高中英语 乡间散步-AWalkintheCountry作文素材
乡间散步-A WalkintheCountryA Walk in the CountryIt was an early summer afternoon. The sun was shining brightly and warmly. Everything on the campus looked as if it had been sleeping for years. Aft er school my roommates and I decided to take a walk along the river near our school, instead of sta ying with our “Mr. Formula”①and “Mr s. Th eorem”② in the classroom.A fresh breeze③ played with our hair. In the blue sky, clouds were drifting④ here and there. We told each other stories and jokes. Songs and laughter could be heard now and then. It seemed that the world belonged to us and the earth was full of joys.We walked and walked. Before we knew it, it was nearly nightfall⑤ and all glowed red in the evening sunlight. Standing on the narrow country road, we felt a bit tired, thirsty and hungry. “Look, what is it?” one of us said, pointing to something red growing by the side of the road. It was a plant, bearing some fruit, which looked so inviting⑥ that we all eager to taste it. I picked one. To my happy surprise, it was a bit sweet. Everyone of us picked a lot. While eating the little red fruit, we talked of the wonderful time we had that afternoon. Then a country woman came. When she saw us eat ing the wild fruit she let out a cry of surprise. She told us it was used to poison snakes. That meant, we thought with horror, that we were in danger.The story that some poison for mice left in the kitchen killed a lovely baby came to my mind. The more we talked, the mor e we were frightened. All of a sudden someone mentioned the word “death”. We looked at each other not knowing what to do.Thinking of the coming death I felt the world was so dear that I was quite unwilling to leave her and time was so precious that I had no right to waste it.“I should have valued my life. How I love li fe!” I thought, “If I am still living tomorrow morning, it will be my second lif e. I will not waste time an y longer.”As soon as we were back at school we showed the red fruit to our biology teacher. She told us with a smile, “That is wild str awberry⑦. It is not poisonous.As the bell rang announcing it was time for self study, we had to enter the classroom without supper. Tho ugh I was hungry, I should waste no time, and I worked harder than ever. How valuable life is! How precious time is!。

71WORLD VISION 2012.NO.06Culture 文化·旅游于1804年,除了在英国湖区,别处很少能看到水仙花,不过每片土地都有其不一样的迷人之处。
即使是没什么出奇之处,不过是山谷里野草丛生,田野上牛羊成群,牲畜的粪便和泥土混合在一起,也能勾勒出一幅乡野行趣图卷来。
正如华兹华斯所热衷的,行走的乐趣一直都是诗人和作家灵感的源泉,现代威尔士作家劳埃德·琼斯第一本小说的灵感,就始于在故乡一千多英里的徒步。
他说:“那些不断变换的景致如此迷人,让我们释放心灵,视野焕然一新。
当我们行走时,和这个世界的相处最为怡然,因为一切都不紧不慢,尽在掌握。
”行走似乎能让思想放松,从而使沉思成为可能。
哲学家弗里德里希·尼采曾说过:“一切伟大的思想均源于行走。
”法国哲学家卢梭人生中的最后一部作品正是得益于在远离巴黎的埃蒙农维尔的小住,卢梭在此地品味大自然的美景,采集植物标本,并且创作了他脍炙人口的散文集《孤独漫步者的退想》。
在康德的家乡科尼斯堡有一条路被市政府命名为“哲学家之路”,康德生前每天都在这条路上散步。
正如他的传记作家所评价的:“康德的一生就像一个最规则的动词。
”这个规则动词首先规则的是他的散步。
他每天晚饭后都定时、定量散步,守时得像个钟摆,邻居们甚至根据他每天散步的情况来对表。
一些政治家也喜欢在行走中思考国家大事。
维多利亚时期首相、道德家威廉·格莱斯顿就热衷于每日步行,83岁高龄的他还在英国威尔士西北部的斯诺敦峰开创了一条新的徒步路线。
德国首相安吉拉·默克尔在援助希腊方案出台后,在暑期休假时选择在南蒂罗尔散步沉思。
当然了这次徒步并没让她有什么奇思妙想。
经济繁荣之路美国徒步客面临的最大问题是路线过于偏僻。
在阿巴拉契亚徒步路线上,常需耗时一周才能从一个镇走到下一个,因此优美的田园风光和完善的徒步路线让英国人成为了一个热爱徒步的民族。

19C 圆舞曲成为主流
圆舞曲代表:《邀舞》(韦伯)
英国的布鲁斯、快步舞,美国的 狐步舞,波斯顿华尔兹等舞种十分流 行,音乐多元化、地域化。
20C 爵士乐的出现使交谊舞进入 一个新的时期。

乡村舞之所以受到英国人的喜爱 , 与英国人的个性气质分不开 , 是英 国男士优雅、高贵、浪漫气质和贤淑、知性、婉约的女性风韵的典型 反映.
