Shop Assistant: Can I help you? Mother: I'd like to buy a light summer frock for my daughter. Shop Assistant (addressing Jane, a slim fifteen-years old girl): What size d'you wear? Jane: I don't know exactly. 24 or 26 maybe. Can you measure me? Shop Assistant (measures the girl): You're 24" waist. What d'you think of this pale-blue one, made of silk. It's the latest fashion. Jane: I don't think so. The frock is not bad, but it's slightly out-of-fashion. Besides, the cut is not perfect, the skirt is too long, the collar looks awful and so do the sleeves. And I don't quite like the colour. Will you please show me another dress. I'd like to have a look at this pink one. Shop Assistant: Just a moment! Well, here you are. The size is yours. Jane: Thank you greatly. Can I try it on? Shop Assistant: Certainly, you can. This way, please. (In the fitting-room Jane puts the dress on and looks at the mirror.Then she asks her mother to come in and have a look at her.) Jane: What d'you think, Mum? Isn't it terribly pretty? The cut is fantastic, the colour is raving. Mother: I'd rather say fabulous! Besides, it's a bit loose on you to my mind. You look incredibly thin as though you're dying of hunger. Jane: Mum?! Shop Assistant: Oh, please, don't say so. It fits her perfectly. Take my advice and buy it. Mother: How much does it cost? Shop Assistant: $150. Mother: It isn't very cheap, is it? Shop Assistant: But the dress is from the last fashion collection. Don't you want your daughter look smart? Mother: Do you really think so? Well, where is the cash desk? Shop Assistant: This way, please. Good luck.
i think one of the main reasons that leads to a list of differences is that in Canada, universities are some kind of a “service”: students pay good money for it, and expect to receive a good service in returnUniversities in Canada are much more customer oriented to students than in Russia. Professors and staff try to make a student`s experience the best they possibly can!
Also there are lots of different resources available to help students. Such as if a student is struggling with figuring out what are they going to do with their career, if they need information about extending their study permit or if they run into some issues with understanding subjects they are studying, there are many people available to help. In each university there will be lots of advising available (academic, career, international and so on). Professors` office hours and various services likePeer Education are conducted by students for the benefit of student experience and community..
