SEEING THE TRUE NORTH VIA RAIL：VANCOUVER AND
THE HEART OF CANADA
Li Daiyu and her cousin Liu Qian went to Canada to visit their cousins in Halifax on the Atlantic coast．Rather than① travel by commercial airline② all the way③，they decided to fly④ to Vancouver and then take the train．For both of them，the thought of crossing the whole country by rail was exciting．
Before starting out⑤， they spent a couple of⑥ days in Vancouver, seeing the sights[1]．During their first day, as is typical of Vancouver[2], it rained．Despite the weather[3], they were able to take a boat ride⑦ out into the bay⑧， and later visit an island that had wonderful shops[4]selling crafts and antiques⑨[5]．The next day was clear and mild, and they were pleased to see the beautiful mountains looking out over⑩ the city．Later, they took a pleasant hike in a forest just a short distance away．

The next morning, the two girls arose early to take the train to Lake Louise，passing through the Canadian Rockies．Seen from the train window[6], the mountains and forests of Canada looked massive ．
When the train arrived at the station, they took a taxi to Lake Louise，where the blue water literally took their breath away with its exceptional beauty．They spent the night, and then took a coach bound north through the Canadian Rockies to Jasper．Looking at the beautiful scenery[7], they both agreed that it was the most awesome
journey they had ever taken[8]．In addition to seeing spectacular mountain peaks and forests, one highlight of their trip was being able to see many different creatures[9], including deer, mountain goats ， and even a grizzly bear and an eagle．

From Jasper, they caught the train towards Toronto．One of the train's first stops was in Edmonton, the provincial capital of Alberta, the centre of Canada's huge oil and gas drilling industry．Edmonton is freezing cold in winter, with daily temperatures averaging －10 ℃[10]．Since it can be too cold to go outdoors, Edmonton is home to many shopping malls ．In fact, one of the largest shopping malls in North America is in Edmonton．

From Edmonton, the train headed southeast across the great Canadian Prairie．At school, Daiyu and Liu Qian had learnt that Canada's population is only slightly over thirty-seven million．However, they did not anticipate seeing such an open country, and were truly amazed．They went through two wheat-growing provinces, where they saw a bunch of farms that covered a very large area[11]．

After another day on the train, eventually they were back in an urban area, the city of Winnipeg．From there，they travelled through the night, and woke up in Ontario—a land of forests and lakes．The train thundered on ， through the rolling hills ．The bushes and maple trees outside their windows were red, gold, and orange，and there was frost on the ground, confirming that autumn had arrived in Canada[12]．Night came again, and the train turned south towards Toronto．When they woke up the next morning and pulled back the
curtains ， they could see the wide stretch of Lake Huron—one of the four Great Lakes on Ontario's southern border ．It was not until 9：30 a.m．that they finally reached the capital of Ontario，Toronto．[13] All in all, their trip from Vancouver to Toronto had taken a duration of four days．

坐火车看“真北方”：温哥华与加拿大腹地
李黛予和她的表妹刘倩前往加拿大探望居住在大西洋海岸哈利法克斯市的表亲。她们没有一路乘坐商业航班，而是决定先乘飞机到温哥华，然后再乘坐火车。对她们俩来说，乘坐火车横穿整个国家的想法令人兴奋。
出发前，她们在温哥华待了两天，欣赏当地风光。第一天，温哥华一如往常下雨了。尽管天气不佳，她们仍然乘船进入了海湾，接着游览了一座岛屿。岛上有精致的店铺，出售手工艺品和古董。第二天，天气晴朗，温度适宜，她们看到壮美的群山俯瞰着整座城市，甚是欣喜。随后，她们在不远处的森林中徒步旅行，十分惬意。
次日早晨，两个女孩早早起床，坐上开往路易斯湖的火车，穿越加拿大落基山脉。从车窗往外望去，加拿大的山峦和森林显得雄伟壮观。火车抵达后，她们乘坐出租车前往路易斯湖，那里湛蓝的湖水异常美丽，令她们惊叹不已。她们住了一夜，然后乘坐长途汽车，向北穿越加拿大的落基山脉，来到贾斯珀。看着美丽的风景，两人一致认为这是她们所经历过的最棒的一次旅行。除了欣赏壮丽的山峰和森林，旅程的亮点之一是能看到许多不同的动物，包括鹿、山羊，甚至还有一头灰熊和一只鹰。
她们从贾斯珀坐上了开往多伦多的火车。火车的头几站中有一站是埃德蒙顿，这是阿尔伯塔省的省会，也是加拿大庞大的油气开采业中心。埃德蒙顿的冬天非常寒冷，日平均气温为零下10摄氏度。由于天寒地冻，不适合户外活动，因此埃德蒙顿拥有众多大型购物中心。事实上，北美最大的购物中心之一就在埃德蒙顿。
火车从埃德蒙顿出发，朝东南方向一路驶过加拿大大草原。黛予和刘倩在学校学过，加拿大的人口才刚过3 700万。但两人还是未曾料想能看到如此辽阔的国度，真是惊叹不已。她们穿越两个种植小麦的省份，看到了一片片广阔的农场。
她们在火车上又度过了一天，最终回到了都市区域——温尼伯市。从该市出发，她们连夜前行，当从梦乡中醒来时她们已抵达森林和湖泊密布的安大略省。火车继续轰隆隆地向前行驶，穿过绵延的群山。窗外的灌木丛和枫树林呈红色、金色和橘色，地面覆着一层霜，表明加拿大已进入秋季。夜幕再次降临，火车向南开往多伦多。次日清晨，她们醒来，拉开车窗窗帘，辽阔的休伦湖映入眼帘。休伦湖是安大略省南部边境的四大湖之一。直到上午九点半，她们才终于抵达安大略省的省会多伦多。从温哥华到多伦多，她们的旅行总共历时四天。