在当时的上流社会以跳欧洲宫廷舞为身份的象征,女士要充分在舞会 上体现出淑女的矜持与高贵,而男士,要表现出骑士的潇洒与风度。 参加者利用跳舞的机会展示自己华美的服饰、高贵的风度,以及无上 的地位和荣耀。
双纵队:
列好队形
行礼
变换队形
轮舞型:
乡村舞舞蹈者的修养主要表现在整体的协调感 和礼仪风度等方面。在舞蹈过程中,舞蹈者要身体 保持直立,表现出高贵的气质,双臂垂于两侧,随 音乐自然摆动。 在特定的队形中,按照预先规定的顺序一段接 一段地跳,舞步一般比较简单,但队形的变化和行 进路线却是严格精确的。

矜持又暧昧的交谊舞
一、乡村舞简介
英国乡村舞蹈是一种以交谊为目的民间舞蹈,是源于伊丽莎白统治时 期的一种独特的舞艺。
行走英国灵魂在乡村找到归宿
行走英国灵魂在乡村找到归宿作为世界上第一个实现城市化的国家,曾经饱受环境污染之苦的英国人深知打造田园城市的重要性,并把乡村文化看作英国留给现代生活的遗产“绿草如茵的平原,枝繁叶茂的参天大树,蜿蜒流淌的清泉,古拙威严的城堡、雕像,时隐时现的丛林绿篱,用花草精心装饰的乡间小屋……阴霾的清晨,达西先生走出自己美丽的庄园,跨过起伏的山丘,在清晨的薄雾中走向伊丽莎白的家……”《傲慢与偏见》里描述了英国乡村美丽的田园风光。
不要以为这是简?奥斯汀夸大的想象,其实小说中“达西庄园”的原型就在英格兰谢菲尔德附近的查兹沃斯庄园,距离伦敦仅四个小时的车程。
“出了伦敦都是村。
”虽然这是英国华人留学生们之间的玩笑话,但的确是英国城乡布局的现状。
作为世界上第一个实现城市化的国家,曾经饱受环境污染之苦的英国人深知打造田园城市的重要性,并把乡村文化看作英国留给现代生活的遗产。
如今的英国,即便像谢菲尔德这样的老工业城市,也能让人看山望水思乡愁。
在日本、中国等国追求核心城市的“大”的时候,英国伦敦城市群追求的是“小而精”的田园梦。
乡村,灵魂的归宿英国人对于乡村生活有着与生俱来的热爱。
在他们的脑子里,英国的灵魂只有在乡村才能找到归宿。
石墙、牧场、羊群、石桥、流水、人家……构成了最典型的英国乡村画面。
村子里,每一家的花园都收拾得精致典雅,树篱修剪得整整齐齐,路面干净整洁。
乡村生活远离尘嚣、自然祥和,犹如陶渊明笔下的世外桃源。
无怪乎旅英多年的林语堂曾说,“世界大同的理想生活,就是住英国乡村的房子”。
英国人的乡村情结大概要追溯到19世纪帝国时代,那些远征殖民地的英国人思念故乡时,凭空把英国想象成带有浪漫色彩的乡村。
据说第一次世界大战时,战场上的士兵们收到印有教堂、田野和花园,尤其是村庄的明信片,所受到的鼓舞远大于无数次地挥动国旗。
乡村不仅有迷人的景色,也有便利的生活设施。
除大商场、电影院、剧院、体育馆等大型设施外,各种基础设施和公共服务在乡间均有提供。
英语散文:A Walk In The Woods(林中漫步)
英语散文:A Walk In The Woods(林中漫步)I was puzzled! Why was this old woman making such a fuss about an old copse which was of no use to anybody? She had written letters to the local paper, even to a national, protesting about a projected by-pass to her village, and, looking at a map, the route was nowhere near where she lived and it wasn't as if the area was attractive. I was more than puzzled, I was intrigued.The enquiry into the route of the new by-pass to the village was due to take place shortly, and I wanted to know what it was that motivated her. So it was that I found myself knocking on a cottage door, being received by Mary Smith and then being taken for a walk to the woods."I've always loved this place", she said, "it has a lot of memories for me, and for others. We all used it. They called it 'Lovers lane'. It's not much of a lane, and it doesn't go anywhere important, but that's why we all came here. To be away from people, to be by ourselves " she added.It was indeed pleasant that day and the songs of many birds could be heard. Squirrels gazed from the branches, quite bold in their movements, obviously few people passed this way and they had nothing to fear. I could imagine the noise of vehicles passing through these peaceful woods when the by-pass was built, so I felt that she probably had something there but as I hold strong opinions about the needs of the community over-riding the opinions of private individuals, I said nothing. The village was quite a dangerous place because of the traffic especially for old people and children, their safety was more important to me than an old woman's whims."Take this tree", she said pausing after a short while. "To you it is just that, a tree. Not unlike many others here". She gently touched the bark. "Look here, under this branch, what can you see?""It looks as if someone has done a bit of carving with a knife" I said after a cursory inspection."Yes, that's what it is!" she said softly. "There are letters and a lover's heart".I looked again, this time more carefully. The heart was still there and there was a suggestion of an arrow through it. The letters on one side were indistinct, but on the other an 'R' was clearly visible with what looked like an 'I' after it. "Some budding romance?" I asked, "did you know who they were?""Oh yes, I knew them", said Mary Smith, "it says RH loves MS".I