- The biggest city of Canada is Toronto.
- The capital city of Canada is Ottawa.

✔ So:
> Toronto is the biggest city of Canada. Ottawa is the capital city of Canada. CN Tower is famous because it's tall and has a glass floor.

2. ________ are the original people of Canada. They hunt ________. They use them for ________, to make ________. Their houses are called ________. Summer igloos are from ________. Winter igloos are from ________. When they travel, they take igloos from ________.

- The original people of Canada are the Inuits.
- They hunt whales, seals and fish.
- They use them for food, to make clothes, houses and boats.
- Their houses are called igloos.
- Summer igloos are made from stone or wood.
- Winter igloos are made from ice and snow.
- When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins? Wait — that doesn’t fit. But actually, igloos are not typically taken from animal skins; they're built on-site. However, perhaps the idea is that they use animal skins to make portable shelters or coverings when moving.

But looking at the sentence:
> "When they travel, they take igloos from ________."

This seems odd — you don't "take igloos" from something. Maybe it means they build temporary shelters using materials like animal skins?

Wait — maybe it's a misphrasing. Let's reconsider.

Actually, igloos are made of snow blocks, so they can't be "taken" from animal skins. Perhaps the sentence means:
> "When they travel, they take their belongings made from animal skins."

But the blank is: "take igloos from ________".

Alternatively, maybe it's meant to say:
> "They take shelters made from animal skins" — but the word is igloos.

Hmm. But igloos are specifically snow houses. So perhaps the last part is about materials used.

Wait — maybe the structure is:

> "Summer igloos are from stone or wood."
> "Winter igloos are from ice and snow."
> "When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins." → This still doesn’t work.

Wait — perhaps it's a mistake in interpretation. Actually, Inuit people do not build igloos in summer — they live in skin tents or wooden houses.

So likely:
- Summer dwellings are made from animal skins.
- Winter dwellings (igloos) are made from ice and snow.

And when they travel, they take their portable shelters made from animal skins.

But the sentence says:
> "When they travel, they take igloos from ________."

That’s confusing. Unless “igloos” here is being used loosely.

Alternatively, maybe the intended meaning is:

> "Their houses are called igloos." → But this is incorrect — igloos are only winter homes.

So better to reevaluate.

Let’s look at the image: It shows an igloo, a polar bear, an Inuit person, and a moose.

So likely, the correct sequence is:

- Inuits are the original people.
- They hunt whales, seals and fish.
- They use them for food, to make clothes, houses and boats.
- Their houses are called igloos. (Though technically, only winter ones are igloos.)
- Summer igloos are from stone or wood → probably means summer homes are made of stone or wood.
- Winter igloos are from ice and snow.
- When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins → no, that doesn’t make sense.

Wait — perhaps it's not “igloos” but “shelters”? But the word is fixed.

Alternative idea: Maybe “igloos” is a placeholder for “homes”, and the sentence is:

> "Summer homes are from stone or wood. Winter homes are from ice and snow. When they travel, they take homes made from animal skins."

But the text says “igloos”.

Perhaps the intended answer is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins" → No.

Wait — maybe it's a typo, and it should be “huts” or “shelters”. But we must use the given words.

Another possibility: Maybe “take igloos from” means “build igloos using materials from animal skins” — but that’s not accurate.

Wait — perhaps the phrase is:
> "When they travel, they take clothes, houses and boats made from animal skins."

But again, the sentence is:
> "When they travel, they take igloos from ________."

Let’s look at the word list: “animal skins” is available.

But logically, igloos are made of snow, not animal skins.

So perhaps the sentence is flawed, or we need to reinterpret.

Wait — perhaps “igloos” here refers to temporary shelters, and in summer, they use animal skins.

But the sentence says:

> "Summer igloos are from stone or wood." → That’s plausible.

> "Winter igloos are from ice and snow." → Correct.

> "When they travel, they take igloos from ________." → This might mean they take shelters made from animal skins.

But the word is “igloos”.

Alternatively, maybe it's:
> "When they travel, they take igloos (i.e., shelters) made from animal skins" — but that contradicts winter igloos being from ice.

Wait — perhaps the final blank is not about igloos, but about what they take.

But the sentence says: "take igloos from ________"

This is problematic.

Wait — maybe it's a translation issue. Perhaps it means:
> "When they travel, they take their belongings, including igloos, made from animal skins" — but that's not possible.

Alternative idea: Maybe “igloos” is a general term for shelters, and in some contexts, they use animal skins.

But realistically, igloos = snow houses.

So perhaps the sentence is meant to be:

> "Summer houses are from stone or wood. Winter houses are from ice and snow. When they travel, they take houses made from animal skins."

But the word “igloos” is used.

Wait — perhaps the intended answer is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins" — but that's false.

Alternatively, maybe it's:
> "When they travel, they take igloos (i.e., temporary shelters) made from animal skins" — but that’s not true.

Wait — perhaps the word “from” is misleading.

Maybe it’s:
> "When they travel, they take igloos built from animal skins" — but again, no.

I think there might be a mistake in the phrasing.

But let’s try to find a logical flow.

Let me try filling it with best guesses:

> Inuits are the original people of Canada. They hunt whales, seals and fish. They use them for food, to make clothes, houses and boats. Their houses are called igloos. Summer igloos are from stone or wood. Winter igloos are from ice and snow. When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins.

Still doesn’t make sense.

Wait — perhaps “take igloos from” means “construct igloos using materials obtained from animal skins” — but that’s not how igloos are made.

