An Ideal Living City
Hi Mark,
Winter was gone and spring comes back in Toronto, because the temperature here goes up day by day and I can't feel cold anymore.Although the snow hasn't been melted totally, but the city is clean. It gives me a deep impression for I haven't worried about being splashed with mud.
Most people want to live in a clean environment, breathe fresh air and drink clean water everyday. Unfortunately, for some special reasons, so many people have to drink polluted water and eat poisoned foods everyday.
I can see blue sky and white clouds often here. There are so many parks scattered everywhere of the city, people lived in here can enjoy parks conveniently. People who live in here don't worry about pollution problems. All of above show Toronto's environment is better than many cities in China.
Best regards
Sam

Yu and You
Yu is my family name, I'm used to hearing it in my language, but it has been changed in Canada.
On the third day after I arrived in Toronto, I went to a driver licence examination centre to take G1 test. After a written examination, I waited for my mark with more than thirty people in a room.
When the examinator gave a mark , he called names one by one. In a approximately 20 minutes waiting, I heard a lots of names, such as Jack, Mary, Peter etc, however, I haven't heard my name and kept on waiting. Suddenly the examinator called the name "you", I looked around, nobody stood up. It should be my turn, but my name's pronunciation is very different as you, maybe the name was mine. I walked to him and found that's my examination paper then made sure he called me.
I realized my name has been changed from Yu to You that day, because english native speakers can't pronounce my chinese name.

A Visit to the Toronto Reference Library
Last Friday with the guidance of my LINC teacher, my LINC classmates and I went to the TRL which is the biggest library in Toronto . The TRL is located downtown which is far from my home. In order to arrive at the TRL on time, I got up earlier. At approximately 9:40 am, we met on the first floor of TRL.
Although I learned some information about the TRL on website several weeks ago, I was still amazed by the TRL, for its clean, bright, silent, convenient environment. I haven't seen a library like this ever.
After about ten minutes rest, we all went to the ESL centre where a nice librarian introduced it to us, mainly focusing on how to use books, CDs/DVDs to study English, how can we borrow some books to take home, how can we read some books at library. In a word, ESL may do a great favor to a non-native English speaker.
On the ground floor, we saw two kinds of interest things. One is all kinds of newspapers come from all over the world include Chinese newspapers. Another is an old type microfilm which I've seen about ten years ago.
As a newcomer, I enjoyed this kind of field trip, for it not only helps me learn the culture of Canada, but helps me adapt to the new life.

Field Trip 1 ROM
ROM- Royal Ontario Museum
I went to the ROM with my LINC classmates and teacher last Friday. It's a very interesting place located downtown. There are a lot of ancient artifacts from different countries .
I went to the aboriginal exhibits first followed teacher Joseph. I learned the difference between a canoe and a kayak there: there is only one seat in a kayak and many seats in a canoe;
Outside the aboriginal section, I saw the beautiful rotunda. "That all men may know his work" was written at the top of the rotunda. In order to take a picture of the ceiling of the rotunda, Joseph lay on the ground and took several pictures for our classmates.
We went to the Greece section the third floor . There are a lot of sculptures and i learned the word Cypriot. And then we went to the egyptian section and saw mummies for the first time. There was a mummy of a very beautiful woman .
I went back to home with my classmate from Romania.

A New Start
My first blog was created on Jan-28-2013. With the help of Joseph who is my English teacher in Consumer LINC centre. Joseph is a very nice teacher, enthusiastic and passionate.
I will record every step of my journey in English in this blog. I hope i can speak English fluently in the future.
