  Most of the first European immigrants(移民)came from   4  .They named some of their first cities   5   their homeland.There is a city called York in England so they   6   an American city and a state New York.  7   is an island named Jersey so they named a state New Jersey.  8   English names in America are New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, named after a   9   Englishman named William Penn.All of the early   10   together were called New England and they have that name today.

  Other Europeans soon   11   the English immigrants.There were Germans and Dutch from northern Europe and Italians and Spanish from   12   Europe.The French settled more in the north Canada.Since England is really four countries in   13  , there were four types of people   14   came.There were English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales.Some of these   15   settled in Canada.

  It was a January evening on our farm in rural Saskatchewan(萨斯喀彻温省).Snow banks piled high   1   the door of the house, faintly(朦胧地, 模糊地)glowing in the moonlight.It's time to bed my nine-year-old son, Ryan.He was just   2   to himself as I stepped into his room,“I hope I can have my own   3  .”And almost for two months, he kept   4   the same words.

    5   most boys in Canada, Ryan liked to play Rocky, but the   6   rink was 24 miles away.There was no way he could play on this farm.I didn't   7   him for wanting an ice rink(溜冰场)of his own, but I worried his heart would be broken as his hope failed him   8   Ice rinks don't just appear out of thin air.

  What could we do?“Our well doesn't have enough water to make rink.”my husband, Ken told me, shaking his head   9  .“Besides, we don't have the   10   to build one.”So like Ryan, I could   11   hope the legend would happen.Please don't   12   him.

  A few weeks went by and Ryan continued dreaming the day would draw in.  13  , the weather warmed up, unusual for that time of year.We enjoyed spending time   14  , making snowman.But gradually the snow banks melted and flooded our yard.I looked outside.one day to find our garden had   15   a muddy pool.

  That night a cold front moved in.The, wind howled.We tucked(蜷缩)ourselves beneath our quilts.The next   16   I was still groggy(头昏眼花的)when Ryan came running to me.“Mom, come look!”he shouted: He grabbed my   17   and pulled me outside.

  There, in the garden, the pool of water had frozen   18   overnight-the perfect size of an ice rink.The only time in the 28 years that we've lived here   19   ever happened.Finally, Ryan's dream   20
