难项分析：
第一处：compass前加a　考查冠词。compass为可数名词，表示泛指要用不定冠词。
第三处：which→that　考查同位语从句的连接词。名词truth后的句子为同位语从句，从句中不缺少成分，且从句意义完整，故用that。
第九处：However→Therefore　考查副词。根据语境可知，此处为因果关系；后面有逗号隔开，故应改为副词Therefore。

Funded (资助) Programs Allow You To
Explore Canada And Learn French
Are you open to exploring Canada for a few weeks, meeting new friends，learning French and participating in unforgettable worthy adventures? Or are you looking for something longer­term where you can dive deep into another language and culture? Explore Programs or Odyssey Program may be right for you!
EXPLORE PROGRAMS
Offered during the spring and summer for people with any skill level in French, Explore Programs are language programs which allow you to discover another region (领域) of Canada while learning French. There is a three­week Explore program (ages 13 to 15) and an Explore program if you're a student of 16 years old or older.
FUNDING
The three­week Explore program: $2,000 (taxable income)．
The Explore program for 16＋ year olds: $2,800 (taxable income)．
The funding covers the major expenses for participating in the program: fees, teaching materials, workshops, food, accommodation, and most of your activities. Apart from personal spending money you will need to cover registration fees and travel expenses.
ELIGIBILITY (资格) CRITERIA
In order to qualify for Explore Programs funding, you must：
—be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident (those studying in Canada on a student visa are not eligible)；
—meet the age requirements by the time your Explore course begins; and have been a full­time student for at least one term during the present school year.
Anybody can participate in Odyssey, also a paid program, but you do need to meet all the other eligibility requirements. There are no French­language­skill requirements to apply for the Odyssey program. A driver's licence is not a requirement for selection. However, in some regions, having a licence is preferable.

(2018·全国卷Ⅲ)Cities usually have a good reason for being where they are, like a nearby port or river. People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness (荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.
Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow­covered mountains and sailed hundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warning. An avalanche (雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About 100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.
But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go—to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.

4．What attracted the early settlers to New York City?
A．Its business culture.
B．Its small population.
C．Its geographical position.
D．Its favourable climate.
答案：C　细节理解题。根据文章第一段中第一、二句，并结合关键信息第三句“New York City, for example, is near a large harbour at the mouth of the Hudson River.”可知，纽约吸引早期移民的原因是它的地理位置，故C正确。
5．What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?
A．Two­thirds of them stayed there.
B．One out of five people got rich.
C．Almost everyone gave up.
D．Half of them died.
答案：B　细节理解题。根据文章第二段倒数第二句“Of the first 20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich.”可知，在最初挖黄金的两万人中有4,000人变富有，所以是五分之一的人变富了，故B正确。
6．What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?
A．They found the city too crowded.
B．They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.
C．They were unable to stand the winter.
D．They were short of food.

7．What is the text mainly about?
A．The rise and fall of a city.
B．The gold rush in Canada.
C．Journeys into the wilderness.

答案：A　主旨大意题。第一段简要介绍城市发展的原因，引出Dawson这一城市的兴起，第二段介绍了该城市兴起的原因，第三段介绍人们选择离开该城市的原因及该城市现在的状况，所以全文叙说了Dawson这个城市的兴衰。故A正确。
Ⅲ.短文改错
Yesterday, our school invited an expert to teach us what to make paper­cuttings. See the expert enter our classroom, we gave him warm welcome. At the first, the expert showed us how to make them. He cut a double­happiness or a paper fish. With our eyes widely open, we watched him curiously. The paper fish looked so beautiful that they couldn't wait to have a try. Under his patient direction, I cut a snow­like picture while others all created their own work beautifully. From this experience I realized that it only took a small step to learned our traditional culture. Most importantly, it is our duty to value our culture and pass them down.

1．what→how　考查疑问词。此处“疑问词＋不定式”结构中，不定式中的动词带有宾语，所以此处表示方式，疑问词表示“怎样，如何”。
2．See→Seeing　考查非谓语动词。we和see之间是主动关系，故用现在分词作状语，所以用Seeing。
3．warm前加a　考查冠词。give sb. a warm welcome为固定短语，意为“热烈欢迎某人”。
4．删除the　考查固定短语。at first是固定搭配，意为“首先”。
5．or→and　考查连词。两个名词并列作宾语，且用在肯定句中，应用and连接。
6．widely→wide　考查副词。wide可以作副词，意为“充分张开地”，而widely作副词，意为“广泛地”。
7．they→we　考查代词。与上文提到的代词we相符，此处表示我们迫不及待地要试一试。
8．work→works　考查名词。此处works意为“作品”。work当“作品”讲时，是可数名词。
9．learned→learn　考查非谓语动词。在动词不定式符号to后面用动词原形。
10．them→it　考查代词。指代前面的culture，是单数名词。
