Big ben. The big clock on the tower of the Palace of Westminster in London is often called Big Ben. But Big Ben is really the bell of the clock. It is the biggest clock bell in Britain. It weighs 13.5 tons.
The clock tower is 318 feet high. You have to go up 374 steps to reach the top. So the clock looks small from the pavement below the tower.
But its face is 23 feet wide. It would only just fit into some classrooms.
The minute-hand is 14 feet long. Its weight is equal to that of two bags of coal. The hour-hand is 9 feet long.
The clock bell is called Big Ben after Sir Benjamin Hall. He had the job to see that the bell was put up.
Sir Benjamin was a big man. One day he said in Parliament, «Shall we call the bell St. Stephen’s?» St. Stephen’s is the name of the tower.
But someone said for a joke, «Why not call it Big Ben?» Now the bell is known all over the world by that name.

Magazines

There are over 11,000 magazines and periodicals in the United States. More than 4,000 of them appear monthly, and over 1,300 are published each week. They cover all topics and interests, from art and architecture to tennis, from aviation and gardening to computers and literary criticism. Quite a few have international editions, are translated into other languages, or have «daughter» editions in other countries. Among the many internationals are National Geographic, Reader’s Digest, Cosmopolitan, Vogue, Time, Newsweek, Scientific American, and Psychology Today. The weekly newsmagazines — the best known are Time, Newsweek, and U.S. News & World Report — serve as a type of national press. They also have considerable international impact, above all Time. This newsmagazine appears each week in several international editions. There are some for various parts of the United States, for the Far East, for Australia, for Europe, and so on. Time claims that although the advertising changes in each edition, the content remains the same internationally. This is not quite true: in the U.S. editions, for instance, there is no section called «European Notes.» In any case, no other single news publication is read so widely by so many people internationally as is Time.
There are two other reasons why Time has such international influence. First, several other newsmagazines were modeled on Time. Among these are the leading newsmagazines in France, Germany, and Italy. Secondly, Time also sells news, news features, interviews, photographs, graphics, and charts to other publications throughout the world. Feature stories that first appear in Time are therefore echoed in many other publications in many other countries.The newsmagazines are all aimed at the average, educated reader. There are also many periodicals which treat serious educational, political, and cultural topics at length. The best known of these include The Atlantic Monthly, Harvard Educational Review, Saturday Review, The New Republic, National Review, Foreign Affairs, Smithsonian, and, of course, The New Yorker. Such widely read periodicals, along with the hundreds of professional journals, provide a broad and substantial forum for serious discussion. Again, a lot of what first appears in these publications is often reprint internationally or in book form. Many of the long The New Yorker essays, for example, have later appeared in shortened form in publications such as England’s The Observer Magazine or Germany’s Die Zeit.
There is a strong market for such serious publications. National Geographic has an average circulation of over 10 million, Consumer Reports some 3 million, Smithsonian (published by the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C.) over 2 million copies, Scientific American (U.S. edition) over 700,000, and Saturday Review- and The New Yorker over half a million each. More popular and less demanding publications, such as Family Circle, Woman’s Day, or National Enquirer, of course, have a huge readership and sell over 4.5 million copies of each issue. Altogether, there are about 60 magazines in the United States that sell over 1 million copies per issue each, and roughly the same number with more than 500,000 copies per issue.

Биг Бен. Большие часы на башне Вестминстерского дворца в Лондоне часто называют Биг Бен. But Big Ben is really the bell of the clock. Но Биг Бен действительно колокол часов. It is the biggest clock bell in Britain. Это большие часы- колокол в Британии. It weighs 13.5 tons. Он весит 13,5 тонн.
The clock tower is 318 feet high. Башня с часами высокой 318 футов. You have to go up 374 steps to reach the top. Вы должны подняться 374 шагов, чтобы достичь вершины. So the clock looks small from the pavement below the tower. Так часы выглядит маленьким от тротуара под башней.
But its face is 23 feet wide. Но его лицо широкое 23 футов. It would only just fit into some classrooms. Было бы только вписаться в некоторых классах.
The minute-hand is 14 feet long. Минутная стрелка длиной 14 футов. Its weight is equal to that of two bags of coal. Ее вес равен, что из двух мешков угля. The hour-hand is 9 feet long. Часовая стрелка длиной 9 футов.
The clock bell is called Big Ben after Sir Benjamin Hall. Часы колокол называется Биг-Бен в честь сэра Бенджамина Холла. He had the job to see that the bell was put up. Он имел работу, чтобы увидеть, что колокол был поднят.
Sir Benjamin was a big man. Сэр Бенджамин большой человек. One day he said in Parliament, «Shall we call the bell St. Stephen’s?» Однажды он заявил в парламенте, «мы назовем колокол Святого Стефана?» St. Stephen’s is the name of the tower. Святого Стефана название башни.
But someone said for a joke, «Why not call it Big Ben?» Но кто-то сказал в шутку, «Почему бы не назвать его Биг-Бен?» Now the bell is known all over the world by that name. Теперь колокол известен во всем мире по этому имени.

