1. An alliance is when several people or groups unite together. In their cooperation, everyone works together for their common purpose. By working together, every one of them wins profits. At the same time, their power is strengthened.
2. When Champlain first arrived in Canada, he nor his crew was accustomed to the climate and terrain. To succeed in his planned business, he had to look for a partner. This group had to familiar with all the local events. At the same time, they can't be too feeble. The most suitable group was the Huron Empire. They were native people who could offer Champlain plenty of assistance. Both of them could also benefit each other during their alliance.
3. a) The picture looks as though it was taken in the forest near a river. There are a lot of boats moored beside the shore. Two or three people are rowing a boat in the forest. It seems very peculiar. The two groups of people are having a battle. In their hands are arrows and bows. Several people are hurt, and lying on the ground. Everyone is naked in the picture.
b) I don't think this is a realistic picture because of the boat in the forest and the naked people. A forest is supposed to be full of trees and dirt. How can they paddle the boat then? At that time, there was already fur trading, which implies that clothes already exist. I don't think anyone would want to be naked when they have the opportunity to wear clothes in the olden times.
4. a) Georgian Bay is surrounded by the French River, Bustard Islands, Parry Sound Depot Harbor, Hope Island and Cove Island. It is beside Lake Huron.
b) Bay: a shoreline that is bigger than a cove but smaller than a gulf.
5. In the picture, there are some earth or rocks in the bay. They seem to be very soft and makes me feel the warmth. The clouds in the sky looks like soft cotton that would fall on us. Far away, there are some trees. It demonstrates peace in this boisterous world. The sun is shining brightly which gives the sky a golden jacket.
6. When I see the picture, I didn't feel the fear at once. The sky is very blue, which makes the picture seem not as powerful. However, the tree that is bending in the wind makes me feel the strength of the storm. The water that's boiling in the bay also looks very fierce. If the painter could make the sky into a dark colour, I'll feel the tempestuous of the storm.
7. I could feel the gale blowing at me and trees waving in the wind. The sky is in a dark colour which creates a sad atmosphere. The land seems to be full of despair and loneliness. There are a lot of natural animals there, such as the duck on the soft stone. The water makes the scene full of peace. The trees seem as though they will wither soon, but the strength inside them keeps them alive and strong. The internal power of all the biotic components is defeating the force that comes from the nature.
8. After establishing the New France, Champlain found an accesible way of gaining rapid development. He cooperated with a native group--Huron Empire. Their relationship can be symbolized by the word mutualism. Both of them is benefited through the teamwork. Champlain helped them to defeat the Iroquis while they became his navigator in the new area. It was a success as the geographic location provides natural protection for Champlain.