realised that I could be getting out of my depth, and longed to be in my office, away from here and this old lady, snug, and with a mug of tea in my hand.She went on …"He had a penknife with a spike for getting stones from a horse's hoof, and I helped him to carve my initials. We were very much in love, but he was going away, and could not tell me what he was involved in the army. I had guessed of course. It was the last evening we ever spent together,because he went away the next day, back to his Unit. "Mary Smith was quiet for a while, then she sobbed. "His mother showed me the telegram. 'Sergeant R Holmes ….. Killed in action in the 9)invasion of France'"."'I had hoped that you and Robin would one day get married" she said, "He was my only child, and I would have loved to be a Granny, they would have been such lovely babies'- she was like that! ""Two years later she too was dead. 'Pneumonia, following a chill on the chest' was what the doctor said, but I think it was an old fashioned broken heart. A child would have helped both ofus."There was a further pause. Mary Smith gently caressed the wounded tree, just as she would have caressed him. "And now they want to take our tree away from me." Another quiet sob, then she turned to me. "I was young and pretty then, I could have had anybody, I wasn't always the old woman you see here now. I had everything I wanted in life, a lovely man, health and a future to look forwards to".She paused again and looked around. The breeze gently moved through the leaves with a sighing sound. "There were others, of course, but not a patch on my Robin!" she said strongly. "And now I have nothing - except the memories this tree holds. If only I could get my hands on that awful man who writes in the paper about the value of the road they are going to build where we are standing now, I would tell him. Has he never loved, has he never lived, does he not know anything about memories? We were not the only ones, you know, I still meet some who came here as Robin and I did. Yes, I would tell him!"I turned away, sick at heart.我实在不明白!为什么这个年老女士会对一片毫无用处的老灌木林如此紧张呢?她给当地报纸写了信,甚至给全国性的报纸也写了信,对拟将在她们村子里修建小路的方案表示抗议。
走遍英国(十三)走在乡间的小路上
走遍英国(十三)走在乡间的小路上绚丽的村庄点缀着漂亮的各式小屋,浓浓的英论乡村风情伴着一丝古旧沧桑,科茨沃尔德吸引着无数的游客。
这一地区包括很多小村落,不能一一驻足,所以我从北向南选择了几个东线的小村(由于时间关系,西线的奇平卡姆登、百老汇、斯坦顿等村没去,下次有机会一定会去走走)。
从伊夫舍姆出发,半小时就到科茨地区,首先到达默顿因马什,这里在古罗马时期就是一个繁忙的过路站,现在也是如此,宽阔的主街上车水马龙,想找个停车的地方都找不到,所以我们也就没有停留。
从这里出发,沿A429南行,很快就到达上下斯洛特。
我们先到上斯洛特(Upper Slaughter),把车停在村中心的一棵大树下,就可以在这个只有十几户人家的小村里闲游。
山清水秀的小村落是如此的安静,一路上除了几个游客外,只遇到三个当地人,一个在自家小院里侍弄着田园,另两个是在小庄园里修剪花草。
如此精美的小村,每一个房屋都是一件艺术品,时间在这里仿佛可以静止,静止在几百年前的某一天,静止在画家的画笔间。
从上斯洛特到下斯洛特(Lower Slaughter)也就两公里左右的路程。
相比上斯洛特,这里要大一些,游客也明显多了一些。
漫步在艾河边,就如走进了明信片般的美景。
小河蜿蜒曲折,从村庄中间流过,沿着河就能走到老村的磨坊,这里有一间小巧的博物馆连着商店,这里的商品你都不忍心买走它,只有摆放在这里,才是最完美的安排。
从商店里出来的人几乎人手一个冰淇淋,黄豆芽同志当然不能放过,味道果然不同!推荐一下,2.5镑一个。
离下斯洛特3公里远,就是水上伯顿。
相比于安静美丽的斯洛特小村,水上伯顿就如一个游人如织的大公园,虽然也布满了漂亮的建筑,但是总感觉多了一份商业气息和俗气。
不过在这里吃饭的选择非常多,我们的两小时停车时间,也基本用于吃午饭了。
从水上继续向南,很快就会到达疾风河畔的伯福德(Burford)。
几个世纪以前的羊毛交易让这里达到了最繁荣时斯,时至今日,这里的氛围几乎没有任何改变,依旧弥漫着浓浓的中世纪风情。

