Canada Day

Since 1982, July 1st has been officially known as Canada Day. Canadians of all ages take part in this festival across the country.

Canada Day is the year’s biggest national party. In many towns and cities, the government organizes a lot of events, often outdoors. These include parades(游行), concerts, festivals,

firework displays and ceremonies for new Canadian citizens(公民).The celebrations often have a patriotic mood. Canada’s national flag, a symbol for Canada Day, can be seen everywhere and a lot of people paint their faces red and white, which are Canada’s national colors. The celebrations in Ottawa, Canada’s capital city, are especially grand and exciting.

In the province of Quebec, many home rentals(租賃)start on July 1st and last for exactly one year, and many people in Quebec spend Canada Day moving from one house to another. So in Quebec, Canada Day is also known as Moving Day.

Many organizations, businesses and stores are closed this day. Only some bookstores, hospitals and gas stations may be open. Post offices are closed, too. As Canada Day falls in the Canadian summer holiday period, all schools are closed as well. In some areas, special services are provided for large events. The concerts, parades and festivals may cause some traffic jams.

任務(wù)型閱讀。)閱讀下面的短文,并根據(jù)短文后的要求做題。

You probably talk to friends more than you talk to your parents. That’s natural. Still, most of us want a parent’s help, advice, and support at home. But talking to the parents may be difficult or terrible---especially when it comes to certain subjects. Here are some suggestions to make it easier.

Talk about everyday stuff---and do it every day. The more you do something, the easier it gets. Talking to parents about everyday stuff builds a bond that can help you discuss something more serious with them later.

Find something to chat (聊天) about each day. Talk about how your team did at the sports meet. Share something one of your teachers said. Even small talk about what’s for dinner can keep your relationship comfortable.

It’s never too late to start. If your relationship with your parents makes you feel nervous, try getting into conversations slowly. Mention the cute thing the dog did. Talk about how well your little sister is doing in math. Chatting with parents every day not only keeps the present relationship strong, it also can help a might-be-worse relationship get better.

When parents feel connected to your daily life, they can be there for you if something really important______.
