united 60. The underlined part in the fifth paragraph is closest in meaning to _. A. to make full use of B. to offer the best ofC. to give up the biggest joy of D. to work through most ofBMany years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站)about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款台), I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas. I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car stopped behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friends We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card. I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful. Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that Id left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池)was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom. Just how friendly is Friendly Ford? I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said. Thank you - two powerful words. Theyre easy to say and mean so much. 61. The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City_. A. to visit a friendB. to see his parents C. to pay at the cash registerD. to have more gas for his car 62. The words “took off” underlined in Paragraph 2 mean “_”. A. turned off B. moved off C. put up D. set up 63. What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car? A. He had it pulled back to the gas station.B. The couple sent him a business card. C. The couple offered to help him. D. He called his friend for help. 64. The battery of the authors car was dead because_. A. something went wrong with the lightsB. the meeting lasted a whole day C. he forgot to turn off the lightsD. he drove too long a distance 65. By telling his own experiences, the author tries to show_. A. how to write a thank-you letterB. how to deal with car problemsC. the kind-heartedness of older peopleD. the importance of expressing thanksCThere are more than 100 million cars in the United States. An ordinary car travels less than 15 miles from each gallon (加仑) of gas. It travels about 10,000 miles each year. In that time, it uses about 650 gallons of gas. In all, cars use up some 70 billion gallons of gas a year. That comes out to be four-and-a-half million barrels（桶）a day. So the importance of saving gas should be paid enough attention to. And everyone can help save gas. One way is to ride buses. Some could walk to work. Others could ride their bikes. Another way is to share a ride. People could share cars. About one-third of all cars are used for going to and from work. You can go shopping with a friend from time to time. If two people use a car instead of two, they all save. So, there will be fewer cars on the road. The savings on gas around the nation would come to more than one-half million barrels a day. Still another way to save is by cutting out trips one does not need to take. Can you find one car trip per week that could be done by telephone? Can you combine trips? If each car travelled 10 miles less each week, they could save three-and-a-half billion gallons of gas a year. This comes to nearly 5% of the total passenger cars demand for gas. Finally, the way people drive also decides how much fuel they save. Careful drivers may get 20 percent more miles per gallon than ordinary drivers. They obey the 55-mile-per-hour speed limit. If just one gallon of gas were saved each week for each car in the country, a total of five-and-a-half billion gallons could be saved a year. 66. Which of the following statements is true about an ordinary car according to the passage? A. It can run a lot more than 10,000 miles with 650 gallons of gas. B. It cannot run more than 15 miles with only one gallon of gas. C. It can run more than 150 miles with ten gallons of gas. D. It can run 10,000 miles each year with 70 billion gallons of gas. 67. How many ways of saving gas are mentioned in the passage? A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six. 68. Whats the possible meaning of the underlined phrase “cutting out” in the second paragraph? A. Going on.B. Cutting up.C. Reducing.D. Breaking away from. 69. According to the passage, it is possible to save 5% of the total passenger cars demand for gas each year, if _. A. there are fewer cars on the road B. each car travelled 10 miles less each week C. two persons go shopping in a car from time to time D. people use telephones instead of riding cars 70. Whats the main idea of the text? A. Drivers should always share cars and keep their cars in good shape. B. Too much has been talked about the importance of saving gas. C. People should use fewer cars and make good use of telephones.D. Saving gas is important and could be done in several ways.DMountain biking is my favorite sport. Ive been mountain biking (MTB) for over 12 years. For me, finding the right bike is a very important process（过程）. Sometimes its much more important than choosing a car, especially if you compete. Your bike will go through a lot with you (like a good pair of shoes for a runner) and its important to find the right qualities so the experiences are efficient（有效率的）and fun. A very basic thing to think over when looking at a bike is: “Whats the price?” That is often the first question people have, especially beginners who often dont know much about bikes. One of the major contributors to the price of a bike is the frame（骨架）material. It is important that the buyer you has a good idea of what the bike is going to be used for. If youre just riding with the kids on the weekend you neednt choose the very good quality frames and can look at a low cost bike. But if youve been training and youre looking for a bike you can compete with, then you have to take a closer look. Bikes can cost a lot of money. The most expensive bike Ive owned was a 2001 Specialized FSR Enduro Comp which I bought for $1,699. High-end bikes can easily break the $4,000 mark. Frame material affects several features of a bike. They are stiffness（硬度）, weight, and strength（强度）. So its important to get a proper mix of stiffness, weight, and strength that is suitable for y
