As you are students of English, it’s very possible that you’ll be interested in England. That’s where the language was first spoken. But England is often called by other names. This often confuses people and I wonder if you know what these names mean. So, now I would like to tell you about this matter of names. I believe that you have heard people use the names—England, Britain or Great Britain. Let’s see what each of these names means. If you look at a map of Europe, you’ll see a group of islands—one larger island off the northwest coast, one smaller and many tiny ones. These make up what is called the British Isles (不列颠群岛). The largest island of the British Isles is Britain. It is also called Great Britain. The smaller island is Ireland (爱尔兰). Britain is divided into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England. But sometimes the Word “England” is used instead of “Britain”. Why so? In ancient times, what is Britain now used to be three different countries. People in These different countries spoke different language. Over many years the three countries became one. England is the largest and richest of the three and it has the most people. So the English people take it for granted that their own name stands for the whole island.There’s another thing that confuses people: sometimes you may hear people say “the Untied Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. That is official name of the country. Northern Ireland is only one sixth of the island of Ireland. The rest of the island is an independent state, called the Republic of Ireland. So we have the names of “England”, “Britain”, “Great Britain”, and “the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. Now do you know what each of them means?(1). English was first spoken in ( ) A. Britain B. England C. Great Britain D. Ireland (2). Britain is divided into( ) A. England, Britain, and Wales B. England, Scotland, and Wales C. Wales, Scotland, and Great Britain D. Great Britain, Wales, and Scotland (3). According to the passage, which of the following statements is true? A. Wales is the richest of the three B. Scotland is the largest of the three C. Sometimes English is used instead of Britain D. Britain is the only name of the largest island of British Isles (4). The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is ( ) A. part of Britain B. part of British Isles C. the official name of the whole country England D. the largest country of all mentioned in the passage (5). Which of the following is an independent country? A. B. Wales C. Scotland D. Northern IrelandThe Republic of Ireland 2. Summers with father were always enjoyable. Swimming, hiking, boating, fishing – the days were not long enough to contain all of our activities. There never seemed to be enough time to go church, which disturbed some friends and relations. Accused of neglecting this part of our education, my father accepted their criticism. He decided to institute a summer school for my brother and me. However, his summer course included ancient history, which Papa felt our schools neglected, and navigation, in which we first had a formal examination in the dining room, part of which consisted of tying several knots in a given time limit. Then we were each separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise (巡游) in my father’s 18-foot knockabout. WE spent the night on board, and loaded down, according to my mother, with enough food for a week. I remember that on my cruise I was required to formally plot our course, using the tide table, even though our goal was an island I could see clearly across the water in the distance.(1).

We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn''t even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed at a chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said, "Very dirty floors." "Yes, I''m glad they''ve finally decided to clean them." the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, "But aren''t you working late?" Mum just pushed harder each swipes (拖一下) of the mop, taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to write in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door. Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, "Thank you." Outside, Mum told me, "Dagmar is fine. No fever." "You saw her. Mum?""Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. It''s a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."(1).
