单选题
Which of the following statements about the Church of England is INCORRECT? A. It was established in 1534. B. It is governed by ministers and elders. C. It has two provinces: Canterbury and York. D. The archbishops and bishops of it are appointed by the Monarch on the advice of the Prime Minister.
【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】本题考查英国社会文化常识。the church of England(英国教会)始建于1534年,是英国国教教会,且与英国君主有独特的联系,因为君主作为“国教的捍卫者”必须是此教会的一员,他在登基时必须承诺维护国教;英国教会的主教和大主教是由君主依照首相的建议而任命的;它有两个主要区域:坎特伯雷和约克。苏格兰教的管理是长老制,也就是由教士和长老治理。因此只有选项[B]叙述的不是英国教会,为正确答案。
