8．Every year，it costs British students more and more to attend university．（36）BSo is a university degree really worth it？
In 2006，the UK government started to allow universities in England and Wales to charge British students tuition fees．As a result，more than 80% of students in England and Wales now take out a student loan（贷款） in order to go to university．（37）FThe average student in England and Wales now graduates from university with debts of around￡12，000．Students of medicine，who study for longer，usually have debts of more than￡20，000．That is a lot of money．（38）G They even struggle to pay rent on a house，because they have to start paying back the student loan after graduating．
You might think that a British person with a degree will find it easy to get a well-paid job．However，most people in"white-collar jobs"seem to have a degree these days，so there is a lot of competition．（39）ALike everyone else，graduates usually have to start at the bottom and work their way up．That can be very frustrating for them，since they are often over-qualified for the work they are doing．While at university，they had dreams of getting an exciting，challenging job．Therefore，life after university ends up being quite disappointing for a lot of graduates．（40）D Students have always been seen as not having a lot of money，but"student poverty"is now considered a real problem in the UK．Most British students expect to get a loan，part-time job or summer job．Worse still，however，an increasing number of students turn to crime to support themselves．

A．Also，British companies tend to value work experience over a piece of paper．
B．They are graduating with larger and larger debts．

In an effort to discourage people from using plastics，scientists have been hard at work inventing alternative packaging products．From water bottles made from seaweed to cutlery（餐具）made from rice and wheat，a number of inventions are set to change the way we eat while we are on the go，or having a relaxing picnic in the park．
