Website www.proudheritage.org/home/com The page id mainly about the proud heritage in Britain and the reason why they proud. I think the page not only gives us the definition of proud but also teaches us some the history and art about Britain.
Personal experience I still remembered the final exam of British history in the first term of last year. Everyone was fighting for a good result and I went to self- study room everyday as soon as the class finished until the closed time to prepare for the final exam. I worked very hard and many classmates consulted me when they had questions in reviewing the module. At last, I only took thirty minutes to finish the history exam and got the highest mark in the class and I was very proud of myself because of my efforts.
