Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
Canada is one of the few nations in the world to have two official languages：English and French. There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of these—Quebec is known as "French Canada". This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest.
Canada left the Britain in 1867 to become an independent country, and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since.
Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country. Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast, French television is very rare.
The same goes for traffic signs and menus, for example. Outside of Quebec, there are only a few places where you'll see traffic signs in French. In restaurants, it's almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland of French Canada. However, all products sold in Canada must, by law, have labels（標(biāo)簽）and instructions in both languages.
In Canada's English speaking provinces, official bilingualism（雙語(yǔ)）means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this programme, they are taught most of their subjects in French. If a student begins the course in kindergarten（幼兒園）or Grade One, it is likely that all their lessons will be in French. However, if they start at junior high school, 25 per cent of the teaching will continue to be in English.

【解析】本文介紹加拿大的風(fēng)土人情之官方語(yǔ)言背景：英語(yǔ)和法語(yǔ). 在加拿大講英語(yǔ)的省份,官方語(yǔ)言（雙語(yǔ)）,學(xué)生可以選擇完成一個(gè)法語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言課程.

（1）A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句話“There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of thesQuebec is known as 'French Canada'”可知在加拿大有10個(gè)省。故選A。

（2）B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句話“Canada left the British empire(帝國(guó))in 1867 to become an independent country”，可知在1867年加拿大脫離大英帝國(guó)，成為一個(gè)獨(dú)立的國(guó)家。故選B。

（3）C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中開始一句“Canada is one of the few nations in the world to have two official languages：English and French”可知加拿大有英語(yǔ)和法語(yǔ)兩種官方語(yǔ)言，則A項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)第三段此句“the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country．”可知B項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。根據(jù)第四段最后一句話“However, all products sold in Canada must, by law, have labels(標(biāo)簽)and instructions in both languages．”可知C項(xiàng)是正確的。

（4）C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的 In Canada's English speaking provinces, off icial bilingualism（雙語(yǔ)）means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this programme, they are taught most of their subjects in French. If a student begins the course in kindergarten（幼兒園）or Grade One, it is likely that all their lessons will be in French. 在加拿大講英語(yǔ)的省份,官方語(yǔ)言（雙語(yǔ)）意味著學(xué)生可以選擇完成一個(gè)法語(yǔ)語(yǔ)言課程.根據(jù)這一方案,他們大部分的科目用法語(yǔ)教。如果一個(gè)學(xué)生在幼兒園或一年級(jí)開始這課程，很可能所有的課程都用法語(yǔ)。故選C。
