M: Hi, Cindy! How was your holiday?
W: Wonderful! I went to London with my husband.
M: How do you like the city?
W: London is such a historic city! There are histories everywhere you look. There is Nelson's column, built as a monument to one of the Britain's great admirals and his important victory. He won the battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
M: I'm looking forward to seeing Westminster Abbey, where many historic figures are buried, like Isaac Newton, the great mathematician, and Winston Churchill, the great wartime leader.
W: Yes, it's great. And on the banks of the Thames, there's the statue of Boadicea. She fought the Romans when they invaded Britain.
M: Women have often played an important role in British history. Queen Elizabeth I built a navy strong enough to fight off the Spanish armada in 1588. More recently, Margaret Thatcher transformed British society in the 1980s.
W: She was a very controversial leader.
M: Yes. Have you been to the famous tower of London? There's a lot to see there.
W: You mean the Big Ben? No. There was not enough time left then. I had to catch the plane. You know, I'm looking forward to seeing the famous castle and prison. Many historic figures were imprisoned there in the past. I really want to see the crown jewels too.
M: It's a real pity. I've seen them before. They're quite incredible. But it doesn't matter. You can visit it next time. After all, you had a good time.
W: Yes. I'm looking forward to the next traveling.
