Task 2
Some people think that living in the city is good, but some people think that living in the countryside is better. There are many positive and negative sides to both areas. Personally, I agree with both ideas and will give some examples from my own experience.
On the one hand, people prefer to live in the countryside because life in the village is clean and simple.
Firstly, living in the countryside is a better option, it can indicate a lower risk of air pollution, which is better for people’s health than living in urban areas. In addition, the cost of living in the countryside is much lower than in big cities. So, living in the countryside has more health and economic benefits.
On the one hand, there are many reasons why people think that living in urban areas is better. Firstly, city life is very simple. It provides all kinds of amenities. There are medical services, cinemas, theaters and fast communication services, absolutely all possibilities are there. In addition, the sanitary conditions in big cities are very good. The roads are also wide. However, there are several disadvantages of city life. People are arrogant and proud. They never help each other. Individuals living in the city have more access to high-paying job opportunities.
In conclusion, I think that living in the city gives good financial prospects, but living in the countryside has more advantages. Each place has its own value.
