ng 大不列颠及北爱尔兰王国（英国全称）
puzzles in geography
people may wonder why different words are used to describe these four countries: england, wales, scotland and northern ireland. you can clarify this question if you study british history.
first there was england. wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century. now when people refer to england you find wales included as well. next england and wales were joined to scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to great britain. happily this was accomplished without conflict when king james of scotland became king of england and wales as well. finally the english government tried in the early twentieth century to form the united kingdom by getting ireland connected in the same peaceful way. however, the southern part of ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government. so only northern ireland joined with england, wales and scotland to become the united kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the union jack.
to their credit the four countries do work together in some areas (eg, the currency and international relations), but they still have very different institutions. for example, northern ireland, england and scotland have different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the world cup!
england is the largest of the four countries, and for convenience it is divided roughly into three zones. the zone nearest france is called the south of england, the middle zone is called the midlands and the one nearest to scotland is known as the north. you find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the industrial cities in the midlands and the north of england. although, nationwide, these cities are not as large as those in china, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! it is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract
visitors. for historical architecture you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the romans. there you will find out more about british history and culture.
the greatest historical treasure of all is london with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. it is
the centre of national government and its administration. it has the oldest port built by the romans in the first century ad, the oldest building begun by the anglo-saxons in the 1060s and
the oldest castle constructed by later norman rulers in 1066. there has been four sets of invaders of england. the first invaders, the romans, left their towns and roads. the second,
the anglo-saxons, left their language and their government. the third, the vikings, influenced the vocabulary and place-names
of the north of england, and the fourth, the normans, left
castles and introduced new words for food.
if you look around the british countryside you will find evidence of all these invaders. you must keep your eyes open
if you are going to make your trip to the united kingdom enjoyable and worthwhile.
人们也许觉得奇怪，为什么用来描述英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北
爱尔兰这四个国家的词语不太一样。

但如果你学过英国历史，就能
弄清楚这个问题。

首先是英格兰。

威尔士于13世纪同英格兰联合了起来。

如今只要有
人提起英格兰，你就会发现威尔士总是包括在内的。

接着，英格兰、威尔士同苏格兰于17世纪联合了起来，名字就改成了“大不列颠”。

令人庆幸的是，当苏格兰的詹姆斯国王成为英格兰和威尔士的国王时，这三个国家和平地实现了联合。

最后，英国政府打算于20世纪
初把爱尔兰也同另外三个国家和平联合起来以形成联合王国。

然而，爱尔兰的南部却不愿组建联合王国，它分离出去，并建立了自己的
政府。

因此只有北爱尔兰同英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰联合起来，而
组成了联合王国，这一点从新的联合王国国旗上就可以看得出来。

值得赞扬的是，这四个国家的确在一些方面共同合作，例如在货币
和国际关系方面；但是有些制度仍然区别很大。

例如，北爱尔兰、
英格兰和苏格兰在教育体制和立法体制上都存在着差异。

在参加像
世界杯之类的比赛时，它们有着各自的足球队。

在这四个国家中，英格兰是最大的。

为了方便起见，它大致可以划
分为三个地区。

最靠近法国的那个地区叫做英格兰南部，中部地区
叫做英格兰中部，最靠近苏格兰的那个地区叫做英格兰北部。

你可
以看到英国的大部分人口聚居在南部，而多数大工业城市都位于中
部和北部。

尽管，英国任何一个城市都不像中国的城市那样大，但
是他们都有着自己的享有威名的足球队，有的城市甚至还有两个队。

很遗憾，这些建于19世纪的工业城市对游客并没有吸引力。

要找历
史性建筑你得去更古老的、比较小些的由古罗马人建造的城镇。

在
那儿你才可能找到更多的有关英国历史和文化的东西。

最具历史意义的宝地是伦敦。

那儿有博物馆，有艺术珍品、剧院、
公园和各种建筑物。

它是全国的政治中心。

它有公元一世纪由罗马
人建造的最古老的港口，有由盎格鲁——撒克逊人始建于11世纪60年代的最古老的建筑，还有公元1066年由后来的诺曼人统治者建造
的最古老的城堡。

