问题 Once the prison during the 16th and 17th, ______ is now one of the British most popular tourist attractions.

选项 A、The Tower of London
B、The Big Ben
C、The Stonehenge
D、Westminster Abbey

答案A

解析 本题考查英国历史知识。伦敦塔(The Tower of London)1988年被列为世界文化遗产,是不列颠群岛最受欢迎的历史景点。伦敦塔曾用作堡垒、军械库、避难所和监狱,特别用来关押上层阶级的囚犯。最后的这一用途产生一条短语“sent to the Tower”,意思是“入狱”;大本钟(The Big Ben)是英国国会会议厅附属的钟楼,为伦敦的传统地标;巨石阵(The Stonehenge)是著名的史前时代文化神庙遗址,位于英格兰威尔特郡;西敏寺(Westminster Abbey)是伦敦的国家级圣公会教堂,可以说是英国地位最高的教堂。
