Surveys Cassandre-Anne and Samya

During our travel to Stuttgart we had to ask to some germans in the streets, questions about three topics : the energy, studies and food

Nuclear:

The germans do not really know about the generation of energy in their country .The people asked about the nuclear was not really sure about the number of nuclear power station in Germany . Some of them said 6, 7 or 9. So we tried to find more information on internet . They are 8 nuclear power stations which are steel working in Germany . The nuclear energy represent 15 % of the countries energy . At the time we were in German there was an event against the construction of Stuttgart 21 with some ecologists . We ask them what they feel about the nuclear power in Germany and they all answer that they do not appreciate this fact and the government have to think for another solution.

                                             

Studies :

We asked to students about the university of Stuttgart. We learn that the university in Stuttgart has a lot of pathways such as science, language, art and literature. There is also a pathway for aerospace. A student was also proud to say that some of the students of the university of Stuttgart become famous such as Uls Merbold who is a physician and astronomer

 Food :

We tried some typical German food such as Currywurst. The Currywurst is a plate of cute sausages with ketchup and curry powder. There were really good. We can find them everywhere in Germany. We also tried a pretzel of course.

We also see some Kasekuchen and Kasetorte at a bakery. It's a cake or a pie made of cheese.

Question asked

You want to know more about everyday life in Germany 

In Germany the retirement age is 63 years old , the unemployment is around 5 % the minimum salary is around 1400 €, and the hour of work per day is between 50 and 60 hour per week.
In France the minimum salary is about the same for very less work per week and the retirement age is for now at 62 years old and the employment rate is around 10 %.For me it's better to work in France even if the unemployment rate is higher because you are not living for you're work.

Three questions ( Valentin Saltel )

You want to know more about everyday life in germany.

During our trip to Stuttgart , the teachers gave us a work which was to question the people who were there the days of our free time. The questions were asked about daily life in Germany. Our questions were about the studies in Germany , the German and French cuisine and German media. We had interviewed students in to the streets, they answered us that most students came from other cities. There was a girl who came from Berlin and then another from Munich.
All those we interviewed wanted either work in the world of medicine or in the middle of the technology. The studies are paid by their parents because they do not have the time to work outside of class. We ask them what they were doing in their spare time, they all answered us, they did not have much time but if they do, they also want to do their business. The Germans are not necessarily known for gastronomy, but they have some dishes which are famous in the world like "SCHNITZEL","BRETZEL"etc...
For the medias we found a tv channel which was recording a program and we went meet    them to ask some questions but they refused to answer us, but we know that "2DF", "3SAT" are most famous tv channels in Germany.
To finish we enjoyed the trip and the group was cool. It allowed us to measure our level of English.
