35、thriller伦敦观光记由于担心时间不够，张萍玉早就把她想要在伦敦参观的地点列了一张单子。她最先想参观的地方是伦敦塔，它是很久以前由入侵的诺曼人在公元1066年修建的。真是太棒了！这个坚实的用石头砌的方形塔已经屹立在那儿一千年了。尽管在塔的四周扩建了一些建筑，但它仍然是皇宫和监狱联合体的一个组成部分。让张萍玉十分惊讶的是，她发现女王的珠宝由皇家的特别卫士守护着，而这些卫士在一些特殊的日子仍然穿着400年前伊丽莎白一世女王时代的制服。接着参观的是圣保罗大教堂，它是1666年可怕的伦敦大火以后建造的，刚建成的时候，它看起来真是金碧辉煌。伦敦威斯敏斯特大教堂也是很有意思的地方，里面珍藏着一些已故诗
36、人和作家的雕像，例如莎士比亚的雕像。正当萍玉从大教堂往外走的时候，她听到了著名的大本钟在整点敲响的钟声。她参观了女王伦敦住所白金汉宫的外景，以此结束了一天的观光。啊，她要同朋友们讲的实在太多了！第二天，萍玉姑娘参观了格林尼治天文台，看到了古老的轮船和著名的为世界定时的时钟。她最感兴趣的是那条通过天文台的经线。这是一条假想的线，它把世界分成东西两半球，从而有利于航海。这条线穿过格林尼治，萍玉就跨着这条线拍了一张照片。最后一天，她参观了伦敦海格特公墓里的卡尔马克思的雕像。这似乎是一件怪事：这位发展了共产主义的人竟然在伦敦生活过，并且在伦敦去世。不仅如此，他还在著名的大英博物馆的图书馆阅览室里工作过
37、。遗憾的是，这个图书馆已经从原来的地方搬到另一座大楼里去了，而原来的阅览室也没有了。但是她感到最为震惊的却是博物馆里展出的那么多来自不同文化的奇妙宝物。当萍玉看到那么多参观者用欣赏的目光注视着古老漂亮的中国陶瓷和其他展品时，心里充满了对祖国的自豪感。第二天，萍玉就要离开伦敦去温莎城堡了。她边睡觉边想：“也许我能见到女王呢？”课后演练提能基础题.单词拼写1The cost is 22, p_ 1 for postage.答案：plus2He f_ the map up and put it in his pocket.答案：folded3Shes not very c_ in the way s
