the Countryside or the City

字號:

By living in the countryside, we may enjoy fresh air and food. Unlike the cities, there is almost no pollution in the countryside. What's more, we are much closer to nature. Green trees and grass are everywhere. Life in the countryside is also peaceful and safe, the crime rate there is lower than in the cities. People in the rural area are much closely related with each other, and they seldom feel lonely. Whenever one is in trouble, others will lend a hand.
    On the other hand, to live in the cities is not a bad choice either. City traffic is so well developed that people can go anywhere easily and quickly. It is also convenient to do shopping because many shops and markets are just round the corner. In addition, urban people can enjoy more leisure and entertainment.
    Cinemas, bars, restaurants and parks are everywhere and some are open day and night. In a word, city people can always have fun if they have time and money. There are both advantages and disadvantages for people either living in the rural or urban areas. We can't have both at the same time. As the saying goes, "You can't eat the cake and have it." As for myself I would prefer to work in the city and live in the countrside. Maybe, the suburban area is the best chioce.
