I picked up my two best friends and we were off on a road trip. I had just returned to America from a year abroad in China. So, naturally I wanted to take a trip to Canada.
Montreal, the second largest city in Canada, is a fourhour drive from my home in New Hampshire. We felt a thrill as we crossed the border into Canada. It was the first time I had ever driven across an international border. We turned on the radio to try and find some Canadian stations.
After dropping off our bags at our hotel, we were immediately walking down the famous St Catherine's Street. While we walked, two things surprised us: how cold it was and how well everyone dressed. The streets of Montreal are like a fashion
Both_men_and_women_look_like_they_stepped_out_of_the_pages_of_a_magazine.
All of that fashion has to keep them warm since Montreal is so cold. Last year it broke the record for the most snowfall in North America. To hide from the cold we went into a small diner because we wanted to order Poutine, a very popular snack in Montreal. It is French fries covered in cheese and brown gravy (肉汁). It is delicious.
However, we had a hard time ordering the dish since the official language of Montreal is French. It is actually the fifth largest Frenchspeaking city in the world. But since the rest of Canada speak English, plenty of people were there to help.
We spent the rest of the weekend going to many historical churches and

show.

monuments in Montreal. But at night we'd head to the very modern dance clubs and bars. Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go.

解析：选D 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话中的“...
we
were
immediately
walking ...”可知作者和他的朋友迫不及待地想参观蒙特利尔。根据第四段中的“To hide from the cold ...”可以推知作者并不适应那里的寒冷。根据第三段最后两句可知蒙特利尔的人们非常注重着装。D项文中未提及，故选D。

B．The people they met in the diner were kind and helpful.C．All the people in the diner were locals.D．The author went to Montreal on business.
