　　Ⅳ.阅读理解

　　A

　　Hundreds of years ago，a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, love their country. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland. But there were too many of the Romans.It looked as if the Romans would win.

　　One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill.“We will rest here tonight，my men，”he said，“Tomorrow we will fight one more battle.We must win，or we will die.”

　　They were all very tired.So they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep.There were four guards on duty，but they were very tired, too, and one by one, they fell asleep.

　　The Romans were not asleep.Quickly they gathered at the foot of the hill. Slowly they went up the hill. Closer they came to the sleeping Scots.They were almost at the top.A few minutes more the war would be over.Suddenly，one of them put his foot on a thistle(蓟)．He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a minute they were on their feet and ready for a battle.The fighting was hard，but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out the Romans and saved Scotland.

　　The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has

　　sharp needles all over it.Few people liked it.But the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.

　　【解题导语】 本文讲述了苏格兰人把蓟花作为他们国花的故事。在苏格兰人与罗马人交战时，由于蓟花刺痛了罗马士兵，因此惊醒了熟睡的苏格兰人。从某种意义上说是蓟花挽救了整个苏格兰，因此苏格兰人把蓟花作为他们的国花。

　　Did anyone find the names of “the British Isles”，“Great Britain”，“the United Kingdom”，“England”and “the British Commonwealth”which have the same meaning？Strictly speaking，these names all refer to something different.None

　　of them are exactly the same as any of the others.

　　The British Isles refer to the main islands and several thousand small ones as well，which you can see on the map. Great Britain，or Britain，refers to the larger of the two main islands.But the word “Britain” is often used as a short form for the United Kingdom or you call it the UK.

　　Now as for England，it refers simply to the largest of the three countries on the island of Great Britain. The United Kingdom is the name of the state and the official name of the country，which many people popularly refer to England.

　　Finally, the British Commonwealth is the usual name for what is left of the British Empire(帝国)．This change shows the weakening of British Empire and the rising of the national liberation movements throughout the world today.

　　【解题导语】 本文介绍了关于英国的几种不同称谓之间的区别。the British Commonwealth英联邦，所指范围最大，其次是the British Isles不列颠群岛，然后是Britain大不列颠。