英国伦敦老城区旅游攻略英语作文全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1An Adventure Through Old London Town!Hi everyone! My name is Charlie and I just went on the most amazing trip to London with my family. We spent a whole week exploring the oldest parts of the city and saw so many incredible sights. I can't wait to tell you all about it!Our adventure began right in the heart of London at the Tower of London. This massive stone fortress on the River Thames has stood guard over the city for nearly 1,000 years! Can you believe people have lived and worked inside those ancient walls since way back in 1066? We took a tour led by one of the famous Beefeater guards who still protect the Tower. With their red uniforms and funny hats, the Beefeaters looked just like something out of a storybook.Our guide showed us the towering White Tower which was built by William the Conqueror in 1078. We even glimpsed the incredible Crown Jewels - thousands of real diamonds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires glittering under heavy guard. The mostfamous jewel is the massive 530 carat Cullinan I diamond worth over 600 million! No way could my family afford a gem that pricey. We also saw the sombre execution site on Tower Green where famous historical figures like Anne Boleyn and Lady Jane Grey lost their heads. Standing there gave me chills down my spine.After the Tower, we crossed the iconic Tower Bridge which opened its huge steel arms to let a tall ship sail under. The bridge's two massive towers with their gorgeous blue iron latticework made it look like something from a medieval fairy tale castle. From there, we wandered into the narrow cobblestone streets of the City of London's financial district.At the Bank of England Museum, we saw the很受欢迎的金条展览,一间屋子里全是纯金砖!不敢相信人类居然开采了这么多金子。

介绍英国风景的作文英语100字全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1The Beautiful Scenery of EnglandEngland is a wonderful country with so many beautiful places to see! One of my favorite parts of England is the gorgeous countryside. The rolling green hills seem to stretch on forever, covered in lush grass and dotted with fluffy white sheep. Tall, ancient trees cast cool shadows over babbling brooks that wind their way through the hills. Little stone cottages with thatched roofs look like something out of a storybook.In the spring, the fields burst into color with wildflowers like buttercups, daisies, and red poppies. Buzzing bees flit from bloom to bloom. In autumn, the leaves on the trees turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold. I love kicking through piles of fallen leaves that crunch under my feet.The coasts of England are simply stunning too. Massive white cliffs like those at the Seven Sisters rise high above the crashing waves of the sea. Sandy beaches stretch for miles, perfect for building sandcastles and hunting for seashells. Insome places, you can find tide pools filled with tiny sea creatures when the tide goes out.I'll never forget the first time I saw the beautiful Lake District in northwest England. The sparkling blue lakes are surrounded by towering mountains and grassy hills. Grazing sheep dot the slopes and hiking trails wind through the valleys between the peaks. It's a peaceful, picturesque place that makes you feel tiny amidst such grand natural beauty.One of my favorite cities in England is the capital, London. It's a huge, bustling place with so much to see and do. I love wandering through charming neighborhoods like Notting Hill with its rows of colorful houses and quirky boutiques. The River Thames flows right through the heart of the city, spanned by impressive bridges like the iconic Tower Bridge.In London, you'll find world-famous landmarks like Buckingham Palace, St Paul's Cathedral, and the Houses of Parliament with its striking clock tower known as Big Ben. The city is filled with fantastic museums too, like the Natural History Museum and the British Museum. You could spend weeks in London and still not see everything!Historic castles and stately manor homes are scattered all across the English countryside