I picked up my tw best friends and we were ff n a rad trip. I had just returned t America frm a year abrad in China. S, naturally I wanted t take a trip t Canada.
Mntreal, the secnd largest city in Canada, is a fur-hur drive frm my hme in New Hampshire. We felt a thrill as we crssed the brder int Canada. It was the first time that I had ever driven acrss an internatinal brder. We turned n the radi t try and find sme Canadian statins.
After drpping ff ur bags at ur htel, we were immediately walking dwn the famus Saint Catherine Street. While we walked, tw things surprised us: hw cld it was and hw well everyne dressed. The streets f Mntreal are like a fashin shw. Bth men and wmen lk like they stepped ut f the pages f a magazine.
All f that fashin has t keep them warm since Mntreal is s cld. Last year it brke the recrd fr the mst snwfall in Nrth America. T hide frm the cld we went int a diner because we wanted t rder putine, a very ppular snack in Mntreal. It is French fries cvered in cheese and brwn gravy（肉汁）. It is delicius.
Hwever, we had a hard time rdering the dish since the fficial language f Mntreal is French. It is actually the fifth largest French-speaking city in the wrld. But since almst the rest f Canadians speak English, plenty f peple were there t help.
We spent the rest f the weekend ging t many histrical churches and mnuments in Mntreal. But at night we’d head t the very mdern dance clubs and bars. Mntreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can chse whichever directin he wants t g.

Cities usually have a gd reasn fr being where they are, like a nearby prt r river. Peple settle in these places because they are easy t get t and naturally suited t cmmunicatins and trade. New Yrk City, fr example, is near a large harbur at the muth f the Hudsn River. Over 300 years its ppulatin grew gradually frm 800 peple t 8 millin. But nt all cities develp slwly ver a lng perid f time. Bm twns grw frm nthing almst vernight. In 1896, Dawsn, Canada, was unmapped wilderness（荒野）. But gld was discvered there in 1897, and tw years later, it was ne f the largest cities in the West, with a ppulatin f 30,000.
Dawsn did nt have any f the natural cnveniences f cities like Lndn r Paris. Peple went there fr gld. They travelled ver snw-cvered muntains and sailed hundreds f miles up icy rivers. The path t Dawsn was cvered with thirty feet f wet snw that culd fall withut warning. An avalanche（雪崩） nce clsed the path, killing 63 peple. Fr many wh made it t Dawsn, hwever, the rewards were wrth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 peple wh dug fr gld, 4,000 gt rich. Abut 100 f these stayed rich men fr the rest f their lives.
But n matter hw rich they were, Dawsn was never cmfrtable. Necessities like fd and wd were very expensive. But sn, the gld that Dawsn depended n had all been fund. The city was crwded with disappinted peple with n interest in settling dwn, and when they heard there were new gld discveries in Alaska, they left Dawsn City as quickly as they had cme. Tday, peple still cme and g—t see where the Canadian gld rush happened. Turism is nw the chief industry f Dawsn City—its present ppulatin is 762.
4. What attracted the early settlers t New Yrk City?
A. Its business culture.
B. Its small ppulatin.
C. Its gegraphical psitin.
D. Its favurable climate.

B. One ut f five peple gt rich.
C. Almst everyne gave up.
D. Half f them died.
6. What was the main reasn fr many peple t leave Dawsn?

B. They wanted t try their luck elsewhere.
C. They were unable t stand the winter.

Dn’t g t Kauai. G t any f the ther Hawaiian Islands —Maui, Lanai, the Big Island —but leave Kauai fr us. The weather in Kauai is s unpredictable that smetimes it rains all day —in fact, it’s the secnd-wettest spt n the earth. Yes, there are giant duble rainbws all the time, and the sunlight thrugh the cluds is magical. But if yu are nt interested in these, g smewhere else. Yu just can’t cntrl nature n Kauai, and wh wants t surrender t nature when yu culd be at a fine htel, lying in a cmfrtable chair next t a swimming pl, with fd served upn request?
S what if Kauai prduces surf champins the way Texas prduces cwbys? Mst f is 300 white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless yu cnnect with the lcal peple, the hidden spts are hard t find. While Hanalei is the mst beautiful twn yu’ve ever dreamed f, yu can frget abut discs and clubs. Wrse, it desn’t have ne single fur-star restaurant. What it des have is the riginal drive-thrugh places where yu pass by a rambutan tree（红毛丹树）, and pick a piece f fruit.
Shpping in Kauai? Frget it —unless yu are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved wd bwls. Kauai is nt abut pampering. It’s abut ging natural and finding the nature within yu. It’s a d-it-yurself place that ffers walking alng the cast, driving and swimming in the Pacific Ocean, and lying n the beach.
Dn’t g t Kauai unless yu have a lt f time, because there’s nly ne rad, which can be slightly dull. It winds thrugh the beautiful scenery f waterfalls, rivers flwing int the cean, and tar（芋头） fields. Yu have n chice but t lk at everything, because the speed limit is 35 m. p. h.
If yu’re nt interested in clr, dn’t bther with Kauai, because that’s what yu get —red rads, blue ceans, and a hundred different shades f green. It’s like diving n land. Many peple in Kauai believe that this is Lemuria —a lst island in the Atlantic. Can yu imagine? Thse Hawaiians, surfers, New Agers, and peple wh lve nature and beauty and want a different quality f life —what d they knw, anyway? Frget abut it —yu’re nt ging t like it. G smewhere else. Leave Kauai fr us.
8. After reading the text, we cme t knw that it is ________.
