Понимание прочитанного

Прежде чем читать текст, обратите внимание на пояснения к тексту. Прочитайте текст, вдумайтесь в его содержание, постарайтесь понять его, чтобы выполнить задания после текста.

1. Canada is a good example of the way people of different ways of life and different languages can live side by side under one government. The population of Canada has risen from 11.5 million in 1941 to 25 million in 1980. Most of the newcomers are from Europe, Asia and the USA, so that today less than 44% of Canada’s population is of British origin. Quebec Province is still 90% French. There are some groups of French Canadians in Ontario and Manitoba, but the numbers are quite small.

2. All Canadian children have to learn both French and English at school, but Francophones and Anglophones do not enjoy learning each other’s language. Still, most Quebecois middle class families living in Montreal are bilingual – they speak English and French equally well. Montreal is Fran-

cophone and the second biggest city in Canada. But there are a lot of Anglophone businessmen there, and they usually employ Anglophone workers.

3. Until the Second World War, every Canadian province except Quebec was overwhelmingly British, both by blood and in feeling. Some Canadians were more patriotic than the British themselves. Now Canadians think of themselves as a people in their own right, not tied to either Britain or the USA. The USA has not been a threat to Canada for almost two hundred years.

4. The Canadian government is more British in style than American, except that it is a federal government. The head of government is the Prime Minister, often called the “PM”, as in Britain. The Federal Government has a Senate and House of Commons and each province also has a House of Commons.

5. Canada now belongs to the Commonwealth of Nations (nations which once belonged to the British Empire). Her ties with the mother country are not as strong as they were. It has a new flag which has two red bands at either end with a red maple leaf in the middle. The maple tree is the national tree of Canada. Queen Elizabeth II is still Queen of Canada. She is head of the government, as in Britain, but has a Governor-General to represent her. She is still quite popular among Anglophone Canadians, but she is more popular still in the USA!
