📌 先看这里：这一课讲什么
- 英国小镇 Chester 有一整圈还能走上去的罗马古城墙，站上去能看到全镇。
- 除了城墙，还有两层楼的老商铺 The Rows、著名的 Eastgate 大钟、大教堂和一条能坐船游览的河。
- 句型比人物故事类文章稍长，出现了不少描述景点的形容词（ancient、famous、unique），适合 A2 程度练习。
- 读完能看懂一篇简单的城镇旅游介绍，抓住「这个地方有什么、为什么值得去」。
重点内容
原文 / 段落
The Town of Chester
Chester is an ancient town in the North West of England. It is a very famous place because it has a complete Roman wall. You can walk on the wall and see the whole town centre from up there. The town has many special black and white buildings and unique two-level shops called 'The Rows'.
Above the main gate, there is a beautiful and famous clock, the Eastgate Clock. There is also a very big cathedral. A river, called the River Dee, runs through the town, and you can see small boats on the water or take a boat trip. Chester is a wonderful place for a day out with your family.

理解要点
- 这是典型的「城镇介绍」文体，结构是「地理位置 → 标志性景点 → 逐一展开 → 总结推荐」，读游记/旅游介绍类文章可以套这个顺序找重点。
- 专有名词（Eastgate Clock、The Rows、River Dee）不用逐个记细节，只要知道它们分别对应「钟/商铺/河」就能跟上文章。
- 最后一句 "wonderful place for a day out" 是全文的总结句，游记类文章常常把态度放在结尾。
