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 顛群島 ). The largest island of the British Isles is Britain. It is also called Great Britain. The smaller island is Ireland(愛爾蘭 ). 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? 第 26題 :Which of the following is an independent country now? A. Wales. B. Scotland. C. Northern Ireland. D. The Republic of Ireland. 答案 : D 第 27題 :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 答案 : B 第 28題 :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 England is used instead of Britain. D. Britain is the only name of the largest island of British Isles. 答案 : C 第 29題 :The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is __________. A. part of Britain B. part of Ireland C. the official name of the whole country D. part of England 答案 : C 第 30題 :English was first spoken in __________. A. Britain B. England C. Great Britain D. Ireland 答案 : B 第 31題 :When the TV viewer turns on his set, what sort of programs does he have to choose from? You might think there would be more programs devoted to entertainment（娛樂） than to anything else, but that’s not the case. In most countries, fewer than 20% of broadcasting hours are devoted to entertainment. . Figures are high — %， and the Figures of Canadians are even higher with 44%. Except Canada and Italy, all countries give more broadcasting time to education than to either information (news, documentaries(紀錄片 ) and so on) or entertainment programs. Of course, few educational broadcasts take place during peak(最高的 ) viewing times. In Japan though, more than 60% of broadcasting time is taken up with education of one kind of another — just another example of the businesslike Japanese philosophy(哲學 ). In the ., the figure is %. The Italians have fewer educational programs than anyone else. They don’t go in for entertainment either. Only about ten percent of viewing time is devoted to dramas and serials, quiz shows, music, sports, etc. You will find more news information programs on Italian TV than anything else. That’s understandable in a country experiencing social and political changes. Italians rely on TV to tell them what’s going on — and events are happening almost too fast to follow. The percentage of time the . devoted to news and documentary programs is much smaller. After education, most TV time is given to entertainment. Many of these programs are shown around the world. 第 32題 :More news information programs are broadcast on Italian TV than anywhere else because the Italians __________. A. are interested in what is happening in the world B. like to undergo social and political changes C. prefer to learn news information on TV rather than in newspapers D. expect TV to tell them the latest news about what is going on in their country 答案 : D 第 33題 :In the United States, __________.
