In this picture, Jacques Cartier is in his boat. He is touching his dense beard and holding his right hand in his side. It looks like he is thinking about something important, perhaps it is his sailing. And he looks so serious, beecause he is in black coat, with black cap. This picture shows us that he has the sence of an expectional explorer--calm and clever.
<2>. Post 10 facts about Jacques Cartier.
Why is Cartier important for the history of Canada? In short, i think there're some reasons to explain it:
On June 9th, 1534, Cartier sailedinto the waters of the St.Lawrence River in eastern Canada. Although he couldn't travel up the tiver all the way to Asia, Cartier had in fact discovered an important waterway into the vast areas of Canada.
Scurvy is a disease caused by a lack of vitamin C, characterized by anaemia, spongy gums, bleeding beneath the skin, and (in infants) malformation of bones and teeth.
Relations between the St. Lawrence Huadenosaunees and French deteriorated over the winter. In spring, Cartier invited Donnacona to a feast also inviting his companions and seized them, during the journey to France twenty-five died of scurvy, only Donaconna and nine others, including his two sons of the tribe made it to France.
Donnacona was well treated in France, being looked after at the king's expense. however he soon took sick and died from European diseases.
No, if i were the iroquois people. I think the relationship between French and our Nation would be even worse. First, i feel very sad because of the dead of our great chief--Donnaconna. Also, we lost a lot of peole in France. When will they come back? or they dead too? That's a question. At least, i won't belive French anymore, because they would give us misfortune.

In this picture, Jacques Cartier's wearing is the same as picture1, he's still perky and serious, but the situation is different. The backgroud of this picture is a map, there'are Cartier' ship and some other boats in the map. Cartier is peering at his ship and the sailing rout. Also, he holds a globe, we can guess that he wants to find the correct rout to Asia. From his big eyes, we can know that he can think problems deeply and thoughtful. It shows that he want to achieve his dream of sailing the whole world.
