　　国歌：啊！加拿大(1980年7月1日，加拿大政府宣布为正式国歌)；上帝保佑女王(王室颂歌)
　　国树：枫树，加拿大素有“枫叶国”的美誉。
　　国家政要：总督阿德里安娜·克拉克森 (Adrienne Clarkson) ，1999年10月任职；总理保罗·马丁(Paul Martin)，2004年7月宣誓就职。
　　自然地理：面积为9984670平方公里，居世界第二位。位于北美洲北部(除阿拉斯加半岛和格棱兰岛外，整个北半部均为加拿大领土)。东临大西洋，西濒太平洋，南界美国本土，北靠北冰洋。西北与美国的阿拉斯加州接壤，东北隔巴芬湾与格陵兰岛相望。海岸线约长24万多公里。东部为丘陵地带，南部与美国接壤的大湖和圣劳伦斯地区，地势平坦，多盆地。西部为科迪勒拉山区，是加拿大最高的地区，许多山峰在海拔4000米以上。北部为北极群岛，多系丘陵低山。中部为平原区。最高山洛根峰，位于西部的洛基山脉，海拔为5951米。加拿大是世界上湖泊最多的国家之一。因受西风影响，加大部分地区属大陆性温带针叶林气候。东部气温稍低，南部气候适中，西部气候温和湿润，北部为寒带苔原气候。北极群岛，终年严寒。
　　加拿大境内多枫树，每到秋天，满山遍野的枫叶或呈橘黄，或显嫣红，宛如一堆堆燃烧的篝火，因此加拿大有“枫叶之国”的美誉。加拿大国旗上的枫叶代表了加拿大人对枫叶的钟爱。 人口：3149.95万(2002年)。其中，英裔居民占42%，法裔居民约占26.7%，其他欧洲人后裔占13%，土著居民(印第安人、米提人和因纽特人)约占3%，其余为亚洲、拉美、非洲裔等。其中华裔人口已占加拿大总人口的3.5%，成为加拿大最大的少数族裔，即白种人和原住民以外的最大族裔。华裔人口中25%的人是在加拿大本土出生的，其余大部分来自中国大陆、香港和台湾。英语和法语同为官方语言。居民中信奉天主教的占47.3%，信基督教新教的占41.2%。
　　首都：渥太华(Ottawa)，地处安大略省。首都地区(包括安大略省的渥太华市、魁北克省的赫尔市和其周围城镇)人口112.89万(2002年)，面积4662平方公里。主要城市：多伦多、温哥华。
　　行政区划：全国分10个省和三个地区。10个省是：艾伯塔省、不列颠哥伦比亚省、马尼托巴省、新不伦瑞克省、纽芬兰-拉布拉多省、新斯科舍省、安大略省、爱德华王子岛省、魁北克省、萨斯喀彻温省。三个地区是：西北地区、育空地区和努纳武特地区。各省设有省政府和选举产生的省议会。努纳武特地区是1999年4月1日正式设立的，由因纽特人自己管理。
　　简史：加拿大一词出休伦—易洛魁语，意为“村落、小房或棚屋”。1435年法国探险家卡蒂埃到此，问印第安人此地名称，酋长答“加拿大”，意指附近的村落。卡蒂埃误认为是指整个地区，从此便称之为加拿大。另一说法是，1500年葡萄牙探险家科尔特雷尔到此，见到一片荒凉，便说Canada！意为“这儿什么也没有”。印第安人和因纽特人(爱斯基摩人)是加拿大最早的居民。从16世纪起，加拿大沦为法、英殖民地。1756—1763年期间，英、法在加拿大爆发“七年战争”，法国战败，将殖民地割让给英国。1848年英属北美殖民地成立了自治政府。1867年7月1日，英国议会通过“不列颠北美法案”，将加拿大省、新不伦瑞克省和诺瓦斯科舍省合并为一个联邦，成为英国最早的一个自治领，称加拿大自治领。此后的1870年至1949年，其他省也陆续加入联邦。1926年英国承认加拿大的“平等地位”，加拿大始获外交独立权。1931年，加拿大成为英联邦成员国，其议会也获得了同英议会平等的立法权。1967年魁北克人党提出了要求魁北克独立的问题，1976年该党在省选举中获胜。1980年魁北克就独立一事举行了公民投票，结果反对者居多，但该问题并未最后解决。1982年3月英国上院和下院通过《加拿大宪法法案》，4月法案经女王批准生效，加拿大从此获得了立法和修宪的全部权力。
　　政治：加拿大至今没有一部完整的宪法，主要由在各个不同历史时期通过的宪法法案所构成，其中包括1867年在英国议会通过的《不列颠北美法案》、1867年-1975年通过的宪法修正案，以及1982年在加拿大议会通过的《1982年宪法法案》。根据宪法，加拿大实行联邦议会制，国家元首为英国女王，由总督代表女王执掌国家的行政权。总督由总理提命，女王任命。联邦议会是国家最高权力和立法机构，由参议院和众议院组成，参众两院通过的法案由总督签署后成为法律。总督有权召集和解散议会。政府为内阁制，是执行机构。由众议院中占多数席位的政党组阁，其领袖任总理，领导内阁。
