Practice Regularly: Listen to English audio materials such as podcasts, news broadcasts, and academic lectures regularly to improve your listening skills.2. Focus on Understanding Main Ideas: Pay attention to the main ideas and key details in spoken passages rather than getting caught up in every single word.3. Note Taking: Develop the habit of taking notes while listening to improve your retention of key information.4.

Familiarize Yourself with Different Accents: Listen to a variety of English accents to improve your ability to understand different speakers.By following these tips and practicing consistently, you can improve your listening skills and perform well on the English CET-6 listening test.

In the grammar class, welearn about sentence structure, verb tenses, and otherimportant rules. In the reading class, we read interesting books and discuss them with our classmates.

英语听力万花筒21 A Nice Cup of TeaThat was Miss Binnie Hale, singing a song called ‘A Nice Cup of Tea’, which she recorded 70 years ago, in 1941.We British love tea. We drink more tea per head of population than any other country in the world, except for Ireland. If you go to the Tea Council website, you will see a counter at the top of the page which shows how many cups of tea we have drunk so far today. By the end of the day, the counter will reach 165 million – that is three cups of tea per person per day. Coffee has become more popular in Britain in recent years, but even today we drink more than twice as much tea as coffee.However, tea drinking is not an old tradition in Britain. We mad e our first cup of tea sometime in the mid dle of the 17th century. We found that we liked it, that it refreshed us and made us strong and happy, and we have continued drinking tea ever since. In the 19th century, tea became popular among working-class people, and it has remained the favourite drink of ordinary British people ever since. And it iswell-known that the Queen likes a nice cup of tea, as well.Tea drinking has a much longer history in China, where people have drunk tea for thousands of years. But British tea is not pale and d elicate like tea in China. It has a rich brown colour and a strong taste. Nearly everyone in Britain puts milk in their tea,and about a third of people add sugar to make the tea sweet. (Yukk! I cannot stand tea with sugar!) It is well known that no-one outside Britain knows how to make tea properly. When we British go on holiday in, for example, France or Spain, and we ask for a cup of tea in a hotel or cafe, the waiter brings us a cup of lukewarm water and a tea bag on the end of a piece of string. This is wrong, completely wrong, and in the interests of international harmony and und erstanding I shall now explain how to make a nice cup of tea, British styl e.First, you put some water in a kettle and put it on the stove to boil. When it is nearly boiling, you pour a small amount of the hot water into a tea-pot, and swill it round, and pour it out again. This warms the tea pot. Then you put tea or tea bags into the tea pot. How much tea? Well, my mother used to say that you should put in one teabag for each person, plus one for the pot. So, if you are making tea for two people, you should put three teabags into the pot. Then you pour boiling water onto the tea, and let the tea stand for about three minutes. If you have milk in your tea, put the milk in the cup first and pour the tea onto the milk, not the other way round. After you have poured the tea, and offered sugar to those strange peopl e who like sweet tea, you should pour some more boiling water into the tea pot. Why? Because the one thing which is nicer than a nice cup of tea is another nice cup of tea.We use the word “nice” all the time in spoken English. “It’s nice weather today. Did you have a nice time on holiday? It was so nice of you to come and visit us. Did youmeet Jane’s mother? She is such a nice person. Please sit down. I’ll make us a nice cup of tea.”In fact, “nice” is probably the most overused word in the English language. We use it so much that it has become almost meaningless. It is a good idea to find other words to use instead of “nice”, if you can.Did you notice something else about the song at the beginning of the podcast? I am talking about the names of different meals. “At half past eleven, my idea of heaven is a nice cup of tea,” sings Binnie. We have a special word in English for a snack in the middle of the morning, which you will hear sometimes, though it is now a bitold-fashioned –‘el evenses’, because of course we have our snack at about eleveno’clock.After elevenses, Binnie has her next cup of tea with her dinner. Until perhaps 30 years ago, most working people in Britain had their main meal in the middle of the day. They called it “dinner”, and many older people still do. Later in the day, people had a light meal at five or six o’clock and they called it “tea”. And, like Binnie, they had a cup of tea with their tea!Today, most people have a light meal in the middle of the day – perhaps a sandwich and an apple, which they eat at their desk in the office. We call this meal “lunch”. Peopl e eattheir main meal of the day in the evening, when they get home from work, and they call this meal “supper”. “Dinner” nowadays means a formal evening meal for a special occasion, where we dress up in smart clothes, and have nice food and wine and candles!So, a lot has changed since Binnie Hale recorded her song seventy years ago. But a nice cup of tea is still a nice cup of tea! I am going to make one now.。

