This is call Lise of a girl and she comes from Yorkshire. She needs to spent in next 4 weeks to speak, choice appropriate clothing and body language.

Sport in China & UK

Sports are flourishing in china now. More and more people are willing to take part in sports of different kinds, such as table-tennis, football, volleyball, and so on. Every year there are many matches played on the city, provincial or national level. Sports are no longer limited to a few professional players. Early in the morning people may be seen doing exercise. Martial arts (like Chinese boxing or swordplay) which formerly were cultivated for self-defense, now have become a form of physical exercise and are practiced in parks, streets, gardens, or on campuses. In addition young and old people are also often seen running in order to build up their bodies. China promotes sports to enhance the physical condition of its people; she is formulating policies to provide encouragement of this activity. She awards prizes to the excellent players for the best records both in china and the world. In the world the Chinese have become a strong people instead of “the weaklings of East Asia”.

Crime and Punishment

There has been a sharp increase in juvenile delinquency, which means great harm not only to the youngsters and the families concerned but also to the destiny and prospects of our nation. For this reason, it is topic of great importance as to how we can create a sound social environment for the young, thus preventing them from committing transgression and crimes. In china, the adult age is 18 years old. And in18 years ago are not death sentence. I think the death penalty exists as a punishment for murder or terrorism is the right. Because terrorism abused huge society problem in people's life, people must entrap every crisis in every day. But the death penalty can not solve all problems. So, there are many ways to solve this problem, the Government's responsibility is to invest a lot of manpower and resources lies in the education of offenders, or allow them to work is that this community do more to contribute to exile criminals, so that they understand the social life is really all Exists.

Media continued

In May10, there are DIANA INQUEST SAMPLES SWITCHED from Daily Express.

Let me note this report because it’s title on the first page and takes half the position. There were other reports in this forum, but their space was small. I have noticed this report on the other newspaper, but it was not so prominent here. I think a newspaper has its own unique reporting information; therefore, there were different people like it. In every day, if all the newspapers reported the same information, so they no competitive. In the page 5, it was very special space about this report, because there were comments about this story in the top.

An explosive new book claims that is Princess Diana's autopsy came from another woman. Wreck of the Mercedes in which Princess Diana was killed in August 1997. Morgan said he has uncovered a litany of conflicting data over Diana's death.

There were a lot of newspapers will be reporting such information in our country, but the difference was we did not find in the newspapers about their comments.

Welfare in China and UK

There are seven different types of UK's welfre. They are children and pregnant women welfare, disability or illness benefits, retirement benefits, widow welfare, unemployment benefits, low-income people welfare and social fund.

We can said every country has own offical retirement age. For example, in UK men official retirement age is 65, and women's age is 60. In China, at the moment men can claim their pension when they are from 60 to 65, while women can claim from 55 to 60.

In China, the government to give different subsidies of every family. Because sizes of each city and each person's income is not the same. So, the government gave subsidies are also different. The government will give the family housing subsidies, retirment pensions, and so on.
