Canada, the second largest country in the world, lies in the north of America. The population of Canada is about 29 million and the capital is Ottawa. The country covers about 9,980,000 square kilometers and six of the world’s 24 time areas (时区) as well.
There are two official languages spoken in Canada: French and English. Many people can speak both English and French. More than 60% of Canadians speak English as their language. About 25% of the Canadians speak French. In one province of Canada where French is the common language, the programmes on TV and radios as well as the teaching in schools are all in French. Today, Chinese has become the first inofficial(非官方的) language in Canada.
Canada’s climate is not as cold all year around as some may believe. In winter, temperatures fall below freezing point throughout most of Canada. In summer, the southern provinces often experience high levels of temperatures that can reach over 30℃ regularly. The weather in Canada is just like the weather in China. It is rather cold in the north while it is fairly warm in the south. Winters in the north last long with snow for half a year. As the cold northern climate, only one-fifth of the land is suitable for farming.
As it is known to all, Canada has one-third of the world’s supply of fresh water. It has many great lakes. There are five great lakes in the south. And there are many others, especially in the north. It is also rich in natural resources, such as coal, oil, natural gas of which Canadians make use to produce energy.
People of northern Canada are called Inuit (因纽特人), who came from Asia and settled in Canada about 4,000 years ago. They used to travel around from place to place with teams of dogs which pulled their baggage. Now, they seldom move. There are about 2,500 Inuit in all. The government has started a new school project in which Inuit teach their own young children. So it is hoped that the way of Inuit life will be kept alive for more centuries.

阅读短文,根据其内容回答问题。
        Many people always say that listening to spoken English is too hard for them. But if you don't
understand what people are saying, how can you talk with them? It may be difficult, but learning by
listening is necessary. It can be done.
        As we know, different people have different pronunciations of the same word. Standard (标准)
pronunciation is important for English speaking as well as for listening. In China, people from one area
may not understand what people from another area are saying because of the different Chinese dialects
(方言). Standard Chinese pronunciation can help people from different places understand each other easily. 
        It is the same with English. If your pronunciation is not standard, it is as hard for other people to
understand you as it is for you to understand them.
        If you want to learn how to listen to English, the following ways are helpful.
        Get some good books with tapes. Do the exercises, from the simple to the difficult, step by step.
        You can also watch English-language films, listen to English-language radio and TV programmes.
        Try to listen every day, even if only for a few minutes. At first you may understand few words.
Don't give up. Just listen.
        Remember to red and speak English every day. It will help you a lot. Every day, spend an hour
reading English. Finally you will notice that you're making progress.
        Talk to English-speaking people as often as possible. They will speak more slowly with you, use
simple words and use body language to help you understand them. Don't be afraid to talk to them. They
won't mind because they may have more trouble to make themselves understood in Chinese.
