Awarn Badvise Cdescribe DadvertiseB BAbout whether to live in the city or the countryside my friends have different opinions. To avoid the noise, smog, traffic, and crime in the city, most of them are moving outside the city.One friend says, “The air is heavily polluted in the city, so I prefer to live outside, where the air is clean.”Another friend is unpleasant with the traffic, “Downtown is crowded with cars! You cant find a parking place, and the traffic jams are terrible.” Everyone is worried about crime, “The city is full of criminals. -its too dangerous.”For them, the rural life is a cure for all problems, green grass, flowers, swimming pools, barbecues, and so on. Yet after they have lived there for a year or so, they realize that rural life is not so pleasant as they were expecting. Why? Their gardens! They soon learn that the main part of rural life is yard work. After they work all weekend in their gardens, theyre too tired to swim in their pools or cook some meat on their barbecues. And they cant live in the countryside without a car. Most of them moved to the countryside to avoid traffic, but now theyre blocked on a busy freeway two hours every day to drive to work downtown.3My opinions about urban life are different-I love to live downtown! Why? First, in the city, I can enjoy nature. I can walk through the park, smell the flowers, sit on the grass and visit the animals in the zoo. Yet I dont have to do yard work or feed the animals. Also, I can get everywhere by bus; if there is a traffic jam, I can walk home. I think the criminal life will reflect changes in society too; if people are buying homes outside the city, the criminals will soon follow. Criminals want to avoid noise, smog, and pollution, too. Then, overcrowding and crime will be problems of the suburbs instead of the city!24.
