Geography 美國地理
I.Location and Size A.Name a.the United States of America b.the United States c.the U.S.d.America B.Location The continental United States lies in central North America with Canada(加拿大)to its north, Mexico(墨西哥)and the Gulf of Mexico(墨西哥灣)to its south, the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋)to its east and the Pacific Ocean(太平洋)to its west.The two newest states Alaska(阿拉斯加)and Hawaii(夏威夷)are separated from the continental United States: Alaska borders on northwestern Canada, and Hawaii lies in the central Pacific.C.Benefit of its location The United States has an ideal location for trade.Its Atlantic coast faces the developed countries of Western Europe and its Pacific coast and Hawaii give the nation an approach to the Far East(遠(yuǎn)東)and Australasia(澳大利西亞).In the past the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans served as natural barriers between the United States and the rest of the world.This allowed the United States to grow and become strong with little outside interference.Today with the development of the means of communication and transportation the world has become smaller and the United States is well connected to the rest of the world.D.Land area a.The U.S.has a land area of 9.3 million square kilometers.It is the fourth largest country in the world in size after Russia, Canada and China.b.The U.S.is a federal republic with many states.48 states +Alaska +Hawaii(1959)Alaska: largest Rhode Island: smallest Texas: the largest on the main land Ⅱ.Topography——The Face of the Land A.Two mountain ranges 兩大山脈
a.the Appalachian mountains/ the Appalachians 阿巴拉契亞山脈 走向:from the northeast to southwest older, lower noted for forests and mines seven different local names:
阿巴拉契亞山脈在不同地區(qū)的七個(gè)名稱: the Green Mountains 格林山脈 the White Mountains 懷特山脈 the Catskills
卡茨基爾山脈 the Alleghenies
阿勒格民山脈 the Cumberlands
坎伯蘭山脈 the Blue Ridge mountains 藍(lán)山山脈 the Great Smokies
大霧山脈
b.the Rocky mountains/ the Rockies 落基山脈 走向:from the northwest of southeast younger, higher——as young as the Himalayas 喜瑪拉雅山脈
——the highest peak: the Elbert 坎爾伯特峰
Known as ①the backbone of the North American continent 北美大陸的脊梁
②the Continental Divide 大陸分水嶺
The tops of the Rocky Mountain chain form the imaginery north-south line known as the Continental Divide.It separates the major river systems of the United States.The rivers that descend from the eastern slopes of the Rockies flow into the Mississippi and the Gulf of Mexico.Those that begin on the western slopes of the Rockies flow to the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of California.B.Rivers and Lakes a.Rivers ① The Mississippi 密西西比河
The Mississippi, lying between the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains is one of the world’s great continental rivers.The Mississippi proper(干流)rises in the lake region in North Minnesota(明尼蘇達(dá)州北部)and flows south to the Gulf of Mexico.It is 3,782 kilometres long.②The Missouri 密蘇里河
the chief headstream of the Mississippi The Missouri rises in southwest Montana among the Rocky mountains.It runs 3,725 kilometres before it joins the Mississippi at St.Louis.③The Ohio 俄亥俄河
It flows from the rainy east at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and joins the Mississippi at Cairo, Illinois.It is about 1,500 kilometres long.The Ohio River has been called the American Ruhr(after the Ruhr River 魯爾河in Germany).As in Germany, the area along the river is rich in valuable deposits of high-grade coking coal and is well-known for its steel industry.The river provides cheap water transportation for raw materials.④The Colorado 科羅拉多河
⑤The Columbia 哥倫比亞河:rises in Canada The Colorado River rises in the snow-capped Rocky Mountains.It flows 2,330 kilometres and empties into the Gulf of California(加利福尼亞灣).In the dry western country, both rivers are vital sources of life.The Colorado drains an enormous area.All the farms and cities of the southwestern corner of the country depend on its water.Today a system of dams have been built on the river to supply water and electricity for farms, factories and homes.⑥The Rio Grande River 格蘭德河
The Rio Grande River rises in the southern Rocky mountains and flows to the Gulf of Mexico.It is about 3,200 kilometres long and forms a natural boundary between Mexico and the United States.⑦The Hudson 哈得孫河 ⑧The Potomac 波托馬克河 b.Lakes The Great Lakes(五大湖區(qū)):They are all located between Canada and the U.S.except Lake Michigan.①Lake Superior 蘇必利爾湖:the largest fresh water lake in the world 全世界第一大淡水湖
② Lake Michigan 密歇根湖:the only one entirely in the U.S.③ Lake Huron 休倫湖 ④ Lake Erie
伊利湖 ⑤ Lake Ontario 安大略湖
The Importance of the Great Lakes 五大湖的重要性
