In My Country

I met a pretty English girl. Lizzie (small for Elizabeth). She said she had seen me in the college bar. I did not want to tell she is mistaken. I do not go to the bar. It is not like home. People do not say hello and offer drinks. They look at me and talk in each others ears. But all that is finished. I will tell from the beginning. I was in the café drinking hot chocolate. A treat (new word) for getting an A in my essay on farming. Mad cow is not funny. The teacher liked that, she said I had a good

prone to addiction. (We can notice that in France, this is not the same; French people take one coffee in the morning, one at twelve o’clock, and sometimes one in the evening, after a great meal. So the addiction level isn’t the same, and this first reason to buy an “expensive” coffee can not work in France) The second reason is emotional: People buy a good coffee to reward themselves after a hard week for example; this is a kind of reward. “We’re living in a world where we’re desperate for belonging

should ban people from smoking in public places? I can’t say my opinion with “Yes, I think so” or “No, I don’t think so” because I agree with both and I could explain them below. On one hand, I think that they should ban people from smoking in public places because the smokers are more than 60% from the population.

work is related to independence. It permits to acquire knowledge and to improve one’s status in society. But when we work and advance in society, we are often alone and without the help of other people, we can only rely on the encouragement of our family or good friends. For example, some people leave the country where they were born to work in another country, some of them begin with odd-jobs to finish in the best jobs, and their families encourage them. A lot of French people go to the USA to try

trade ? To what extent is it compatible with sustainable development ? We’ll take the example of China. The development of the car industry affect other business as well, in China and beyond the country. The car sales keeps growing fast so the government made built a lot of express-ways, more than 30,000 miles, like in the U.S fifty years ago with its Interstate Highway System.

relevant principles of European law. In this context, European law means the EC Treaty, EC Directives, EC Recommendations and the case-law of the European Court of Justice (ECJ). The impact of the European Convention on Human Rights is slightly different and is considered in Human Rights Act and Convention law. The crucial general principle is that a "domestic" (i.e. UK) tribunal or court must, where possible, interpret domestic law in accordance with European law. In cases based on Article 141 of the
