Mr. Buchanan was 64 years old when he began tutoring the young king.KING JAMES BEGINS TO REIGN IN SCOTLAND.King James began to rule his native Scotland when he was 19 years old.A few years later, he took Anne of Denmark to be his queen.King James loved his wife and wrote beautiful poetry for her.Together they had nine children.Once, when the King and Queen were out hunting, Queen Anne accidentally killed the King’s favorite hu nting dog, Jewell.The Queen felt badly about thisKing James believed in the Divine Right of Kings and the monarch’s duty to reign according to God’s law and the public good.In order to pas s on his kingly instruction to his eldest son, Prince Henry, King James wrote Basilicon Doron which means, “the Kingly Gift”.Basilicon Doron was not meant for general publication, but for the instruction of the young prince in the likely event that his father would not survive to instruct him—King James was sickly and survived a number of assassination attempts.The King bound his printer Robert Waldegrave to secrecy and ordered an edition of only seven copies.Somehow, however, intelligence of the book and its contents got abroad.Subsequently, there was so much demand for Basilicon Doron that forged（稳步前进）,the general public and it became a bestseller.It was published in English, Welsh, Latin, French,Basilicon Doron is a short treatise（论文）, only 153 pages long.It consists of three short volumes, the first of which is “A King’s Christian Duetie towards God.”James D’israeli said,In Basilicon Doron, King James’ understanding of Christian discipleship, style and prose areat their best.He skillfully intertwines sacred scripture with godly and Christian advice.The KingDiligently read his word, & earnestly...pray for the right understanding thereof.Search the scriptures saith Christ for they will bear testimony of me.The whole Scriptures saith Paul are profitable to teach, to improve, to correct, and to instruct in righteousness, that the man of God“The whole Scripture contayneth but two things: a command and a prohibition.Obey in both...ThKing James’ great aspiration to be the first King of both Scotland and England was realized in 1603 upon the death of Queen Elizabeth.When he ascended to the English throne that year he had already been king of Scotland for 36 years.He was now known as King James VI of Scotland & I of England. The king played a masterly political game and kept his kingdom out of war.For the first time a Scottish monarch wielded effective authority over the more far-flung areas of the realm（领域）.He supported literature both through his own writing and his patronage（赞助）.There was peace during his reign—both with his subjects and foreign powers.As a Scotsman ruling over the English, the King endured much racism and slander—especially from the once powerful English Lords and Ladies who he replaced with his Scottish countrymen.Unfortunately, many of tod ay’s historians look to the writings of hostile sources such as Sir Anthony Weldon and Francis Osborne as accurate descriptions of this great king.One of the king’s detractors（诽谤者）, Sir Anthony Weldon, was knighted by King James but was subsequently dismi ssed after King James found racist writings by Weldon about the King’s native Scotland.Many historians today quote Weldon as if he were a reliable historical source. Examples of Weldon’s racism are found in his treatise entitled, “A Perfect Description of the People and Country of Scotland” where he says that the Scots are a “stinking people” who hold “fornication...but a pastime”.He also said,“...their flesh naturally abhors cleanness.Their breath commonly stinks of pottage...to be chained in marriage with one of them, were to be tied to a dead carcass, and cast into a stinking ditch...I do wonder that...King James should be born in so stinking a town as Edinburgh in lousy Scotland.”Despite this obvious bias, historians continue to consult the writings owho intimated that King James had inordinate affections towards other men—but he did not do this until 25 years after King James was dead and could not defend himself.Today’s sodomite/ homosexual community is touting the King as one of their own, which he was not.These misinformed sources, virtually without exception, fail to mention that King James and his Queen had nine children together.You can read about the rumors in this article or check out an excellently researched book on the subject by Stephen Coston, Sr.entitled, King James: Unjustly Accused?“They quarrel me (not for any evil or vice in me) but because I was a king, which they thought the highest evil, and because they were ashamed to profess this quarrel they were busy tolook narrowly in all my actions, and I warrant you a moat in my eye, yes a false report was matter—James I, Basilicon Doron The religion was also an enemy of king James.Papists (as King James called them) attempted to assassinate him a number of times.Most notably, in 1605 Roman Catholic Guy Fawkes attempted to blow up Parliament when the king was to have been present.The conspiracy was discovered and all co-conspirators were executed.This failed attempt is celebrated on November 5of Rome.King James strongly delineated the errors of Roman superstition and spurned them yet he“He is a Protestant...the King tries to extend his Protestant religion to the whole island. The King is a bitter enemy of our religion.He frequently speaks of it in terms of contempt.He is all the harsher because of this last conspiracy against his life...He understood that the Jesuits had a hand in it.”Despite his detractors, King James the Ⅵof Scotland and Ⅰof England was a highlyAs a lover of the theatre, King James became patron to the troop of one of his most famous subjects—William Shakespeare the playwright.Shakespeare’s troop came to be known as the King’s Men.Shakespeare and the King held a special relationship as they both loved literature. Shakespeare even wrote his famous play, “Macbeth”specifically for King James.Another little recognized fact is that King James the Ⅵ and Ⅰ is the founding monarch of the United States.Under his reign, we have the first successful colonies planted on the American mainland—Virginia, Massachusetts, and Nova Scotia (Latin for New Scotland) in SE Canada.The King himself ordered, wrote and authorized the Evangelistic Grant Charter to settle the Colony ofAmerica, commonly called Virginia...in propagating of Christian religion to such people as yet live in darkness...to bring a settled and quie。