These lakes are joined together by canals and are linked to the Mississippi River and its tributaries in the Interior Plains and the Atlantic Ocean forming a complete system of waterways.The Great Lakes are the economic lifeline of the Midwest.They provide cheap transportation for materials such as iron ore, coal, and grain.The upper lakes region is a land of great natural wealth, whereas the lower lakes region is a land of industries.The cheap and easy transportation between these two regions is of great importance.C.Benefits of the topography of U.S.The United States is a varied land of forests, deserts, mountains, plateaus and fertile plains.①The long and irregular seacoasts provide many excellent harbours.②The mountains are rich in mineral resources.③The fertile gently rolling plains are easy to cultivate.④A large network of lakes and the Atlantic and Gulf rivers links the interior of the country with the coastal cities.⑤Many swift rivers provide good sources of hydroelectric power.The United States is a large country, but no single part of it is isolated from other parts.The topography and the excellent system of internal transportation have made possible the free exchange of goods among all sections of the country.With the increased use of automobiles and airplanes, people now travel easily from one part of the country to another.Ⅲ.Climate 氣候
A.Six types of climate ① the humid continental climate 濕潤的大陸性氣候
in the north-eastern part of the country(New England)② the humid subtropical climate 濕潤的亞熱帶氣候
in the south-eastern part ③ the continental steppe climate 大陸性草原氣候
the Great Plains ④ the continental desert climate 大陸性沙漠氣候
the inter mountain region ⑤ the maritime climate 海洋性氣候
the Pacific northwest ⑥ the Mediterranean climate 地中海式氣候
the southern part of the Pacific coast in California B.Factors influence the climate of the U.S.Many factor beside latitude influence the climate in the United States.Large bodies of water such as the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Gulf of Mexico and the Great Lakes are the most important factors.They keep temperatures moderate in the regions bordering them.Ocean currents also influence the climate over wide regions.The Gulf stream(墨西哥灣暖流), the Labrador Current(拉布拉多寒流), the cool California Current(加利福尼亞寒流)and the Japan current(日本暖流)are the most important ones.The mountain ranges are another factor.For example, the Sierra Nevada and Cascade mountain ranges prevent westerly winds from bringing moisture to the intermountain region of the West.Ⅳ.Geographical Regions 地理區(qū)劃
Traditionally from the east to west the United States can be divided into seven geographical regions.They are New England, the Middle Atlantic states, the Midwest, the South, the Great Plains, Rockies and Intermountain region or the American West, the Pacific Coast and the New States.①New England 新英格蘭

人口與民族
I.Introduction A.The United States of America, with a population of 255.5 million in July 1992, is the third most populous country in the world after China and India.B.Immigration(移民)accounts for a major source of population growth.The United States had a more or less open-door policy to immigrants from independence until the 1960s.Ellis Island of New York was an important immigration reception spot in the 1890s and at the turn of the century.Even with later restrictions, immigration has continued at a high level.C.Great changes took place in the recent decades in the population of different regions in the United States.Such population movements reflected the shift from traditional manufacturing industries in the Northeast and Midwest to high-technology industries, whose growth has been most notable in the sunbelt states of the South and Mountain regions.Arizona(亞利桑那), Nevada and Florida have been the fastest growing states in population for the last 20 years.D.Most of the population in the United States live in city areas.The biggest city was New York, which was followed by Los Angeles(洛杉磯), Chicago(芝加哥), San Francisco(舊金山)and Philadelphia(費(fèi)城).E.Changes in age structure during the 1980s reflect past trends in child bearing: the low birth rate in the two decades ending in 1945, the higher birth rate during the “baby boom”(1946-1964)and the lower birth rate afterwards.Ⅱ.Immigration A.The first immigrants in American history came from England and the Netherlands.Though immigration had been a familiar aspect of American development throughout the colonial period, the largest immigration movement did not take place until 1815.B.In American history, there were three major immigration waves.The first wave began in the mid 1810s, grew steadily during the 1830s and 40s and reached the highest point in 1845.The second wave happened between 1860 and 1890.The third wave was the largest of the three.It happened between 1890 and 1914 and was drawn mainly from southern and central European countries.