CANADA
Canada is a country located in the northern part of North America. Its ten provinces and three territories extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific and northward into the Arctic Ocean, covering 9.98 million square kilometers (3.85 million square miles), making it the world’s second-largest country by total area. Canada’s southern border with the United States is the world’s longest land border.
The majority of the country has a cold or severely cold winter climate, but southerly areas are warm in summer. Canada is sparsely populated, with the majority of its land area being dominated by forests and tundra. As a result, its population is highly urbanized, with over 80 percent of its inhabitants concentrated in large and medium-sized cities, many near the southern border. Its capital is Ottawa, and its three largest metropolitan areas are Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver.
Canada Provincial Map
Provinces and territories are the first-level administrative unit in Canada. Overall, there are 10 provinces and 3 territories. From west to east, the 10 provinces are British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia. Territories occupy the northern region of Canada, which includes Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut.

How to travel successfully
Well, lots of people enjoy travelling. It's really interesting to see new places, small towns and great cities, exotic islands and cultural centres. People travel to different parts of the world and use various means of transport, such as buses, trains, ships and airplanes. Besides, there are those who prefer hiking and backpacking. Most people travel for pleasure, some people travel on business. There are those who work and travel or study and travel. Such people combine work and pleasure.
Many people prefer to travel light and they don't take much luggage on a trip. There are also those who take several suitcases with lots of things.
When you start getting
ready for a trip you should think of a number of things beforehand. For
example, you should acquaint yourself with the geography of the
route and region of travel. Besides, you should arrange, if
possible, to have only one piece of luggage to look after. When
travelling by air, wear loose, comfortable shoes that can be
easily slipped on and off. The most suitable shoes for flying might be sandals
or flip-flops as you are required to take them off at the security checks. If
you plan going camping or hiking, remember to bring maps that you
can carry along with you. Research your destination on-line to
find reviews of hotels, resorts and attractions before deciding on your
travel plans. Make sure to research
the current status of social and political events in the country you'll
be visiting. This will allow you to avoid dangerous situations.
§ A responsible traveller should follow the traveller's code of conduct. It is
a set of rules one should follow not to do any harm to the people and place he
or she is visiting. One of the main rules is to respect the fragile Earth -
both land and sea.
§ You shouldn't disturb animals, plants or their natural
habitat.
§ You shouldn't leave litter or graffiti.
§ You should keep noise to an appropriate level.
§ You should respect local cultural traditions and
customs by dressing and acting in a polite way.
§ You should always ask before photographing and
video-recording people.
§ You should learn a few basics in the local language -
it will be appreciated.
§ Try to reduce usage of natural resources, for example
fresh water.
§ You should support local economies - buy what the locals
produce.
§ Be ready to tip - in some economies people rely on
their tips.
§ Support local craftsmen by buying handicrafts.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Is it curse or a blessing?
Who is more intelligent man or computer?
Computers are certainly more adept at solving quandaries that benefit from their unique skillset, but humans hold the edge on tasks that machines simply can't perform. Not yet, anyway. Computers can take in and process certain kinds of information much faster than we can.
Haunted by science fiction
Ira Basen – June 2, 2017
Remember HAL?
The HAL 9000 computer was the super smart machine in charge of the Discovery One space station in Stanley Kubrick's classic 1968 movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. For millions of moviegoers, it was their first look at a computer that could think and respond like a human, and it did not go well.
In one of the film's pivotal scenes, the two astronauts living in the space station try to return from a mission outside the spacecraft, only to discover that HAL won't allow them back in.
"Open the pod bay doors, please, HAL," Dave, one of astronauts, demands several times.
"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that," HAL finally replies. "I know that you and Frank were planning to disconnect me, and I'm afraid that's something that I can't allow to happen."
The astronauts were finally able to re-enter the spacecraft and disable HAL, but the image of a sentient computer going rogue and trying to destroy its creators has haunted many people's perceptions of artificial intelligence ever since.

Разница между can и may?
Рассмотрим два примера:
I can draw a picture. – Я могу нарисовать картину (=У меня есть физические способности к рисованию.)
She may take this chair. – Ей можно взять этот стул (=Ей разрешили взять этот стул.)
Главная и принципиальная разница между may и can заключается в том, что первый глагол обозначает разрешение, а второй – способность делать что-либо.
Запомните следующие формулы:
- May = позволение
- Can = физическая возможность
В каких случаях стоит употреблять can?
Если вы говорите о чем-то, что способны сделать физически
- Jane can ride a horse for hours. – Джейн может часами ездить верхом.
I can’t sleep less than 6 hours. – Я не могу спать менее 6 часов.
They can swim several kilometers. – Они могут проплыть несколько километров. - При упоминании навыков
She can play the violin. – Она может играть на скрипке.
John can solve chemical equations. – Джон может решать химические уравнения. - При постановке вопросов с глаголом can, вы подразумеваете умения или способность.
Can Jane drive a car? – Джейн может водить машину?
Can a train go without railway? – Поезд может ездить без железной дорогу? - Если вы хотите выразить сомнение по поводу высказывания, недоверие к сказанному или же удивление
It can’t be the truth! – Это не может быть правдой!
You can’t have gone there! – Ты не мог пойти туда!
В каких случаях стоит употреблять may?
- Если вы хотите высказать некое предположение касательно какого-либо высказывания.
Take a sweater, it may be cold tonight. – Возьми с собой свитер. Вечером, вероятно, будет холодно.
This table is sold but there may be other options. – Этот стол уже продан, но должны быть другие варианты. - Для разрешения или запрета
Этот пункт считается устаревшим. !!!!!! Русские грамматики по-прежнему преподают данное правило, хотя англоязычное население считает фразу типа «May I…» (могу я) пережитком прошлого. Как писал Ричард Кинг в своих заметках, последний раз он слышал фразу «may I» в фильме 1962 года.
May I add some facts? – Могу я добавить несколько фактов?
They may not sit here. – Сидеть здесь запрещено.
Случаи, когда оба варианта уместны
Несмотря на то что существует may/can разница, в некоторых случаях оба глагола могут взаимозаменяться.
К таким ситуациям относятся следующие.
1. Спрашивать или давать разрешение
Как уже упоминалось выше, «may» считается устаревшим вариантом и чаще заменяется в речи на «can».
Получается, если вы спрашиваете разрешение, вы запросто можете сказать «Can I…», и это не будет ошибкой.
Can I take cookies? – Можно я возьму печенье?
2. Запрещать что-либо
Хотя выше мы описывали, что запрет обозначается глаголом may, can также может употребляться.
Чем отличается can от may в данном контексте?
Cannot – относится к общим запретам. То есть если что-либо запрещено в общем.
May not часто используется, если запрет относится к конкретному лицу.
Давайте рассмотрим на примерах:
You cannot speak loudly in museums. – В музеях нельзя говорить громко.
You may not go with your boyfriend, me and dad do not like him. – Тебе нельзя ехать с парнем. Мне и папе он не нравится.
