Je gaat kijken en luisteren naar een reportage uit Sheffield. Er wordt gesproken over social housing, council houses en council estates. Met deze begrippen wordt de relatief goedkope, door de overheid gesubsidieerde sociale woningbouw bedoeld.

the First World War?

1. as an economic effect of the military victory
2. as an incentive for people to join the military
3. as a reward for military services rendered

council housing

3 What was the overall mood in the Flower Estate?

1. People experienced a strong sense of belonging.
2. People felt an urge to renovate their homes.
3. People were happy to live with their relatives nearby.

4 What is one of the dilemmas regarding social housing these days?

1. what is done to stimulate people to buy their council home
2. what needs to be done about crime in council estates
3. what the criteria should be to qualify for a council house

5 What should an estate be like, according to tenant Lesley?

It should be a place

1. that is about people rather than about government policies.

2. The council houses no longer meet with today’s housing standards.
3. There are many people who wrongfully occupy a council house.

7 What, according to property analyst Kate Faulkner, does the government fail to see?

that building council estates

1. could boost the economy if it focused on a wealthier type of occupant
2. makes sound economic sense, when analysed in a broader context
3. should be a moral obligation, rather than an economic consideration