I'm standing in front of the Northeastern Women's Correctional Facility. This isa high-security prison that houses 1500 women convicted of kidnapping,robbery, and murder. I must say that it is an extremely uninviting place. WhenI was given this assignment, I was somewhat apprehensive, and I can honestlysay that I am still quite frightened as I approach the main gate. My knees are a little wobbly, and my stomach is full of butterflies.Bell SoundI am now walking down Cell Block A. Each cell is approximately ten feet byeight and contains four small beds with thin blankets, no pillows or sheets, a metal sink, and an open toilet. Each tiny cell is the home for four women. The walls have numerous cracks and layers of paint chipping, and look as though they have not been painted in decades. There seems to be little fresh air or sunlight. The women all look sad and bored. Walking down the block, the strong smell of disinfectant is almost overpowering. This is definitely not the kind of place someone would want to be sent to.Bell SoundNow I am in the prison cafeteria. While I have been instructed not to speak with any of the prisoners, I am allowed to observe them while they are eating.The cafeteria has ten long tables with twenty women seated around each one on low uncomfortable-looking wooden benches. The menu for lunch today includes the following: a scoop of gray, lumpy mashed potatoes, a small piece of overcooked chicken, and a hunk of stale-looking bread. Fresh fruit andvegetables are nowhere to be seen. Needless to say, there is no salt, pepper, or other condiments available to the women, and they are not permitted to use knives or forks. Water is the only beverage available. It is safe to say that the focal being served is not healthy, and I wonder how these women are able to maintain their strength and health.Vicky: The Multiple Organic Diner? Emily, do you really want to eat in this hole in the wall?- Larry: Now, Vicky, Emily is trying to help us get back into shape. Besides, this place doesn't look so bad.

This is a health food restaurant. Besides, I thought you said you were going to kick the habit.Vicky: Well, Emily, I've tried. But, every time I stop smoking, I gain ten pounds. I don't think I'll ever be able to give up smoking.Emily: But you'll feel so much better when you do! I've been eating well and exercising every day. I run two miles every other day and playtennis every Sunday. I feel wonderful and everybody tells me Ia look great.Larry: Yeah, Vicky, I think Emily is right. By the way, where's the waiter?I'd like to order a drink before we eat.Emily: Larry, it's only three o'clock in the afternoon. Besides, health food restaurants don't serve alcohol.Vicky: Wait a minute, Larry. I thought we agreed that you'd stop drinking if I quit smoking.Emily: I think you should both quit. Doesn't this restaurant make you want to start living a healthy life? Why, just look at this menu.Everything they serve here is natural and nutritious.Larry: Never mind nutritious. What are the burgers like? I'm starving! Emily: Oh, Larry. You must know that hamburgers have a lot of fat and are high in calories.Vicky: And the doctor told you that you have to lower your cholesterol and lose at least 25 pounds. Smoking isn't the only way to have aheart attack early in life, you know. I'm your wife and I'm tooyoung to dress all in black!Larry: Don't worry, dear, I'm not going to die any time soon. Besides, I'm going to start my new diet on Monday.Emily: That's great, Larry, but I think the only real way to lose weight is to eat less and exercise more.Vicky: I agree with Emily. All you have to do is stop eating desserts and fried foods and no more alcohol.Larry: You know, maybe you're right. Emily can help me plan a diet. Emily: And don't forget the exercise. Why don't you two come running with me. I'd love to have the company and we could play tennistogether, too.Vicky: No, running hurts my knees. I think swimming would be the best exercise for me.Larry: Well, I don't like swimming or running. But, I would like to get back into playing handball. I was a really good player when I wasyounger.Emily: Well, the important thing is that you two make some serious changes in your lifestyle. I'm really glad you're doing this. Now,let's celebrate your decision by ordering a nice tall glass of carrot-onion juice.Vicky andLarry: Carrot-onion juice? !?Emily: Of course! It's chock full of vim and vitality! It's rich in vitamins and minerals. There's vitamin C, B, and of course A for the eyes. Larry: Wait a minute. Our diet doesn't start until Monday, If we're going to do any celebrating, I say we should go over to the Burger Palaceand have a real celebration.1.cottage cheese, sliced tomato, six spears of asparagus, and a cup offresh pineapple. black with no sugar2. salmon and a baked potato3. turkeysandwich on whole wheat, mayonnaise, a glass of iced tea with two sugars,4. some oatmeal and a banana, have a slice of apple pie for dessert,5. two cookies and a glass of milkGary: Well, here we are in L.A. Where shall we go first? Let's