Para 1
After Li Daiyu and her cousin arrived in Toronto, the largest and wealthiest city in Canada, they only had a few hours to kill打发before they had to proceed 前往 to the next leg(part) of their trip to Montreal, so they went on a tour of the city. They went up the CN Tower and looked across the shores岸 of Lake Ontario. Standing in the distance, they were astonished惊奇 to see misty薄雾笼罩 clouds rising from the great Niagara Falls宾补, [which is on the south side of the lake]. Water from the lake flows into the Niagara River and over越过 the falls on its way to the sea.
李黛玉和她的表妹到达加拿大最大、最富有的城市多伦多后，在前往下一站蒙特利尔之前，她们只有几个小时的时间可以打发了，于是她们就去参观了这座城市。他们登上加拿大国家电视塔，眺望安大略湖对岸。站在远处，他们惊奇地看到湖南侧的尼亚加拉大瀑布上升起薄云。湖水流入尼亚加拉河，越过瀑布流入大海。
Para 2
The girls saw hundreds of skyscrapers摩天大楼 of glass and steel钢筋, and old-fashioned老式的cars rolling by驶过. As they walked north from the harbour area, Li Daiyu said, “Lin Fei, one of my mother’s old schoolmates(同位语), lives here. I should phone(给某人打电话) her and see if she’s available有空 for dinner.”
女孩们看到了数以百计的玻璃和钢筋建造的摩天大楼，老式汽车驶过。从港口区往北走，李黛玉说:“林菲，我母亲的老同学，住在这里。我应该给她打个电话，看看她是否有空共进晚餐。”

“This is the largest Chinatown in Toronto. We have a few more in the Greater Toronto Area, so you can guess [that there are a lot of Chinese people in Canada]! Chinese people have been coming here for more than a hundred years. Therefore, we can get all kinds of great food here from all over China,” Lin Fei told them.
“这是多伦多最大的唐人街。我们还有一些在大多伦多地区，所以你可以猜到加拿大有很多中国人!中国人来这里已经有一百多年的历史了。因此，我们可以在这里吃到中国各地的美食。”

Para 9
The girls told him [they were from China and were on a train trip across Canada]. [When they told him (they had only one day in Montreal)], he said, “That’s too bad. You owe it to yourselves to stay longer你们应该多待一会儿. Overall总的来说, Montreal is a city with wonderful sights and sounds声色俱佳. Most of us speak both English and French, and the city has unique独特的 Quebec culture and traditions. There are fantastic restaurants and clubs around, too. Here, we love good coffee, toast 吐司, and cheese. And good music, of course!”

Para 10
That night the train was speeding along the St Lawrence River towards the Gulf of St Lawrence and down to the distant east coast towards the province of Nova Scotia and its largest city, Halifax. The cousins dreamt happily of the beautiful cobblestone鹅卵石 streets, old brick砖 buildings, and the red maple leaves of Montreal.
那天晚上，火车沿着圣劳伦斯河高速行驶，驶向圣劳伦斯湾，然后驶向遥远的东海岸，驶向新斯科舍省和该省最大的城市哈利法克斯。表姐妹俩愉快地梦见了蒙特利尔美丽的鹅卵石街道、古老的砖房和红色的枫叶。

Dear Mum and Dad,
Thank you so much for allowing me to go on this journey! It has been a wonderful trip so far, and I am loving Canada!
We started in Vancouver, where we went shopping for gifts and then went hiking. Unfortunately, it rained the first day we were there, but then it became clear after that. Then we took a train to Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies, and then a coach through the Rockies to Jasper. The scenery was spectacular---massive forests and mountains, beautiful blue lakes, and all kinds of animals. We even saw a grizzly bear! From there, we took a long-distance train to Toronto. We were amazed by how empty and wide the Canadian Prairie was. It just stretched on and on, as far as the eye could see.
But then after we passed Winnipeg we were in a land of lakes and hills. It was all so beautiful. Toronto was amazing. We went to the CN Tower and were surprised because we could see clouds rising from the Niagara Falls across the lake. Then we had dinner in Chinatown with Lin Fei (she says“Hi!"). From there we travelled to Montreal where we went shopping in the old town. Then we stopped at a restaurant where we met a cool guy named Jean-Philippe. He's a photographer. He told us all about Montreal and its culture. Did you know that nearly everyone there speaks French Luckily, many of them speak English as well. Finally, we caught the train to Halifax.
It has been a great trip, filling us with so many happy memories. We plan on spending about a week here getting rested up from our journey, and then we'll fly home.
Love,
Daiyu
