英国节日——圣·帕特里克节
圣帕特里克节（St. Patrick‘s Day）是每年 的3月17日，是为了纪念爱尔兰守护神圣帕 特里克。这一节日5世纪末期起源于爱尔兰。 人们大多按照传统习俗穿着黄色和绿色的 衣服，脸上也用绿色油彩描画出三叶苜蓿 的图样。传说中，圣帕特里克当年在爱尔 兰传教时，就是利用三叶苜蓿向人们讲述 基督教义的。燃放焰火也是庆祝圣帕特里 克节不可缺少的一个组成部分。当夜幕降 临，美丽的焰火在天穹划出一道道绚烂迷 人色彩，人们欢呼雀跃，相互送去温馨的 祝福。虽说圣帕特里克节是爱尔兰的传统 节日，但数百年来，随着爱尔兰后裔遍布 欧美各国，这一节日也渐渐成为西方国家 共同的节日。
伊丽莎白塔（英语：Elizabeth Tower，旧 称大本钟，BIG BEN），即威斯敏斯特宫 钟塔，世界上著名的哥特式建筑之一，英国 国会会议厅附属的钟楼（Clock Tower） 的大报时钟的昵称。是坐落在英国伦敦泰晤 士河畔的一座钟楼，是伦敦的标志性建筑之 一。钟楼高95米，钟直径9英尺，重13.5吨。 每15分钟响一次，敲响威斯敏斯特钟声。 自从兴建地铁Jubilee线之后，大本钟受到 影响，测量显示大本钟朝西北方向倾斜约半 米。 伊丽莎白塔于1858年4月10日建成，是 英国最大的钟。塔有320英尺高（约合97.5 米），分针有14英尺长 （约合4.27米）， 大本钟用人工发条，国会开会期间，钟面会 发出光芒，每隔一小时报时一次。每年的夏 季与冬天时间转换时会把钟停止，进行零件 的修补、交 换，钟的调音等。

➢The Constitution of the United Kingdom thus consists mostly
of a collection of disparate written sources, including statutes, judge-made case law, and international treaties. As there is no technical difference between ordinary statutes and "constitutional law," the UK Parliament can perform "constitutional reform" simply by passing Acts of Parliament and thus has the political power to change or abolish almost any written or unwritten element of the constitution. However, no Parliament can pass laws that future Parliaments cannot change.

• London is the capital city of England and the United Kingdom. With an estimated 8,308,369 residents in 2012, London is the most populous region, urban zone and metropolitan area in the United Kingdom and is the largest city in the European Union.
Religion
• Forms of Christianity have dominated religious life in what is now the United Kingdom for over 1,400 years. Although a majority of citizens still identify with Christianity in many surveys, regular church attendance has fallen dramatically since the middle of the 20th century, while immigration and demographic change have contributed to the growth of other faiths, most notably Islam. This has led some commentators to variously describe the UK as a multifaith, secularized , or post-Christian society. The Church of England is the established church in England. It retains a representation in the UK Parliament and the British monarch is its Supreme Governor. In Scotland the Presbyterian Church of Scotland is recognised as the national church. It is not subject to state control, and the British monarch is an ordinary member, required to swear an oath to "maintain and preserve the Protestant Religion and Presbyterian Church Government" upon his or her accession. The (Anglican) Church in Wales was disestablished in 1920 and, as the (Anglican) Church of Ireland was disestablished in 1870 before the partition of Ireland, there is no established church in Northern Ireland. Although there are no UK-wide data in the 2001 census on adherence to individual Christian denominations, it has been estimated that 62% of Christians are Anglican, 13.5% Catholic, 6% Presbyterian, 3.4% Methodist with small numbers of other Protestant denominations such as Open Brethren, and Orthodox churches.

that describes the combination of England, Scotland, and Wales, the three nations which together include all the land on the island. (3) “England” is sometimes wrongly used in reference to the whole United Kingdom, the entire island of Great Britain (or simply Britain), or the British Isles. This is not only incorrect but can cause offence to people from other parts of the UK. The diverse history of England, Scotland and Wales has led to very different cultural traditions. The Scots and the Welsh have right to feel aggrieved whenever the term “English” is wrongly used to mean all three. When it is always correct to call people from England, Scotland, or Wales “British”, people from England