look at the . map.Don: We've never been to the Grand Canyon in Arizona...Gary: Okay. Let's go there.Don: I hear it's the most beautiful place on earth. It's over 300 miles long, and the Colorado River goes right through it.Gary: I wonder if we can go down into the canyon.Don: Sure. They have all sorts of trips and tours. We can even take a small plane ride into the canyon.Gary: That sounds great.Don: All right then, the first stop is the Grand Canyon. Let's be sure to call and make reservations at the campground. I'm sure the ArizonaTourist Service will help us. How long should we stay?Garya We want to do some hiking in the canyon and boating on the Colorado River. How does three days sound?Don: That sounds about right. Where do we go from there?Gary: How about heading north? It starts to boil in the southwest in the summer.Don: Then let's head up to Wyoming and camp a few days in the Yellowstone National Park.Gary: Great. We can crash' for one night in Salt Lake City, Utah, on the way.Don: Salt Lake City, Utah?Gary: Yeah, I heard it's an interesting city. And it's on the way to Yellowstone.Don: Okay. So, we'll go north through Salt Lake City up to Yellowstone.I've always dreamed of camping under the stars in Wyoming. And,of course, seeing Old Faithful in Yellowstone.Gary: Old Faithful? Is that the place where hot water shoots into the air every hour or so?@Don: Uh-huh, Old Faithful geyser. It's supposed to be really exciting to watch.Gary: What else is there to do?Don: We can go horseback riding, hiking, and fishing on Lake Yellowstone. Also, if we go all the way out to some of the remoteparts of the park, we can look for bears and other wild animals.Gary: Ooh, that sounds a little scary.Don: Yeah, but exciting. Let's plan to stay three days. Hey, it's not that far east from Yellowstone to Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota.Gary: Is that the place where that artist carved the whole side of themountain and made it into the shape of the heads of fourpresidents?Gary: Are you sure that's in South Dakota? I thought Mt. Rushmore is in North Dakota.Don: No, it's in South Dakota.Gary: Can we camp near there, or do we have to spring for a hotel?Don: No, we won't have to spend money on hotels until we hit a big city.I'm sure we can camp somewhere'~hearby.Gary: Should we plan to stay one night?Don: That sounds about right.Gary: Where to next?Don: Let's go to Minnesota. Uncle Leo and Aunt Dora now live in Minneapolis. They have a big house. I'm sure they'd put usup. Minnesota is one of the most beautiful states in the country. Ithas thousands of lakes, plus the Mississippi River.Gary: Yeah, and it has great theater and dance, and the Minnesota Orchestra is one of the best in the entire country.Don: Maybe we should stay four days to make sure we see everything. Gary: Good idea. And from Minnesota, we can go down through Wisconsin into Illinois to Chicago. It'sounds like a really great city;it's right on Lake Michigan.Don: Chicago is known for its music; especially jazz. I want to go to ajazz club every night.Gary: I really want to walk around Chicago and look at the architecture.My engineering teacher told me the buildings in the city areincredibly beautiful to look at. Why don't we make hotelreservations for three nights.Don: That sounds about right. So, what's our itinerary?Gary: Let's see. From L.A. we go to Arizona; then Utah, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, and finally, Chicago, Illinois.Don: Do you think we can do all of this in two and a half weeks? We'vegot to get back in time for registration.Gary: No problem. The way you burn rubber on the highway, we'll getfrom Chicago to L.A. in half a day!Don: Ha, ha, ha! I think we'll need to count on at least four days for the return trip.Gary: This sounds like the perfect vacation.Don: Yeah, now all we have to do is figure out how to pay for it!Reiko: Excuse me. I need to interview someone for my Communications Skills class. Could I ask you questions? It will only be a fewminutes.Reiko: do you have a lot of midterm tests that you are studying for?Kitty: I sure do. I have two tests next Tuesday that I haven't had time tobegin studying for.Kitty: Don't worry. I can talk to you for a few minutes. Please, ask me your questions.Reiko: Thank you. I will try to hurry. Please tell me first, are you a full- time or part-time student?Kitty: I'm just taking classes part time.Reiko: You are part-time. So, you are working now?Kitty: No, I'm a student. A part-time student.Reiko: Yes. Sorry. I mean do you have a job?Kitty: I'm a receptionist at a downtown law firm.Reiko: What is your major? Are you studying law?Kitty: Oh no. I don't want to be a lawyer. I'm working on a certificate in retail floristry.Reiko: Retail floristry?Kitty: No, it's pronounced retail floristry.Reiko: And, you are getting a certificate, not a degree. How long does it take to get this certificate?Kitty: The program takes about a year for most people, but at the rate I'm going, it will probably take me three.Reiko: What attracted you to this field?Kitty: Well, I've always really enjoyed working with flowers and having gardens, so I started taking some courses because someday I'd liketo open my own flower shop. UFS has a really good reputation forits retail floristry department. That's why I