It used to be raised about 50 times a day, but now it is raised only 4 to 5 times a week. The Tower Bridge stands just on the south side of the Tower of London. People often think they are of the same age. But in fact, the Tower of London was built a thousand years ago, while the Tower Bridge only has a history of over one hundred years.

Do you know the film Dinosaur Island? I went with my younger brother Dave to see it last Friday. I had a great time, but he didn’t. He closed his eyes in many parts because the dinosaurs (恐龙) looked so real and he didn’t laugh once. I thought the story was really exciting. I’d like to buy the DVD and watch it at home again. The beginning and the ending were excellent!
