Drawing upon what you have learned about City Road, outline how differences are made and remade on a street which you know. Every street has a different purpose, some provide food shops, clothe shops, some have business and some are used as a road to get from A to B. City Road, Cardiff and Prince of Wales road, Norwich are two main roads in different cities that provide something different. They have many differences and show over the years, there have been many changes on both roads. When looking at the life on City Road (‘The Street’, 2009) and observing what happens throughout the course of a day, it is clear that the road is used by a variety of people for many different reasons.
Also found there are many small, unique, and cultural shops, in historical buildings, that when combined with the cultural aspect of Chinatown make this place a must see for all. Each building is beautiful, and none are the same. The alleyways are exciting and China town is a fun place for all. Of course the uses of the buildings and the buildings themselves are always becoming more modern, yet history is found for miles in this small but vibrant part of Victoria. Victoria’s historical landmarks make this city unique and full of depth.
Drawing on what you have learnt from the “Making Social Lives” DVD and “Learning Companion 1”, describe some inequalities on City Road. City Road is a 1 mile stretch of road which is one of the busiest roads in Cardiff. It is used by a wide range of people at all hours of the day and night, home to a wide range of people and full of shops, restaurants, takeaways and bars.

In this TMA I will be explaining what inequalities I have established are present on City Road using the DVD and Learning Aids provided.

Diving down the Westport road, I park my car at the event parking lot in Pennsylvania Ave. It’s past 9:00 on a Friday night. The sound makes me walking in the Europe Street, but there is not in Europe. In addition, the atmosphere is to my liking such as not Kansas City. Usually, living a Kansas City is not living in an urban city. Sure thing is that most people who live in Kansas City think Kansas City is urban.
Data Interpretation Tourism has a negative impact on Keswick The key concept relating to traffic and the problems it may bring to Keswick are shown as proportional arrows. The traffic arrows of Keswick shows there is high numbers of traffic coming to and from Keswick.

Once we actually got out of the White Bear South Campus parking lot we took a new road where not many others were headed thinking to ourselves that there would be much less traffic. To our surprise, there was a profusion of traffic. The problem here is that it has been snowing all day and this made the roads slippery and unsafe. While making our way down the road we saw a gathering of different cars slipping into the snow banks. We of course as teenagers just laughed it away and thought to ourselves ‘learn how to drive dummy’.
Lluvia N Moreno Aguilar April 12, 2015 Ms.Patterson Observation Assignment Sociology, many do not know the meaning behind this powerful word, that makes the world run smoothly and if we are not careful it can encounter us to situations that are not too pleasant. Going to the mall is something everyone has done at some point in life. Whether is to shop, meet with friends at the café, or simply to just go out. On this assignment I wanted to concentrate in one mall which is “Arizona Mills Mall” for the simple reason, the population that attends this mall is very diverse. And by diverse I mean, different status and ethnicity.
Fortunately this incident turned out okay and no one was hurt but what about next time? Motorcycles don’t posses many safety features that protect their rider. A car contains seat belts, airbags, four wheels for stability, and more; these are important features that help reduce accident and fatality rates. These issues only add to the main problem which is the drivers themselves, I am talking about both motorcycle rider and automobile driver. These two figures represent a vast majority of those on the streets, they are either inexperienced drivers or to comfortable with their driving habits and lack the attention needed to avoid situations that can arise quickly.
