American English Take-home exam 1) Discuss the significance of American English in the English-speaking world. English is one the most widely used languages in the world and globally acknowledged as the lingua franca. It is also the dominant business language. For these facts already, English has a great importance in the today’s world. As the United States of America is one of the leading countries of the world, American English has a certain authority as well. It is now an inescapable fact that America, through its worldwide influence and massive entertainment industry is the mighty power-house that drives the English language. Although British English is considered to be more sophisticated and prestigious than American English, the latter is clearly more featured in television, music, video games and

In 1988 the RHS began charging Members to come to Chelsea and added an extra Members-only day (Wednesday) to its now-traditional Thursday one. Public access to the Show was therefore restricted to Thursday and Friday. 11 The demand is now so intense that since 1988 all tickets have been sold in advance to manage and control the numbers. Everyone complains constantly: the Press grumbles about its ticket allocation; the public grows weary of beating sun or pelting rain and never finding enough places to sit; some exhibitors dislike the rule forbidding them to sell their plants until the end of the last day, while others object to bought-in plants rather than self-cultivated ones going on display at the Show. Until 1987 it was daunting, because there was no limit on visitor numbers. Its known that, in 1987, there were 247,000 visitors. There may have been even more before that

What can you say about the life that she has been leading? Why does she hope that the man in the bar `could be different' (3)? She was killing time before bus arrival - she had no car, she accepted invitation of a man without a hesitation thinking that she may tip down one or two with him; her boots were thin, when she was eating the egg she realized how hungry she was, she didnt know what she'd eaten last, she spent her last money on the ticket, the money was given by some man (so it wasn't hers), she ate one egg after another, that's how hungry she was. She felt fragile, she was afraid to bump against anything. Her skin felt hard and brittle, she knew about her condition and that she can fall apart at slightest touch. She had a tough life, she was divorced, poor, unwell and probably not a Christian since she decided to sleep with a man whom she just met. She also was drinking and smoking.
When current passes through the busbars and projectile, a force is created which propels the projectile along the busbars into air. 4 The first theoretically viable railgun was proposed in 1944 by Joachim Hänsler of Germany's Ordnance Office. The gun was never built but a 1947 report concluded that while it was feasible in theory, the energy consumption for each gun would be enough to illuminate half of Chicago. While minor successes happened afterward, the most notable one was late into the first decade of 2000s, when the U.S. Navy tested a railgun that accelerates a 3.2 kg (7 pound) projectile to hypersonic velocities of approximately 2.4 kilometres per second (8,600 km/h), about Mach 7. They gave the project the motto "Velocitas Eradico", Latin for "I, speed, eradicate"-- or simply, "Speed Kills". 1.2 Theory behind it

sedimentary rocks containing an insoluble rganic solid called kerogen. The kerogen in the rock can be converted into crude oil using heat and pressure to simulate natural processes. The method has been known for centuries and was patented in 1694 under British Crown Patent No. 330 covering, "A way to extract and make great quantities of pitch, tar, and oil out of a sort of stone." Although oil shales are found in many countries, the United States has the world's largest deposits. Classification The petroleum industry generally classifies crude oil by the geographic location it is produced in (e.g. West Texas Intermediate, Brent, or Oman), its API gravity (an oil industry measure of density), and its sulfur content. Crude oil may be considered light if it has low density or heavy if it has high density; and it may be referred to as sweet if it contains relatively little sulfur or sour if it contains substantial amounts of sulfur.
Asia. From the north it is bordered by the Timor Sea and the Torres Strait. From the east by the Coral Sea and the Tasman Sea. Australia's coastline is about 37,000 km long. The Great Australian Bight washes the southern coast. The Gulf of Carpenteria and the Cape York Peninsula surround it in the south. 3. Relief Australia is the smallest continent in the world It is often called the island continent because is too big for an island but rather small for a continent.

