Canada—“The True North”
Canada is a country in North America, extending from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west and northward into the Arctic Ocean. It is the world's second
largest country by total area. Canada's common border with the United States to the south and northwest is the longest in the world.
Canada is a
federation composed of ten provinces and three territories. In turn, these may be grouped into regions: Western Canada, Central Canada, Atlantic Canada, and Northern Canada (the latter made up of the three territories: Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut)．

not...until... 直到……才……
You can't_get_off the bus until it has stopped.
你得等车停下才可以下去。
句型归纳：(1)until引导时间状语从句时：
①若主句谓语动词为延续性动词，那么这个主句则需用肯定句式，表示动作一直持续到until所表示的时间为止。
The young couple were very happy until_they_used_up all their money.
那对年轻夫妇直到花光了所有的钱才沮丧起来。
②若主句谓语动词为非延续性动词，如go, come, leave, begin等，那么主句常用否定式，表示某一动作到until所表示的时间才发生，构成“not...until...”结构。
③若从句表示的动作还没发生，习惯上也要用一般现在时态而不用一般将来时态。
(2)在“not...until”结构中，可以把not until置于句首，句子构成倒装语序。
(3)not...until...句型的强调句式为“It is/was not until...that...”。
(4)until也可以作介词，构成时间状语。
He didn't know about it until I told him.
＝Not_until I told him did_he_know_about_it.(倒装句)
＝It_was_not_until I told him that he knew about it.(强调句)
直到我告诉他，他才知道这件事。
