大本钟的介绍ppt课件
英国伦敦泰晤士河畔，4名专业清洁工2014年8月 18日从威斯敏斯特宫钟楼顶部沿着绳子慢慢下滑， 开始给大本钟“洗澡”。大本钟上次“洗澡”是 在2010年。
内容.
按照计划，整个“洗澡”工程需要5天。 这几名专业人士一天清洗大本钟的一个面，4面就 是4天，再加一天以防天气变化，毕竟在95.7米高 处作业有一定危险。 “洗澡”时，大本钟钟面上的指针不再运转，但 仍然计时，每15分钟响一次。因此，清洁人员必 须戴着耳塞，以免听力受损。 除清洗外，技术人员还会对大本钟进行摄影测量， 检查钟面的损坏程度。大本钟每个钟面都由312块

计算方法
大本钟可用来说明光速和音速的分别。 如果一个人到了伦敦并站在钟楼下， 他会听到大本钟的钟声比那钟被敲响 时的时间慢约是六分之一秒（假定钟 在高55米之处）。可是如果把一个扩 音器放在钟附近并用无线电把钟声传 至很远的地方（像纽约市或香港般）， 那地方会比那站在钟楼下的人更早听 到钟声。事实上，如果接收者把那钟 声发回给在地面的那观察者，无线电 传送那钟声会比那观察者听到真正钟 声时更快。（例如：纽约市距伦敦 5,562公里，而无线电会在0.018552秒 内把钟声传至纽约市；来回共需 0.037105秒，但原来的钟声却需 0.1616秒才能达到地面）

文化标志 独立电视新闻的“十时新闻报告”以一连串的大本钟钟声 作新闻预告的配乐作开始已很多年。大本钟的钟声今天仍 会用于所有独立电视新闻频道新闻快报的新闻预告，及威 斯敏斯特宫大本钟的钟面图（因独立电视新闻公司认为以 大本钟为主题过于“大伦敦主义”，因此于2009年11月2日 起，十时新闻报告取消由伦敦天际线飞往大本钟的新闻开 场电脑动画，亦减少大本钟的图案出现，但仍保留大本钟 的钟声音效）。从1923年12月31日开始，大本钟的钟响亦 可在于英国广播公司第四台的一些新闻布告（6时正、半晚 及星期天的晚上10时正）的一小时前及英国广播公司国际 广播部听到。钟声是经由长期设置在钟楼内而连接着广播 大楼的扩音器传送的。

大本钟_ppt
大钟于1858年4月10日建成，是英国最大的钟。塔起码有320英尺高（约合 97.5米），分针有14英尺长（约合4.27米），大笨钟用人工发条，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。
大本钟作为伦敦市的标志以及英国的象征，凡到伦敦观光的人，无不想到钟楼周围， 站在议会桥上欣赏伦敦这个独具一格的建筑。大本钟巨大而华丽，四个钟面的面积有两平 方米左右。大本钟从1859年就为伦敦城报时，至今将近一个半世纪，尽管这期间大本钟 曾两度裂开而重筹。现在大本钟的钟声仍然清晰、动听。
大笨钟有四个钟面，每个钟面直径达6．8米，面积有两平方米左右各由312块乳白 色玻璃镶嵌而成。 透过玻璃，2.75米长的时针和4.27米长的分针的轮廓隐约可见，这些 铜制的空心指针每件重达200磅。 大笨钟憨憨笨笨的造型，既古典又稳重，给人一种诚 实可信的踏实感。
大笨钟的心脏是钟室。钟室很小，粉刷得如同诊疗室一般洁净。 钟室内是一座十六 英尺高的复杂装置，包括齿轮、杠杆和滑轮。它几乎从未停止过运转。 唯一的一次机械 故障发生在1944年：该钟的钟摆弹簧需调换，因三年前下议院被炸时钟楼严重受震。
在英国，大本钟是人们庆祝新年的重点地方，收音机和电视都会播出它的钟声来迎 接新一年的开始。同样地，在阵亡将士纪念日，大本钟钟声的传出表示第11个月的第11 天的第11个小时及2分钟的默哀开始。
独立电视新闻的“十时新闻报告”以一连串的大本钟钟声作新闻预告的配乐作开始已 很多年。大本钟的钟声今天仍会用于所有独立电视新闻，新闻快报的新闻预告，及威斯敏 斯特宫大本钟的钟面图。从1923年12月31日开始，大本钟的钟响亦可在于英国广播公司 第四台的一些新闻布告（6时正、半晚及星期天的晚上10时正）的一小时前及英国广播公 司国际广播部听到。钟声是经由长期设置在钟楼内而连接着广播大楼的扩音器传送的。

BIG BENThe Big Ben is located in the tower at the eastern end of the Houses of Parliament, Westminster, Greater London. It was designed by Edmund Beckett and Baron Grim Thorpe.The Big Ben is very famous throughout the world, but nobody really knows why it is called Big Ben. There are two hearsays about this. Some people say that it was named after Benjamin Caunt, a boxer, who was called Big Ben. More people believe it was called after Welshman, Sir Benjamin Hall. He was the commissioner o f the work at the time of its installation in 1859. A story was told that during a debate in the Commons on what to call the bell, Sir Benjamin was about to give his ideas when a M P who sat behind the front bench shouted, let’s call it Big Ben! Then this name came in to being.The bell hasn't gone through a smooth road since the beginning of its design. Because there was great disagreement ab out the design of the clock, it took fifteen years to build. In 1857, the bell was completed and tested on the ground, but a four-foot crack appeared and the bell had to be cast again. Finally, the clock started ticking on 31 May, 1859, and struck its first chime on 11, July. Then in September, the bell cracked again. It was silent for four years but was eventually tu rned a quarter of a revolution. In this way, the crack was not under the striking hammer. Crafts men made a square above the crack to stop it graving longer and it can still be seen today.The Big Ben is famous not only for its 13-ton weight, but also for its accuracy which is a result of its precise mechanism. Even one extra penny's weight on the balance will cause a gain of two fifths of a second in twenty four hours. Although there have been several problem, the bell is still stri king today. Its chimes can be heard all over the world on the B.B.C.。