Australia Australia is the smallest continent in the world. It is 7.6 million square kilometres big. It is often called the island continent because it is rather small for a continent and very big for an island. There are only five countries bigger than Australia in the World. There are five states in the mainland. Tasmania is also considered as a state so there are six states. The Northern Territory and Canberra are also independent but they are not states. Canberra is the capital of Australia and it is situated between Sydney and Melbourne because both of these cities wanted to be the capital. The population is about 19 million people and growing. New South Wales is the most populated state and Victoria is the most densely populated state. The national language is English. It is English because British settlers came to live in Australia in

g. teaching assistants, young specialists) since I strongly believe that blogs provide an immediate and the least formalized form of feedback which is crucially essential especially on the initial stages of teaching career. RESEARCH METHODS In terms of methodology this MA project falls to the category of quantitative research. It will advocate the use of quantitative methods, seek facts of causes of social phenomena without regard to the subjective states of the individuals. It will have an obtrusive and controlled measurement of data. The main focus will be on verification of data, confirmation. The hypothesis will be directed at finding out whether the impact of blogs tends to have a positive effect on the field of EFL learning. Also, since there is an established hypothesis it automatically means that method will be deductive. Apparently, this research will be ooutcome-oriented as the findings obtained throughout the
This type of chimney was unique to medieval homes, with a bottom section that widened to create a square space that would define the outlines of the small kitchen beneath it. The house also had one heated living room and several unheated rooms, basement rooms, and rooms upstairs for the storage of goods. The entrance hall typically had a higher ceiling than the adjacent rooms, as well as a staircase leading to the upstairs rooms. Goods were usually hoisted to the upper floors directly from the street with the help of winches that would raise them to hatches visible on the front of the house. The entrance hallway served as the merchant's workroom and front office, which he would decorate with ashlars' stones as fine as his wealth would allow. The doors leading to the interior rooms were also decorated as grandly as possible. Heat rose into the living room from a stove in the basement. Making a fire in the stove would
Public International Law is a system of law, different from domestic law. Why is this system unique? Usually law regulates relations between people, people and the state etc, PIL regulates relations between states. Thats why PIL is important for international relation students. PIL influences the life of everybody, it doesn't regulate people directly but indirectly (through the decisions of the states), because it's everywhere. It's like air. E.g. when you want to send a letter to Brazil, you put a stamp from your own country and send it from your post office and the letter gets delivered. Why is this so easy, because there are certain international conventions that regulate postal services
England banned the breeding of " dogs- fighters " in 1991. Later New Zealand, France, Israel, Australia, Italy, Spain, Denmark, and Sweden followed this example. 1.2. Is there a restriction of trade in goods? Yes. See below Is the case linked with free movement of goods? Yes. Articles 28–30 of the EC Treaty defined the scope and content of the principle by prohibiting unjustified restrictions on intra-EU trade. The right to free movement of goods originating in Member States, and of goods from third countries, which are in free circulation in the Member States, is one of the fundamental principles of the Treaty (Art. 28 TFEU). According to its wording, Article 34 TFEU applies to obstacles in trade ‘between Member States’. A cross-border element is therefore a prerequisite for evaluating a case under this provision. Taking into account that described measures affect also import and export of dogs, its fall in the scope of the Article 34-36 TFEU

Labor bottlenecks are becoming more common in certain sectors, and this will increasingly restrict growth in output in the future. The main constraint to medium-term economic growth will be the drop in the population of working age once the post-war baby boomers reach retirement age.

metaphorically implies a logic of production. As such, Uriely et al.’s (2002) reference to a backpacking biography presents an apt departure point in the backpacking literature for exploring how the episodic consumption of backpacking can be assembled into a meaningful and identifiable lifestyle. Lifestyle Consumption Although lifestyles can be used as a means of socially stratifying individuals, as one might do through social class, occupation, ethnicity or culture, it is important to locate lifestyles as products of the same post-industrial period they can be used to analyse (Binkley, 2004). Lifestyles are central to debates about consumer culture and are often ‘articulated in relation to shifts identified with post-Fordism and/or postmodernism’ (Bell & Hollows, 2006, p. 1). Historical shifts from mass to specialised production in the context of urbanisation saw
