Unit 3 Love Your Neighbor口语话题1.Think about your neighborhood. What would make it:1) safer?Lectures should be given to tell people how to prevent fire, theft and other dangers. Besides, the police should make sure the streets are safe – not only from crime but also from traffic accidents.2) more beautiful?I think we should plant more trees and flowers in the community. In addition, we should discipline our own behavior and should not litter garbage everywhere or draw on the buildings.3) more interesting?More entertainment activities should be held to draw the interest of people. Meanwhile, don’t forget the children. We should also provide them with facilities to give them fun and joy.4) better for your health?I think we should build a community gym providing a variety of affordable exercise options. Besides, activities should be conducted to help people quit smoking or excessive drinking.5) more of a community?I’d really like to see a good shopping mall, where people can meet, get to know each other and entertain themselves.2.Do you know your neighbors? How well do you know them?Yes, I know my neighbors very well. We have been friends for many years and often invite each other for family dinners.//Actually, I don’t know my neighbors very well. It’s difficult for people living in apartments to know their next-door neighbors nowadays. We may nod at each other or say hi when meeting in the building but never have a long conversation. I even don’t know what they do or where they work.3.What do you think makes a good / bad neighbor?A good neighbor is someone you can trust, depend on and share your happiness and grief,just like one of your family members. / A bad and inconsiderate neighbor makes much noise late at night, throws rubbish anywhere in the doorway, and never cares about what others feel.4.Which websites do you use regularly? Which websites do you use occasionally? Whichwebsites do you never use?The websites I use regularly include search engines, news sites, blogs, Wiki and social networking sites. I use these websites almost every day to get information I need and share things about myself. As to the types of websites such as photo sharing websites and travel sites, I only visit them occasionally. The websites I never use include rating sites, dating sites, and corporate websites.5.What do you think are the similarities and differences between an onlinecommunity and a real community?I think there are similarities as well as differences between an online community and areal community. On the one hand, similar to a real community, an online community allows you to chat with people online, or send messages to one another. You can also share, discuss, or even enjoy various entertainments together. In that sense, an online community is just similar to a real community. On the other hand, there are also many clear differences. Unlike a real community, an online community provides all the communication through the Internet rather than any personal contact. Different from that in a real community, you may not know who you are talking to in an online community, which to some extent will ease your anxiety you may have in a real communication. What’s more, an online community breaks the barrier of distance and may involve people from different parts of the world, which is significantly different from a real community./To me, a community is a group of people having common interests. In this sense, a real community and a virtual community are similar. However, they are different in many aspects. I think a virtual community has more advantages than a real community. A virtual community may enable people from different parts of the world to share their ideas, opinions, beliefs, hobbies, etc. through the Internet.What’s more, it allows immediate interaction among members of the community. By contrast, the interaction in a real community is often confined to people around you, and sometimes it is slow and inconvenient.6.What are the benefits of online communities?Online communities provide another chance for people to communicate with each other.They do things without going out, and this saves time, money, energy and natural resources.Furthermore, through online communities, people can sometimes do what they can’t do in real communities. For example, a guy who may be shy and quiet in the eyes of his friends and families may become open and talkative in online communities, totally different from what he is like in real communities.7.What are the possible dangers or problems if people spend a lot of time in onlinecommunities?If people spend a lot of time in online communities, they will be greatly affected physically, mentally and emotionally. They may become inactive, slow in memorizing things, as well as addicted to the Internet and confuse the online communities with the real ones, thus having difficulties in communicating with other people around them.8.Would you like to visit Anuta(阿努塔,太平洋上一个海岛)? Why or why not?•I like traveling a lot, and I prefer going to places like Anuta. Though underdeveloped and isolated, it has not been damaged by industrialization and civilization.