Ⅲ.Population Movement A.Mobility is considered to be one of the characteristics of the American people.B.There are four great population movements in the history of the United States.The first was between the end of the civil war and 1880 when the westward movement came to a halt.In this period, the flow of population was from the densely-populated east coast to the sparsely-populated west.The second was between 1890 and 1920, a period when the United States realized its industrialization and urbanization.The main feature was the movement of population from the rural areas to cities.The third was from 1920 to 1960 with the 1940s, the war years, as the peak.In this period a large number of black people moved out of the south to other areas.The fourth and the last one so far is from the end of the 1960s till now.In this period, the population flow is from the Northeast and Central North to the West and the South, that is, to the sunbelt areas.Population in the South increased by 55.47% between 1960 and 1990 and population in the west increased by 88.17% in the same period.Ⅳ.Racial and Ethnic Minorities 少數(shù)民族 A.Blacks 黑人
a.The largest of the racial and ethnic minorities in the U.S.is the blacks.The first blacks were brought to North America as slaves in 1619.Uncle Tom’s Cabin湯姆叔叔的小屋and Roots根are two novels giving a vivid description of the miserable life of the black slaves.b.The slave system was formally ended by Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 and the Thirteenth Amendment to the Constitution in 1865.But even after the abolition of slavery, open or covert, organized or individual discrimination was practiced against black Americans.c.①The civil rights movement in the 1960s.②The Civil Rights Act of 1964.③The Voting Rights Act of 1965.B.Hispanics 拉美裔美國人
Hispanic: Spanish-speaking people of any race a.The Spanish-speaking population of the United States is a large diverse and rapidly growing one.b.Three major Hispanic groups historically have had the greatest influence on the United States.①M(fèi)exican-Americans(墨西哥裔美國人), or Chicanos, make up the largest group and most of them have settled in the south-western United States.②The next largest group are the Puerto Ricans(波多黎各人).They have settled in the large cities in the eastern seaboard.③In the third place are the Cuban-Americans(古巴人)who got away from Cuba after the Cuban Revolution in 1959 and are now gathered in the Miami area.In general, the Cuban-Americans have done the best economically.④Another group: least known.They are the recent Central and South American immigrants(中南美洲移民)who fled their countries as a result of political and social unrest.They are actually refugees(難民)who are poorer, less educated and mostly from rural backgrounds.c.Many Hispanics are in lower-paying jobs.The most important obstacle to Hispanic success in the labor market is their low education.Hispanics have the highest school dropout rate of any major racial and ethnic group;d.The Hispanics are getting organized today to fight for equal treatment.C.Asian-Americans 亞裔美國人
a.The Asian and Pacific Islander population was 3% of the total population in the United States.Most Asian-Americans are doing well in the United States.A higher percentage of Asian-Americans complete university study.Experts say three Asian traditions best explain the success of Asian-Americans: education, hard work, and family.b.The largest group of Asian-Americans are the Chinese-Americans.① the gold rush ② the construction of the railroad in the 1860s ③ In May, 1882, Congress passed the Chinese Exclusion Act which stopped Chinese immigration for 10 years.④ In 1902 Chinese immigration was stopped for an indefinite period.⑤ It was not canceled until 1943 during the Second World War when China became an ally to the United States.c.The Japanese-Americans form the second largest group.D.Indians 印第安人
a.For centuries before the arrival of the first Europeans, the lands of what is now the United States were populated by “Indians” called by Columbus.b.After the civil war, government reservations(印第安人保留地), land specially set aside for the Indians, were established.Today, Native Indians live on the 278 reservations scattered around the United States.The social and economic conditions of the Indians are often poor.Their average life expectancy(壽命)is around 50 years.c.Since the 1960s, a militant social movement, the American Indian Movement, has arisen.E.White ethnics 白人的民族背景
Traditionally, the mainstream Americans were called WASPs, that is, White Anglo-Saxon Protestants.But actually there is a much greater variety of ethnic groups.13.1% of the U.S.population had English roots, 23.2% had German roots and 15.5% had Irish roots.

