Para.3 Similarities and differences
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-konwn 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.

书面表达
你的美国朋友Jim打算今年来中国旅游，请你给他提建议：请给他推荐一个在中国游览的好去处，并建议他了解点中国历史。
Dear Jim,
It’s nice to hear from you. I’m writing to share with you some suggestions for your visit to China.
Knowing a little Chinese history will be helpful when you visit China. It can help you understand a lot about our country and our traditions and can make your visit much more enjoyable.
If you visit China, I recommend Xi’an which is a great place to start, an ancient city with an interesting history. There are countless historic sites for you to explore, and lots of museums with ancient items from all over China. If you keep your eyes open, you will be surprised to find that you can see both its past and its present.
Looking forward to your arrival.
Yours,
Li Hua
Thank you for your attention!
