In each magazine we will introduce new topics to add to those already covered in previous editions and so you will be able to build up a useful reference collection. English 4 U will be issued every month and will be delivered free to a wide range of outlets across the country. Please contact us with your comments and ideas. Our details are shown below.

The hands of the clock are 2.7 and 4.3 metres long and the clock tower rises to 98 metres. The bells rang out across London for the first time on 31st May 1859. The clock was designed by Edmund Beckett Denison.

The Sharjah Museums Department has restored some historical houses and established museums in the heritage area of Sharjah. These places are all well worth a visit for both children and adults. The restoration of Bait Al Naboodah and the surrounding area took place in the early 1990s. This house is located in the Heritage Area of Al Sheyoukh. Everything in Bait Al Naboodah offers a fascinating insight of a bygone era. The construction of this family home of Obaid Al Shamsi (Al Naboodah) began in 1845. It was built in the traditional Gulf style and took into consideration the climate, natural resources and social requirements of privacy and security. Many of the doors and pillars are made from teakwood, the flat roof is made from mangrove poles and palm matting, and the walls from stone and coral. The house has three parts – the main building and living areas, the adjacent majlis and the kitchen annex. Eleven rooms make up the ground floor, all around a large courtyard in which you will find a palm tree and an almond tree. There are a few more rooms on the upper floor. 38 38 Sharjah Museums Department P O Box 39939 Sharjah Tel 06 5566002 Fax 06 5566003 E-mail info@sharjahmuseums.ae www.sharjahmuseums.ae Bait Al Naboodah Opening Times Weekdays: 8 am – 8 pm Friday: 5 pm – 8pm Times vary during the month of Ramadan and Public Holidays.

For many of us, English is the main language of communication. Although a wide variety of magazines are available, we believe that a magazine just for learners of English will stimulate an interest in the language and help to develop the skills of UAE nationals and residents. In each magazine we will introduce new topics to add to those already covered in previous editions and so you will be able to build up a useful reference collection. English 4 U will be issued every month and will be delivered free to a wide range of outlets across the country. Please contact us with your comments and ideas. Our details are shown below. The magazine has three levels: easy medium hard We hope you like our magazine. Happy reading ! David Baldwin ً ‫ﻣﺮﺣﺒﺎ‬ Welcome 2 2 4 4 E En ng gl li is sh h U U

    In1844,theBritishParliamentdecidedthatthenewbuildingsfor the Houses ofParliament should include a tower and a clock. In the beginning, Big Ben referred to the hour bell of the Great Clock of Westminster but now it refers to the clock itself. The bell weighs more than 13 tons. The clock is famous for its accuracy. The hands of the clock are 2.7 and 4.3 metres long and the clock tower rises to 98 metres. The bells rang out across London for the first time on 31st May 1859. The clock was designed by Edmund Beckett Denison. There are numerous suggestions about how it was given its name but the most common theory is that it was named after Sir Ben Benjamin Hall, the commissioner of works.

    The Sharjah MuseumsDepartment has restored some historical houses and established museums in the heritage area of Sharjah. These places are all well worth a visit for both children and adults. The restoration of Bait Al Naboodah and the surrounding area took place in the early 1990s. This house is located in the Heritage Area of Al Sheyoukh. Everything in Bait Al Naboodah offers a fascinating insight of a bygone era. The construction of this family home of Obaid Al Shamsi (Al Naboodah) began in 1845. It was built in the traditional Gulf style and took into consideration the climate, natural resources and social requirements of privacy and security. Many of the doors and pillars are made from teakwood, the flat roof is made from mangrove poles and palm matting, and the walls from stone and coral. The house has three parts – the main building and living areas, the adjacent majlis and the kitchen annex. Eleven rooms make up the ground floor, all around a large courtyard in which you will find a palm tree and an almond tree. There are a few more rooms on the upper floor. 38 38 Sharjah Museums Department P O Box 39939 Sharjah Tel 06 5566002 Fax 06 5566003 E-mail info@sharjahmuseums.ae www.sharjahmuseums.ae Bait Al Naboodah Opening Times Weekdays: 8 am – 8 pm Friday: 5 pm – 8pm Times vary during the month of Ramadan and Public Holidays.
