文本：
Nearly 30 years of building works were reduced to rubble 1 in just a few months, an abrupt 2 end to such a celebrated 3 building. But George had grander ambitions in mind. He would reinvent Buckingham House as a palace that would outshine even Carlton House. And the man he chose for the job was architect John Nash. So began one of the most productive and scandalous building partnerships 4 in London's history.
George IV begged the Government for money to reinvent his childhood home. He managed to coax 5 £150,000 out of them for what he called repairs and improvements. But pretty soon, it was clear that George had no intention of sticking to the budget. He and his architect John Nash transformed what had been a quiet royal retreat into a grand palace. Today, that palace is hidden. From the front, what you see is a later addition in white Portland stone. But come behind the facade 6.

乔治四世伸手向政府要钱用于改造其孩提时的家，他以维修和改善的名义骗取了15万英镑。但不久，乔治不善预算，钱就花光殆尽。他和他的建筑师约翰·纳什，只好转向皇宫内部的改造。今天，这座宫殿被隐藏着。外观上，你看到的是后来用白色石灰石修整过的
