Real English life

In recent years, countless people immigrated to Britain. Some immigrated to Britain for the enjoyment of life, some immigrated to Britain for the education of their children, and so on. For those who have emigrated to Britain and students who are about to study in Britain, they all yearn for life in Britain. What will life be like in Britain? Let's take a look at real English life first. 1. Changes in life: In Britain, adults spend an average of 22 hours a week on full-time work or full-time education, and the same amount of time on housework. However, among the people engaged in housework, women are still the highest sex, but more and more women are beginning to participate in this work. According to the latest statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics, the proportion of women participating in the work is 45%. In the non-manual labor sector, women account for half, while in the service industry, women account for more than half. In recent years, great changes have taken place in the consumption pattern of British families. Residents' spending on entertainment and education is increasing. Its expenditure content is to buy durable goods such as radios, televisions, telephones and computers. At the same time, this part of consumption is also used to rent video recorders and music tapes, buy cultural and sports supplies and invest in education. In other words, the lifestyle of the British people now pays more attention to the quality of life, pursues spiritual enjoyment and gradually gets rid of bad habits, such as smoking and drinking.

Second, the pursuit of a simple and comfortable life: the suit can be called the national costume of Britain. However, although office workers wear suits, even on important occasions, men wear tuxedos and women wear low-cut evening dresses, many ordinary people like to wear casual clothes every day, which are simple in style and comfortable to fit. British people's eating habits are also relatively simple, focusing on nutrition. Breakfast is usually cereal with milk or a glass of juice, buttered toast, bacon or fried sausage and eggs. At noon, children have lunch at school, and adults buy a sandwich and a cup of coffee for lunch near their workplace. Only on weekends do British people have a big dinner. Usually the main course is meat, such as roast chicken, roast beef and grilled fish. There are many kinds of vegetables, such as cabbage, fresh peas, potatoes and carrots. Vegetables are generally not processed, put on a plate, poured with ready-made spices bought from the supermarket and eaten. There are always digestible desserts after the main course, such as boiled fruit, fruit pudding, cheese, ice cream and so on.

Parks and green spaces: Britain has a mild and humid climate, which is suitable for the growth of all kinds of flowers and trees all year round. In the process of urban planning, the government has specially planned a large area of green space or park in almost every living area for people to rest or take a walk, and to provide space for children to play. Because it is rainy and foggy in winter, the sunshine in summer is especially precious to the British. On sunny weekends and holidays, parks and beaches are full of sunbathers, and it is a fashion for British people to tan and shine.

Do it yourself: British people like to repair houses, make furniture, decorate rooms, trim gardens and even make their own ceramic crafts on weekends and holidays. This is not only for economic reasons, but also as one of the ways to cultivate personal skills, cultivate personal sentiment and relax. You can make your room more comfortable and personalized by doing it yourself.
