Pyramid—Egypt
Statue of Liberty—America

1. Work in groups of four and discuss the four pictures on page 1.
Picture 1
Who are the people in the picture? (They are Mounties, or the Royal Canadian Mounted police. They are also known as the RCMP.)
What do you know about them? (The RCMP was originally called North-West Mounted Police, which was formed in 1873. In 1920, it was renamed the Royal Canadian Mounted as a means of transport by the police in Canada. Now, various modern facilities are used instead. The official motto of the force is ‘Uphold the right’.)
Why do you think the Mounties represent Canada? (The Mountie is one of the most recognizable Canadian symbols as it was always featured in Hollywood movies, especially between the 1920s and the 1940s.)
What other things can you think of to represent Canada? (Maple trees, Niagara Falls, the CN Tower, etc.)
Picture 2
What is the man in the picture? (The man is a beefeater, or the Yeomen Warder of Her Majesty’s Royal Palace and Fortress the Tower of London.)
What do beefeaters do? (In the past, the beefeaters looked after the prisoners in the London Tower and guarded the British crown jewels. Now, they no longer safeguard the Queen’s jewels. Instead, they are ceremonial guardians who also act as tour guides. To most of the tourists, they are tourist attractions in their own right.)
What do you know about beefeaters? (It is said that the word ‘beefeater’ came from French ‘buffetier’, which refers to the guard protecting the king’s food in the place of French kings.)
Why do you think a beefeater represents the UK? (Beefeaters have a long history. In 1485, King Henry VII set up the first beefeaters as his bodyguards. Beefeaters are also famous for their uniforms. One is the red and gold ceremonial uniform, which dates back to 1552 and can still be seen on important occasions. The other one is the blue dress uniform, which is more commonly worn. This uniform dates back to 1858.)
What other things can you think of to represent the UK? (Big Ben, Stonehenge, Sherlock Holmes, etc.)
