About 45%of the people are of British origin, that is, they or their parents or grandparents, etc, come from British. Nearly 30%a
22、re of French origin. Most of the French Canadians live in province of Quebec.Over the years, people have come to live in Canada from many countries in the world. They are from many countries in the world. They are from most European countries and also from China, besides other Asian countries. Howev
23、er, Canada was not an empty country when the Europeans began to arrive. Canadian Indians lived along the coast, by the rivers and lakes and in forests.

27、o control is the moon. In size it is nearly equal to the area of North and South America. However, it presents a hostile (不友好的) environment. Temperatures range +120 to -150 degrees Centigrade (摄氏). There is no air, and no water.Today there is considerable scientific speculation (思索) about living on
28、the moon. When man will begin life on the moon surface is still not determined. But experts believe that settlement will take place in three steps. First, there will be increasing periods of exploration with temporary shelters (临时住所). These periods will be followed by longer stays with housing under
29、 the surface of the moon and daily necessities brought by the settlers themselves from the earth. Finally, settlements that are self-supporting will be founded.The main job of the early settlers will be to stay alive. They will have to plant crops under huge domes (圆顶屋) to produce food and oxygen an
30、d find water sources. After this is done, the settlers will have time to explore the possibilities of commercial (商业的) development and to make discoveries important to science. The characteristics of the moon that make it bad for human staying alive may make it ideal for certain kinds of manufacturi
31、ng (制造业). Operations requiring a vacuum (真空) or extreme cold are examples. Therefore, industrial diamonds might be produced on the moon.56.

34、s bad for human staying alive, it is very good for _.A. making such things as industrial diamonds B. all kinds of manufactured goodsC. medical operations D. commercial developmentCIt was not until one hundred and fifty years ago that scientists learned about the existence of dinosaurs. Thanks to an
35、English doctor and his wife, the door was opened to this zoological study. Reasoning that the reptiles huge size must have made them terrible creatures, scientists combined two Greek words, “deimos”, meaning “terrible”, and “sauros”, meaning “lizards” , to form the word “dimosaur”.After many years o
36、f study, they determined that these beasts roamed the earth for millions of years, and ceased to exist some sixty million years ago.Unbelievable as it may seem, not all dinosaurs were carnivorous, that is, meat eating. Many were herbivorous, or vegetarians. By reassembling the bones found at excavat
37、ion (发掘) sites, scientists have been able to reconstruct the skeletons (骨架 ) and ;earn a great deal about the dinosaurs living conditions.
