问题   As you linger on the mountain pass to admire the rugged reflection of Beinn an Lochaint in the waters of Loch Resti, spare a thought for the weary sheep drovers who used to pause here for breath after the long steep climb from Loch Fyne. "Rest and Be Thankful2" is the name of this spot, a title coined by the soldiers who built the first road here 250 years ago. Since then its wild beauty has thrilled generations of crofters and passing travelers. And now you.
  Of course your journey through Scotland may not take you this way, but wherever you go you’re in for a treat. You might linger in the Borders to explore the dignified ruins of once-powerful abbeys or fish for plump salmon in the Tweed. Or follow in the footsteps of Rob Roy and Walter Scott through the Trossachs to soak "the scenery of a fairy dream", as Scott described it. Perhaps you’ll potter around colourful fishing villages in the Kingdom of Fife and tee off on the legendary Old Course in St Andrews. Or venture into Speyside to tickle your tastebuds on the malt whisky trail.
  If it’s drama you’re after, you’ll head for the Highlands, a vast swathe of untamed wilderness fringed by mile upon mile of fretted coastline dotted with islands. Land and sea collide to create spectacular perspectives, which change with the seasons and within the space of a day.
选项
答案 这个山口就叫“歇恩山口”(“歇恩”意为歇下来感恩)，此名是250年前在此修筑第一条道路的士兵们给起的。从那以后，这里的自然美景便令一代代农人和游客陶醉，而今又令你怦然心动。 当然，你的苏格兰之旅未必会取行此道，但不管你去何方，你肯定都会乐在其中。你也许会漫游在苏格兰和英格兰交界地区，探看那些曾经声威赫赫、如今仍不失威严的教堂遗址，或是在特威德河畔钓取肥美的鲑鱼，或是沿罗布?罗伊和司各特当年的足迹，穿越特洛萨克斯河谷，去领略司各特笔下那“梦中的仙境”。你也许会徜徉于法夫郡那些多姿多彩的渔村，在富有传奇色彩的圣安德鲁斯老球场挥上几杆，或是冒险北上去斯佩河酒厂，让扑面而来的威士忌酒香撩拨您的味蕾。 如果你探寻的是富有戏剧性的景象，那就去西北高地吧。那是一片广袤而粗犷的原野，四周镶嵌着参差的海岸线，点缀着大大小小的岛屿。陆地与大海犬牙交错，形成一道道壮丽的景象，这些景象会随着季节的交替和时辰的更迭而千变万化。