曾经有四批侵略者到过英国。

第一批入侵者是古
罗马人，留下了他们的城镇和道路。

接着是盎格鲁——撒克逊人，
留下了他们的语言和政体。

第三是斯堪的纳维亚人，他们对词汇和
北部的地名造成了一定影响；第四是诺曼人，他们留下了城堡和食
物名称的新词语。

如果你到英国乡间去看看，你就会找到所有这些
入侵者的痕迹。

如果想使你的英国之旅不虚此行又有意义，你就必
须留心观察。

sightseeing in london
worried about the time available, zhang pingyu had made a
list of the sites she wanted to see in london. her first delight
was going to the tower. it was built long ago by the norman invaders of ad 1066. fancy! this solid stone, square tower had remained standing for one thousand years.although the buildings had expanded around it, it remained part of a royal palace and prison combined. to her great surprise, zhang pingyu found the queens jewels guarded by special roya
l soldiers who, on special occasions, still wore the four-
hundred-year-old uniform of the time of queen elizabeth i.
there followed st pauls cathedral built after the terrible fire of london in 1666. it looked splendid when first built! westminster abbey, too, was very interesting. it contained statues in
memory of dead poets and writers, such as shakespeare. then just as she came out of the abbey, pingyu heard the famous sound of the clock, big ben, ringing out the hour. she finished the day by looking at the outside of buckingham palace, the queens house in london. oh, she had so much to tell her
friends!
the second day the girl visited greenwich and saw its old ships and famous clock that sets the world time. what interested her most was the longitude line. it is an imaginary line dividing the eastern and western halves of the world and is very useful for navigation. it passes through greenwich, so pingyu had a
photo taken standing on either side of the line.
the last day she visited karl marxs statue in highgate cemetery. it seemed strange that the man who had developed
communism should have lived and died in london. not only that, but he had worked in the famous reading room of the library of the british museum. sadly the library had moved from its original place into another building and the old reading
room was gone. but she was thrilled by so many wonderful treasures from different cultures displayed in the museum. when she saw many visitors enjoying looking at the beautiful
old chinese pots and other objects on show, she felt very
proud of her country.
the next day pingyu was leaving london for windsor castle. perhaps i will see the queen? she wondered as she fell asleep.
伦敦观光记
由于担心时间不够，张萍玉早就把她想要在伦敦参观的地点列了一
张单子。

她最先想参观的地方是伦敦塔，它是很久以前由入侵的诺
曼人在公元1066年修建的。

真是太棒了！这个坚实的用石头砌的方
形塔已经在那屹立一千年了。

尽管在塔的四周扩建了一些建筑，但
它仍然是皇宫和监狱联合体的一个组成部分。

让张萍玉很惊讶的是，她发现女王的珠宝由皇家特别卫士守护着，而这些卫士在一些特殊
的日子仍然穿着400年前伊丽莎白一世女王时代的制服。

接着参观的是圣保罗大教堂，它是公元1666年伦敦大火以后建造的，刚建成的时候，它看起来真是金碧辉煌。

威斯敏斯特大教堂也
是很有意思的地方，里面珍藏着一些已故诗人和作家的雕像，例如
莎士比亚的雕像。

正当萍玉走出大教堂的时候，她听到了著名的大
本钟整点敲响的钟声。

她参观了女王伦敦住所白金汉宫的外景，以
此结束了一天的观光。

啊，她要同朋友们讲的实在太多了！
第二天，萍玉姑娘参观了格林尼治天文台，看到了古老的轮船和那
座著名的为时间定时的时钟。

她最感兴趣的是那条通过天文台的经线。

这是一条假想的线，它把世界分成东西两半球，从而有利于航海。

这条线穿过格林尼治，萍玉就跨着这条线拍了一张照片。

再过一天，萍玉就要离开伦敦去温莎城堡了。

她边睡觉边想：“也许我能见到女王呢？”

tower of terror
our travel company, the tower of terror, offers you a unique and bewitching opportunity to tour london’s daunting tower of london. on our personally guided tours, we’ll tell you stories, show you details and take you down secret passages that other tourists would never even know about.
for the low price of only 100 british pounds, we will customize a tour to suit your interests and those of your family or tour group. the following tour is an example of how we can build a tour that suits the ghost and ghoul lover in you — and your spouse.
as we approach the stone tower, take a deep breath. feel the gravel crunch under your feet. feel your heartbeat. feel glad to be alive. for not everyone who enters this daunting fortress has the opportunity to leave. many british people, famous and not, have entered this tower and never left — at least not alive.
a long time ago, in the early 1080s, william the conqueror ordered the tower to be built. it started as a relatively small structure, but over the centuries, other rulers added more towers, palaces, prisons and torture rooms.
let’s visit two of these special places, where two famous londoners were put to death.
first, we will visit the tower green, where queen anne boleyn was executed. anne was the second wife of king hey viii. unlike most good queens, who would keep to themselves and not interfere with the king’s duties, anne was a very smart woman. she was charming and was comfortable with expressing her ideas on politics and religion. but hey viii did not like this. he was also troubled that she didn’t give birth to a baby son, who could become king after he died.
as much as hey viii wanted to marry another woman, he couldn’t, according to british law. so he decided to accuse his wife anne of adultery. she was finally arrested and tried(审判). she was beheaded in the tower of london in 1536.
some people say that anne’s ghost still wanders around the chapel of st peter ad vincula, where she was buried.
another famous troublemaker to be executed at the tower of london was guy fawkes. guy fawkes was in the military, and he was a catholic with very strong religious opinions and loyalties. another one of guy’s passions was explosives, or fireworks. in england, a group of unhappy catholics asked guy to help them plan an explosion that would shake up the country’s leaders. the group wanted to kill king james, who did not agree with their religious ideology(信仰).
before the explosives could be lit, however, guy fawkes was captured by king james’ men. fawkes was imprisoned in the tower of london and tortured with very painful devices. finally, together with the other men who were planning to kill king james, guy fawkes was put to death by hanging.
d. his weakness.。
