加拿大和美国的差异

张祖平

Canada and the United States are neighbors. They are on the same continent1. They share the same long boundary2.

Canada buys many goods from the United States. Cars and clothes are two examples. The United States also buys goods from Canada. Much of the paper used in the United States comes from Canada and some of the oil comes from Canada， too.

Americans travel to Canada on holidays. And Canadians often visit the United States. It is easy for the people of one country to go to the other country.

Canadians read about the United States in newspapers and magazines. Many Americans watch Canadian baseball and hockey3 matches on Sundays.

However， there are important differences between the United States and Canada.

The United States has many more people. There is much unused land in Canada. Because the population is smaller， there are more open places in Canada.

加拿大和美国是邻居，它们在同一片大陆上，它们共享一条漫长的边境线。

加拿大从美国进口很多商品，汽车和服装就是两个例子。美国也从加拿大进口商品。美国用的很多纸张都来自加拿大，消费的一些石油也产自加拿大。

在假期美国人到加拿大旅行，加拿大人也经常到美国观光。人们从一个国家到另一个国家旅行是方便的。

加拿大人在报纸和杂志上了解关于美国的内容。很多美国人都会在星期天看看加拿大的棒球和曲棍球比赛。

然而，美国和加拿大之间有重要的差别。

美国人口更多，加拿大有很多荒地。因为加拿大人口较少，所以有更多空地。
