•大本钟简介：•英国伦敦著名古钟或称大本钟(BigBen)，是伦敦的传统地标。•大本钟从1859年就为伦敦城报时，根据格林尼治时间每隔一小时敲响一次，至今将近一个半世纪，尽管这期间大本钟曾两度裂开而重铸。现在大本钟的钟声仍然清晰、动听。自从1859年投入使用后，英国政府每隔五年就要对大本钟实施维护，包括清洗钟体、替换大本钟的报时轮系和运转轮系等。•名称由来：•大本钟得名于它在1859年修建时的建造者本杰明霍尔爵士(BenjaminHall)，故名“大本”。•Onecan’tputbacktheclock.•时钟不能倒转。•Onthegreatclockoftimethereisbutoneword,“Now.”•在伟大的时钟上，只有一个词，就是“现在”。parliamentn.议会，国会theHousesofParliament国会大厦theBritishParliament英国国会TheBritishParliamentconsistsoftheHouseofLordsandtheHouseoftheCommons.英国议会是由上议院和下议院构成的。erectv.建造，建立，成立e.g.他们在山脚下支起了帐篷。Theyerectedtheirtentatthefootofthemountain.erectionn.建立e.g.盖这所医院是个大错误。Theerectionofthehospitalisabigmistake.accurateadj.准确的;精确的accuratetimeaccuratelyadv.准确地，精确地准确的时间精确的记录e.g.必须保存精确的记录。Accuraterecordsmustbekept.accuraterecord•official•1）adj.正式的；官方的；公务上的•e.g.这位总统想对那个国家进行正式访问。•ThePresidentwantstomakeanofficialvisittothecountry.•公款officialfunds•官方文件officialdocuments•2）n.官员•e.g.那位戴眼镜的男士是一位高级官员。•Themanwithglassesisahigh/seniorofficial.observatoryn.天文台observatoryn.天文台•observevt.观察；遵守；注意到•e.g.他总是仔细地观察星星。•Healwaysobservesthestarscarefully.•e.g.每位公民都应该遵守交通规则。•Everyoneshouldobservetrafficrules.•e.g.你最近有没有注意到有什么奇怪的东西?•Haveyouobservedanythingstrangerecently?美国人常用check指“支票”，而英国人则常用cheque。•checkv.检查•checkin登记•e.g.他刚刚在旅馆办好住宿手续。•Hehasjustcheckedinatthehotel.•checkout检查•e.g.你可以检查一下他的网站。•Youcancheckouthiswebsite.towern.塔towerbridge塔桥watertower水塔1、WhenyouvisitLondon,oneofthefirstthingsyouwillseeisBigBen,thefamousclockwhichcanbeheardallovertheworldontheB.B.C.•oneof+名词复数（前面可以用序数词，最高级等修饰）•e.g.最著名的歌手之一•oneofthemostfamoussingers•allovertheworld全世界•theB.B.C是英国广播公司的缩写，它的全称为：BritishBroadcastingCorporation2、IftheHousesofParliamenthadnotbeenburneddownin1834,thegreatclockwouldneverhavebeenerected.if引导的非真实条件句,表示对过去事实的虚拟。•对过去事情的虚拟：•if+从句（过去完成时）,主句（wouldhavedone）•e.g.要是我在学校时再努力一点，我现在就会有一个更好的工作了。•对现在事情的虚拟：•if+从句（一般过去时）,主句（woulddo）•e.g.如果我是你，我就努力工作。IfIwereyou,Iwouldworkhard.IfIhadworkedharderatschool,Iwouldhavegotabetterjob.3、BigBentakesitsnamefromSirBenjaminHallwhowasresponsibleforthemakingoftheclockwhenthenewHousesofParliamentwerebeingbuilt.•takeitsnamefrom以……命名•e.g.哈勃望远镜是以哈勃的名字来命名的。•TheHubbletelescopetakesitsnamefromHubble.•beresponsiblefor为……负责•e.g.她是我的孩子并且我对她负责。•SheismychildandIamresponsibleforher.•e.g.每个人应该对他们自己负责。•Everyoneshouldberesponsibleforthemselves.4、Itisnotonlyofimmensesize,butisextremelyaccurateaswell.•notonly…but…aswell不但…而且…•相当于notonly...butalso...•但是aswell放在句尾。e.g.我不仅是名学生，而且也是一名工人。•Iamnotonlyastudentbutaworkeraswell.•extremelyaccurate极其精确（副词修饰形容词）•strikev.敲钟，打，打击（struck,struck)•connect…to…把……连接到……•theclocktower钟塔•rarelyadv.几乎不•gowrong出错，出故障•failtodosth.没有做某事，失败做某事•givethecorrecttime给予正确的时间5.OntheB.B.C.youcanheartheclockwhenitisactuallystrikingbecausemicrophonesareconnectedtotheclocktower.BigBenhasrarelygonewrong.Once,however,itfailedtogivethecorrecttime.6、Apainterwhohadbeenworkingonthetowerhungapotofpaintononeofthehandsandsloweditdown!•hangsth.on...把某物挂在...上•apotofpaint一罐油漆•oneofthehands一根指针•e.g.时钟的指针•slow…down使...慢下来;减速,降低速度•e.g.在车辆拥挤的路上驾驶时,他放慢了车速。•Heslowedhiscardownwhiledrivinginheavytraffic.thehandsoftheclock•officialn.官员，高级官员(可数名词)•officialfrom来自……的官员•officialsfromGreenwichObservatory•来自于格林尼治天文台的官员们•official,employee,shopassistant•official:官员，公务员，高级官员•employee:雇员，雇工（包括各个阶层）•shopassistant:零售店的店员（美语中用salesclerk）1.TheCustoms_______askedmeseveralquestions.2.Overathousandfactory__________wentonstrike.3.Sheworksasa____________inaclothingstore.4.The______________whoservedmewasveryhelpful.officialemployeesshopassistantshopassistanthang(hanged,hanged)v.绞死,上吊hang(hung,hung)v.悬挂TranslatethetwosentencesintoChinese.e.g.I’mhangingthispictureonthewall.e.g.Iwonderwhyshehangedherself.我想知道她为什么上吊自杀。我正把这幅画挂到墙上。e.g.Manyofhisfinestpicturesare______(悬挂)intheNationalMuseum.hung1.allovertheworld2.theHousesofParliament3.burndown4.takeitsnamefrom5.beresponsiblefor6.notonly…butalso/…aswell7.twiceaday8.connectto9.gowrong10.failtodosth11.apotofpaint12.slowdown1.全世界2.国会大厦3.焚毁4.以...命名5.对...负责6.不仅...而且...7.一天两次8.把...连接到...9.出故障10.失败做某事11.一罐油漆12.使...慢下来