as well. Some are crumbling ruinswhile others have been perfectly preserved. I always feel like a medieval knight or princess when I explore the towering stone walls, elaborate gardens, and lavishly decorated rooms of these incredible buildings. Castles like Warwick Castle and estates like Blenheim Palace really give you a sense of England's long, storied history.Whether you explore the peaceful countryside, visit the dramatic coastlines, take in the breathtaking natural beauty of the Lake District, wander the bustling streets of London, or tour the striking historic castles and manors, England has so much incredible scenery to offer. I feel so fortunate to have been able to experience the diverse landscapes and sights of this amazing country. England's scenery is truly second to none!篇2The Gorgeous Landscapes of EnglandEngland is a amazing country with so many pretty landscapes to explore! From rolling green hills to rocky cliffs by the ocean, there are all sorts of beautiful scenery. I went on a trip around England with my family and got to see lots of the lovely landscapes. Let me tell you about some of my favorites!The Lake District is one of the most popular places for hiking and enjoying nature in England. It's in the northwest part of the country and has tons of gorgeous lakes surrounded by huge mountains and hills. My family went on a few hikes around some of the bigger lakes like Windermere and Ullswater. The views were just breathtaking with the bright blue waters sparkling in the sun and the mountains towering all around. We even got to take a boat ride across Derwent Water which was so peaceful and relaxing. I loved looking at the little islands and hearing the ducks splashing in the water. The Lake District has some really cute little villages too with traditional stone houses and friendly people selling tasty treats.Another amazing landscape in England is the sandy beaches and rocky cliffs along the coastline. We visited some areas in Cornwall down in the far southwest corner. The beaches there have the most incredible white sand and the water is this brilliant turquoise color. We had so much fun building sandcastles, collecting seashells, and playing in the waves. But it was also really cool to see the dramatic cliffs rising up from the ocean with wind-swept grass on top. We went on a long hike along the South West Coast Path with views of the cliffs jutting out into the sea. It felt like we were walking on the edge of the world! Thelittle seaside towns in Cornwall were adorable too with cobblestone streets and fishing boats bobbing in the harbors.Up in northern England, we visited the Yorkshire Dales which was another breathtakingly beautiful area of rugged landscapes. There were endless stretches of windswept, heather-covered moorlands with dry stone walls crisscrossing over the hills as far as the eye could see. The lonely valleys felt wild and ancient. We did lots of hiking and saw tons of woolly sheep grazing on the hills. I loved climbing up to look out over the vast, open expanses of moorland stretching in every direction. The villages in the Yorkshire Dales looked pulled from an old storybook with charming pubs, churches, and homes built from the iconic local grey stone. One of my favorite places was the huge limestone cliffs of Malham Cove towering 230 feet tall!England truly has some of the most gorgeous landscapes in the world. From the mountains and lakes to the sandy beaches and seaside cliffs to the rolling hills and moors, there is just endless stunning scenery to explore.

