You will hear a podcast about a part of Canada called Bruce County and the events that take place there. 00:00:09,840 First, you have some time to look at questions eleven to sixteen. 00:00:43,980 Now listen carefully and answer questions eleven to sixteen. 00:00:51,480 Welcome to the Bruce County tourist information podcast about the area and the special events that we have throughout the year. Be sure to come and enjoy them. 00:01:03,240 Bruce County is on a large bay in one of the largest lakes in Canada. It's the perfect place to visit as you can explore the diverse and spectacular landscapes that make the whole area so appealing to visitors. 00:01:19,200 You can experience the rocky, crystal clear waters of the lake and its white sandy beaches. 00:01:26,940 The area's also famous for its high cliffs and interesting caves. The rock cliffs are too risky to climb, but people enjoy visiting the caves. 00:01:39,660 The region's also full of interesting and challenging hiking trails. As you travel south, you'll start to see rolling farmland and small towns. 00:01:51,060 The area has a lot of history. The original inhabitants hunted the land long before the arrival of the European settlers. In eighteen fifteen, an English sailor called William Bruce discovered the area and named it after himself, Bruce County. 00:02:09,820 Over the years, the settlers planted the rich land of the south with crops. The first town was called Sydenham, and ten years later, the name changed to what it is today, Woods Hill. 00:02:23,760 In the late eighteen hundreds, ships crowded the town's busy harbor as it was the main access to shipping on Canada's Great Lakes. 00:02:33,080 At that time, the town was full of sailors and places to eat and to stay. 00:02:39,660 Bruce County is also the birthplace of a famous artist who loved to paint scenes of the area. 00:02:47,260 The town of Woods Hill is interesting to visit. It's easy to get around because there's public transport to get you places. 00:02:57,020 The buses run Monday to Saturday, but not to worry, on Sundays we have plenty of taxis. Of course, since the town is not that large, a tour on foot is easy. 00:03:10,780 As you walk around, you won't get lost, as you will see over forty wooden plaques, each with a short description and directions to places of cultural and historical interest. 00:03:23,780 It's a good idea to get a map of the town at the information center near the front of Central Square. This will show you the location of the town's parks and the children's playgrounds. 00:03:36,540 The town is divided in two by the river, so you will need to locate the pedestrian bridge. There are four bridges, but two are for cars only. 00:03:47,720 The town has many parks and several children's playgrounds. 00:03:55,280 Before you hear the rest of the podcast, you have some time to look at questions seventeen to twenty. 00:04:21,540 Now listen and answer questions seventeen to twenty. 00:04:28,520 Now, all year long, Bruce County has great events. The first event's the March Festival. This is a French-Canadian tradition where friends and family gather to celebrate after the long, cold Canadian winter. 00:04:45,860 As the weather warms, the maple trees release their sweet sap, which is collected and boiled. The result is wonderful maple syrup, which you can enjoy for just a couple of dollars on pancakes. 00:05:00,000 The festival cooks prepare them for you as you wait. Enjoy them while listening to entertainers singing traditional French songs. 00:05:09,580 In the summer, we've got what we call the Lakeside Sundays at the harbor. Visitors and locals have the chance to walk around and talk to the sailboat captains. Most people bring a picnic of tasty food, which they can enjoy later on while they watch the sailboats compete for first place. The Salmon Spectacular is for anyone who loves fishing. The area is well known for its salmon fishing and for its ten-day fishing contest at the end of August. There are always a lot of fishermen trying to catch the biggest fish, and anyone can take part. 00:05:48,640 Everyone hopes to catch a big one to take home to cook. Of course, you don't have to fish to enjoy the activities. There's lots of entertainment at the event. 00:06:00,400 At the November festival, there are hundreds of thousands of multicolored illuminations all over town. Some of the illuminations even have moving parts and are accompanied by live music. 00:06:17,260 That is the end of part two. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to part two. ## 题目与答案 ### 11-12. Which TWO things does the speaker say about Bruce County?
