Describe a historical event from your country 本国历史事件 You should say: what the event was when and where it happened how you learnt about this event and explain why you remember this event so well 接近9分的范文： 1.Brief introduction I’m going to tell you about what I think was a really significant event in British history – the Battle of Hastings. 2.When it happened I guess that this is one of those dates that almost every British person knows – even if they don’t know much about history. It happened in 1066 – almost a thousand years ago now – but I still think that it’s one of those really important events – not just for what happened at the time but because it still matters today. 3.What happened In a nutshell what happened was that the French – or the Normans better said – invaded England. The actual set of events is a bit more complex than that of course – as history always is. I’m no historian but I seem to remember that there were two invasions almost at the same time – a Viking army came to the north of England and the Normans crossed the Channel and landed in the south. The upshot was that Norman army defeated the Anglo- Saxons and took control of the whole country. 4.Who was involved The two main protagonists were William the Conqueror as we now call him and Harold – the Saxon king. Again, they’re two historical figures that almost everyone can name. Harold was particularly famous for being shot with an arrow through the eye. 5.Why it was important As I said a bit before it was really significant. Some people claim that it was the last time England was ever successfully invaded. But for me the real importance is that because of the Battle of Hastings the English language changed completely – half of it now comes from French really and that’s all down to Battle of Hastings and William the Conqueror. 附part3的相关问题 Do you like history?
