名為何物?

聯(lián)合王國、大不列顛、英國、英格蘭-這些不同的名稱是何意思，許多人感到困惑。那么，如果這些名稱有區(qū)別的話，區(qū)別何在?稍微了解一下英國歷史，就可以幫助你解開這個(gè)謎題。十六世紀(jì)時(shí)，鄰國威爾士并入英格蘭王國。隨后，蘇格蘭在十八世紀(jì)也加入進(jìn)來，從而誕生了大不列顛王國。十九世紀(jì)時(shí)，愛爾蘭王國加人，組成了大不列顛及愛爾蘭聯(lián)合王國。最后，在二十世紀(jì)時(shí)，愛爾蘭南部脫離了聯(lián)合王國，形成了今天的英國全稱:大不列顛及北愛爾蘭聯(lián)合王國。大多數(shù)人只是使用簡稱:“聯(lián)合王國”。聯(lián)合王國的人被稱為“英國人”，這意味著聯(lián)合王國也經(jīng)常被稱為英國或大不列顛。

同屬于聯(lián)合王國的這四個(gè)國家在某些領(lǐng)域緊密合作。像擁有同樣的貨幣和國防一樣，他們也使用同一面國旗。然而，它們之間仍有諸多區(qū)別。例如，英格蘭、威爾士、蘇格蘭及北愛爾蘭實(shí)行不同的教育和法律制度。它們也有各自的傳統(tǒng)，比如有自己的國慶節(jié)和本國菜肴。它們甚至擁有自己的足球隊(duì)，出征諸如“世界杯”之類的賽事!

英國歷史源遠(yuǎn)流長、別有趣味，等待你去探索，幫助你更加深入地了解這一國家及其傳統(tǒng)。英國歷史上有四個(gè)不同民族在不同歷史時(shí)期執(zhí)掌這個(gè)國家。無論你身處英國何方，這些民族的遺跡都隨處可見。第一族群是古羅馬人，于公元一世紀(jì)進(jìn)入英國。羅馬人的偉大成就在于他們建立了城鎮(zhèn)、修建了道路。之后是盎格魯一撒克遜人，于公元五世紀(jì)到達(dá)英國。他們引入了英語的雛形，并改變了人們建造房屋的方式。維京人于公元八世紀(jì)到來，留下了諸多新的詞匯，并給英國境內(nèi)的許多地方命名。最后一個(gè)是諾曼人。十一世紀(jì)著著名的黑斯廷斯戰(zhàn)役之后，諾曼人征服了英格蘭，四處修建城堡，并改革了法律制度。諾曼人即為法去國人，許多法語單詞因此慢慢進(jìn)入了英語。

英國的歷史文化引人入勝，可學(xué)之處比比皆是。學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè)國家的歷史，你的英國之旅將更為愉快。以首都倫敦為第一站，是個(gè)不錯(cuò)的選擇。倫敦是一個(gè)古老的港口城市，其歷史可以追溯到羅馬時(shí)代。市內(nèi)可供游覽的歷史遺址數(shù)不勝數(shù)，還有許多博物館陳列著來自英國各地的文物。在英國，歷史與現(xiàn)代文化交融，新舊傳統(tǒng)并存，引人入勝。用心去觀察，英國的過去與現(xiàn)在都將展示在你面前，令你嘆為觀止。LearningobjectivesInthisclass,wewillFigureoutthemainideaofeachparagraph;LearnaboutthehistoryandtraditionsoftheUK;Discussandexpressyourownideasonthegiventopic.GreatBritain?theUnitedKingdom?
