They may have white, brown or black skin and blonde, brown, black or red hair, with blue, black, brown or green eyes.Many of the people you will see will be British people but they all look different because the people of Britain are a mixed race.Britain is and has always been a mixed race society. Early in the British history they were invaded by Romans, Saxons, Vikings and Normans armies and later Africans were brought to Britain by force in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries as slaves or servants. Over the years, thousands of people have been forced by persecution（迫害）or hunger to leave France, Ireland, Russia, and other countries, and have settled in Britain.About 8% of the population of Britain today are people from other cultures and races. That is 4.6 million people. According to a BBC report in September 2005, immigration（移民）made up more than half of Britain’s population growth from 1991 to 2001. The Guardian newspaper reported in 2007 that the number of immigrants to the UK was 145, 000 a year.People moving to Britain have brought their own cultures with them and try to keep them alive. An excellent example of this is the Notting Hill Carnival which celebrates the Caribbean culture and is now a very big part of British life today.1. From Tony Blair’s words, we learn that he was__________ for the diversity in Britain.A. sorryB. thankfulC. pityD. anxious2. Why can you find people of different races inBritain?A. Because people like to live in big cities in Britain.B. Because people from different countries havesettled in Britain.C. Because Britain has attracted many tourists fromall over the world.D. Because people from different countries havebeen invited to live there.3. What does the fourth paragraph mainly talk about?A. How Britain became a mixed race society.B. Where people get the strength to come toBritain.C. Where to find people with different hair, skinand eye colors.D. How people from different cultures livepeacefully in Britain.4. Which of the following statements is TRUEaccording to the passage?A. The rate of immigration to Britain increased bymore than 50% from 1991 to 2001.B. In the 17th century, about 8% of the Britishimmigrants were Africans.C. There are 4.6 million immigrants in Britain today.D. 145, 000 people moved out of the UK in 2007.5. It can be inferred that __________.A. England is the best place to live inB. people from Africa came to Britain for politicalreasonsC. Britain’s population grew sharply one hundredyears agoD. people from other countries have had someeffect on British culture答案与解析Ⅰ.1. unite 2. clarify3. credits4. convenience5. conflict6. unwilling7. roughly 8. nationwideⅡ.1. consists of 2. consists in3. refer to4. break away from5. leave out6. divide; into7. separate; from 8. for convenienceⅢ.1.

白金汉宫白金汉宫(Buckingham Palace)是英国君主的官邸。

它的建筑风格为新古典主义, 主体建筑为五层, 其中两层为服务人员使用的附属层, 高度较低。

所以立面可以视为纵、横三段式处理。

白金汉宫的附属建筑包括皇家画廊、皇家马厩和花园。

皇家画廊和皇家马厩均对公众开放参观, 每年夏天,英国王室在花园内举办盛大的皇家招待会。

除此之外, 来英国做国事访问的国家元首也在宫内下榻。

白金汉宫的广场中央耸立着维多利亚女王纪念碑,顶上站立着展翅欲飞的金箔包裹的胜利女神,而纪念碑正面那么端坐着握着权杖的维多利亚女王。

在这个纪念碑的下方有阶梯, 许多游人在此落座，因为它是打量白金汉宫的最正确位置。

附近地铁站: Victoria 站, Hyde Park Corner 站或Green Park 站,步行穿过公园既是。

公共汽车路线有: 9, 10, 14, 38, 73 等。

唐宁街十号(10 Downing Street)是英国首相官邸,(1735年即成为首相府) 既是世界最知名的政府首脑所在地之一,也已成为伦敦一个重要的旅游景点。

议会大厦(The UK Parliament)英国议会所在地。

曾为英王室居住的西敏寺宫, 1515年被大火焚毁。

1547年修复后,爱德华六世把该宫的部分建筑拨给下院使用。

1838年该宫又毁于大火, 只剩下西敏寺大厅。

1840年重建西敏寺宫,即现在的议会。

1852年,维多利亚女王主持揭幕典礼。

该建筑包括护宫河,总面积为12。

5亩。

大本钟(Big Ben)是英国最著名的地标, 与英国国会大厦相连。

大本钟因其走时准确而名扬四海。

每隔一小时，大钟根据格林威治时间发出沉重而铿锵的响声, 在数英里之外也能听到钟声的回荡。

蜡像馆(Madame Tussauds)--杜瑟夫人蜡像馆, 号称世界同类展览馆中规模最大, 1835年由来自法国的杜瑟夫人创办, 最初在贝克大街, 1884年移至现址。

蜡像馆中展出的作品为现代历史名人。

Unit 2 The United Kingdom——readingI. Leading in and warming upA map of BritainThe United Kingdom = the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland(China = the People’s Republic of China)II. Warming up:Questions: What do you know about the UK? (I think you surely know sth. about this country, any volunteers? Just think When we talk about a country what items do we usually mention? ) Capital: London ( Do you know the capital of the countries of the UK? )Area: over (more than) 240,000 sq.km.

