實戰(zhàn)口語情景對話：Ireland 愛爾蘭

I come from Ireland. It's a small country in the west of Europe. It's just next to the United Kingdom.

The Irish flag has three colors: green, white and orange. You often see the Irish flag above important buildings like the government building, or the town hall.

One of the most important symbols of Ireland is the shamrock. The shamrock is a small green plant with three leaves, so the shamrock looks like a four leaf clover, but it only has three leaves, and they look like three hearts joined together.

愛爾蘭其中一個最重要的象征是三葉草。三葉草是一種有三片葉子的小型綠色植物，三葉草看起來和四葉草很像，但是它只有三片葉子，看起來就像三個連在一起的心型。

In Ireland, the countryside is very beautiful. We have lots of lakes, mountains, beaches, and cliffs along the west coast, especially. Some of these cliffs are among the highest in Europe.
