 “I remember an English teacher —— he always had colored socks: red, green, even orange.”

“I had one history teacher who always wore clothes of the same color. During the three years, I never saw him change.”

Big Ben is the world’s most popular clock. Millions of tourists visit the clock tower each year. Every hour on the hour, the famous bells ring. But starting in 2017, it will be under major repairs, and for some of that time, its bells won’t ring. Work like this hasn’t been done on it in more than 30 years.

“In order to keep the clock ticking(发出滴答声), we must take time to examine and repair it,” says Steve Jaggs, who oversees Big Ben. “This project will enable us to give one of Britain’s most famous landmarks the care it badly needs.”

    Big Ben actually is the name of the main bell inside the clock. But the entire clock tower has come to be known by that name. People have been setting their watches to Big Ben since the bell was built in 1859. It was an addition to the Palace of Westminster, which was rebuilt after a big fire in 1834. The last major repair of the tower took place from 1983 to 1985.

    Big Ben is again showing its age. Many of the parts in the clock need repairs. The tower itself has problems, too. The repairs will also include updating(更新) the tower so that it meets current(当前的) fire-safety requirement and installing(安装) an elevator. In total, the project will cost about $42 million.
