永不磨灭披头士的第一批乐迷,大多出生于英国战后“婴儿潮”时代。当时的英国还在承受战后的创伤,百废待兴,饱受颠沛流离之苦的老一辈希望自己的孩子过上宁静祥和的生活,但新一代则认为循规蹈矩的生活太老套。他们渴望看到更具视觉刺激的表演方式。于是,年轻人将视线转向大洋彼岸的美国,包括格里高利·派克、奥黛丽·赫本、詹姆士·迪恩在内的许多美国明星都对英国产生了重要影响,其中又以“猫王”埃尔维斯·普雷斯利为甚。但正是披头士的出现终结了猫王的时代,彻底埋葬了猫王的王朝。作为外来的音乐文化,却统治了美国的唱片市场,并影响了此后美国本土流行音乐的发展道路甚至全球流行音乐的发展,尤其对美国唱片工业冲击形成的影响,时至几十年后的今天仍能找到遗留的痕迹。不得不说披头士作为一个音乐文化的革命者,他们的文化影响力早已超过了其艺术的本身。在披头士统治音乐市场的这几十年的时间里,早已成为了流行音乐和流行文化的标志,同时也成为了英国文化和英国历史的一个记号,更是时尚流行的风向标。与披头士乐队有关的任何东西全部都成为了最具文化内涵的商品,披头士乐队曾经使用过的任何东西都可以被以惊人的天价来拍卖。世界多个国家的邮票和明信片等纪念品上都有他们的身影,不计其数的相关主题博物馆和纪录片,电影等相关文化资料等都记录这支乐队的点滴。或许连披头士自己都未曾想到过自己会有如此的成就,会成为一些人一生不可分割的一部分。

Introduce the puzzle about the four names.
In the 16th century, the nearby country of Wales was joined to the Kingdom of England. Later, in the 18th century, the country Scotland was joined to create the Kingdom of Great Britain. In the 19th century, the Kingdom of Ireland was added to create the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Finally, in the 20th century, the southern part of Ireland broke away from the UK, which resulted in the full name we have today: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

The United Kingdom has a long and interesting history to explore, which can help you understand much more about the country and its traditions. Almost everywhere you go in the UK, you will be surrounded by evidence of four different groups of people who took over at different times throughout history. The first group, the Romans, came in the first century. Some of their great achievements included building towns and roads. Next, the Anglo-Saxons arrived in the fifth century. They introduced the beginnings of the English language, and changed the way people built houses. The Vikings came in the eighth century, left behind lots of new vocabulary, and also the names of many locations across the UK. The last group were the Normans. They conquered England after the well-known Battle of Hastings in the 11th century. They had castles built all around England, and made changes to the legal system. The Normans were French, so many French words slowly entered into the English language