decided to start takingclasses here. I'm sorry; was I speaking too quickly? Did my answermake sense?Kitty: No. I've just always had a green thumb and loved working with plants and flowers.Reiko: And, could you tell me what kinds of jobs are possible for someone with a major in retail floristry?Kitty: Well, in the beginning, you could work as a salesperson in aflower shop or a designer depending on your skill level.Reiko: I'm sorry; could you explain what you mean by designer?Kitty: That's someone who designs and arranges flowers. Flower arranging is practically an art form, especially in some Asiancountries like Japan. Do you know what I mean?Reiko: I think you are talking abc~t Ikebana.Reiko: Ikebana.Kitty: Yes. You might also be able to get a job in a nursery, where you'd grow large numbers of plants from seedlings, maybe develop newand stronger species, and, of course, help gardeners with theireveryday needs and problems.Reiko: That sounds very interesting. Do you like the program in retail floristry here at UFS?Kitty: . I'm just taking two classes this semester, and I'macing both of them. oReiko: You are lucky. My classes are difficult.Kitty: Well, it's easier for me. You see, I already have a degree, so I'm used to the amount of work. It's not like I'm starting college forthe first time.Reiko: I understand. Please tell me, what do you think are some of the most helpful courses in your program?Kitty: Definitely the design classes because that's really what this major is all about. Also, the identification courses, where you can learn thenames of the plants and flowers. That is really crucial if you aregoing to work in a shop or work with flowers.Reiko: Yes, it would be. For my next question, please tell me what kind of related subjects would help somebody studying retail floristry?@Kitty: There are other courses in the horticulture department which would be beneficial, such as landscape design or nurseryoperation. Also, maybe courses in art, art history, or evenarchitectural design would help. If you're trying to create anartistic floral arrangement to go in a particular room or with aparticular painting, it would probably be useful to have someknowledge of art and architecture.Reiko: That is very interesting. Now, what is the best part of the UFS program in retail floristry?Kitty: I think the practical experience you get working with the flowersis the best part of the program. Part of the time is lecture, but youalso spend three hours designing arrangements and critiquingthem with your classmates. It's really important to have time towork with the flowers and then critique your arrangement and get feedback from the instructor and from everybody else in the class.The practical experience is really wonderful.Reiko: And, what about the worst part? What would you say is the worst part of the program?Kitty: I guess I'd have to say it's the memorization. A lot of the work involved with plant and flower identification is just strict memorization. You have to constantly practice the botanicalnames, saying them and learning what they mean so that you'llknow them by the end of the course. There are really so manydifficult Latin names. It's not something you can just study rightbefore a test.Reiko: Yes, but Latin is so difficult! I have one more question: Do you think your major is one that a foreign student would be able tohandle?Kitty: Yes, I think so. I do know, however, that some of the foreignstudents in my classes have been having trouble following theinstructor because of the language difficulties. But, if they gotsome help from English-speaking classmates, or, perhaps if theinstructor had some assistants available to help them, I think theycould do it. I'm not saying they would breeze through the class,but, with hard work and help, I'm sure they'd be successful., Reporter: And now we'll switch to highlights of last night's debate between the city's two candidates for mayor, Bella Porterand Dan Shmankie. The debate lasted more than an hourand was at times rather loud and contentious. The crowdinterrupted the speakers several times showing their strong disagreement.Here's what the candidates had to say on some of the issues.The first point that was hotly debated was in response to aquestion regarding the current homelessness problem in ourcity. Bella Porter, who has been active in city politics forover a decade and is currently serving as president of thecity council, answered the question first.B. Porter: I feel that Mr. Shmankie's solution to the homeless problem is to sweep it under the rug. Mr. Shmankie believes thatputting the homeless in jail will solve the problem. If wedon't see homeless people sleeping on our streets, theproblem doesn't exist, right? Wrong!Mr. Shmankie appears to be more concerned with thecomfort of tourists and visitors to our city than withactually helping some of our poorest and neediest citizens.A night in jail will not help a homeless person get his or herlife back together. We need to provide real job training forthese people in addition to affordable housing and medicalservices.Reporter: Dan Shmankie, a local businessman for over twenty years, then gave his response to the homeless question.D. Shmankie: As usual, Councilwoman Porter's solution to any problem is to throw money at it. The people we see on