Good Future for UK in EU?

In my personal view, joining of the UK to the EU has many advantages in several aspects .One of the important fruits of it is the increase of immigration. The UK has had labor market shortages and after joining to EU Immigrants have filled in various jobs. Also, it has increased  opportunities for British to import lower cost skilled labor in areas where there are severe labor shortages.



 The other significant features of the European Union for UK is its single market. The single market, which is intended to ensure that a company in one member state can trade with a company in any other member state without the interference of national borders. Being part of the European single market has brought great benefits to the British economy and to anyone who works shops or trades in it.

Driving and Roads in Britain

     In Britain, people drive on the left hand side of the road that is differ from the other countries in the world which people drive on right hand side.People should pay about 95 pence per litre.In compare with the other countries is seems very expensive.Meanwhile all speed limits and distances on sign are given in miles or miles per hour.Speed limits are shown by round sign whit amount circled by a red band.Besides,when the speed limit finishes ,the angle crossing whit a black line appeared.Furthermore,the main road are illustrated by
 "M ROADS " ,"A ROADS","B ROADS".The meaning of "M ROADS " is freeway.These also are  known as fast road ."A ROADS" are the main road between towns and "B ROADS" are known the smallest of the three.



                                        M25 motorway                                          

 The speed limit in UK is the same as the national speed limit .In my personal view it is very important that international people know the roads names and signs and consider them.

Florence Nightingale


 Have you ever heared "Lady with the lamp"?this is about a famouse and honourable woman;Florance Nightingale.In my personal view she is respectfull because of many reasones.

She devoted her life to nursing and helping pepole.One day she took as a call from God to help people.Despite the opposition her family he announced her crucial decision to enter nursing.In my oponion her decision was very significant and valuable on the grounds that she insisted on her interest and continued it seriously.
Moreover she improved in her work and training.When Crimea war has started,she helped many wounded and sick people in Crimea ,and the soldiers though that she was very great lady.Besides she established training school for nurses.Moreover she wrote many momentous and worthwhile books that were hugely influential.

To put it in a nutshell,because of above mentioned reasones ,
Florence Nightingale is a distinguished  woman that every one respect her and she is a great symbole of a heroine.

My Little Experience About UK

When I arrived in Cardiff, I was so tired because I was at palne about 7 houres .The first thing that suprised me was the size of the room in my accommodition .When I opend the door I became shocked becuse it seemed very small at the first moment .I couldnt belive that I must live there for 10 month.I paid a lot of money before I came to Cardiff  and I expected the room should be larger than this.The secound thing that was very strange for me was about the tape.It was a big question for me why the warm and cold water are seprate?It seemed unusual.Besides ,I used public trasportation for traveling in Cardiff and Cardiff to Treforest ,I considered the cost of transportation is expensive considering their facilities.Inspite of the above mentioned disadvantage ,there are momentouse advantages.For instance ,the weather is so clean and nice ,the university is located in the heart of beautiful forest, all of our teachers are very nice,punctual,knowlagable,experienced ,...In my oponion, it can be a valuable and fruitful  experience for me living and studing in Cardiff.