•I don’t want to visit such underdeveloped and uncivilized places. People there may be rude and impolite. And the food may also be raw and not attractive. Moreover, there are no modern facilities.9.What can the modern world learn from places like Anuta?Anutan society emphasizes the value of collaboration. Places like Anuta show us how human beings should coexist with nature and protect their environment, traditions and customs.These are what the modern world can learn from places like Anuta.10. What will happen to the local community of Anuta if more and more tourists visit there?I think a lot of changes will occur if more and more tourists flock there. On the one hand, the tour industry would bring local people higher income and more opportunities for employment. On the other hand, it will cause increasing damage to their environment and bring about changes in the values and lifestyles of local community.10.Imagine that you were the President of the Maldives. What would you do if you had to starta new community?As the President of the Maldives, I have to start a brand-new community. People in my country are used to living on islands, so I’d probably go to find a new island, a much bigger island. If we have a bigger island far above sea level, we won’t have the problem of moving again.We are going to have a very large community, since all people now have to live on one single island. This new community is different from the old one, so I think we should draw up some new laws, although most old laws will remain unchanged. Since my people are living in different small islands, their customs might vary slightly from one another. Now we are going to come to a big island and live in a brand-new community. I think all the special customs of different islands will gradually merge together to form totally new ones. And the new customs will bind us together firmly to bright about a more harmonious community.。

But she didn’t turn up. She could be with her friends right now laughing at said she would be there at seveno’clock, and he thought she would keep her word. He had looked forwardto meeting her all day, and now h e was alone with his roses and chocolates, like a fool. Well, he was not going to hold his breath for her to apologize. He would drown his sadness in coffee.It was obvious that the manager of the coffee shop was waiting for Li Fang to leave-he wiped the tables, then sat down and turned on the TV-just what Li Fang needed! A sad Chinese story about lost love.The granddaughter of the Goddess of Heaven visted the earth. Her name w as Zhinü,the weaving girl. Wh ile she was on earth she met the herd boy Niulang and they fell in love.(“Just like me a nd Hu Jin,”thought Li Fang.)They got married secretly, and they were very happy.(“We could be like that,”thought Li Fang.)When the Goddess of Heaven knew that her granddaughter was married to a human, she became very angry and made the weaving girl return to tried to follow her, but the river of stars,theMilly Way, stopped that Zhinü w as heart-broken, her grandmother finallydecided to let the couple cross the Milky Way t o meet once a year. Magpies make a bridge of their wings so the couple can cross the river to meeton the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. People in China hope thatthe weather will be fine on that day, because if it is raining, it meansthat Zh inü is weeping and the couple won’t be able to meet.The announcer said,”This is the story of Qiqiao foreigners hear aboutthe story, they call it a Chinese Valentine’s ’s a fine day today, soI hope you can all meet the one you love.”As Li Fang set of f for home, he thought,”I guess Hu Jin doesn’t love me .I’ll just throw these flowers and chocolates away. I don’t want them to remind me of her.” So he did.As he sadly passed the tea shop on the corner on his way home, he hearda voice calling him. Ther e was Hu Jin waving at him and calling , “why are you so late?I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!And I have agift for you!”What would he do? He had thrown away her Valentine gifts!She would never forgive him. This would not be a happy Valentine’ｓ Day!必修3 UNIT2COME AND EAT HERE (1)Wang Peng sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange morning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of barbecued mutton kebabs,roast pork, stir-flied vegetables and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. By now his restaurant ought to be full of people. Butnot today! Why was that? What couldhave happened? He thought of his mutton, beef and bacon cooked in thehottest, finest oil. His cola was sugary and cold, and his ice cream wasmade of milk, cream and delicious fruit. "Nothing could be better," hethought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Chang hurrying by. "Hello, Lao Li,"he called. "Your usual?" But Li Chang seemed not to hear. What was thematter? Something terrible must have happened if Li Chang was not coming to eat in his restaurant as he always did.Wang Peng followed Li Chang into a new small restaurant. He saw asign in the window.Tired of all that fat? Want to lose weight?Come inside Yong Hui’s slimming restaurant.Only slimming foods served here.Make yourself thin again!Curiosity drove Wang Peng inside. It was full of people. The hostess, a very thin lady, came f orward. "Welcome," she said. "My name i s Yong Hui. I'll help you lose weight and be fit in two weeks if you eat here everyday." Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng. There were few choices of foodand drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit andwater. Wang Peng was amazed a t this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant! He could not believe his eyes.He threw down the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thoughtabout his own menu. Did it make people fat? Perhaps he should go to thelibrary and find out. He could not have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!At the library Wang Peng was surprised to find that his restaurantserved far too much fat and Yong Hui’s far too little. Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Hui’s food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. They would become t ired very quickly. Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back home. Perhaps with a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back. So he wrote: Want to feel fit and energetic?Come and eat here! Discounts today!Our food gives you energy all day!The competition between the two restaurants was on!COME AND EAT HERE(2)A week later, Wang Peng' s restaurant was nearly full and he felthappier. Perhaps he would be able to earn his living after all and nothave to close his restaurant. He did not look forward to being in debtbecause his restaurant was no longer popular. He smiled as he welcomedsome c ustomers warmly at the door but the smile left his face when he saw Yong Hui walking in. She did not look happy but glared at him. " May Iask what you were doing in my r estaurant the other day? I thought you were a new customer and now I know that you only came t o spy on me a nd my menu," she shouted. " Please excuse me," he calmly explained," I wanted to knowwhere all my c ustomers had gone last week. I followed one of them and found them in your restaurant. I don' t want to upset you, but I found your menu so limited that I stopped worrying and started advertising the benefitsof my food. Why don' t you sit down and try a meal?"Yong Hui agreed to stay and soon they were both enjoying dumplingsand breast of chicken cooked with garlic. When they were served the icecream,Yong Hui began to look ill. "I feel sick with all this fat and heavy food,"she said,"I miss my vegetables and fruit. "Wang Peng was enjoyinga second plate of dumplings so he sighed. " Yes," he added," and I wouldmiss my dumplings and fatty pork. Don't you get tired quickly?""Well,Ido have to rest a lot,"admitted Yong Hui. "But don't you think it wouldbe better if you were a bit thinner? I’m sure you ' d feel much h ealthier."They began to talk about menus and balanced diets. " According to my research, neither your restaurant nor mine offers a balanced diet," explained Wang Peng. " I don' t offer enough fibre and you don' t offerenough body-building and energy-giving food. Perhaps we ought to combine our ideas and provide a balanced menu w ith food full of energy and fibre. " So that is what they did. They served raw vegetables with the hamburgers and boiled the potatoes rather than frying them. They served fresh fruit with the ice cream. In this way they cut down the fat and increased thefibre in the meal. Their balanced diets became- such a success that before long Wang Peng became s limmer and Yong Hui put on more weight. After some time the two found that their business cooperation had turned into apersonal one. Finally they got married and lived happily ever after!必修3 Unit 3THE MILLION POUND BANK NOTEAct I, Scene 3NARRATOR: It is the summer o f 1903. Two o ld and wealthy brothers, Roderick and Oliver, have made a bet. Oliver believes that with a million poundbank note a man could survive a month in London. His brother Roderickdoubts it. At this moment, they see a penniless young man wandering onthe pavement outside their house. It is Henry Adams, an American businessman, who is lost in London and does not know what he should do. RODERICK: Young man, would you step inside a moment, please?HENRY: Who? Me, sir?RODERICK: Yes, you.OLIVER: Through the front door on your left.HENRY: (A servant opens a door) Thanks.SERVANT: Good morning, sir. Would you please come in? Permit me t o lead the way, sir.OLIVER: (Henry enters) Thank you, James. That will be all.RODERICK: How do you do, Mr ... er ...?HENRY: Adams. Henry Adams.OLIVER: Come and sit down, Mr Adams.HENRY: Thank you.RODERICK: You're an American?HENRY: That's right, from San Francisco.RODERICK: How well do you know London?HENRY: Not at all, it's my first trip here.RODERICK: I wonder, Mr Adams, if you'd mind us asking a few questions. HENRY: Not at all. Go right ahead.RODERICK: May we ask what you're doing in this country and what yourplans are?HENRY: Well, I can't say that I have any plans. I'm hoping tofind work. As a matter of fact, I landed in Britain by accident.OLIVER: How is that