英國國體:以生產(chǎn)資料私有制為主,資產(chǎn)階級(jí)掌權(quán)的資本主義國家政體:君主立憲制國家結(jié)構(gòu)形式:?jiǎn)我恢?/p>
4國家機(jī)構(gòu)的組成及相互關(guān)系
①國家元首 虛偽元首 僅扮演儀式性角色
②立法機(jī)構(gòu) 議會(huì)
③行政機(jī)構(gòu) 內(nèi)閣
④司法機(jī)構(gòu) 法院
關(guān)系:
英國君主立憲制的主要機(jī)構(gòu)有國王、議會(huì)和內(nèi)閣。其中議會(huì)是國家最高立法機(jī)關(guān),主要扮演立法者和監(jiān)督者的角色。內(nèi)閣是國家最高行政機(jī)關(guān),從議會(huì)產(chǎn)生,由占議會(huì)多數(shù)席位的政黨組成,并對(duì)議會(huì)負(fù)責(zé)。國王按內(nèi)閣的意志行使形式上的權(quán)利,承擔(dān)國家元首等禮儀性職責(zé)。國王議會(huì)和內(nèi)閣三者之間,既有分權(quán)也有制約,體現(xiàn)了英國政體運(yùn)行的特點(diǎn)。
5政黨制度
①主要黨派:主要黨派有自由黨, 工黨, 國家黨, 民主黨等.其中自由黨和工黨為朝野的兩大黨派。
②政黨制度類型:兩黨制
近代資產(chǎn)階級(jí)革命后,英國逐步成為君主立憲制國家,其政治制度以議會(huì)內(nèi)閣制為核心,以兩黨制、常任文官制以及地方自治為主要特點(diǎn)。它對(duì)其他資本主義國家政治制度的建立產(chǎn)生了很大影響。
同其他國家的憲法相比,英國的憲法有以下幾個(gè)特點(diǎn):
1、英國的憲法是不成文的憲法。英國憲法的最大不同之處是它從未以一部單一法典的形式出現(xiàn),而是由13、14世紀(jì)以來,在各個(gè)不同時(shí)期通過的各種成文或不成文的、形式上多種多樣的具有憲法性的法律構(gòu)成。主要有《大憲章》、《人民公約》、《權(quán)利請(qǐng)?jiān)笗?、《?quán)利法案.》等。
2、英國憲法是柔性憲法。英國的憲法性文件的制定和修改程序同普通法律一樣,其法律地位也是同議會(huì)制定的其他法律一樣。這一現(xiàn)象產(chǎn)生的原因是由于英國憲法的非法典化,但最主要的原因是沒有任何一屆議會(huì)能夠約束它的繼任議會(huì),也沒有任何議會(huì)不能改變它的前任議會(huì)的立法,這樣,在英國的政治實(shí)踐中,很難形成關(guān)于憲法限制或權(quán)限的統(tǒng)一模式。
3、政治習(xí)慣的作用。政治習(xí)慣是在長(zhǎng)期的政治實(shí)踐中形成的,為人們認(rèn)可和接受的行為規(guī)范。在英國,政治習(xí)慣是幾個(gè)世紀(jì)的有意識(shí)的努力的結(jié)果。這樣的政治習(xí)慣有:國王必須委任下議院的多數(shù)黨領(lǐng)袖組建政府,內(nèi)閣必須向議會(huì)負(fù)責(zé)并向議會(huì)報(bào)告工作等等。這些習(xí)慣被政治實(shí)踐者認(rèn)真遵守,以至于它們成了英國憲法的重要組成部分。
英國并不是嚴(yán)格意義上的三權(quán)分立國家。首相可以被看作當(dāng)代英國政治中最有權(quán)勢(shì)的人,首相是政府的首腦,是內(nèi)閣的主持人,是議會(huì)的議員,同時(shí)也是女王的最高政治顧問。首相、內(nèi)閣、議會(huì)三者之間的關(guān)系是:
議會(huì)(多數(shù)黨)←←←←←←←負(fù)責(zé)←←←←↑
↓領(lǐng)↑
↓袖↑
首相 —領(lǐng)導(dǎo)— 內(nèi)閣 —領(lǐng)導(dǎo)— 政府
與其他國家相比,英國的政治制度既古老而又有鮮明的特色,這主要體現(xiàn)在它的君主制與民主制的結(jié)合、“議會(huì)至上”的議會(huì)內(nèi)閣制。
英國選舉制度是單選區(qū)相對(duì)多數(shù)票取勝,這對(duì)兩大黨有利。一般而言,在大選中獲勝的大黨,都沒有得到總票數(shù)的50%,但當(dāng)選的議席超過一半以上而單獨(dú)執(zhí)政。不論工黨或保守黨獲勝都是如此。而自由黨最吃虧,它取得不低的得票率,但所獲得的國會(huì)議席很少,與得票率完全不成比例。(自由黨在1988年與從工黨分裂出去的社會(huì)民主黨合并,改稱為自由民主黨)。
英國的兩黨制并不是鐵板一塊、完美無缺的,它也存在著很多弊端。首先,從兩黨制中產(chǎn)生出來的執(zhí)政黨不能充分代表民意。英國兩黨制是由英國的選舉制度作保障的。英國現(xiàn)行選舉制度是單選區(qū)出線制,以大選中獲議席多少定勝負(fù),而不是依選票情況。這就造成這樣一種矛盾現(xiàn)象:有時(shí)反對(duì)黨所得選票反而會(huì)超過執(zhí)政黨,其次,兩黨制對(duì)小黨的成長(zhǎng)、發(fā)展極為不利。小黨在選舉中的得票率同其在下院所得席位不成比例。第三,兩黨制造成英國政治上的保守。最后,兩黨制促進(jìn)了英國公眾中的政治冷淡主義傾向。兩大壟斷政權(quán),使得許多對(duì)兩黨都不喜歡的人無從選擇。在大選中,一部分這種人把選票投給了他較不討厭的那個(gè)大黨,而相當(dāng)一部分選民根本就不參加投票。投票率低是英國的一個(gè)突出現(xiàn)象。盡管投票率在整個(gè)西方國家都有下降趨勢(shì),但英國屬于最低的國家之一。
今年的英國大選,打破了兩黨制傳統(tǒng)。
第四篇:概況試題-美國
1、Puritanism
Puritans were those who followed the doctrine of John Calvin and wanted to purify the Church of England.They believe that human beings were predestined by God before they were born.Some were God's chosen people while others were damned to hell.No church nor good works could save people.The sign of being God's elect was the success in his work or the prosperity in his calling.They also argued that everyone must read the Bible in order to find God's will and establish a direct contact with God.These beliefs had great impact on American culture.2.the American Revolution
