When the first European arrived in the land now called Canada, around 400 years ago, there were about 350,000 native people living there. Most of these people were later forced to live in separate places, called reserves, away from the cities where the Europeans settled.
The French and the British both settled in Canada and fought for the control of it. Finally in 1763 Britain defeated France and Canada became a British colony. Today both English and French are the official languages of Canada. Most French-speakers live in Quebec Province.
Canada became a separate country from Britain in 1867. At that time it had a population of 3.4 million. Today Canada’s population is 30 million as a result of immigration(移民).
The first Chinese immigrated to Canada in the late 1800s. More have recently arrived and like to live in either Toronto, Canada’s largest city, or in Vancouver on the Pacific coast.
Canada is a cold, northern country with long winters, so winter sports are popular. Ice hockey is known as Canada’s national sport. However, Canadians also like to make the most of the short summer and enjoy picnics by the lakes or hiking in the mountains.
Canadians love to travel across their huge country and usually do so by car. But to get to some places you need to take a ferry. Really long journeys from the east to the west coast are taken by train or by plane.
Canadians celebrate many different holidays. One of the most important is Canada Day on July 1st which recalls when Canada became united. Another important day honors Britain’s Queen Victoria. It is called Victoria Day and is held on the last Monday in May. Like the USA, Canada also celebrates Thanksgiving.

An Indian spacecraft's first attempt to make a soft, controlled landing in the moon's south polar region has ended in painful silence: Shortly before touchdown (降落), the robotic lander - part of the Chandrayaan-2 mission - fell out of contact with mission control(航天地面指挥中心). The Indian Space Research Organization says that the spacecraft stopped communicating with Earth when it was within 1.3 miles of the lunar surface. ''The Vikram descent (下降)was as planned, and normal performance was observed, up to an altitude of 2.1 kilometers, '' said Kailasavadivoo Sivan, ISRO's chairman, in a statement roughly half an hour after signal loss. ''The data is being analyzed.''
A successful landing would have made India just the fourth country to touch down anywhere on the lunar (月球的)surface, and only the third nation to operate a robotic rover (巡视器) there. Nevertheless, the Chandrayaan-2 mission's orbiter(航天器) remains safely in lunar orbit, with a year-long scientific mission ahead of it. Like any voyage to a world beyond Earth, Vikram's flight was a risky endeavor, requiring the lander to slow itself down to a near standstill(停止), scan for surface obstacles (障碍物) by itself, and then take steps to avoid them during touchdown. The majority of attempts to land robots on the moon have ended in failure, either during launch or on the way to the surface.
Following its launch on July 22, Chandrayaan-2 spent the last several weeks inching its way to the moon, ultimately entering lunar orbit on August 20. On September 2, Vikram separated from the mission's orbiter, and the newly freed lander began a series of braking maneuvers (刹车操作)to lower its orbit and ready itself for landing. Had things proceeded without a fault, Vikram and Pragyaan - the small solar-powered rover it carried - would have set down on the moon at a latitude of about 70 degrees South, on a highland between Manzinus C and Simpelius N.
This landing site was ''somewhere new that we haven't seen before, so that makes it another area for ground-truthing remote sensing data,'' Clive Neal, a lunar geologist, said in an interview before the landing attempt, ''It was going to certainly enhance our knowledge of what the moon is like in those areas, so it was going to be another very good place for science and exploration.''
1.What happened to the lunar lander according to paragraph 1?
A.It made a soft landing. B.It got data from the lunar surface.
C.It lost contact with Earth. D.It lowered itself at a wrong altitude.
2.Why was the Vikram's flight a risky endeavor?
A.It demanded higher technique.
B.There were not enough funds to support it.
C.Few Indian scientists agreed with the voyage.
D.No country has succeeded in landing robots on the moon.
3.What can we learn about Vikram from the third paragraph?
A.It entered lunar orbit four weeks after its launch.
B.It landed on the moon at an altitude of about 70 degrees South.
C.It separated from the mission's orbiter before entering the lunar orbit.
D.It lowered its orbit by starting the braking maneuvers to prepare for its landing.
4.What's Clive Neal's attitude towards the landing?
A.Doubtful. B.Positive. C.Neutral. D.Negative.

From now, if all goes well, a high-tech spacecraft will land in the South Pole of the moon. There, it will drill 66 feet down into the surface(表面) and collect samples of the mantle(地幔样本) to bring back to the earth.
But before it leaves, it will have a two-part time capsule(时光胶囊): a public part, full of the Earth’s history, and a private part, full of digital(数码的) memory boxes created by individuals(个人). These memory boxes can hold digital files — records of family trees, videos or actual DNA in the form of human hair. Not everyone can have a digital memory box, though. The boxes are only delivered for the people who donate the money to the project.
The project, called Lunar Mission One, has already raised more than half of its £600,000 goal since its launch(启动) just a few days ago. The founders thought that it would succeed because of the attraction of both exploring the moon surface and leaving a time capsule behind. The mission was a technical action, but it was also an emotional one, bringing the excitement of knowing that something humans built on the Earth reached somewhere else in space.
Still, it does seem risky(冒险的) for a person to donate£60 to keep a digital memory box for a project that won’t come true until 2024. What if the project never takes off? What if the technology isn’t good enough? What if those digital memory boxes break on the moon’s surface? And how will anybody ever even know if that happens? Ian Crawford, a professor at Birkbeck College in London and scientific advisor to the mission, says it is not necessary to worry about these. The plan to leave a time capsule on the moon isn’t really about physically leaving something on the moon — it’s more an opportunity to encourage people’s interest in space.
1.Who can have a digital memory box on the moon?
A. A person who donated£60 to the project.
B. A person who has records of family trees.
C. A person who is in charge of the project.
D. A person who is interested in exploring the moon.
2.What can be learned about Lunar Mission One from Paragraph 3?
A. The spacecraft was successfully launched just a few days ago.
B. It will explore the moon surface and leave a time capsule on the moon.
C. It was created because of the excitement of knowing something in space.
D. It was a technical action because it was designed with rich emotion.
3.Why does it seem risky to donate£60 to keep a digital memory box?
A. Because the spacecraft won’t be sent on time.
B. Because the technology isn’t good enough.
C. Because the project won’t come true until 2034.
D. Because there are various possibilities in such a long time.
4.What can be concluded from the last sentence of the passage?
A. Everything about the project will be OK.
B. The time capsule on the moon is not meaningful.
C. The plan to leave a time capsule on the moon is scientific.
D. The message of the project is to call people’s more attention to space.