The little villages in the Lake District are very charming too, with stone cottages and friendly locals.Another spot I love is the beaches along the southern coast. The pebble beaches have a relaxing sound as the waves gently roll in. You can spend hours just walking along collecting pretty shells and colorful rocks. The white cliffs towering above some of the beaches are stunning. My parents told me the cliffs are made of chalk and they've been carved away by the sea over millions of years!The countryside in England has so many delightful places to explore as well. I went on a day trip with my class to the Peak District and we hiked through green rolling hills dotted with fluffy sheep. We even saw an ancient stone circle that was built a long, long time ago. The fresh country air smelled wonderful. I also really enjoyed our visit to the New Forest, which is an awesome wooded area full of ponies roaming around! We got to pet and feed the friendly ponies.My family and I have gone on hiking trails through the gorgeous English countryside in places like the Cotswolds region too. The Cotswolds has quaint villages built from golden-colored stone and surrounded by green meadows. It looks like something out of a storybook! We wandered along babbling brooks and walked through wildflower fields full of colorful blooms. The views in the Yorkshire Dales were breathtaking aswell with dramatic limestone cliffs and winding rivers. I felt so tiny compared to the massive rocky crags towering above.England really does have extraordinarily pretty scenery everywhere you go. From bucolic countryside to rugged coastlines to iconic city landmarks, there's so much natural beauty to admire. The wonderful landscape paintings and photographs I've seen simply can't do justice to how magnificent the views are in person. I'm already eager to go explore more of this picturesque island on my next trip! England's scenery is truly something every nature lover needs to experience.篇5The Beautiful Scenery of EnglandEngland is a really pretty country with lots of nice scenery to see. My family took a trip there last summer and we got to visit many different places. I want to tell you all about the lovely landscapes we saw!First, we went to the Lake District in the northwestern part of England. This is a mountainous region with beautiful lakes, valleys, and hills. We stayed in a little town called Grasmere and went hiking every day. The hikes were tiring with all the ups and downs, but the views were so worth it! We could see glitteringlakes surrounded by grassy slopes and craggy peaks. Sheep dotted the hillsides and the air smelled fresh and clean. One of my favorite spots was by Rydal Water where we had a picnic lunch. The lake was perfectly still like a mirror reflecting the puffy clouds above.After the Lake District, we traveled down to Wiltshire to see the ancient stone circles at Avebury and Stonehenge. The stones at Avebury make a massive circle covering a whole village! You can walk right among the huge standing stones which are taller than a double-decker bus. Stonehenge was even more impressive, with its iconic ring of massive rocks. We arrived at sunrise and the morning sunlight streaming through the stones was magical. It made me imagine what rituals the ancient people must have performed there thousands of years ago. The open countryside around the stone circles was covered in fields of golden wheat swaying in the breeze.Next, we went down to the coast in Dorset. The first place we visited was Durdle Door, a naturally formed arched rock formation in the sea cliffs. The turquoise water was so clear and inviting that we couldn't resist going for a swim! I loved exploring the little beach and rock pools nearby too and finding all sorts of shells and sea creatures. We also spent a day at thestunning Lulworth Cove, a circular cove with stacks of layered limestone along the shoreline. The different shades of brown, yellow, and grey made cool patterns in the rocks. Our last stop was Chesil Beach, an enormous 18-mile long shingle beach made up of millions of pebbles. The sound of the waves crunching against all those pebbles was mesmerizing.From the coast, we headed inland to the rolling hills and meadows of the Cotswolds region. We stayed in the most adorable villages made of warm honey-colored stone houses with thatched roofs. Everything was so picturesque, like something from a storybook! We went on walks through the countryside past fields of grazing sheep and dry stone walls crisscrossing the hills. My favorite thing was the miles and miles of stone walls dividing up the pastures. Some of them looked hundreds of years old! We also explored some of the pretty towns like Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, and Chipping Campden. They had old churches, charming tea rooms, and little streams running alongside the streets.Our last stop was London, but in the city we had less time for scenic views and spent more time seeing famous landmarks like Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, and Big Ben. Still, on our day trip to Windsor we enjoyed the lovely views across theRiver Thames of Windsor Castle and Eton College. And we went boating one day in Hyde Park which had gorgeous gardens, meadows, and ponds.England has such a variety of breathtaking scenery packed into a relatively small island. From the craggy peaks and tranquil lakes up north, to the dramatic seaside cliffs and beaches along the coast, to the gently rolling hills and quaint villages inland - there is natural beauty everywhere you look. My family took so many pictures but they just can't capture how magnificent the landscapes were in person. Hopefully someday I'll get to go back and experience England's scenic splendors again!