There are over 11,000 magazines and periodicals in the United States. Есть более 11000 журналов и периодических изданий в Соединенных Штатах. More than 4,000 of them appear monthly, and over 1,300 are published each week. Более 4000 из них появляются ежемесячно, и более 1300 публикуются каждую неделю. They cover all topics and interests, from art and architecture to tennis, from aviation and gardening to computers and literary criticism. Они охватывают все темы и интересы, от искусства и архитектуры до тенниса, от авиации и садоводства на компьютерах и литературной критики. Quite a few have international editions, are translated into other languages, or have «daughter» editions in other countries. Довольно немногие из них имеют международные издания, переводятся на другие языки, или «дочерние» издания в других странах. Among the many internationals are National Geographic, Reader’s Digest, Cosmopolitan, Vogue, Time, Newsweek, Scientific American, and Psychology Today. Среди многих представителей зарубежных National Geographic, Ридерз Дайджест, Cosmopolitan, Vogue, Time, Newsweek, Scientific American, и современной психологии. The weekly newsmagazines — the best known are Time, Newsweek, and US News & World Report — serve as a type of national press. Еженедельные-политических журналов — наиболее известны Время, Newsweek, и US News & World Report — служить своего рода национальной прессы. They also have considerable international impact, above all Time. Они также имеют значительный международный резонанс, прежде всего Времени. This newsmagazine appears each week in several international editions. Это общественно-политический журнал появляется каждую неделю в нескольких международных изданиях. There are some for various parts of the United States, for the Far East, for Australia, for Europe, and so on. Есть некоторые для различных частях Соединенных Штатах, на Дальнем Востоке, в Австралии, для Европы, и так далее. Time claims that although the advertising changes in each edition, the content remains the same internationally. Время утверждает, что, хотя реклама меняет в каждом выпуске, содержание остается то же самое на международном уровне. This is not quite true: in the US editions, for instance, there is no section called «European Notes.» Это не совсем верно: в изданиях США, например, нет раздел под названием «Европейские Примечания». In any case, no other single news publication is read so widely by so many people internationally as is Time. В любом случае, ни одна другая публикация одного новостей не читается так широко так много людей на международном уровне как это время.
There are two other reasons why Time has such international influence. Есть два другие причины, почему время такое международное влияние. First, several other newsmagazines were modeled on Time. Во-первых, ряд других политических журналов были смоделированы на время. Among these are the leading newsmagazines in France, Germany, and Italy. Среди них ведущие политических журналов во Франции, Германии и Италии. Secondly, Time also sells news, news features, interviews, photographs, graphics, and charts to other publications throughout the world. Во-вторых, время также продает новости, новостей, интервью, фотографии, графики и диаграммы на другие публикации по всему миру. Feature stories that first appear in Time are therefore echoed in many other publications in many other countries.The newsmagazines are all aimed at the average, educated reader. Тематические статьи, которые впервые появляются в Time поэтому повторил во многих других изданиях во многих других countries.The-политических журналов все, направленных на среднем, образованный читатель. There are also many periodicals which treat serious educational, political, and cultural topics at length. Есть также много изданий, лечения серьезных образовательных, политических и культурных тем в длину.

Самый известный из них включают Atlantic Monthly, Гарвардский Образовательное обзор, суббота обзор, Новая Республика, National Review, иностранных дел, Смитсоновский, и, конечно же, The New Yorker. Such widely read periodicals, along with the hundreds of professional journals, provide a broad and substantial forum for serious discussion. Такие читаемых периодических изданий, наряду с сотнями профессиональных журналов, представляют собой широкую и значительную форум для серьезного обсуждения. Again, a lot of what first appears in these publications is often reprint internationally or in book form. Опять же, многое из того, впервые появляется в этих публикациях часто перепечатать на международном уровне или в виде книги. Many of the long The New Yorker essays, for example, have later appeared in shortened form in publications such as England’s The Observer Magazine or Germany’s Die Zeit. Многие из длинных эссе Нью-Йорка, к примеру, позже появились в сокращенной форме в таких изданиях, как журнал наблюдателей Англии или Германии Die Zeit.
There is a strong market for such serious publications. Существует сильный рынок для таких серьезных изданий. National Geographic has an average circulation of over 10 million, Consumer Reports some 3 million, Smithsonian (published by the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC) over 2 million copies, Scientific American (US edition) over 700,000, and Saturday Review- and The New Yorker over half a million each.
