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.

加拿大和美國是鄰居，它們在同一片大陸上，它們共享一條漫長的邊境線。

加拿大從美國進(jìn)口很多商品，汽車和服裝就是兩個例子。美國也從加拿大進(jìn)口商品。美國用的很多紙張都來自加拿大，消費(fèi)的一些石油也產(chǎn)自加拿大。

在假期美國人到加拿大旅行，加拿大人也經(jīng)常到美國觀光。人們從一個國家到另一個國家旅行是方便的。

加拿大人在報紙和雜志上了解關(guān)于美國的內(nèi)容。很多美國人都會在星期天看看加拿大的棒球和曲棍球比賽。

然而，美國和加拿大之間有重要的差別。

美國人口更多，加拿大有很多荒地。因?yàn)榧幽么笕丝谳^少，所以有更多空地。
