The full name of Britain is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and is unified by a central government and a head of state. Britain is the first industrialized country in the world and a multicultural and open-minded society. London, the capital of Britain, is the largest and most international city in Europe. In addition to the expectation of a wonderful study abroad career, students also need to know some necessary common sense related to Britain in advance.

Queuing culture: In daily life, British people have the habit of queuing, whether on buses, trains or shopping. This is a basic etiquette and respect in British culture.

Don't bargain: When shopping in Britain, especially when buying expensive artworks or commodities, you need to negotiate a reasonable price with the seller. British people don't like bargaining. If you think the price is right, buy it. If not, go away.

Driving rules: Britain is a country that drives on the left, which is just the opposite of the domestic rules of driving on the right. For many students in China, this requires a process of habit.

Food and drink: Traditional English food includes English breakfast, milk tea and muffins, as well as famous English jam and cheese. It is worth noting that it is forbidden to send even-numbered flowers, because even-numbered flowers will bring bad luck. Don't send lilies and chrysanthemums, which are regarded as omens of bad luck or symbols of death.

Friday and the number 13: British people think Friday and the number 13 are very unlucky, especially when it meets Friday at 13.

Pets: British people like animals very much, especially cats and dogs. However, they have all kinds of taboos about black cats.
