A Trip Across Canada
After a quiz last autumn, Kuang crossed the continent eastward to Toronto to visit his schoolmate, the distance measuring (approximate) 5,000 kilometres.
His train started from Vancouver, a city (surround) by mountains. After confirming his baggage was aboard the train, Kuang settled down in his seat. Having a gift communication, he started chatting with another passenger. Their topics included the Canadian traditions, the prime minister and the (mix) of races. After a nice buffet at noon, he was pleased (find) that the scenery was impressive. He saw beautiful harbours in the distance, (wealth) urban areas and maple forests covered thousands of acres. He even managed to catch sight of an eagle (fly) upward over bushes. Kuang reached Toronto which lies (slight) near the border at a misty dawn. There was frost and the broad downtown streets were very quiet. Though it was early, Kuang phoned his schoolmate in a booth nearby at once rather than waited for him to come. They had good time together.