Between 1689 and 1815, france and Britain fought Seven Years’ war, and North American was drawn into everyone of them.Britain’s victory led directly to a conflict with its American colonies.The British government argued that Britain had spent large sums of money to defend their American colonies in those wars, and that the colonists therefore should pay a part of those expenses.So the british government began to charge new taxes.But the colonists refused to obey the british laws and cry” no taxation without representation”.On April 19,1775,the first shot was fired when 700 British soldiers went to capture a colonial arms depot in a small town of Concord near Boston.The American War of Independence began.And the war came to an end in 1781 with the victory of north american.The Treaty of Paris was signed in 1783 and Britian had to recognize the independence of the United States.A new nation was thus born.3.the Declaration of Independence
The Declaration of Independence was mainly drafted by Thomas Jefferson and adopted by the Congress on July 4,1776,when the people of 13 English colonials in North America were fighting for their freedom and independence from the British colonial rule.The document declared that all men were equal and that they were entitled to have some unalienable rights such as life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.It also explained the philosophy of government:the powers of governments came from the consent of the governed and the purpose of governments were to secure the rights mentioned above.The theory of politics and the guiding principles of the American Revolution mainly came from John Locke.4.American Constitution
The Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the United States of America.The Constitution is the framework for the organization of the United States government and for the relationship of the federal government with the states, citizens, and all people within the United States.The Constitution creates the three branches of the national government: a legislature, the bicameral Congress;an executive branch led by the President;and a judicial branch headed by the Supreme Court.The Constitution specifies the powers and duties of each branch.The Constitution reserves all unenumerated powers to the respective states and the people, thereby establishing the federal system of government.5.checks and balances
When Americans talk about their three-part national government, they often refer to what they call its system of “checks and balances”.This system works in many ways to keep serious mistakes from being made by legislative branch or executive branch or judicial branch.6.Federalism
Federalism in the United States is the evolving relationship between state governments and the federal government of the United States.American government has evolved from a system of dual federalism to one of associative federalism.In “Federalist No.46,” James Madison asserted that the states and national government “are in fact but different agents and trustees of the people, constituted with different powers.” Alexander Hamilton, writing in “Federalist No.28,” suggested that both levels of government would exercise authority to the citizens' benefit: “If their [the peoples'] rights are invaded by either, they can make use of the other as the instrument of redress.”
