Ottawa is the capital of Canada.It is the second largest city in Ontario and the fourth largest city in the country.
The Centre Block is the main building on Parliament Hill (国会山).It is also the location of several ceremonial spaces,such as the Hall of Honor and the Memorial Chamber.The present Centre Block is the second iteration of the building,after the first was destroyed by fire in 1916,and it is one of the most recognizable buildings in Canada.
Downtown Ottawa is the commercial and economic centre of the city.Most of the buildings are office towers.While most of Ottawa's high tech industry is based elsewhere,it has a significant presence in the downtown core.The downtown also contains a number of apartments,hotels,and the older single family homes and townhouses along its edges.
The National Gallery of Canada is one of Canada's premier art galleries.The Gallery has a large and varied collection of paintings,drawings,sculptures and photographs.Although its focus is on Canadian art,it also holds works by some noted American and European artists.
The Rideau Canal is the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America.At the very beginning,the purpose of the Rideau Canal was military,as it was intended to provide a secure supply and communication route between Montreal and the British naval base in Kingston.It remains in use today primarily for pleasure boating,with most of its original structures undamaged.The locks on the system open for navigation in mid May and close in mid October.

Since I was born and brought up in a rural town,I have a great interest in nature.Using the chance of studying abroad in my second year at college,I decided to go to Canada just because I wanted to see the beautiful phenomena there.So after I finished the study program,I went to Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories.
I clearly remember the sixth night in Yellowknife.Suddenly my host mother came to my room around 8∶00 p.m.and told me to change clothes and go outside quickly carrying her camera.
The northern lights were flickering (闪烁) in the sky!I was shocked and just stood there with my mouth open.I forgot to take pictures of the mysterious lights.
Since that night,whenever it was sunny,I went outside at night and looked at the sky.It was so cold that I lost all feeling in my hands and feet.
As I took pictures of the northern lights,I came to find a characteristic movement of the lights.They first appear in the north part of the sky and then they gradually come down to the south part of the sky.After that,suddenly,they come in the middle of the north and south only for a while,which is the time when the best northern lights can be seen.Since it is only a few seconds for the northern lights to come down to the middle of the sky,it is very hard to get good pictures.
The stronger the sun acts,the better and stronger the northern lights flicker in the sky.That's because they come about from the collisions (碰撞)between atmospheric gases and the solar wind.Much more solar wind comes to the earth when the sun is active,which leads to the best northern lights.And the colors of the northern lights depend on the height of the collisions and the kinds of gases.
4.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us
A.Ways to take good pictures.
B.The relationship between the sun and the northern lights.
C.The colors of the northern lights.
D.The time of the best northern lights.
5.Why did the host mother ask the author to go out
A.She wanted to take a picture of him.
B.She wanted to take a walk with him.
C.She wanted to tell him something important.
D.She wanted him to see the northern lights.
6.The author forgot to take pictures after going out because .
A.the host mother didn't remind him to take the camera
B.he was shocked by the wonderful sight
C.the lights flickering in the sky disappeared too soon
D.he lost all feeling in his hands and feet
7.When is the best time to see the northern lights
A.When they appear in the north part of the sky.
B.When they come down to the south part of the sky.
C.When they are between the north and south.
D.When they rise in the east part of the sky.
C
I picked up my two best friends and we were off on a road trip.I had just returned to America from a year abroad in China.So,naturally I wanted to take a trip to Canada.
Montreal,the second largest city in Canada,is a four hour drive from my home in New Hampshire.We felt a thrill as we crossed the border into Canada.It was the first time I had ever driven across an international border.We turned on the radio to try and find some Canadian stations.
After dropping off our bags at our hotel,we were immediately walking down the famous St.Catherine's Street.While we walked,two things surprised us:how cold it was and how well everyone dressed.The streets of Montreal are like a fashion show.Both men and women look like they stepped out of the pages of a magazine.
All of that fashion has to keep them warm since Montreal is so cold.Last year it broke the record for the most snowfall in North America.To hide from the cold we went into a small diner because we wanted to order Poutine,a very popular snack in Montreal.It is French fries covered in cheese and brown gravy (肉汁).It is delicious.
However,we had a hard time ordering the dish since the official language of Montreal is French.It is actually the fifth largest French speaking city in the world.But since the rest of Canada speak English,plenty of people were there to help.
We spent the rest of the weekend going to many historical churches and monuments in Montreal.But at night we'd head to the very modern dance clubs and bars.Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go.
8.Which of the following can NOT be concluded from Paragraphs 3-4
A.The author and his friends couldn't wait to explore the city.
B.The author wasn't used to the weather of Montreal.
C.The citizens from Montreal care much about what they wear.
D.Montreal often holds fashion shows.
9.What can we infer from the passage
A.The author often went to China for a visit.
B.The people they met in the diner were kind and helpful.
C.All the people in the diner were locals.
D.The author went to Montreal on business.
10.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A.The author listened to Canadian radio programmes and chose their first stop as advised.
B.The author took a trip to Montreal-the third largest city in Canada.
C.Montreal broke the record for the most snowfall in the world last year.
D.Montreal is a city which is both traditional and modern.
11.How do you understand the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3
A.The men and women are really the fashion models of a magazine.
B.The portraits of the men and women are printed in the magazine.
C.They are so well dressed that they look like models in a magazine.
D.The men and women like to copy characters in magazines.
D
The first people in Canada crossed the Bering Strait from Asia.In the north the Inuit lived by hunting seals,walruses (海象) and whales.They also hunted caribou (北美驯鹿).On the west coast people hunted deer,bear and beaver (河狸).They also fished.On the plains people lived by hunting buffalo.In the east people grew crops of beans,squash (南瓜),maize (玉米) 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 (殖民地) 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 Ⅶ 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 1535-1536 a Frenchman named Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) sailed on two expeditions to Canada.On 10 August 1535 (St Lawrence's 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 (1567-1635) 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.
12.Who was the first European to reach Canada
A.Leif Eriksson. B.Bjarni Herjolfsson.
C.John Cabot. D.Samuel de Champlain.
13.What is the last paragraph mainly about
A.Europeans set foot on Canada.
B.Europeans started expeditions.
C.Europeans fought against the natives.
D.Europeans began to make permanent settlements.
14.What is the best title for the passage
A.The early history of Canada
B.The languages of Canada
C.Europeans started expeditions
D.The war between Europeans and Canadians
15.In which part of Canada did people grow crops

