From Source A, the argument used by de Gaulle was that, if Britain submits to the rule of the Six, it would then be forced to raised the price of its food price adopted by the continental countries, consequently increasing the wage of Britain worker and the price of Britain good.

Also, he used language such as Britain nourishes itself .This shows that he think rather than a common market, Britain would decide to benefit itself with the Common Market.Showing France unwelcoming attitude

  From source A, president of France,de Gaulle, stated that we(the inner six)understand why Britain didn’t merge a community with strict rules. He also ,mentioned Britain was tied to the US with all kinds of special agreements.

This showed that France was blaming Britain for not accepting the strict rules of The Common Market, and making agreements with US secretly.

From source A, France said that Britain is not continental . And said Britain has a close relations with United States.This shows that de Gaulle is trying to isolate Britain from Europe by saying that it’s not on the same continent with the inner 6. Stating that Britain has a close relationship with United States shows that de Gaulle is trying to group Britain and United States as the foreigners. Isolating Britain furthermore.

According to Source B,In late 1960s,European feared that exchange rate instability would disrupt

trade.Uncertainty over currency values makes it harder for buyers and

sellers to calculate appropriate prices and negotiate contracts. It shows the instability of exchange rate made the trade amoung EC members become harder and harm the econmic development in Europe as if the exchange rate is instable,it is hard to set a right price.

Firstly, the Schengen Area was established in 1995, deepening European relations. According to Source D, the Schengen Agreement took effect in March 1995. The agreement allows the nationals of the signing countries to travel between these countries without a passport and work in those countries without any further permission. According to my own knowledge, 8 more countries joined the Area between 1995 - 2000. This means the Schengen Area may attract European countries to be integrated, which will deepen European relations.

USSR. According to Source A, an Intergovernmental Conference was convened to consider the Treaty amendments required to establish the EMU(European Monetary Union)......the disintegration of the Soviet system created new uncertainties about the future development of Western Security. This means many countries separated from the USSR. They posed an uncertainty to the policy discussed before. The Western countries had to decide whether allow them to join and what measures to treat them.

"the Eastern enlargement of the community, and the financial and institutional implications of such a development, was not unavoidable." It means that the Eastern Europe had a possible economic problem. It made setting up a single currency in Europe more complicating.

In conclusion, the EU has brought a better Europe.
