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 ecational 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 instrial 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 instrial 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 introced 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.

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 Queen's jewels guarded by special royal soldiers who, on special occasions, still wore the four-hundred-year-old uniform of the time of Queen Elizabeth I.
There followed St Paul's 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 Queen's 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 Marx's 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.

尼古拉斯哥白尼 那個是 2單元的reading&writing嗎？
我點下一頁也不好使啊 怎麼都打不開下一頁， 應該是我家網的問題

哥白尼的革命學說
尼古拉斯哥白尼怕了並且他腦子困惑了。即使他已經試圖去忽略掉他們，他的數學計算卻帶給他同樣的結果：地球不是太陽系的中心，只有你把太陽放到那個位置（中心）時，其他行星在天空中的運行才會符合道理。但是你不能就這個理論告訴任何人，因為強大的教會甚至會因為他僅僅提出這樣一個想法而懲罰他。正因為他們相信神創造了這個世界，所以地球是特殊的並且地球必須是太陽系的中心。
問題的起因是因為天文學家發現
。。。。汗 手欠 按了一下 下一頁 結果呢
打不開 想回去 結果呢 也打不開了
我勒個去！剛要放棄 結果後面那頁打開了！！ 先翻譯後面的吧，前面最後幾句有空打開了再補上
這種情況是非常罕見的如果地球是太陽系的中心而且所有的行星都圍繞著它。
哥白尼努力想了這些問題很長時間並且試著去找出一個答案。他收集了一些對星星的觀察記錄並且運用他的數學支持區解釋他們。但是只有他的新理論才是對的。所以從1510年到1514年之間哥白尼一直致力於這方面的工作，逐漸的證明他的理論直到他感覺理論完整。
在1514年，他私下裡把他的成果演示給他的朋友們。他對舊理論的改變時革命性的。他修正了太陽是太陽系的中心，其他行星圍繞太陽轉，只有月亮仍然圍繞著地球轉。並且哥白尼提出地球在圍繞太陽轉的同時也在自轉，這也解釋了其他行星運行的改變以及星星的亮度。他的朋友當時非常激動而且鼓勵哥白尼去公開他的想法，但是哥白尼卻很近身。他不想被教會攻擊，所以在哥白尼在1543年死的時候才將其公開。
不可否認，他的小心是對的。教會否定了他的理論，說這是違背神的意志，誰支持它誰就要遭到教會的打擊。但是現在，哥白尼的理論

Reading 大不列顛及北愛爾蘭王國（英國全稱）

人們也許覺得奇怪，為什麼用來描述英格蘭、威爾士、蘇格蘭和北愛爾蘭這四個國家的詞語不太一樣。但如果你學過英國歷史，就能弄清楚這個問題。
首先是英格蘭。威爾士於13世紀同英格蘭聯合了起來。如今只要有人提起英格蘭，你就會發現威爾士總是包括在內的。接著，英格蘭、威爾士同蘇格蘭於17世紀聯合了起來，名字就改成了「大不列顛」。令人慶幸的是，當蘇格蘭的詹姆斯國王成為英格蘭和威爾士的國王時，這三個國家和平地實現了聯合。最後，英國政府打算於20世紀初把愛爾蘭也同另外三個國家和平聯合起來以形成聯合王國。然而，愛爾蘭的南部卻不願組建聯合王國，它分離出去，並建立了自己的政府。因此只有北愛爾蘭同英格蘭、威爾士、蘇格蘭聯合起來，而組成了聯合王國，這一點從新的聯合王國國旗上就可以看得出來。
值得贊揚的是，這四個國家的確在一些方面共同合作，例如在貨幣和國際關系方面；但是有些制度仍然區別很大。例如，北愛爾蘭、英格蘭和蘇格蘭在教育體制和立法體制上都存在著差異。在參加像世界盃之類的比賽時，它們有著各自的足球隊。
在這四個國家中，英格蘭是最大的。為了方便起見，它大致可以劃分為三個地區。最靠近法國的那個地區叫做英格蘭南部，中部地區叫做英格蘭中部，最靠近蘇格蘭的那個地區叫做英格蘭北部。你可以看到英國的大部分人口聚居在南部，而多數大工業城市都位於中部和北部。盡管，英國任何一個城市都不像中國的城市那樣大，但是他們都有著自己的享有威名的足球隊，有的城市甚至還有兩個隊。很遺憾，這些建於19世紀的工業城市對遊客並沒有吸引力。要找歷史性建築你得去更古老的、比較小些的由古羅馬人建造的城鎮。在那兒你才可能找到更多的有關英國歷史和文化的東西。
最具歷史意義的寶地是倫敦。那兒有博物館，有藝術珍品、劇院、公園和各種建築物。它是全國的政治中心。它有公元一世紀由羅馬人建造的最古老的港口，有由盎格魯——撒克遜人始建於11世紀60年代的最古老的建築，還有公元1066年由後來的諾曼人統治者建造的最古老的城堡。曾經有四批侵略者到過英國。第一批入侵者是古羅馬人，留下了他們的城鎮和道路。接著是盎格魯——撒克遜人，留下了他們的語言和政體。第三是斯堪的納維亞人，他們對詞彙和北部的地名造成了一定影響；第四是諾曼人，他們留下了城堡和食物名稱的新詞語。如果你到英國鄉間去看看，你就會找到所有這些入侵者的痕跡。如果想使你的英國之旅不虛此行又有意義，你就必須留心觀察。
