For looking at this picture I can tell that this is a big building. The security system is very nice, around the building there not only has enclosure but around the enclosure there also has a moat with suspension bridge. If someone who try to get into the house without known, I think that will never happened in Champlain's habitation.


5. The fort was a natural fort because Quebec had towering cliffs.
a.Find a picture of towering cliffs in Quebec. Search in Google using "Quebec and towering cliffs".

The cliffs are all form from natural, like the earthquake can early to form cliffs. In the first picture we can see the cliffs are towering and it's useful, because it can make people who walking inside have a better safety and I think during the hot summer, living between two cliffs is the best choices.

6. What did you learn today? Explain in 5-8 sentences.
Today we spend two period in the computer lab, I really learned a lot of informations. the big building of Champlain's habitation and a great moat around it. the cliffs, towering and useful. and the St.Lawrence. I try to working as hard as i can do in the computer lab today but when we finished the class I realize I forget to save what I've done in class. So, I have to type the homework one more time. O(∩_∩)O But I'm not feel sad, this is another way to practice my typing skill so that i can type faster when the Provencal exam comes.

Bonus1. There is a moat around Champlain's habitation. Why is that important?

There is a moat around Champlain's habitation is very important, because the moat can defence invasion, there always have a drawbridge on moat. If the invasion is coming, people lived inside can drag up the drawbridge that the people who want to get into the habitation is impossible to make it.

2. Can you find a picture of a moat? Post it.
