My presentation is made up of 5 parts
In the first part I will give you some general information about her majesty the Queen
The second part will inform you about the Queen's Early Life
The third part is about marriage and family
Then I would like to go on with accession and coronation
And finally, in my last part I am going to inform you about the Majesty's Government
Her Majesty the Queen
The Queen is Head of State of the United Kingdom's. The elder daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, she was born in 1926 and became Queen at the age of 25. The Queen is married to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and has four children and eight grandchildren.
The Queen's Early Life
The Queen was born on 21 April 1926 in Mayfair, London. She was the first child of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth. It was not expected that she would become Queen. The Princess was christened in the private chapel at Buckingham Palace. In 1930, Princess Elizabeth gained a sister, with the birth of Princess Margaret Rose. The family of four was very close. Princess Elizabeth's quiet family life came to an end in 1936, when her grandfather, King George V, died. His eldest son came to the throne as King Edward VIII, but, before the end of the year, King Edward VIII had decided to give up the throne in order to marry the woman he loved. Upon his abdication, Princess Elizabeth's father acceded to the throne as King George VI. Princess Elizabeth was now first in line to the throne.
Marriage and family
Shortly after the Royal Family returned from South Africa in 1947, the Princess's engagement to Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten was announced. The couple, who had known each other for many years, were married in Westminster Abbey on 20 November 1947. His Royal Highness the Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, was the son of Prince Andrew of Greece. They have four children, eight grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Prince Charles, now The Prince of Wales, heir apparent to the throne, was born in 1948, and his sister, Princess Anne, now The Princess Royal, two years later. After Princess Elizabeth became Queen, their third child, Prince Andrew, arrived in 1960 and the fourth, Prince Edward, in 1964.
Accession and Coronation
On Wednesday, 6 February 1952, Princess Elizabeth received the news of her father's death and her own accession to the throne, while staying in a remote part of Kenya. The tour had to be abandoned, and the young Princess flew back to Britain as Queen. The Coronation took place in Westminster Abbey on 2 June 1953.
Majesty's Government
The Queen is Head of State in the United Kingdom. As a constitutional monarch, Her Majesty fulfils important ceremonial and formal roles with respect to Government. As Head of State the Queen has to remain neutral with respect to political matters, unable to vote or stand for election. But The Queen does have important ceremonial and formal roles in relation to the Government of the UK. The Queen also has a special relationship with the Prime Minister, retaining the right to appoint and also meeting with him or her on a regular basis. The rights of the wearer of the crown are the right to be consulted, the right to encourage and the right to warn. |

Hallo Nina,
das sieht im Großen und Ganzen schon ziemlich gut aus. Kleinigkeiten gibt es natürlich immer. Es soll ein Referat sein - und nicht alle werden überhaupt verstehen, was Du da sagst. Vielleicht ist es für den Zweck besser, den Text zu vereinfachen. Andererseits wirst Du Deinen Englischlehrer bzw. Deine Englischlehrerin mit dem großen Wortschatz, den du hier verwendest, wahrscheinlich beeindrucken.
Ich habe leider gerade kaum Zeit zur Korrektur, aber vielleicht findet sich ja noch jemand anders.
Einen Lesetipp hätte ich aber noch, der hier neulich in anderem Zusammenhang aufgetaucht ist: ![[]](/images/popup.gif) A Woman's Work is Never Done, ein Artikel aus der Time über die Queen. Ziemlich lang und stellenweise nicht einfach, aber recht amüsant und sehr informativ.
Vielleicht bis später,
reverend