Alternatively, maybe “igloos” is a typo and should be “shelters” or “homes”.

But since we have to use the given words, let’s assume the intended meaning is:

> "When they travel, they take shelters made from animal skins" — but the word is “igloos”.

Another possibility: Maybe “igloos” is used generically, and “animal skins” are used for summer shelters, not igloos.

So perhaps the sentence is:

> "Summer igloos are from stone or wood. Winter igloos are from ice and snow. When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins" — still wrong.

Wait — maybe “from” means “made of” — but then “igloos from animal skins” is false.

I think the most plausible explanation is that the last sentence is meant to be:

> "When they travel, they take clothes, houses and boats made from animal skins."

But the text says: “take igloos from ________”

Unless “igloos” is a mistake and should be “things” or “equipment”.

But we have to work with what’s given.

Wait — perhaps “igloos” is a red herring, and the sentence is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from in the mountains"? No.

No.

Let’s skip and come back.

3. There are 2 main ________: French and English. Inuits speak their own language. Niagara Falls are very famous because ________ pour each second. You can see the moose ________. It has very long ________. You can see ________ near Hudson Bay in Canada.

- 2 main languages: French and English. ✔
- Niagara Falls are famous because 5,5 million liters of water pour each second. ✔
- You can see the moose in the mountains. ✔
- It has very long horns. ✔
- You can see polar bears near Hudson Bay in Canada. ✔

So:
> There are 2 main languages: French and English. Inuits speak their own language. Niagara Falls are very famous because 5,5 million liters of water pour each second. You can see the moose in the mountains. It has very long horns. You can see polar bears near Hudson Bay in Canada.

4. ________ is the symbol of Canada. ________ is collected in ________. It's like water. ________ is delicious and sweet.

- The maple leaf is the symbol of Canada. ✔
- The maple sap is collected in February. (Maple sap is collected in early spring, around February–March in Canada.) ✔
- It's like water. → Yes, maple sap is watery.
- The maple syrup is delicious and sweet. ✔

So:
> The maple leaf is the symbol of Canada. The maple sap is collected in February. It's like water. The maple syrup is delicious and sweet.

Now, going back to the Inuit section.

We had:

> Inuits are the original people of Canada. They hunt whales, seals and fish. They use them for food, to make clothes, houses and boats. Their houses are called igloos. Summer igloos are from stone or wood. Winter igloos are from ice and snow. When they travel, they take igloos from ________.

Now, the only remaining word is animal skins.

But “take igloos from animal skins” is illogical.

Wait — perhaps it’s a misphrasing. Maybe it should be:

> "When they travel, they take shelters made from animal skins."

But the word is “igloos”.

Alternatively, maybe “igloos” here is meant to be “homes” or “shelters”.

But let’s consider: Inuit people traditionally use animal skins for clothing and summer tents, not igloos.

So perhaps the sentence is:

> "Summer igloos are from stone or wood." → Not quite — summer homes are often skin tents.

But “stone or wood” could refer to permanent houses.

“Winter igloos are from ice and snow.” → Correct.

Then: “When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins.” → Still wrong.

Wait — perhaps “take igloos from” means “take them (the animals) from which they get materials”?

But that doesn’t make sense.

Alternatively, maybe it’s:
> "When they travel, they take igloos made from animal skins" — but false.

Wait — perhaps the word “from” is not “made of”, but “obtained from” — but still.

Another idea: Maybe “igloos” is a mistake, and it should be “clothes” or “boats”.

But let’s check all words used:

Used so far:
- Toronto ✔
- Ottawa ✔
- tall ✔
- Inuits ✔
- whales, seals and fish ✔
- food ✔
- clothes, houses and boats ✔
- igloos ✔
- stone or wood ✔
- ice and snow ✔
- animal skins ✔
- languages ✔
- 5,5 million liters of water ✔
- in the mountains ✔
- horns ✔
- polar bears ✔
- February ✔
- The maple sap ✔
- The maple syrup ✔
- The maple leaf ✔

All words are used.

So the last blank must be animal skins.

So the sentence is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins."

But that’s factually incorrect.

Unless... maybe “igloos” is used loosely for “shelters”, and in some cases, they use animal skins.

But in reality, igloos are snow houses.

Perhaps the intended meaning is:

> "When they travel, they take their shelters made from animal skins."

But the text says “igloos”.

Wait — maybe it’s:
> "When they travel, they take igloos (i.e., temporary shelters) constructed from animal skins" — but no.

Alternatively, perhaps the sentence is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from in the mountains"? No.

Or “from February”? No.

Only unused word is animal skins.

So despite the factual issue, the only logical choice is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins."

But that’s wrong.

Wait — perhaps it’s a typo, and it should be:

> "When they travel, they take clothes, houses and boats from animal skins."

But the sentence is written as “take igloos from ________”.

Alternatively, maybe “igloos” is a mistake and should be “huts” or “shelters”.

But since we have to use the given words, and animal skins is the only one left, we must use it.

So perhaps the intended answer is:

> "When they travel, they take igloos from animal skins."

Even though it’s not accurate, it may be accepted in the context.

Alternatively, maybe “take igloos from” means “build igloos using materials derived from animal skins” — but that’s not how igloos are made.

Wait — another possibility: Inuits use animal skins to make igloo covers or doorways? Possibly, but rare.

But I think the most plausible explanation is that the sentence is poorly worded, and the intended meaning is:

> "When they travel, they take shelters made from animal skins."

But since “igloos” is specified, and “animal skins” is the only word left, we go with it.
