【正文】 er the broad St Lawrence River, a young man sat down with them.Hello, my name is Henri. I39。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 in Montreal. That39。s too bad, he said. Montreal is a city with wonderful restaurants and clubs. Most of us speak both English and French, but the city has French culture and traditions. We love good coffee, good bread and 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, the cousins dreamed of French restaurants and red maple leaves.IQALUIT THE FROZEN TOWNThe reporter, Beth Allen, arrived in a northern munity called Iqaluit in Nunavut .Nunavut was created in 1999 as a special area for Inuit people. Its name means Our Land in their language. It is in the farthest northeastern area of Canada, north of the Arctic Circle, and is very cold the average winter temperature in Nunavut is 35 degrees below zero. Beth said, I knew it would be cold in January, but not this cold! Maybe there is a dog sled that can take me into town. The quiet man who had been on the plane with her said, I39。ll take you into town, but I don39。t have a dog sled. Most people only use the dogs for petitions. Why are you visiting Iqaluit? Beth answered, I39。m writing a story for my newspaper about Iqaluit we39。d like to advertise it as a holiday place, but I think it39。s too cold. The man laughed. My name is Simon and I am Inuit, he said. I think it39。s too far north here for holidays but more and more tourists are ing. They like ice fishing and photographing polar bears. I stay as far away from polar bears as possible. I like my warm office and my warm house. Beth asked, What do you do in an office? Don39。t you hunt animals for a living? I thought you lived in ice houses. I39。m a business man. My grandfather would live in ice houses when he hunted in winter, but not so many people do that now. The old men used to make one in a few hours. They used to live in skin tents in summer the tents were easy to move so the people could follow the animals. A few minutes later they arrived in Iqaluit, a town with a population of 6,000, on Simon39。s snowmobile. It was two o39。clock in the afternoon, but it was already dark, and all the houses shone with bright lights. Beth said, Why is it so dark? It39。s the middle of the day! Simon replied, It39。s dark in the day because we are so far north. You should e in June. The sun shines all night in the north then. That39。s why it39。s called 39。The Land of the Midnight Sun39。. There were people on the streets and snowmobiles everywhere. There were even a few dog teams.
