The National Health Service was set up as a part of welfare in uk. It have treated more patients every year, but with limited resources it has had to deal with ill health caused by changes in lifestyle.
There are many reasons for inequalities in health in the UK. some parts of the country have poorer health, differences between the poorest and richest parts are greater.Those living in poverty have poorer life chances and poorer health because of lower living standards, including bad housing and bad diet. And women are more aware of health issues and more likely to consult doctors than men.
The most important diffirence between NHS in uk and the medical service in china is the free problem. We must pay a lot of money in hospital if we are ill in china, but the NHS in uk is free.
The weak poit of NHS is the lower inefficiency, patients will have to wait for may be some weeks,may be some months, some times may be more than a year for a operation. We hope it can improve under the attention of government.

Education in Britain - Homeschooling
According to web site http://www.privateschools.co.uk/, i discovered that there are 2,500+ non-government fund schools in the UK which are independent of local or central government control. Such as Lyndon Preparatory School , Cardiff Academy and so on.It used to be thought that only rich and Privately-educated people sent their children to Private schools. This is certainly not true now. More than half the children entering private education have parents who were educated in the state system.
Homeschooling has grown significantly over the past several years, with current estimates of up to 1.5 million students now attending homeschool.
A majority of homeschoolers have one or more of the following three basic reasons: 1) School environment 2) Religious or Moral 3) Academics. There is a huge variety of advantages ,Some homeschool so their child can be in the movies. Some homeschool because it is hard to get rid of bad public school teachers. Others homeschool because of the father's work schedule.
Inspite of so many advantages,there are also many disvantages of homeschooling in my opinion. The foremost important one is the friendship of the classmate.Either discussing assignment or playing together is a good method to improve students' communication.
