Warming up ‎ Warming up by talking about Canada Hello, everyone. Today we are going to read about Canada. But first I’d like to inform you of some facts about this second largest country in the ‎ world.‎ Best of the World's Best For 7 years in a row (1994-2000 inclusive) the United Nations voted Canada "the best COUNTRY in the world in which to live". In 2001 it was voted 2nd and in 2002 Canada was ranked 3rd. An 8th place ranking in 2003 was disappointing, but Canadians still feel that it is the best!.‎ In January 2000, Vancouver (BC) was voted "the best CITY in the world in which to live" (in a 3-way tie with Zurich & Bern, Switzerland and Vienna, Austria). ‎ Warming up by looking and listening Hi, everyone. Look at the picture and tell me what it is like. Yes, the head of the man looks like the map of Canada. The man, representing Canada, is playing hockey, the national sport of the country Canada.‎ Hockey Canada Strengths ‎4.5 million Canadians are involved in hockey as coaches, players, officials, administrators or direct volunteers (this does not include spectators, parents and occasional volunteers).‎ Research has shown that hockey is the activity of choice of over 2 million Canadians.‎ Over 508,000 players are registered with Hockey Canada for the ‎ 1998-99 season.‎ There are more than 1.5 million games played and 2 million practices every year.‎ There are over 3,000 arenas in Canada.‎ Warming up by giving facts Nice to see you back at school, boys and girls.

What are some words that spring to mind when you think about Canada? Here are some of mine: vast, changing weather, uncertain ‎4. Listening and reading aloud Reading aloud to the recording of the text improves our literacy skills — reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Now please listen and read the text aloud. Pay attention to the pronunciation of each word and the pauses within each sentence.‎ 加拿大太平洋岸的一颗宝石——温哥华市 Vancouver 世界上很少有城市能像卑诗省的温哥华如此秀丽天成、多彩多姿及诸色人种汇聚一堂。温哥华坐落于加拿大西海岸，拥有一百八十万多元化人口，乃加拿大第三大城市，并且是国际商业重镇。‎ 温哥华被海洋、青山及公园绿地所环绕，提供了其它城市难得一见的城区优质生活。它的街道安全洁净；它的海滩、青山易于接近；它的居民亲切友善。 ‎ 温哥华提供琳琅满目的体育、文化、娱乐活动机会。在它四季宜人的气候下，您一定可以了解为何温哥华被喻为 "加拿大太平洋岸的一颗宝石"。‎ ‎5. Reading and underlining A really useful way to help us with our listening is to become aware of 'thought groups' .‎ When we speak, we need to divide speech up into small ‘chunks’ to help the listener understand messages. These chunks or thought groups are groups of words which go together to express an idea or thought. In English, we use pauses and low pitch to mark the end of thought groups.‎ Next you are to read the text, dividing the text into thought groups and circling all the useful expressions or collocations in the passage. Copy them into your notebook after school as homework.‎ Collocations from A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH”‎ on a trip(在旅途中), on the Atlantic coast（在大西洋海岸）, take the aeroplane（乘飞机）, fly from… to…（从……飞行到……）, take the train from… to…（乘火车从……到……）, from west to east（从西到东）, across Canada（横穿加拿大）, cross the whole country（横贯整个国家）, wait for…（等候……）, at the airport（在机场）, take…to…（把……带到……）, catch the train（乘坐火车）, on the way to…（在去……的路上）, see great scenery（看美丽壮观的风景）, on the trip（在旅途中）, go eastward（向东行驶）, pass cities（经过城市）, in less than five days（在不五天的时间里）, from coast to coast（从一个海岸到另一个海岸）, in the warmest part of…（在最热的地方）, be surrounded by…（被……所包围）, on the north（在北边）, ski in the mountains（在山上滑雪）, sail in the harbour（在港湾了扬帆行船）, north of…（……的北边）, settle down in the seat（落座）, look out of the window at the wild scenery（从窗口看到了自然风光）, a mountain goat（野山羊）, a grizzly bear（大灰熊）, a famous Western festival（有名的西方节日）, come from all over…（全来自……）, compete in ~ing（比赛做……）, ride wild horses（驾驭野马）, have a gift for ~ing（有天资/天分做……）, work with…（与……共处）, win…prizes（赢得……奖金）, live within 320 kilometres of the USA border（居住在靠近美国320公里以内的边境地带）, go through…（穿过……）, a ‎ wheat-growing province（种植小麦的省份）, thousands of square kilometers in size（面积有数千平方米）, at the top end of…（在……的最上首）, a busy port（繁忙的港口）, be close to…（接近……）, one-third of…（……三分之一）, rush through…（穿行过……）‎ The Rocky Mountains The Rocky Mountains, the great backbone of North America, extend 5,000 kilometers from New Mexico to Canada. The elevations range from about 1,500 meters along the plains to 4,399 meters, and the widths range from 120 to 650 kilometers. The Rocky Mountains are composed of many mountain ranges with unique ecological features. For example, 20 ranges make up the Rocky Mountains in and adjacent to Wyoming. The natural beauty, abundant wildlife, and fresh water have attracted human inhabitants for the last 10,000-12,000 years.‎ ‎6.