possible?HENRY: Well, you see, back home I had my o wn boat. About a month ago, I was sailing out of the bay ... (his eyes stare at what is left ofthe brother's dinner on table)OLIVER: Well, go on.HENRY: Oh, yes. Well, towards nightfall I found myself carriedout to sea by a strong wind. It was all my fault. I didn't know whetherI could survive until morning. The next morning I'd just about given myself up for lost when I was spotted by a ship.OLIVER: And it was the ship that brought you to England.HENRY: Yes. The fact is that I earned my passage by working asan unpaid hand, which accounts for my appearance. I went to the American embassy to seek help, but ... (The brothers smile at each other.)RODERICK: Well, you mustn't worry about that. It's an advantage.HENRY: I'm afraid I don't quite follow you, sir.RODERICK: Tell us, Mr Adams, what sort of work did you do in America? HENRY: I worked for a mining company. Could you offer me somekind of work here?RODERICK: Patience, Mr Adams. If you don't mind, may I ask you how much money you have?HENRY: Well, to be honest, I have none.OLIVER: (happily) What luck! Brother, what luck! (claps his hands together)HENRY: Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me! On thecontrary, in fact. If this is your idea of some k ind of joke, I don't think it's very funny. (Henry stands up to leave) Now if you'll excuse me, Ithink I'll be on my way.RODERICK: Please don't go, Mr Adams~ You mustn't think we don't careabout you. Oliver, give him the letter.OLIVER: Yes, the letter. (gets it from a desk and gives it to Henry like a gift) The letter.HENRY: (taking it carefully) For me?RODERICK: For you. (Henry starts to open it) Oh, no, you mustn't openit. Not yet. You can't open it until two o'clock.HENRY: Oh, this is silly.RODERICK: Not silly. There's money i n it. (calls to the servant) James? HENRY: Oh, no. I don't want your charity. I just want an honestjob.RODERICK: We know you're hard-working. That's why we've given you the letter. James, show Mr Adams out.OLIVER: Good luck, Mr Adams.HENRY: Well, why don't you explain what this is all about?RODERICK: You'll soon know. (looks at the clock) In exactly an hour anda half.SERVANT: This way, sir.RODERICK: Mr Adams, not until 2 o'clock. Promise?HENRY: Promise. Goodbye.THE MILLION POUND BANK NOTEAct I, Scene 4(Outside a restaurant Henry looks at the envelope without opening it and decides to go in.

(to the waiter) Take this gentleman's order, Horace.HENRY: (after sitting down and putting the letter on the table) I'dlike some h am a nd eggs and a nice big steak. Make i t extra thick.

(The waiter leaves and soon returns with all the food.)HOSTESS: My goodness! Why, look at him. He eats like a wolf.OWNER: We'll see if he's clever as a wolf, eh?HENRY: (having just finished every bit of food) Ah, waiter. (waiterreturns) Same thing again, please. Oh, and another beer.WAITER: Again? Everything?HENRY: Yes, that's right. (sees the look on the waiter's face) Anything wrong?WAITER: No, not at all. (to the owner) He's asked for more of the same.

That's two orders of ham and eggs, two extra thick steaks, two large glasses of beer, twocups of coffee and two desserts.HENRY: (looking at the clock on the wall) Would you mind waiting just a few minutes?WAITER: (in a rude manner) What's there to wait for?OWNER: All right, Horace. I'll take care of this.HENRY: (to owner) That was a wonderful meal.

Now perhaps, sir, if you pay your billI can help the other customers.HENRY: (looking at the clock on the wall again) Well, I see it's twoo'clock. (he opens the envelope and holds a million pound bank note inhis hands. Henry is surprised but the owner and waiter are shocked) I'mvery sorry. But ... I ... I don't have anything smaller.OWNER: (still shocked and nervous) Well .. er ... just one moment.Maggie, look! (the hostess screams, the other customers look at her andshe puts a hand to her mouth) Do you think it's genuine?HOSTESS: Oh, dear, I don't know. I simply don't know.OWNER: Well, I did hear that the Bank of England had issued two notesin this amount ... Anyway, I don't think it can be a fake. People wouldpay too much attention to a bank note of this amount. No thief would want that to happen.HOSTESS: But he's in rags!OWNER: Perhaps he's a very strange, rich man. (as if he has discovered something for the first time) Why, yes! That must be it!HOSTESS: (hits her husband's arm) And you put him in the back of therestaurant! Go and see him at once.OWNER: (to Henry) I'm so sorry, sir, so sorry, but I cannot change this bank note.HENRY: But it's all I have on me.OWNER: Oh, please, don't worry, sir. Doesn't matter at all. We're sovery glad that you even entered our little eating place. Indeed, sir, Ihope you'll come here whenever you like.HENRY: Well, that's very kind of you.OWNER: Kind, sir? No, it's kind of you. You must come w henever you want and have whatever you like. Just having you sit here is a great honour!As for the bill, sir, please forget it.HENRY: Forget it? Well ... thank you very much. That's very nice ofyou.OWNER: Oh, it's for us to thank you, sir and I do, sir, from the bottom of my heart. (The owner, hostess and waiter all bow as Henry leaves.)