　　经济：加拿大是西方七大工业化国家之一，制造业和高科技产业较发达，资源工业、初级制造业和农业也是国民经济的主要支柱。加拿大以贸易立国，对外资、外贸依赖很大。加拿大地域辽阔，森林、矿藏、能源等资源丰富。矿产有60余种，其中镍、锌、铂、石棉的产量居世界首位，铀、金、镉、铋、石膏居世界第二位。铜、铁、铅、钾、硫磺、钴、铬、钼等产量丰富。阿伯塔省富含油沙，可开采的储量为4000亿桶，占全国石油产量的17%，辛克卢德油田为世界最大的油沙矿。已探明的原油储量为80亿桶。森林资源丰富，覆盖面积达440万平方公里，产材林面积286万平方公里，分别占全国领土面积的44%和29%；木材总蓄积量为172.3亿立方米。每年出口大量木材、纤维板和新闻纸。工业以石油、金属冶炼、造纸为主，农业以麦类为主，主要种植小麦、大麦、亚麻、燕麦、油菜籽、玉米等作物。可耕地面积约占全国土地面积16%，其中已耕地面积约6800万公顷，占全国土地面积8%。加领土面积中有89万平方公里由谈水覆盖，淡水资源占世界的9%。渔业很发达，75%的渔产品出口，是世界上最大的鱼产品出口国。加旅游业也十分发达，在世界旅游收入最高的国家中排名第九。 　
　　新闻出版：共有110家日报，英文报纸主要有《多伦多星报》；两家全国性日报《环球邮报》、《国家邮报》；主要法文报纸有《蒙特利尔日报》。杂志有1300种，主要杂志有《麦克林斯》，新闻周刊。主要通讯社有加拿大通讯社，由110家日报共同拥有，成立于1917年。此外还有索瑟姆通讯社和加拿大合众社等。加拿大广播公司是加主要的一家国营的全国性电台、电视广播公司，1936年建立，用英、法语对国内广播，覆盖率达全国人口的99.4%；该公司的国际广播电台于1945年建立，用包括华语在内的11种语言播音。加拿大广播公司电视台拥有由31家电视台组成的英、法语电视网，覆盖率达全国人口的99.2%。此外，主要私营电视台有加拿大电视台(系英语播音的全国性电视台)、环球电视台(系地区性英语电视台)和四季电视台(系地区性法语电视台)。
　　外交：加拿大把维护世界和平与国家安全、促进经济发展、在全球范围内推动民主和尊重人权、宣传加文化价值观置于其对外政策的首位。美国是加拿大的主要盟国，两国关系密切，加历届政府都把对美关系摆在对外政策的优先地位。
　　与中国关系：中加两国人民的友谊源远流长。据历史记载，加拿大和中国的贸易往来始于1780年，到了18世纪末，广州的丝绸、杭州的茶叶和景德镇的瓷器就远销加拿大，不列颠哥伦比亚的皮毛和木材也运销中国。中国民主革命的先驱孙中山先生曾三次到过加拿大的温哥华。加拿大援助中国抗日的伟大国际主义战士白求恩大夫率领医疗队于1938年来到中国的抗日斗争前线，为中国人民的解放事业贡献了自己宝贵的生命。自1970年10月13日，中加两国建交以来。双边关系发展顺利，友好交流频繁，经贸发展迅速。2003年10月，加拿大总理克雷蒂安应邀对中国进行正式访问。2003年12月，温家宝总理对加拿大进行正式访问。2005年1月，加拿大总理马丁对中国进行正式访问，两国发表联合声明。 温哥华
居民人种中有着许多来自世界各地的移民，不论是何种种族，在当地不会有人觉得你是外国人，或许是由于来自世界各地的移民群居于此，让温哥华居民懂得什么是和谐包容，因此观光客对温哥华的第一印象多半是“亲切”。这个连续好几年被选为世界上最适合居住的城市，到底魅力何在?让我们先认识温哥华，然后再发现温哥华。 　　由地理位置来看，温哥华市中心指的是隔开英吉利海湾、伯纳内湾及连接史坦利公园半岛之间的地带。和纽约、旧金山等大城市比起来，温哥华市中心显然小了一些，不过也因如此，各景点相近，市区观光便利。罗伯森街是温哥华市中心逛街的好去处。沿街两侧商店从拿大当地土产，到国际知名精品店一应俱全，此外，逛累了、逛饿了，途中也有许多咖啡厅、各式餐厅，让人吃饱喝足，继续游览。　　盖士镇可说是温哥华的发源地，由于其历史价值，使得现今整个盖士镇社区为历史维护区，宛如19世纪初拓荒时代的街道、建筑，外加许多个性小店，使得盖士镇成为温哥华市区观光的必游景点。由盖士镇往下走，当看到中华门牌楼，就进入中国城的范围。一些中国南北杂货、药材行、餐厅等林立，除了华人会来此用餐之外，当地居民也很喜欢到此逛街、吃饭。位于市中心东侧的耶尔镇为新兴社区，走的是高消费路线，街道不似市中心繁华，不过到温哥华旅游，倒值得前去体会不同风情。 温哥华岛地图，奥克湾位于维多利亚市旁边，是出海观察怪物的地点。 在加拿大和美国的边境线西部，有一个叫做温哥华岛的小岛，它隶属于加拿大的不列颠哥伦比亚省，省会就是我们熟悉的温哥华，在温哥华岛以南地区，有一种非常出名的海怪出没，其实千百年来，美洲印第安人的切诺基部落中就流传着大海蛇的神话，在二十世纪二十年代，这种神秘动物终于有了正式的记录，当时称其为“海巫”。尽管至今没有实物证据证明温哥华岛怪兽的存在，但是关于它的目击报道却数不胜数，而且目击者中不乏严谨之士和高层人员。1932年8月，维多利亚省立图书馆官员F·W·凯普看见了它，第二年10月，不列颠哥伦比亚立法会议员、著名大律师W·H·兰利也见到了怪兽。甚至连在萨斯喀切温省（Saskatchewan）最高皇家法院担任法官超过三十年的詹姆斯·托马斯·布朗先生也宣称他在不足150码的距离看见了那只海怪。Reading and Vocabulary(1)P72-73
