The British always like to talk about what class a person’s in. A lot of people think they aren’t in any class – but the British can always put them in one! The class you’re in comes from the work that you do and the work that your parents did. Factory workers, miners, waiters and shop assistants are the working classes. Cousins of the Queen, people who live in castles and everyone whose family has been rich for more than a hundred years are the upper classes. Between the working classes and the upper classes, there are millions of people. These are the middle classes, and they’re the people who talk most about class. A lot of them are businessmen doctors, teachers and lawyers. They say that they’re the upper middle class, and think they’re much better than the lower middle class. The lower middle class is the class of shopkeepers, clerks and skilled workmen. All this is called the class system. It started in Britain about a hundred and fifty years ago, and the British haven’t seen yet that the world today is different from the world a hundred and fifty years ago. Workmen don’t like their bosses, and bosses don’t like their workmen; but, if you ask them why, they’ll tell you that they don’t like each other because their grandfathers didn’t like each other. The British think they can always tell someone’s class when they hear him talking. They listen to his accent, and then they say: "Yes, he speaks working-class English," or "He speaks very good English. I think he comes from an upper-class family. " Working-class people usually speaks with the accent of the where they live. Most of them say "at" for hat and "ungry" for hungry: when they do this, the British say that they’re dropping their hs. The middle classes speak the upper classes. The upper classes speak with their mouths nearly closed; their English is like English spoken under water! A lot of people go from one class to another, and then they try to change their accent. But they can’t often hide their old accent, and you can usually tell which class they come from. People usually try to go up into a higher class; but today the British think it’s very good to be born in the working classes. So a lot middle – class teachers, writers and politicians try to speak like the working classes. They tell people they were born poor and have worked hard. Today, the upper classes haven’t got much money. They must pay large taxes, and it’s very expensive to repair their big houses and castles. So they show their homes to tourists to make enough money to pay their bills. But the wages of the working classes get bigger every year, because there aren’t enough people to work in the factories. The working – class man often has a bigger car and better clothes than the upper- class man![/grade][/frame

When people talk about England, they often mean Great Britain. There are three countries in Great Britain – England, Scotland and Wales; and each country is very different from the others. If you tell a Scotsman or a Welshman that he’s English, he gets very angry! England’s one of the few countries in the world that haven’t got a national costume. The bowler hat isn’t a national costume: it’s what the Englishman wears when he goes to his office; and it’s worn much less today then it was forty years ago. There aren’t many old English songs and dances, either: the English enjoy music much less than the Welsh and the Scottish. The Scottish national costume is the kilt. The Scottish don’t wear it every day: only at important times. And the answer to the question that everybody asks is. . . No, the men don’t wear pants under their kilts! Scottish music’s played on bagpipes, and there are a lot of Scottish dances that are danced to this music. The most important day of the year for a Scotsman is the thirty-first of December, when all the families have big parties, dance all night. . . And drink a lot of whisky! The Scottish are usually shorter than the English! and a lot of them have got red hair. Always remember to call them `Scottish`. They’ll tell you that only whisky’s called `Scotch`. The Welsh are quiet people who enjoy music and poetry. Every year, thousands of Welsh people meet for a week to listen to poetry and the music of the harp. At this time, they put on their national costume. The women wear tall, black hats and long dresses, and the men wear short jackets and wide trousers. The Welsh are very good singers, and each town’s got a large choir. A lot of Welsh people speak two languages – English and Welsh. They write their poetry in Welsh and watch Welsh television. Some Scottish people who live in the North of Scotland and on the Scottish islands also speak two languages – English and Gaelic. Both Welsh and Scottish people speak English with accents, and it’s possible that you won’t understand them: a lot of English people don’t! The Union jack isn’t the flag of Great Britain: it’s the flag of the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is English, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland; and the Union jack’s made of the English, Scottish and Irish flags. People from all four countries have the same passport, the same Queen and the same government. But each country likes to think it’s got the best footballers!

We all wonder of those people who refuse to live happy and healthy life, they choose to live miserable life intentionally! They want to commit slow suicide, you may ask your self whom are they, they are the smokers.   As we know that our age is full of experiments and discoveries, these experiments may become one day a bad or fatal habits that lead people to death. Smoking is considered one of those habits.  Unfortunately, that most smokers know that this unpleasant habit causes many diseases to them. Perhaps you would care to know that it has an adverse effect on lymph nodes, pituitary glands, nerves centers, heart, blood pressure and lungs, regardless of its fiscal disadvan***es. How to quit smoking?  These are practical steps, but we need deeds not words: * Delay the usual time of smoking, e.g. if you are smoking every day at morning, try to delay it to the afternoon, then try again to delay it to the night. The desire of smoking will reduce gradually. * Try to avoid the places or attitudes that remind you with smoking. Most likely, you will be longing for smoking but you have to hold your horses. * learn new hobbies and sports to fill your time as a trial to distraction from smoking. In fact, they are more and more ways to quit smoking, but we want to notice that you have to put in your consideration the appropriate time and place, not to mention the praying and ask Allah to help you. If you do it, you will be obedient to Allah and held in respect from all people.