the streets arefor the most part lazy drunks or drug addicts who don'twant to get a job and contribute to society. We hear storiesevery day from good hard-working citizens who areconstantly harassed by panhandlers who come up to themand demand spare change. People have been attacked in@front of stores and waiting in their cars at stop lights. Storeowners are losing business because dirty, scary-lookingpeople are sitting with their shopping carts and sleepingbags in front of their stores. We need to feel safe on ourstreets again. These people don't need programs. They needa kick in the pants!Reporter: The two candidates also had very different opinions concerning education:Shmankie: Once again Ms. Porter seems to believe that money will fix all problems. Our schools do not need more money. Theyneed teachers who can get the job done. In the last fiveyears we have seen student test scores plummet and I blamethe teachers.Now hear me out. Some of my best friends are teachers. Icertainly know of many hard-working and dedicatedteachers who deserve our respect. But we need to thinkabout education more like a business. If you are thepresident of a company that builds cars and half of thesecars have serious problems, would you give your workershigher salaries and bettJ'benefits? Of course not. What weneed to do is to make sure that our teachers receive raises ifand only if their students get higher test scores. And forthose teachers who fail to get results, we need to replacethem with teachers who can get the job done.Porter:Here's a news flash for you Mr. Shmankie. Education is not a business. We are not cranking out cars on an assembly line;five per hour, one blue, one re& one green--each oneexactly the same as the last. Education is a completelydifferent process. We are preparing our young people tobecome productive citizens capable of making intelligentchoices in life. Each student we serve has different needs.Our teachers are doing the best they can with overcrowdedclassrooms, limited resources: and little community support.Do you realize that most teachers cannot afford to live inthis city because their salaries are so low? I hear storiesevery day about teachers who spend their own money onsupplies such as chalk and paper because the school districtdoes not have the funds to supply these basic needs. Ourbiggest problem is that we lose many of our finest teacherseach year because of the poor working conditions and lowsalaries. Mr. Shmankie, we don't need to fire more teachers.We need to raise salaries so that we can find the best andbrightest people.Reporter: The next topic covered was the issue of affordable housing. Shmankie: Last time I checked we were living in a free country. In a free country, buyers and sellers have choices. If a buyer doesnot agree with the price, he or she can go to a differentstore. Even if the price is ridiculously high, the governmentdoes not step in and demand that the seller lower his or herprice. Why, then, do people such as Ms. Porter insist that@city government try to control how much landlords chargefor rents? Rent control is downright un-American!If you don't want to pay what the landlord wants to charge,you are free to took somewhere else.Porter:Mr. Shmankie, with all due respect, have you lost yourmind? Are you saying that anyone who advocates rentcontrol or supports other laws that protect people is a badAmerican? Give me a break! Are you aware that in the lastthree years 56 percent of the poor and elderly in this cityhave been forced to leave their apartments because theycouldn't afford to keep up with skyrocketing rent increases?In many cases, this has contributed to the very serioushomeless problem we just discussed. We need rent controlin this town to protect everybody's right to affordablehousing. What's un-American about that, Mr. Shmankie?My fellow Americans, the state of our union is the strongest it has ever been.As always, the real credit belongs to the American people. My gratitude alsogoes to those of you in Congress who have worked with me to help achieve this great success. We have accomplished many things, but we still have a lot ofwork to do to make our nation a better place for all its citizens.Tonight I would I like to share with you some of my ideas, which I hope youwill support.First and foremost, we need a revolution in education, guided by our faith thatevery single child can learn. Because education is the key to our children's@future, we must make sure all our children have that key. That means qualitypre-school and after-school programs, the best trained teachers in theclassroom, and college opportunities for all our children.We know that children learn best in smaller classes with good teachers. For twoyears in a row, Congress has supported my plan to hire 100,000 new qualified teachers to lower class size in the early grades. I thank you for that, and I askyou to make it three years in a row. And to make sure all teachers know thesubjects they teach, tonight I propose a new teacher quality initiative--torecruit more talented people into the classroom, reward good teachers forstaying there, and give all teachers the training they need.Bell SoundSecondly, we need a revolution to reward work and strengthen families, bygiving every parent the tools to succeed at work and at the