It is situated in Northwestern Europe, lying to the north of France and the west of the Netherlands and Denmark.Now let’s do a quiz and find out how much more you know about the UK.1. Who rules the country?A. The QueenB. The Prime MinisterC. Both( by the way who is the present Queen and Minister of the UN? //// Elizabeth & Blair )(it may appear to an outsider that the Queen has an important role in ruling the country. However, this is not so. Her position is ceremonial: opening Parliament, welcoming Heads form other countries, going on tours to other countries to encourage trade with Britain, etc. The Minister together with his most important ministers (called the Cabinet) and his Members of Parliament make the important political decisions and the laws. ))2. What are the provinces called in England?A. countiesB. provincesC. states(County = a large area that includes several towns and their surrounding countryside and forms aunit of local government（英国的）郡；They have local government powers for their area.The counties of Britain are much smaller than provinces in China.But in America county = is the largest unit below the level of a state （美国的）县（州一下最大的行政区）3. Which is the most important river in England? Which is the longest river in England?A. The River AvonB. The River ThamesC. The River SevernThames (338km) London lies on the River Thames.Severn 354 km The longest river4. How many countries does the UK consist of ?A. twoB. threeC. fourThe United Kingdom consists of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.You have done good jobs. And Now let’s learn more about this in the first reading passage. (p9) ReadingI. Fast reading1. Read the text quickly and find the main idea of each paragraph (Maybe there is a topic sentence in each paragraph)Para 1 Why people use different words to describe the four countries (history reason)states the topic to be examined in reading. (引起下文) leads in the textPara2 How is Wales linked to England. (How Wales and England united) (What England includes) explains the joining of England and Wales.Para 3 How Great Britain and the United Kingdom came into being. (Why only Northern Ireland joined to the United Kingdom.)explains what the term “Great Britain” means and how it came about.Para 4 The relationship among the four countries (similarities and differences )explains differences in the four countriesPara 5 Something about the largest and most important country ---- England.explains how England is divided into three zones.Para 6 Something about the greatest historical city ----Londonexplains the importance of London as a cultural and political centre in the UK.2. Lets try to divide the passage into three parts and write down the main idea of each part.Part 1(Para1-4): It explains why and how the four countries (….) united/developed as a big one. They have similarities and differences as well.Part 2 (5): It shows how England is divided into three zones. And the characteristic of each part. Part 3 (6): It explains why London became the treasure of all and how it is influenced by some invaders. (How great it is / why London is ca ll “the greatest historical treasure of all” / the cultural importance of London)3. Get through the passage within 2 minutes Find out the main idea of the whole text together with your partner.This passage introduces how four counties united as the UK. Differences exist in different parts of the United Kingdom. They each have their own international football or rugby team as well as their own educational and legal systems. But even so they are part of one big country---- the United Kingdom. And then the passage tells us something about one of the most important country ---- England and also the greatest historical city ----LondonPay attention to the title of the passage. Think it over why does the author use such a title? Is that suitable? If not, ca n you give us a better one? Let’s have a discussion in groups of four:A. The United KingdomB. A Brief Introduction of UKC. Puzzles in GeographyD. How Did the UK Come into BeingThere is no right or wrong answers to the question.(Different titles serve different purposes: Some can sum up the main idea of the test; others just arouse the interest of the readers; ….This title is just used to lead in the passage and draw the readers attention of interests.)----- Are you from England ?---- No, I come from Scotland.In my own opinion, this title isn’t a bad one. But maybe your answers are better than the title of the passageOk, so much for the discussion and the title, let’s come to the details of the passage.II. Careful reading1. Read the passage and judge the following statements true or false.1. Wales was linked to England in 15th century AD. (F/ 13th)2. When King James of England became King of Scotland and Wales as well, the three countries united peacefully. (F/ When King James o f Scotland became King of England…)3. The four countries work together in all areas. (F/ some areas; )4. Most of the population settled in the South, but most of the large industrial cities in the Midlands and North of England (T)5. If you want to find out more about British history and culture, you have to go to the big cities.(F / go to the older and smaller towns first built by the Romans. )6. London is a great cultural and historical city. (T)III. Further understanding of the text1. Read the passage again and let’s do some further understanding of the passage.1. The Union Jack flag unites the three flags of the three countries in the United Kingdom. Which country is left out? And why? (p2)(Wales. Because Wales is usually considered to be part of England. )2. When two teams, for example one is the Chinese football team and the other Scottish football team, compete in the World Cup, which team do you think the funs from England will support? (Strange enough, they will support our Chinese team!)3. Which group of invaders did not leave any evidence in London?The Vinkings. (They influenced the vocabulary and place names of the North. But the other three invaders left sth. in London. )4. What is the relationship between the Republic of Ireland and the UK?Two independent countries.5. Can you work out why London is the capital of England, Great Britain and the UK?Because of its importance in transportation, cultural, economic, politic and history.6. Look at the language, the writing style of this passage. Is it formal or informal? Is it a personal opinion or presented factually? Are there any point of view or personal opinions?Formal. In fact this reading is written to explain facts. It is composed in the third person and in a plain, prose style. So it expresses no point of view or personal opinions.说明文expository writing2.