7.the Bill of Rights
The Bill of Rights consists of the first 10 amendments which were added to the Constitution in 1791.The Bill of Rights was passed to guarantee freedom and individual rights such as freedom of speech,the right to assemble in public places,the right to own weapons and so on.8.Political parties in the US
Political parties are organized groups of people who share a set of ideas about how the US should be governed and who work together to have members of their group elected in order to influence the governing of the country.today ,the US has two major political parties.one in the Democratic Party,which evolved out of Thomas Jefferson's party,formed before 1800.the symbol of the party is the donkey.the other is the Republican Party,which was formed in the 1850s,and its symbol is the elephant.9、the roots of affluence in America
No single factor is responsible for the success of American business and industry.Bountiful resources,the geographical size of the country and population trends have all contributed to these success.Religious,social and political traditions;the institutional structures of government and business;and the courage,hard work and determination of countless entrepreners and workers have also played a part.10.American industrial revolution
After independence, America was principally an agricultural country.The industrial revolution in England brought many changes to American industry between 1776 and 1860.One key development was the introduction of the factory system.A second development was the “American system” of mass production.A third development was the application of new technologies to industrial task.A fourth development was the emergence of new forms of business organization—the bank and the corporation.11.Civil Rights Movement
The civil rights movement was a worldwide political movement for equality before the law occurring between approximately 1950 and 1980.In many situations it took the form of campaigns of civil resistance aimed at achieving change by nonviolent forms of resistance.In some situations it was accompanied, or followed, by civil unrest and armed rebellion.The process was long and tenuous in many countries, and many of these movements did not fully achieve their goals although, the efforts of these movements did lead to improvements in the legal rights of previously oppressed groups of people.12.Martin luther King
Martin Luther King, Jr.(January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968)was an American clergyman, activist, and prominent leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement.He is best known for being an iconic figure in the advancement of civil rights in the United States and around the world, using nonviolent methods following the teachings of Mahatma Gandhi.King is often presented as a heroic leader in the history of modern American liberalism.A Baptist minister, King became a civil rights activist early in his career.He led the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott and helped found the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1957, serving as its first president.King's efforts led to the 1963 March on Washington, where King delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech.There, he expanded American values to include the vision of a color blind society, and established his reputation as one of the greatest orators in American history.13.Counterculture
In the wake of the Free Speech Movement and the New Left,there appeared a phenomenon that historians called the “counterculture.”the counterculture rejected capitalism and other American principles.they had morals different from those taught by their parents.some groups of youth tried to construct different ways of life.among the most famous were the hippies.they sought new experience through dropping out,and drug taking.but it was music,rock music in particular,that became the chief vehicle for the counter cultural assault on the traditional American society.the counterculture exerted a great influence upon people's attitudes toward social morals,marriage,career and success.14、Hippies
The hippies called themselves “the love generation.” Hippiness became their only goal in life.Their music was different from any other music, and the words they sang sounded rebellious to older people.Small groups of youth lived together in cities like San Francisco,turning their lives into one big party.They wore long hair,strange and colorful clothes and many of them used drugs.They went in huge numbers to rock music concerts, and tyey made very interesting news on TV.15.Multiculturalism in Canada
Multiculturalism in Canada was adopted as the official policy of the Canadian government during the prime ministership of Pierre Elliot Trudeau in the 1970s and 1980s.The Canadian government has often been described as the instigator of multicultural ideology because of its public emphasis on the social importance of immigration.Multiculturalism is reflected in the law through the Canadian Multiculturalism Act and section 27 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

峽嶺湖筆產(chǎn)于高橋鎮(zhèn)的峽嶺、桃?guī)X等村,以選材精良、制作精心、尖齊健圓,深受書畫家稱贊,尤其是當(dāng)?shù)厣L(zhǎng)的“青苦”竹,為制作湖筆的上乘材料。峽嶺湖筆,筆毫挺拔而堅(jiān)韌,筆桿潔凈而光滑,書寫作畫,柔中有剛,行筆圓潤枯濕相參。著名書畫家周昌谷先生曾稱峽嶺湖筆“選材精良,制作精心,藝事一樂也”。
峽嶺湖筆的筆桿,采用坑西苦竹制成。一是色澤好。愈經(jīng)水漂摩搓,愈是滑潤耐手;存放年代愈久,愈見光亮如油。二是質(zhì)地堅(jiān)韌。用刀絞削不破不裂,竹渣薄如扇頁,明透鑒人。這樣的苦竹,觀之瘦勁典雅,掂之圓渾凝重,是制作筆桿的上品。而且這種竹是立冬以后砍伐的,筆桿不易蟲蛀。
峽嶺湖筆的筆毛挑選也很有講究。羊毛采用頭頸、四腿和胯間的毛鋒毛;山兔毛采用背部的白毫、紫毫,寧精而少,不粗不濫。傳統(tǒng)湖筆的筆毫具有筆鋒尖銳、修削整齊、豐滿圓潤、勁健有力的獨(dú)特風(fēng)格。
