We are the students at Abu Dhabi Men's College.
We have to be in the classroom on time.
Physics and chemistry lessons take place in a laboratory.
There are no healthy food outlets in our canteen/ cafeteria.
I read books and magazines and also do IELTS practice in our college library, which is large and well-stocked.
Student services organise activities for us.
The academic office performs many administrative tasks, such as issuing ID cards and arranging exam schedules.
There is a special learning centre in our library, called the Active Learning Zone, to provide students with extra help with their English.
Conferences and large meetings are often held in the college auditorium, which is also where we do our progress tests.

It has a 1400 cc engine size and it does 48 miles per gallon. The second car is the Volkswagen Golf which is made in Germany and it costs $ 18,250. Well, it has a 1600 cc engine size and does 40 miles per gallon. The third car is the Ford Focus which is made in the USA, costs $ 15,800 with a 1400 cc engine size and the consumption is 50 miles per gallon. The last car is the Nissan Micra which is made in Japan and it costs $ 15,500. It has a 1200 cc engine size and does 52 miles per gallon.

UK Budget In 1996
The UK government’s budget in 1996 was £ 315 billion. This pie chart shows what the government spent the money on, divided into ten categories.
The government spent most money, by far, on social security, £100 billion. This was almost twice as much as the next category, health which cost £ 53 billion. The next biggest sector was education, which received £38 billion. Education is very important to improve society. This chart also shows defence , debt interest and other expenditure which had similar levels of spending , £ 22 billion for defence, £ 25 billion for debt interest, and £ 23 billion for other expenditure. The law and order had £17 billion which includes police, but housing, heritage and environment spent £15 billion. £13 billion was spent on industry, agriculture and employment. Lastly, transport had £9 billion which is the lowest category.
The most striking feature of the chart is that social security and health expenditure combined accounted for almost a half of the UK budget in 1996.
