A famous clock ;大本钟简介 　　英国伦敦著名古钟或称大本钟(Big Ben)，是伦敦的传统地标。 　　大本钟从1859年就为伦敦城报时，根据格林尼治时间每隔一小时敲响一次，至今将近一个半世纪，尽管这期间大本钟曾两度裂开而重铸。现在大本钟的钟声仍然清晰、动听。自从1859年投入使用后，英国政府每隔五年就要对大本钟实施维护，包括清洗钟体、替换大本钟的报时轮系和运转轮系等。 名称由来 　　大本钟得名于它在1859年修建时的建造者本杰明爵士(Benjamin Hall)，故名“大本”。;parliament;parliament n.议会，国会;observatory n. 天文台;observe vt. ①看到,注意到，观察到 The police observed a man enter the bank. 警察注意到一个男人走进了银行 ②说话；评论 He observed that it was a lovely day. ;check n/v. 检查 n.支票;check in 登记 He has just checked in at the hotel. 他刚刚在旅馆办好住宿手续。 check out 检查出来 check your answer(s) 核对答案;tower n. 塔;回答同学提问的单词 （不需拼写） 正确加10分;Language points:;Special difficulties:;9.现在进行时的被动语态：am /is /are being done过去进行时的被动语态：was/were being done;12. as well 也 （通常放在句末）e.g. 他会唱歌，也会弹吉他。;17. rarely adv. 几乎不 ，很少 =hardlye.g. She is rarely seen in public nowadays. 如今她很少公开露面。 ;21. hang (hung,hung) 挂，悬挂; If 引导的非真实条件句;take its name from 以……命名 The Hubble telescope takes its name from Hubble .
