請依下文回答第 47 題至第 50 題： Britain’s second-largest city, Birmingham, has a new skyline－only it belongs to its Alabama namesake. Birmingham City Council distributed 720,000 leaflets that praised residents for exceeding recycling targets, carrying a message that read: “Thank You Birmingham.” The message appeared stamped across a photograph of the city’s skyline. But the photo was not of Birmingham, England, but of Birmingham, Alabama. It’s the second time British officials have mistakenly used images of Birmingham, Alabama. Three lawmakers who represent Birmingham at the European Parliament accidentally used a picture of the U.S. city on their Internet site in January. “I would have thought the council would take more care,” said Birmingham resident Jon Cooper. “I can’t believe no one at the town hall noticed.” Britain’s Birmingham is famed for its modernist Bullring shopping mall, with its distinctive metallic curved exterior, and an extensive network of canals, churches, and historical buildings. The Alabama city’s skyline includes the Wachovia Tower, University of Alabama buildings, and skyscrapers. Officials said the wrong image was selected from an Internet photo archive. “It’s human error,” said Birmingham City Council spokesman, Kris Kowalewski. “We accept that the wrong photo was used, but the text and detail contained in the leaflet is wholly correct.” In Alabama, the Birmingham Regional Chamber of Commerce didn’t immediately respond to calls for comment.

英國第二大城市伯明翰擁有新的天際線 - 只有它屬於阿拉巴馬州的同名城市。伯明翰市議會分發了72萬份宣傳居民超出回收目標的傳單，並傳遞了一條信息：“謝謝你伯明翰。”這條消息在城市天際線的照片上出現。但這張照片不是來自英格蘭的伯明翰，而是阿拉巴馬州的伯明翰。這是英國官員第二次錯誤地使用了阿拉巴馬州伯明翰的圖像。三名在歐洲議會代表伯明翰的議員在一月份的互聯網站上意外地使用了美國城市的照片。 “我原以為安理會會更加小心，”伯明翰居民喬恩庫珀說。 “我無法相信市政廳裡沒人注意到。”英國伯明翰以其現代主義鬥牛場購物中心而聞名，其獨特的金屬彎曲外觀以及廣泛的運河，教堂和歷史建築網絡。


阿拉巴馬州的城市天際線包括瓦喬...
