The British Isles consist of two large islands. One is called Ireland and 1 Britain. Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger one of these two islands, and it is 2 into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England.
The United Kingdom is that part of the British Isles 3 by the Queen. It is made up of Scotland, Wales and England, that is, the whole of Britain, and also about one sixth of Ireland, the northern part. The 4 of Ireland is self-governing. The full name of the United Kingdom is 5 “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”.
England is 6 and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland,and has the most 7 of the United Kingdom, so people often use the 8 “England” and “English” when they say “Britain” and “British”. This sometimes makes the Scots and the Welsh a little 9 . The Scots in particular are very 10 of their separate nationality. The Welsh too do not 11 themselves as the English, and have a culture and even a language of their own.
Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801, but for forty years the “Irish Question” was the greatest headache of the United Kingdom. 12 , Ireland was divided into two: Northern Ireland still 13 to the United Kingdom, and in 1922 the rest of Ireland 14 to found an Irish Free State,later called Eire and now the Republic of Ireland.
The Republic of Ireland does not regard itself as part of Britain, and is not now even a supporter of the Commonwealth of Nations. Unlike the major Commonwealth countries, it did not lift a finger to 15 British in the Second World War and now wants the whole of Ireland to be a republic.

Ⅲ.[文章大意] 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了英国的地理概况、组成部分及历史渊源等。
1.B 由上文中的“…two large islands. One is called Ireland…”可知,此处为两个中的另一个。
2.A 不列颠,或称大不列颠,是这两个岛屿中较大的一个,它被分为三个部分:苏格兰、威尔士和英格兰。 be divided into意为“被分成……”。
3.D 由该句并结合常识可知,the United Kingdom就是the British Isles中被女王统治的那一部分。watch out小心提防;take up拿起,从事;defend against防卫,保卫;rule over统治,支配。
4.C 爱尔兰分为两部分,北部由英国统治,其他部分自治。 smaller更小的;bigger更大的;rest其余的;island岛。
5.B 由上文可知the United Kingdom包括 Scotland,Wales,England以及 Northern Ireland,又因 Scotland,Wales和England就是指整个 Britain,因此 the United Kingdom全称为“The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”。 so所以;therefore因此;likely可能的;perhaps或许,大概。
6.D 英格兰比其他的地方更大,更富有。meaner更吝啬的;wider更宽的;poorer更穷的;larger更大的。
7.D 英格兰比苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰更大、更富有,拥有英国的大部分人口,所以人们提起 Britain和 British这两个词时常用 England和English来代替。college大学;official官员;city城市;population人口。
8.A 解析参考上一题。word单词;name名字;spelling拼写;pronunciation发音。
9.A 因为威尔士和苏格兰也属于不列颠,所以这样做自然让威尔士人和苏格兰人都有点生气。angry生气的;cautious谨慎的;enjoyable快乐的;lonely寂寞的。
10.A 此处指尤其是苏格兰人,他们以自己是不同的民族而自豪。be proud of意为“为……自豪或骄傲”,符合语境。
11.D 此处表示威尔士人也不把自己看作英格兰人。respect尊重;rank排列;elect选举,选择;regard将……认为,把……视为。
12.A 爱尔兰最终被分为两部分。finally最后;however然而;meanwhile与此同时;instead代替。
13.B 北爱尔兰仍旧属于英国。belong to意为“属于”。
14.C 1922年爱尔兰剩余的部分脱离了出来。 turn away拒绝……进入;run away逃跑;break away脱离,放弃;keep away远离,回避。
15.D 爱尔兰共和国在二战中一点都没有帮助英国人。由“lift a finger”可知此处指帮助。 unite使……联合;reject拒绝;fight战斗;help帮助。Unit 4 HISTORY AND TRADITIONS Period Two (2) 限时30分钟
