these places This will be done by filling in a chart Since it is an extensive reading passage there is no need to understand it in detail But the students should pay special attention to how the

that is to introduce one of the famous buildings or attractions in their hometown or home village to a tourist They should practice in pairs by asking and answering questions Then the students will

burned down in the fire of 1666 It started on a Sunday evening in a bread shop On Tuesday evening a quarter of a million people had no homes and the fire was still burning The old St Paul s Cathedral there for a thousand years before that went in the fire The Cathedral you see today was built by Sir Christopher Wren There is also a monument to the fire near Eastcheap where there fire started and you can climb up it and look down on the city Or if you feel like climbing you can go up the 627 stairs to the top of St Paul s and look at the new city from there After the fire of London some Londoners made new homes in new parts of London Others wanted to come back but found the new houses too expensive The city started to lose its people and then when the railways came it was even easier to work in the city and live outside it In the Second World War many homes in the city were destroyed by bombs So now the city has very few shops and homes The streets are full of thousands of offices and only the street names make you think of the people who used to live there and bought their food in Fish Street and Bread Street and Milk Street 6 Some people do live in the new big blocks of flats near the Barbican one of the old Roman gates but often they only sleep there and go away for weekends The shops are shut on Saturdays and the restaurants and pubs shut at six o clock in the evening If you go into the city at eight o clock at night you feel you are in dead city while a kilometer away the streets of the West End are full of people It seems a sad end The Cockney Almost everyone who has heard of London has heard of the term Cockney 伦敦佬 Strictly speaking in order to call oneself a Cockney one should have been born within the sound of Bow bells that is to say within the sound of the bells of the church of St Mary le Bow which stands nearly in the centre of the city of London But in fact all London s citizens who were born and bred in the city may call themselves Cockneys if they like However the term is generally reserved for the Londoner with a Cockney accent They Cockney accent is not a particularly pleasant or melodious 悦耳的 one and the Cockney s distortion 扭曲 变形 of the English language is such that the foreigner often finds it impossible to understand the speaker until his ear has become acclimatized 适应 to the peculiar tones The principal characteristics of the Cockney accent consist in a general slurring of consonants and a distortion of vowel sounds The best known example of Cockney speech is modern English literature is that of Eliza Doolittle the heroine of Bernard Shaw s play Pygmalion and of the musical adapted from My Fair Lady But if Cockney speech is unpleasant the Cockney himself is usually far from being so The average Cockney is distinguished 区分 辨别 by his quick wit his ready sense of humor his ability to carry on under unusual or difficult conditions and by his willingness to be of help if he can The Cockney s humor is often satirical 讽刺的 but it is never vicious 邪恶的 he is always ready to laugh at other people s peculiarities 怪癖 but he is equally ready to laugh at his own He often makes jokes under the most difficult conditions a quality that was very apparent during World War This rather lugubrious type of humor is well exemplified 举例证明 by the title of an old Cockney music hall song Ain t It Grand To Be Blooming Well Dead Nowadays as the tempo of life in big cities grows ever faster although the Cockney opposes this process when he can the opportunities for the Cockney to exercise his wit and humor diminish 减少 变小 But if one keeps one s ears open on buses in railway stations in street markets and similar places it will soon become evident that the spirit of Cockney humor is still very much alive although the old Cockney pronunciation is less common until now Most people who call themselves Cockneys usually do so with some pride And by and large they are justified Famous Buildings in London Hyde Park Covering an area of 350 acres 140 hectares Hyde Park is one of the best known Royal parks Originally owned by the monks of Westminster Abbey the park was later seized by Henry Since then the park was historically recognized for duels 决斗 hunts and political 7 demonstrations The Rolling Stones and Pavarotti have performed concerts here amongst many others The Serpentine is an artificial lake used for boating and bathing and Speakers Corner situated at the north east is packed with soapbox speakers airing their points of view Westminster Abbey Founded in 1065 by Edward the Confessor Westminster
