BIG BENBIG BEN

There are many sights in London. One of them is the Houses of Parliament. It is a very large and beautiful building with two high towers at the corners. One of the towers is the Clock Tower. The English people built the tower with the clock in 1858. The clock has four faces and a very big loud bell. The bell weights 13 tons. The man in charge of the building was Sir Benjamin Hall. This man was very tall, and workers and his friends called him Big Ben too. That’s why the English people call the clock and the Clock Tower Big Ben. The people of London who live near the Houses of Parliament can hear the sound of the bell every hour. Other people hear it on the radio. On the New Year’s night people come to the Clock Tower to meet the New Year.
