我来自爱尔兰。那是欧洲西部的一个小国家，和英国相邻。

 

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. 

爱尔兰的国旗有三个颜色：绿色、白色和桔色。你会看到国旗挂在政府大楼和市政厅这样重要的建筑上。

 

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. 

爱尔兰其中一个最重要的象征是三叶草。三叶草是一种有三片叶子的小型绿色植物，三叶草看起来和四叶草很像，但是它只有三片叶子，看起来就像三个连在一起的心型。

 

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. 

爱尔兰的乡村非常漂亮。尤其是西海岸有许多湖泊、山峦、海滩和悬崖。有些悬崖是欧洲最高的。

 

All around Ireland you can see lots of castles. We have a very long history in Ireland and there are many castles all over. Sometimes people still live in these castles. Sometimes, they are only for tourists to visit. 

你可以在爱尔兰各地看到许多城堡。爱尔兰历史悠久，全国各地有许多城堡。有时人们还会继续住在这些城堡里。有时城堡只供游客参观。