必修3 Unit 4HOW LIFE BEGAN ON THE EARTHNo one knows exactly how the earth began, as it happened so long ago. However, according to a widely accepted theory, the universe beganwith a "Big Bang" that threw matter in all that, atoms began to form and combine to create stars and other bodies.For several billion years after the "Big Bang", the earth wasstill just a cloud of dust. What it was to become was uncertain untilbetween and billion years ago whenthe dust settled into a solid globe. The earth became so violent that itwas not clear whether the shape would last or not. It exploded loudly with fire and rock. They were intime to produce carbon, nitrogen, water vapour and other gases, which were to make the earth's atmosphere. What is even more important is that asthe earth cooled down, waterbegan to appear on its surface.Water had also appeared on other planets like Mars but, unlikethe earth, it had disappeared later. It was not immediately obvious that water was to be fundamental to the development of life. What many scientists believe is that the continued presence of water allowed theearth to dissolve harmful gases and acids into the oceans and seas. Thisproduced a chain reaction, which made it possible for life to develop.Many millions of years later, the first extremely small plantsbegan to appear on the surface of the water. They multiplied and filledthe oceans and seas with oxygen, which encouraged the later developmentof early shellfish and all sorts of fish. Next, green plants began to grow on land. They were followed in time by land animals. Some were insects.Others, called amphibians, were able to live on land as well as in thewater. Later when the plants grew into forests, reptiles appeared for the first time. They produced young enerally by laying eggs. After that, some huge animals, called dinosaurs, developed. They laid eggs too and existed on the earth for more than 140 million years. However,65 million years ago the age of the dinosaurs ended. Why they suddenly disappeared still remains a mystery. This disappearance made p ossible the rise of mammals on the earth. These animals were different from all life forms in the past, because they gave birth to young baby animals andproduced milk to feed them.Finally about million years ago some s mall clever animals, now with hands and feet, appeared and spread all over the earth. Thus theyhave, in their turn, become t he most important animals on the planet. But they are not looking after the earth very well. They are putting too much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which prevents heat from escaping from the earth into space. As a result of this, many scientists believe theearth may b ecome too hot to live on. So whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problemcan be solved.A VISIT TO THE MOONLast month I was lucky enough to have a chance to make a trip intospace with my friend Li Yanping, an astronomer. We visited the moon inour spaceship!Before we l eft, Li Yanping explained to me t hat the force of gravity would change three times on our journey and that the first change wouldbe the most powerful. Then we were off. As the rocket rose into the air,we were pushed back into our seats because we were trying to escape thepull of the earth's gravity. It was so hard that we could not say anything to each other. Gradually the weight lessened and I was able to talk tohim. "Why is the spaceship not falling back to the earth? On the earthif I fall from a tree I will fall to the ground." I asked. "We are toofar from the earth now to feel its pull," he explained, "so we feel asif there is no gravity at all. When we get closer to the moon, we shallfeel its gravity pulling us, but it will not be as strong a pull as theearth's." I cheered up immediately and floated weightlessly around in our spaceship cabin watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger.When we got there, I wanted to explore immediately. "Come on," Isaid. "If you are right, my mass will be less than on the earth becausethe moon is smaller and I will be able to move more freely. I might evengrow taller if I stay here long enough. I shall certainly weigh less!"I laughed and climbed down the steps from the spaceship. But when I tried to step forward, I found I was carried twice as far as on the earth andfell over. "Oh dear," I cried, "walking does need a bit of practice nowthat gravity has changed." After a while I got the hang of it and we began to enjoy ourselves.Leaving the moon's gravity was not as painful as leaving the earth's. But returning to the earth was very frightening. We watched, amazed asfire broke out on the outside of the spaceship as the earth's gravityincreased. Again we were pushed hard into our seats as we came back toland. "That was very exhausting but very exciting too," I said. "Now Iknow much m ore about gravity! Do you think we could visit some s tars next time?" "Of course," he smiled, "which star would you like to go to?"