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. The Big Ben is very famous throughout the world, but nobody really knows why it is called Big Ben. There are two hearsays about this. Some people say that it was named after Benjamin Caunt, a boxer, who was called Big Ben. More people believe it was called after Welshman, Sir Benjamin Hall. He was the commissioner of the work at the time of its installation in 1859. A story was told that during a debate in the Commons on what to call the bell, Sir Benjamin was about to give his ideas when a MP who sat behind the front bench shouted, Let's call it Big Ben! Then this name came into being. The bell hasn't gone through a smooth road since the beginning of its design. Because there was great disagreement about the design of the clock, it took fifteen years to build. In 1857, the bell was completed and tested on the ground, but a four-foot crack appeared and the bell had to be cast again. Finally, the clock started ticking on 31 May, 1859, and struck its first chime on 11, July. Then in September, the bell cracked again. It was silent for four years but was eventually turned a quarter of a revolution. In this way, the crack was not under the striking hammer. Craftsmen made a square above the crack to stop it graving longer and it can still be seen today. The Big Ben is famous not only for its 13-ton weight, but also for its accuracy which is a result of its precise mechanism. Even one extra penny's weight on the balance will cause a gain of two fifths of a second in twenty four hours. Although there have been several problem, the bell is still striking today. Its chimes can be heard all over the world on the B.B.C.

Shaolin Temple is situated in the beautiful Songshan Mountains, which is only eight miles of Dengfeng and about 50 miles southwest of Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province.Shaolin Temple was established in 495 during the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534). Batuo, an Indian monk, came to Luoyang, the ancient capital, for spreading Buddhism at that period.

自学英语
翻译证有两种,一种是CATTI,全国的资格考试,属于人事局;另一种是NAETI,翻译证书考试,属于教育局。
应该是前者含金量高些。
两种考试每年都能考两次,CATTI考两门,综合和实务,合格标准多数情况下是各科60分,取得后需要三年一登记(、考试、登记);NAETI考一门,相当于前者的实务,合格线是70分,终身有效。
我考的是CATTI英语笔译,建议从三级开始考,一开始就考二级对于非的太困难了(我不是)。
口译我没报过,笔译的话因为允许带两本词典,所以要准备英汉、汉英两本内容全面的词典,我用的是牛津高阶英汉和新世纪汉英,词典要提前熟悉,别到临考才买,虽然要查的词并不多,但是不能在翻字典上浪费时间,考试时间很紧张。
另外有本书觉得不错<<全国资格(水平)考试三级英语笔译实务翻译技法与实战演练>>。
