A
After leaving Vancouver Airport,I got on the Skytrain to downtown Vancouver.I'd hardly sat down when two local ladies got on the train,sat next to me and started chatting with me.When I got to Burrard Station,I asked a passer-by for directions to my hotel.He took a lot of time to explain it to me.But I still got confused and had to ask another passer-by for
directions.This time I was guided along the street practically to the door of my hotel.
So far,after just 45 minutes in Vancouver,I'd met four Vancouverites (温哥华人),all of whom were unbelievably friendly and helpful.Before I came to Canada,I was told Canadians were friendly.Well,that's really true.
When I arrived at my hotel,it was 4：00 pm and I only had one day to explore Vancouver,so after admiring the harbour views from my hotel room,I had a quick shower,cast one more longing glance at the bed,and then stepped out into the bright Vancouver sunshine.
It was a sunny spring day.I planned to visit Stanley Park,just a ten-minute walk from my hotel,so I took a bike from Spokes Bicycle Rentals and cycled through the park,stopping every few meters to take photos,admire the wildlife and watch the locals enjoying the sunshine.As a traveler,one can walk,bike,or go roller skating around Vancouver's Stanley Park.It's a popular local hang-out (某人常去的地方) whether you want to sunbathe or pose for your wedding photos.
I could have hung out in Stanley Park until dusk,but I had to keep moving as two friends and some Vancouver locals were meeting me at the hotel at 6：00 pm.So I had to leave to meet them.
If you are interested in my time in Canada,come back to my blog tomorrow. 【语篇解读】 作者向我们讲述了他在温哥华的一段旅行经历. 1．When the writer was on the train to downtown Vancouver,________. A．he offered to talk with two women B．he asked some strangers for directions

Only a few people in Toronto have the luck to live within walking distance from their workplace.For the rest of us,commuting (乘车上下班) is a rather unpleasant daily necessity.
So how do you avoid a traffic jam in Toronto? You can do it in the old way and listen to one of the radio stations that give regular updates about the traffic situation in Toronto's streets.Seeing the big picture of Toronto's traffic and knowing when and where heavy traffic occurs is a must.From my own experience,there are situations where a quick decision can help you make it in time for an event or a meeting.That's why we prepared three short videos showing the overall traffic situation in Toronto from dawn to night.You can click them and watch.
With the help of “Google Maps”,where you can watch the live traffic density all over the world and average traffic data based on past conditions,we were able to provide you with traffic maps for a typical (平常的) Friday.
Friday traffic in Toronto is quite fast in the early morning,with only a few hot spots showing up at the major junctions (交叉点) at 7：00 am.The morning traffic jam starts light at 7：30 and the traffic gradually slows down to reach a breaking point at 8：30.The roads are quite free afterwards,only Allen Road is likely to be jammed around lunchtime from 11：30 am to 12：00 noon.It comes as no surprise that Friday afternoon brings heavy traffic as early as 1：30 pm,mainly on the Don Valley Parkway.You won't have a good time getting away from the city from 4：00 pm to 6：30 pm,as there is a good chance to get caught in a traffic jam.The traffic in Toronto is quite heavy on a Friday night.I hope you will have a nice Friday night in the city and a safe journey home this Friday!
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了多伦多的交通情况.
5．By saying “commuting is a rather unpleasant daily necessity”,the writer refers to the fact that ________.
A．buses are usually very crowded B．they are often stuck in traffic jams
