菁優(yōu)網(wǎng)Today we're going to look at some British festivals that you might not know.
    At the end of January in the Shetland Islands，there's a fire festival，Up Helly Aa.It seems like an ancient festival，but it has actually been going for about 130 years.
    People carry fire-lit torches（火把） and a Viking boat through the streets，and then set fire to the boat.There's lots of dancing，it's great fun.
    Shrove Tuesday，known in some countries as Pancake Tuesday or Pancake Day，is a day in February or March，which is celebrated in some countries by eating pancakes.In others，especially those where it is called Mardi Gras，this is a carnival.
    On Pancake Day，pancake races are held in villages and towns across the United Kingdom.
    The tradition started in 1445 when a housewife was so busy making pancakes that she forgot the time until she heard the church bells ringing for the service.She raced out of the house to the church while still carrying her frying pan and pancake，shaking it to prevent it from burning.The pancake race remains a common tradition in the UK，especially in England，even today.
    Burning the Clocks is a festival celebrated in Brighton.This custom started over twenty years ago and is very popular.People make clock lanterns，and then walk through the town to the beach where something is set on fire and there's a big fireworks show.
