resit 2


Kate Middleton married with Prince Williams on Friday 29 April 2011 at Westminster Abbey (Anon, 2011). Millions people had watched this royal wedding through the television and internet. However, it is huge waste to the people who pay for the tax. For example, The Duchess of Cambridge’s wedding dress, designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen which is world famous luxury. Therefore, the royal wedding influences the view of monarchy. A number of public consider the monarchy.

The British people cannot afford the fairy tale affair, not at a time when Britain is facing  billions deficit. It’s such a slap in the face to the ordinary people who are being asked to make sacrifices while the royals party it up, as they’ve done throughout history and always at the expense of the poor and working-class.

Instead of being mesmerized by it all, people everywhere should be repulsed at the outrageously expensive affair, especially when so many people are suffering from homelessness, hunger and lack of jobs and healthcare, not only in Britain but throughout the world.

Overall speaking, the government of Britain should pay more attention to the public issues. Cut in spending of monarchy could be an effective method improving economy.

Resit 1



London will hold the Olympic Games from 27th of July to 12th of August 2012. To some people who are interested in sports, they have to wait for one year in order to watch the Olympic Games (None, 2011). However, a number of local people in the UK have no chance to go to the London watch the 2012 Olympics. Numerous reasons for that situation have been made. First and foremost, the reason of the high-price tickets could result in that the poor British cannot afford tickets to watch games.  Furthermore, there are millions sport fans in Britain. Most of them cannot have tickets to watch the game due to the capacity of Olympic Stadium is 80000 (Mcevoy, 2011). Besides, sport fans from the whole world will also join 2012 Olympic Games. The government of Britain would give the opportunity for the oversea sport fans to show the sporting attitude of Britain. Finally, the public can also watch the broadcast of the 2012 Olympic Games at home, which indirectly support the hosting of the Olympic Games. In brief, many British sports fans have been unable to get tickets. But the government would make many chances for them to enjoy the games as possible.

Newspapers

In glamorgan’s library there three interesting newspapers. They are The Times, Western Mail and Echo. The Times is most world famous newspapers.Western Mail and Echo is newspaper of Wales'. In general way, the coverpage usually use bright color and many big picture(White, 2011). As result of colorful coverpage, people have desire to buy that newspapers.


These three papers contain many different types of news, The times reported that the worldwide news. western mail and ECHO has also tended to write wales local events, in addition, the two newspapers have more football news. The middle of a few pages in the newspaper have a lot of fun word games or puzzles to bring joy to the reader. I suggest, IFP students should look at some western mail and ECHO to know what important things locally, or local entertainment news, since this will help us a better life here.

The Walfare system

Generally speaking, the retired age in China is 60 for men and 50-55 for women, (Wei, 2010) however, the retirement age is sixty in UK. Both  China and UK has the old age pension for  people who is too old to work. But,  pension in UK is much more rich and generous. The people who has pension  even can go abroad to travel. Satuation is quite different from China, the pesion can only provide the food to continue people's life.
In the second place, there are huge different between China and UK deal with people who is unemployed people. An job means everything to chinese that people who does not have job can not survive. As an result of too much population that the government of China can not afford the spending on unemployed people. Conversely, people in Great Britain can apply for income support and if they have no signficant savings, they will receive it.(Hand out, 2011)
Finally, the Red Cross Sciety of China is one of most important charity in my country. There are two way that RCSC collect money which s donations, government support.

There is big different between British television broadcasting and Chinese. Government of china control majority media. The media of china can not say any negative event or word to damnify the government.For example, if people point out there some problem in policy or say some bad word to goverment leader on TV, the part will deleted quite soon.In Britain, people can say any thing they want. The governmet emphasize feedom of speech.
Advertising in China always invite the super star to act,However,British advertisment focus on how to show the merit of product.For example,if an advertising recommend cusumer a new technology shaver, the chinese ad invite a hadsome film star hold the product,ad of britain will show how clean it shaved.
The most popular type of TV programme islove and marriage. A number of youth want find their true love and marry each other. Such as meet honest or let's date.
