Кадр 1 (видео)  The Houses of Parliament, Big Ben

Pupil-tourist: What is that magnificent building?
Pupil :  It is The Palace of Westminster or the Houses of Parliament, the mother of parliaments. It was Edward the Confessor who built it in the 11th century. William the Conqueror didn't like the palace, so he completely rebuilt it. Other kings and queens extended it and made it their main residence. The last king to live there was King Henry VIII, but in 1512, after a fire, he moved out and the Palace of Westminster ceased to be a royal residence and became the seat of the Houses of Parliament.
Pupil-tourist: It`s really very interesting...Oh, look there! It`s Big Ben, isn`t it?
Pupil : You are right. Big Ben is one of London's most famous landmarks. In fact, Big Ben is not the name of the clock on the Tower of Westminster, but it is the nickname of the bell inside. It was made in 1858.
Pupil-tourist: Why is it called Big Ben?
Pupil : Nobody knows for sure why Big Ben is called Big Ben, but many people think it was something to do with Sir Benjamin Hall, a rather fat man who was in charge of the building works at Westminster and whose nickname was 'Big Ben'