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Most travellers face the language difficulty in Italy(意大利) nowadays. 1 There are a few things that you should know before you step out of the airport.
There's no such thing as “Italian food”.
In Italy each area has its own personality,its own dialect(方言),and its own food. 2 Get to know what's produced locally and what's in season,and you'll be eating the freshest and best of what that area has to offer.
3
Most Italians pay for things on a day to day basis with cash from their morning coffee to dinner.Those of you who have grown used to paying for milk and bread at the grocery store with a card may find it very difficult to travel.
The waiter isn't being rude when he leaves you alone to eat.
In Italy,after your meal is served,you may not see the waiter at your table again until it's time to clear your plates.This is not the waiter being rude. 4
An empty restaurant doesn't mean the place is bad.
Many times I've gone into restaurants in Italy at what I thought was dinner time only to find the place nearly empty. 5 The dinner hour in many cities doesn't start until at least 8∶00 p.m.Many restaurants in bigger cities and towns will be open earlier than that,but the earlier opening time isn't for the locals.It's for visitors.
A.Cash is king in Italy.
B.Trains are always late in Italy.
C.Later,I learned Italians eat late.
D.If so,travelling to Italy can be an attractive experience.
E.However,it's still a very easy and comfortable country to visit.
F.This is the waiter letting you enjoy your meal as long as you want.
G.It's a shock to those of you who think you've already known what Italian food is.

What we know about other cultures comes to us in many different ways.The opinions we have might have been 1 in school,or the images we have seen in the media.One of the most 2 ways we form these opinions is by meeting people from other countries.
Think of the behaviors of others that you don't like:the loud,rude or mean people that sometimes can 3 your day;people who think they know everything,and will not 4 any other opinions;people who make fun of the way you look,talk or dress.When the people who act like those are tourists,then the impressions and 5 feelings we have can be even greater.
These examples should help 6 your own behavior any time you find yourself a visitor in a different city or country.The way you act will leave a lasting 7 .In many cases,your behavior can either polish up or tarnish (损害) the image of your country.

Next time when you are travelling abroad,be polite and show 14 to other people and cultures. 15 to be goodwill ambassadors (大使) for your country.You are the person others will use to make judgments about all the people in your country.Help make a good impression.

第二节 概要写作(25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Punishing children is a controversial topic.Everybody has different opinions about how to act to correct a child's behavior.Parents,teachers,doctors,and specialists such as psychologists,have disagreements about whether it is good for a child's education to punish him or her.
The word “punish” means different things to different people.Punishment can be physical or emotional.Physical punishment is when the parent hits,slaps or spanks the child.
On the other hand,emotional punishment is when the parent,in order to educate the child,doesn't let him or her watch TV,go to play with his or her friends,or the like.The parent doesn't teach him or her,but still he or she punishes the child.
Although many surveys and studies have been made about what the correct way is to raise a child,nobody knows the answer or the truth.I think it will be very difficult to find the answer or get people to agree.
I think the parents should love their child and give him or her the best education,but at the same time,they should punish the child if he or she deserves it.I think if you love your child,you should be rational when you apply the punishment.It should be reasonable but strict.
The parents' goal is to have in the future a good man or woman in society,so sometimes you should do what is necessary to get your child to behave well.

Dear Tom,
How happy I am to receive your letter.Now I will tell you something about the trip organized by our Students' Union.Some of us preferred to take a bus while others were fond of walking,and finally we were persuaded to cycle.
When we got there,we were greatly impressed by its beautiful view.All kinds of butterflies were flying freely in the valley,the entire mountain was covered with beautiful flowers,and the air there was pleasant to breathe;as a result,we couldn't wait to walk into nature.
Though we were tired,it was the trip that improved our friendship and raised our awareness to care about the environment.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
