问题 Which king in British history defeated the Danes and forced them to accept Peace of Edington, thus considered as the first national hero?

选项 A、Julius Caesar.
B、Edward.
C、Alfred.
D、Harold Ⅱ.

答案C

解析 本题考查英国历史知识。丹麦人于8世纪末入侵不列颠,最初他们只是袭击沿岸,后来大举进犯诺森布里亚,公元870年丹麦人进攻威赛克斯,威塞克斯的国王阿尔佛雷德(Alfred the Great,849—899)有效地抵抗了丹麦人的进犯并迫使丹麦人签订Peace of Edington条约。公元886年Alfred进占伦敦,不接受丹麦统治的所有英格兰人拥戴他为国王。Alfred是当时最伟大的历史人物和英雄。[C]为答案。[A]选项的凯撒入侵是和凯尔特人对抗,不是丹麦人,[D]中提到的哈罗德二世是个强有力的统治者,是英格兰的诺曼征服时期的最后一个Anglo—Saxon国王,[B]提到的爱德华是Alfred的后代。
