Hi, Tania
I’ve been in England for about a month now and I’ve just
started to understand their way of life. At first I found some things
very unusual.
First, their weather is really changeable and you
always carry your umbrella with you as it start raining any
moment.
Second, when you cross a street youlook right first
and then left.
And the worst thing is that yougo shopping late in
the evenings as their shops close far too often and far too early. In
Ekaterinburg youshop even at night. I ran out of bread
once and I buy bread at 10 p.m. (all the supermarkets
nearby were closed!) and Igo to a snack-bar to have a
snack. I’m making some money babysitting for the next-door family. It’s OK, on the whole, but there are several rules which I
observe. I use their computer or watch TV. I
take the baby for a walk for 2 hours every day whatever
the weather.
But I like my life and studies here as I learn so many new
things.
you say hello to all our friends? go now.
Looking forward to your letter,
Nadia.

ответ:Has university life changed beyond recognition for a new generation of undergraduates or is it the same as it ever was? Five parents compare their own experiences with their children’s

Long gone but not forgotten are those carefree student days of shared showers, derelict rental properties and parties where the booze always ran out before midnight. Being a student was quite a privilege in the good old days when local authorities and the government footed the bill and there was almost certainly a job at the end of it.

In the early 1960s, only 4% of school leavers went to university, rising to around 14% by the end of the 1970s. Nowadays, more than 40% of young people start undergraduate degrees – but it comes at a cost. Today’s students leave with debts of £40,000 and upwards to pay back over their working lives.
