大本钟(Big Ben)Big Ben is one of London's best-known landmarks, and looks most spectacular at night when the clock faces are illuminated. You even know when parliament is in session, because a light shines above the clock face.The four dials of the clock are 23 feet square, the minute hand is 14 feet long and the figures are 2 feet high. Minutely regulated with a stack of coins placed on the huge pendulum, Big Ben is an excellent timekeeper, which has rarely stopped.The name Big Ben actually refers not to the clock-tower itself, but to the thirteen ton bell hung within. The bell was named after the first commissioner of works, Sir Benjamin Hall.This bell came originally from the old Palace of Westminster, it was given to the Dean of St. Paul's by William III. Before returning to Westminster to hang in its present home, it was refashioned in Whitechapel in 1858. The BBC first broadcast the chimes on the 31st December 1923 - there is a microphone in the turret connected to Broadcasting House.During the second world war in 1941, an incendiary bomb destroyed the Commons chamber of the Houses of Parliament, but the clock tower remained intact and Big Ben continued to keep time and strike away the hours, its unique sound was broadcast to the nation and around the world, a welcome reassurance of hope to all who heard it.There are even cells within the clock tower where Members of Parliament can be imprisoned for a breach of parliamentary privilege, though this is rare; the last recorded case was in 1880.The tower is not open to the general public, but those with a "special interest" may arrange a visit to the top of the Clock Tower through their local (UK) MP. 大本钟(Big Ben)是英国最著名的地标, 与英国国会大厦相连. 大本钟因其走时准确而名扬四海。每隔一小时,大钟根据格林威治时间发出沉重而铿锵的响声, 在数英里之外也能听到钟声的回荡.

Big Ben is the nickname for the great bell of the clock at the north end of the Palace of Westminster in London,[1] and often extended to refer to the clock and the clock tower.[2] The tower is now officially called the Elizabeth Tower, after being renamed to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. The Elizabeth Tower holds the largest four-facedchiming clock in the world and is the third-tallest free-standing clock tower.[3] The tower was completed in 1858 and had its 150th anniversary on 31 May 2009,[4] during which celebratory events took place.[5][6] The Elizabeth Tower has become one of the most prominent symbols of both London and England and is often in the establishing shot of films set in the city.大本钟(英语:Big Ben,或翻译成大笨钟、大鹏钟)是英国国会会议厅附属钟楼的大报时钟的昵称,也常代指该钟所在的钟楼 。[1]大本钟坐落在英国伦敦泰晤士河畔的威斯敏斯特宫钟塔上,是伦敦的标志之一。钟楼高95米,钟直径9英尺,重13.5吨。每15分钟响一次,敲响威斯敏斯特钟声。自从兴建地铁朱比利线之后,大本钟受到影响,最近测量显示大本钟朝西北方向倾斜约半米[2]。大本钟的命名来源众说纷纭,有一种说法称大本钟的名字来自于本杰明·豪尔爵士。大钟于1858年4月10日建成,是英国最大的钟。塔起码有320英尺高(约合97.5米),分针有14英尺长(约合4.27米),大本钟用人工发条,国会开会期间,钟面会发出光芒,每隔一小时报时一次。每年的夏季与冬天时间转换时会把钟停止,进行零件的修补、交换,钟的调音等。大本钟的可靠性毋庸置疑,自从建成,伦敦格林威治天文台的官员每天两次派人校对此钟。不过有一次它把时间报错了,因为一名在大本钟上作业的油漆粉刷工在钟面上挂了一个油漆桶,把钟弄慢了。[来源请求]2009年6月1日,欢庆启用150周年。2012年6月26日,英国政府宣布为庆祝伊丽莎白二世登基60周年,将大本钟所在的钟楼正式改名为伊丽莎白塔。[3]。非原创,均贴自WIKIPIDEA

The Big Ben is located in the tower at the eastern end of the Houses of Parliament, Westminster, Greater London. It was designed by Edmund Beckett and Baron Grimthorpe. When most people heat the words "Big Ben" they immediately conjure up an image of the striking Victorian Gothic structure of the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster (the Houses of Parliament). Let's clear up a common misconception first; technically speaking, the name "Big Ben" does not refer to the famous tower, nor to the four huge clock faces of this London landmark; instead, it refers to the largest of the five bells inside the clock tower, whose chimes are such a familiar sound to listeners to BBC radio over the years.