Teaching proceduresStep I Revision and LeadinTalk about London with the students.T: London has been a capital city for nearly 1,000 years, and many of its ancient buildings still stand. Have you found any information about London?S1: The most famous sites in London are t he Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and St. Paul’s Cathedral. But most visitors also want to see the House of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, which is the Queen’s London home. S2: Once, London was a small Roman town on the north bank of the Thames, but slowly it grew into one of the world’s major cities with more than 7 million people. Different areas of London seem to be like different cities. And it also has many big parks, full of trees, flowers and grass. Sitting on the grass in the middle of Hyde Park orKensington Gardens, you are in the country, miles away.S3: Many people think that London is all gray, but in fact red is London’s favorite color. London is at its best when people are celebrating. Then the flags, the cheering crowds and the carriages and horses all sparkle in the sunshine — if it’s not raining, of course However, it is often foggy. That’s why it’s called “fog city”.Ask the students to read the passage and do the exercises after the passage.T: “Sightseeing in London” is about a Chinese girl’s first visit to London. It tells us how it would feel to visit London for the first time. Now read and find the answers to the questions after the text.1. First, shemade a list of the sites she wanted to see. Then she planed her fourday trip.2. The buildings mentioned in the text were:Tower, built by Norman invaders of AD 1066, it is a solid, stone, square tower which remained standing for one thousand years St Paul’s Cathedral, built after the terrible fire of London in 1666, looked splendid Westminster Abbey, contains statues in memory of dead poets and writers Greenwich, the longitude line Big Ben Highgate Cemetery Windsor Castle.T ask 2: Ask the students to study the structure of the text “Sightseeing in London”.Show the following.Task 3: Deal with re The first day The second day The third day 1. The Tower of London 2. St Paul’s C athedral 3. Westminster Abbey 4. Big Ben 5. Buckingham Palace 1. High gateCemetery 2. The Libraryof the BritishMuseum GreenwichA particular British celebrationAsk the students to read the passage quickly for the first time to find out the main idea of the text. Then ask them to read the text again carefully to obtain some details and do the exercises after the text.T: Guy Fawkes Night is celebrated in Britain annually on November 5th. The event is acpanied by firework displays, the lighting of bonfires and the ceremonial effigyburning of one Guy Fawkes. The origin of this celebration es from the event which took place in 1605 and was a conspiracy known as “The Gunpowder Plot”, intended to take place on November 5th of that year (the day set for the opening of Parliament). Now read the text and then find the answers to the exercises.Sample answers to Exercise 1:Oct. 10: one of Fawkes’ Catholic friends, named Catesby, asked him if he would support a plan to change the government and replace it with another.Oct. 27: Fawkes and Catesby arranged to buy a house close to the Houses of Parliament.Oct. 2831: Catesby and Fawkes bought large containers of gunpowder and stored them in the cellar.Nov. 6: the king and all his advisers would be in the parliament for the meeting.Sample answers to Exercise 2:S1: I would not like to be King James, because he kept changing his mind. He would say, “I could not be tolerant of their religion.” And he took actions to stop people believing in Catholic.S2: I would like to be Robert Catesby. He would say like this: The king is never so tolerant of the Catholics. So I decided that a violent action is the only answer. The thing to do was to blow up the Houses of Parliament. In doing so, we would kill the King, maybe even the Prince of Wales, and the Members of Parliament who were making life difficult for the Catholics. And to carry ou t the plan, Catesby and his men got hold of 36 barrels of gunpowder — and stored them in a cellar, just under the House of Lords.S3: I would be an eyewitness: As the group worked on the plot, it became clear that innocent people would be hurt or killed in the attack, including some people who even fought for more rights for Catholics. Some of the plotters started having second thoughts. One of the group members even sent an anonymous letter warning his friend, Lord Monteagle, to stay away from the Parliament on November 5th.S4: I would not like to be Guy Fawkes. Because he would say, “some of us have betrayed, so we shou ld start the plan in advance.” So he tried to start the fire. But the soldiers found him before he could do anything and he was taken to the Tower of London to be killed.S5: If King James had kept his promise, nothing would have happened.VI HomeworkAsk the students to:1. Get ready to retell the text in your own words.2. Go over “Learning about Language” 1, 2 and 3 on pages 12.3. Do “Discovering useful structures” 1 and 2 on pages 13.。

John Snow believed Idea 2 was right. How did he finally prove it? First there wasEngland. In the 13th century AD, Wales was linked to England. In 1603 England and Wales were joined to Scotland. The name Great Britain came into being. Three centuries later Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom.(John Snow finally proved his idea because he found an outbreak that was clearly related to cholera, collected information and was able to tie cases outside the area to the polluted water.)2. Do you think John Snow would have solved this problem without the map?(No. The map helped John Snow organize his ideas. He was able to identify those households that had had many deaths and check their water-drinking habits. He identified those houses that had had no deaths and surveyed their drinking habits. The evidence clearly pointed to the polluted water being the cause.)3. Cholera is a 19th century disease. What disease do you think is similar to cholera today?(Two diseases, which are similar today, are SARS and AIDS because they are both serious, have an unknown cause and need public health care to solve them.)Step 4 SummaryHave the students use the information to write a short summary of the passagePossible version: The writer examines how the UK developed as an administrative unit.
