… Middle School Date : Thursday, April 18th,2019 Level: MS4 The Last Term Test Duration: 1hour Big Ben BIG BEN is one of London’s most famous landmarks. Big Ben is situated in the Elizabeth Tower in the north end of The Houses of Parliament in Westminster, Central London, next to the river Thames. Big Ben is actually the name of the huge bell, which weighs more than 13 tons (13,760 kg), but most people use it to refer to the clock and the tower as well. It is the world’s largest chiming clock with four faces. Each face is 7 meters in diameter. The bell is just over 213 meters tall and weighs about the same as an elephant. The clock tower was built between 1843 and 1858. When it was cast in 1858, it took two weeks for the bell to cool down. In June 2012, the clock tower was renamed into Elizabeth Tower in honor of Queen Elizabeth.

Elizabeth Tower is 96 meters high. Although the public is not allowed inside, there are great views from the nearby London Eye. The clock tower has featured in dozens of films, including “Shanghai Knights “ and the 1978 version of “The 39 Steps”. Both films feature an exciting climax with the hero hanging from the clock’s hands. Big Ben’s chimes have been famous for over 150 years. In the past, it was too difficult to remove the bell and repair it. Nowadays specialist teams carry out regular adjustments to the Great Clock in order to ensure that the UK’s most famous clock continues to keep time.
