− | + | Was die polizeiliche Überwarchung angeht, kam die Einwanderungswelle zusammen mit einem Rückgang der Kriminalitätsrate in Cambridgeshire. Einige Delikte waren Problemfälle, obwohl sich ihre Auswirkungen nur als kurzzeitig erwiesen haben mögen: Die Spitze in Sachen betrunken Autofahren ist beispielweise um zwei drittel seit 2004 gesunken. Das deutet an, dass die Migranten, wenn sie einmal dem lokalen Gesetz begegnen, ihr Verhalten dementsprechend anpassen. Es ist offensichtlich, dass die historisch hohe Einwanderungsrate lokale Brennpunkte zur Folge hat – und deshalb verdienen die liberalen Demokraten das Ansehen, da sie sich mit einem der dornigsten Aspekte von Allen auseinandersetzen: den 310.000 – 570.000 verdeckten Migranten, welche schätzungsweise illegal im Vereinten Königreich leben. Der Pressesprecher der Innenpolitik, Nick Clegg, schlägt vor, dass diese Menschen die Möglichkeit bekommen sollen, die Staatsbürgerschaft zu gewinnen. Ihnen eine Begnadigung anzubieten würde bedeuten, dass mehr Steuern bezahlt werden und könnte helfen das Dumping der Löhne von einheimischen Menschen zu stoppen. Es sollte zudem gut für die Migranten sein, von denen viele die Ausbeutung auf der Arbeit ohne irgendwelche angemessenen Schutzmaßnahmen dulden. | |

+ | === What influences on and changes to English spoken in Britain are mentioned in the text ? === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The language in Britain is influenced by several factors. Firstly children are <u>adopting other pronounciations</u> to ''increase their coolness''. A second strong influence is the <u>American language</u> from which many words are assimilated into British English. For example ''American words like "barf" or "vomit"'' are fully integrated into British English. Furthermore words, which are slang are <u>mentioned in the dictionary</u>. For instance ''while words like "bobbitt" are not mentioned anymore, new words like "dweeb" appear''. Also the <u>media is effecting</u> the British language. The ''employment of newsreaders that don't speak Received Pronounciation like Anna Ford'' is an example for this statement. In conclusion you can say if even the upper-class children have given up their Received Pronounciation it is a strong signal for the fast change in speaking culture. | ||

+ | |||
+ | Europe and the USA have different points of view about religion. The Europeans think that religion is oppressive and that the enlightenment brought freedom from religion because the churches tried to prevent democracy. Furthermore they have experienced that the church interferes in their private lives and that cruel wars were fought because of religious reasons. Europeans have seen that in past a mixture of patriotism and religion caused pain and desperation. That's why in Europe some people are frightened of the way religion and nationalism are combined in the USA. In America the churches are seen as something positive that fights for the people's rights against slavery and in favour of civil rights. For the Americans the enlightenment means freedom to believe. Due to these different attitudes Europe and America are divided about the role of religion. |

What influences on and changes to English spoken in Britain are mentioned in the text ?
The language in Britain is influenced by several factors. Firstly children are adopting other pronounciations to increase their coolness. A second strong influence is the American language from which many words are assimilated into British English. For example American words like "barf" or "vomit" are fully integrated into British English. Furthermore words, which are slang are mentioned in the dictionary. For instance while words like "bobbitt" are not mentioned anymore, new words like "dweeb" appear. Also the media is effecting the British language. The employment of newsreaders that don't speak Received Pronounciation like Anna Ford is an example for this statement. In conclusion you can say if even the upper-class children have given up their Received Pronounciation it is a strong signal for the fast change in speaking culture.

The advert called "buckle up" by the "Deutsche Verkehrswacht" wants to warn all cardrivers to put on their seatbelts. Therefore they created four pictures showing casually selected people, men and women, young and old. Three of them are marked by a black ribbon and the man on the fourth picture wears a seatbelt. Black ribbons usually symbolize that the person on the picture is dead. They propably got killed by an car-accident or in other situations on the road. The man on the fourth is still alive because he wears a seatbelt. This contrast is supported by the colors of the advert. The background, the clothes and the picture frames are bright and the ribbons and the seatbelt is deep black. The advert confronts the people with the consequences of not buckling up while driving a car. It uses the fear of death which is typical for every person.

Why does the question of the role of religion divide the USA and Europe according to part 2 (Enlightenment divergence) and 4 (Philosophical Differences)?
Europe and the USA have different points of view about religion. The Europeans think that religion is oppressive and that the enlightenment brought freedom from religion because the churches tried to prevent democracy. Furthermore they have experienced that the church interferes in their private lives and that cruel wars were fought because of religious reasons. Europeans have seen that in past a mixture of patriotism and religion caused pain and desperation. That's why in Europe some people are frightened of the way religion and nationalism are combined in the USA. In America the churches are seen as something positive that fights for the people's rights against slavery and in favour of civil rights. For the Americans the enlightenment means freedom to believe. Due to these different attitudes Europe and America are divided about the role of religion.