most importantwork of all--raising "children. That means making sure every family hashealthcare and the support to care for aging parents, the tools to bring their children up right, and that no child grows up in poverty.There are still more than 40 million of our fellow Americans without health insurance. Tonight I propose that we make low-income parents eligible for the insurance that covers their children. Together with our children's initiative, this action would enable us to cover nearly a quarter of all the uninsured people in America.Bell SoundThird, we cannot enjoy a just and fair society until men and women get equal pay for equal work. Today, the female unemployment rate is the lowest it has been in 46 years. Yet, women still only earn about 75 cents for every dollar men earn. We must do better, by providing the resources to enforce present equal pay laws; training more women for high-paying, high-tech jobs; and passing the Paych~k Fairness Act.Bell SoundIn a related issue, many working parents spend up to a quarter of their income on childcare. Last year, we helped parents provide childcare for about 2 million children. My childcare initiative, before you now, along with funds already secured in welfare reform, would make child care better, safer, and more affordable for another 400,000 children. I ask you to pass that. We should also expand the childcare tax credit. And I believe strongly we should take the next big step and make that tax credit refundable for low-income families. For people making under $30,000 a year, that could mean up to $2,400 for childcare costs. You know, we all say we're pro-work and pro-family. Passing this proposal would prove it!Bell Sound@Finally, I'd like to discuss an issue that is very important to all Americans. t you know, crime in America has dropped for the past seven years--that's t) longest decline on record--thanks to stronger community police, sensible gm safety laws, and effective prevention. But nobody--nobody here, nobody i America--believes we're safe enough. So again, I ask you to set a higher goa Let's make this country the safest big country in the world.We must strengthen our gun laws and enforce those already on the book,, Every state in this country already requires hunters and automobile drivers t have a license. I think they ought to do the same thing for handgun purchase,, Now, specifically, I propose a plan to ensure that all new handgun buyers mus first have a photo license from their state showing they passed a backgrounq check and a gun-safety course before they get the gun. I hope you'll help m, pass that in this Congress.In conclusion, this is a great nation. We are young and strong and have man) great ideas. And as long as our dreams are strong and we continue to wort together, America will be forever young. That is our destiny. And this is ou~ moment.。

英语听力文章练习：A Cup of English
I'm a little nervous today. It is a very important day for
the UK, as it is the Brexit referendum. Most informed people will know that UK citizens will vote today to either leave
the European Union or to remain in it. This isn't a small
issue(1). The country is divided on the subject. I have been reading about it and watching videos, some that are for
leaving and others that are against it. To be quite honest(2), my head is spinning with all the information. I find it
difficult to get on with other activities like cooking and cleaning, because I really want to know the result, and have
a clear idea about the consequences of leaving or staying. I had planned to make a pumpkin cake yesterday. I had the ingredients on the kitchen counter, and the recipe. It would be a simple treat to make for my family, but every time I approached the cans of pumpkins, I would immediately turn around and surf the internet for more information about Brexit. How can I think about pumpkin cake now, when the UK
is about to, perhaps, make a huge change? The economy and immigration are the two biggest issues that have been talked about for months. If Britain leaves the EU, trading with it
will be more complicated, and the free flow of immigrants
will be stopped. More power will be given back to the UK government to determine laws and regulations. However, does anyone really know if the changes will be beneficial? And
will the EU suffer if Britain pulls out(3)? Perhaps it won't leave, but regulations from the EU will change? It's all a
big unknown at the moment, like the quality of my future pumpkin cake. I know the ingredients, I know the process of
making it, but you can never really tell how good it will be until it is cooked. So what do I think? Well, I believe in independence, but I also support unity. I think that humans and communities are supposed to work together. The trouble is, that is exactly where problems occur if members are ignorant
or corrupt. I think that we are also supposed to think for ourselves, and determine what is best for us, but advice from many can often help generate creative and efficient ideas. I have decided to hope that however the vote goes, man's ingenuity will solve problems that arise, and find creative and fair ways to keep good relations between Britain and the rest of Europe. And for now, I will open the cans of pumpkins, mix the ingredients carefully, and hope for the best.