必修3 Unit 5A TRIP ON "THE TRUE NORTH"Li Daiyu and her cousin Liu Qian were on a trip to Canada to visit their cousins in Montreal on the Atlantic coast. Rather than take the aeroplane all the way, they decided to fly to Vancouver and then take the train west to east across Canada. The thought that they could cross the whole continent was exciting.Their friend, Danny Lin, was waiting at the airport. He was going to take them and their baggage to catch "The True North", the cross-Canadatrain. On the way to the station, he chatted about their trip. "You'regoing to see some great scenery. Going eastward, you'll pass mountainsand thousands of lakes and forests, as well as wide rivers and large cities. Some people have the idea that you can cross Canada i n less than five days,but they forget the fact that Canada is 5,500 kilometres from coast tocoast. Here in Vancouver, you're in Canada's warmest part. People say it is Canada's most beautiful city, surrounded by mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Skiing in the Rocky Mountains and sailing in the harbour makeVancouver one of Canada's most popular cities to live in. Its population is increasing rapidly. The coast north of Vancouver has some o f the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world. It is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall, some measuring over 90 metres."That afternoon aboard the train, the cousins settled down in their seats. Earlier that day, when they crossed the Rocky Mountains, theymanaged t o catch sight of some m ountain goats and even a grizzly bear and an eagle. Their next stop was Calgary, which is famous for the Calgary Stampede. Cowboys f rom all over the world come t o compete in the Stampede. Many of them have a gift for riding wild horses and can win thousands ofdollars in prizes.After two days' travel, the girls began to realize that Canada i s quite empty. At school, they had learned that most Canadians live within a few hundred kilometres of the USA border, and Canada's population isonly slightly over thirty million, but now they were amazed to see suchan empty country. They went through a wheat-growing province and saw farms that covered thousands of acres. After dinner, they were back in an urban area, the busy port city of Thunder Bay at the top of the Great Lakes.The girls were surprised at the fact that ocean ships can sail up the Great Lakes. Because of the Great Lakes, they learned, Canada has more freshwater than any other country in the world. In fact, it has one-third ofthe world's total fresh water, and much of it is in the Great Lakes.That night as they slept, the train rushed across the top of Lake Superior, through the great forests and southward towards Toronto.”FROM TORONTO TO MONTREAL“THE TURE NORTHThe next morning the bushes and maple trees outside their windowswere red, gold and orange, and there was frost on the ground, confirming that fall had arrived in Canada.Around noon they arrived in Toronto, the biggest and most wealthycity in Canada. They were not leaving for Montreal until later, so theywent on a tour of the city. They went up the tall CN Tower and looked across the lake. In the distance, they could see the misty cloud that rose fromthe great Niagara Falls, which is on the south side of the lake. The water flows into the Niagara River and over the falls on its way to the sea.They saw the covered stadium, home of several famous basketballteams. As they walked north from the harbour area, Li Daiyu said, "LinFei, one of my mother's old schoolmates, lives here. I should phone herfrom a telephone booth."They met Lin Fei around dusk in downtown Chinatown, one of the three in Toronto. Over dinner at a restaurant called The Pink Pearl, the cousins chatted with Lin Fei, who had moved to Canada many y ears earlier. "We can get good Cantonese food here," Lin Fei told them, "because most of theChinese people here come f rom South China, especially Hong Kong. It's too bad you can't go as far as Ottawa, Canada's capital. It's approximatelyfour hundred kilometres northeast of Toronto, so it would take too long." The train left late that night and arrived in Montreal at dawn the next morning. At the station, people everywhere were speaking French.There were signs and ads in French, but some of them had English wordsin smaller letters. "We don't leave until this evening," said Liu Qian."Let's go downtown. Old Montreal is close to the water." They spent theafternoon in lovely shops and visiting artists in their workplaces beside the water. As they sat in a buffet restaurant looking over the broad StLawrence River, a young man sat down with them."Hello, my name i s Henri. I'm a student at the university nearby," he said, "and I was wondering where you are from." The girls told him they were on a train trip across Canada and that they had only one day inMontreal. "That's too bad," he said. "Montreal is a city with wonderfulrestaurants and clubs. Most of us speak both English and French, but the city has French culture and traditions. We love good coffee, good breadand good music."That night as the train was speeding along the St Lawrence River toward the Gulf of St Lawrence and down to the distant east coast, thecousins dreamed of French restaurants and red maple leaves.。