篇6England's Beautiful SceneryHi there! My name is Emma and I'm 10 years old. Today I want to tell you all about the amazing landscapes across England, the country where I live. Get ready to be wowed by rolling green hills, towering cliffs, glistening lakes, and so much more!Let's start our journey in the countryside. One of my favorite places is the Cotswolds, a gorgeous area with little villages built from honey-colored stone. The cottages have thatched roofs and pretty gardens. Surrounded by gentle hills and meadows, it lookslike something out of a storybook! I love exploring the narrow, winding lanes and spotting sheep grazing in the fields.Another amazing countryside spot is the Lake District in northwest England. With its soaring mountains, deep valleys, and glistening lakes, it's a true hiker's paradise. My family and I have climbed to the top of peaks like Scafell Pike and taken in the breathtaking views across the rugged landscape. The lakes like Windermere are perfect for boating, swimming, and picnicking too!While the countryside is beautiful, England's coastline is just as incredible. I'm in awe of the massive white cliffs towering over the ocean at places like the Seven Sisters in Sussex and the White Cliffs of Dover. They look almost glowing against the blue water. My brother and I have so much fun hunting for fossils in the rocks along the beach.Up in Northumberland, you'll find sweeping sandy beaches and mighty castles perched right on the seaside. We visited Bamburgh Castle last summer and I felt like a real princess exploring the ramparts and towers. Just down the coast is the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, only accessible when the tide is out. It's such an otherworldly feeling walking across the ancient pathways!From coastal scenes to rugged moors, England has so many different and amazing landscapes. In the heart of Yorkshire, you can roam for miles across the wild, windswept North York Moors bursting with purple heather. Or head to the rocky peaks and deep valleys of the Peak District, with endless opportunities for rock climbing, caving, and more adventures.My family took a trip to Cornwall recently, all the way down in the southwest corner of England. The coastline there isjaw-droppingly beautiful, with crashing waves, secret coves, and picturesque fishing villages like Port Isaac. We loved exploring the incredible beaches and sea caves. And the area around St. Michael's Mount, with the medieval church perched atop a little tidal island, felt almost magical.I've only scratched the surface when it comes to England's incredible scenery. From the rolling Chiltern Hills to the ancient woodlands of the New Forest, the diversity of landscapes seems never-ending. I feel so lucky to live in a small but amazingly varied country with such natural beauty around every corner.Whether you love hiking up craggy peaks, strolling along sandy shores, or just admiring the patchwork of green fields, England has scenery to suit every taste. I can't wait until I'm old enough to start really exploring more of this country's treasuresfor myself. For now, I'll keep convincing my parents to take me on as many UK adventures as possible. With its history, culture, and landscapes all woven together, England is a real-life storybook waiting to be discovered!。

Take Away English 随身英语22 November 2012Walking tall 漫步英国乡间Vocabulary: countryside 词汇:乡村An estimated eight million people in Britain Array enjoy rambling in the Peak District everyyear.But what many who enjoy outdoor pursuitsdon't know is that their "right to roam" waswon by men who sacrificed their own freedomto gain access to the countryside for all.In 1932 wealthy landowners had exclusiveuse of large areas of moorlands for grouseshooting.Walkers were kept out by guards, until a group of 400 people from Manchester and Yorkshire, led by Benny Rothman, engaged on a mass trespass. The campaigner was jailed with four other men.The event is credited by many with starting a movement that paved the way for the establishment of national parks.Mr Rothman died in 2002 but he is now being honoured for his contribution with the unveiling of a blue plaque on his former home in Crofton Avenue, Timperley, Greater Manchester.Retired professor, Harry, who followed in his father's footsteps by specialising in environmental issues, says: "He was a very optimistic man and he made the best of it when he went to prison. It didn't put him off campaigning, he went on campaigning on environmental issues most of his life."Mr Rothman did live to see the Countryside Rights of Way Act passed by Parliament in 2000, ensuring the freedom of the countryside for future generations.Roly Smith, a friend of Mr Rothman and an author of walking guidebooks, said: "It is down to them that we have got what we have today."Councillor Jonathan Coupe, of Trafford Council, said: "The honour of having a blue plaque attributed to you means you have really made an impression on society.""Mr Rothman contributed to the changing of history and it is because of him that we are able to enjoy the local countryside as often and freely as we can today."词汇表请参看答案与词汇部分Take Away English 随身英语 © British Broadcasting Corporation 2012Page 2 of 4/learningenglishQuiz 测验阅读短文并回答问题。
