Q: What are the advantages and disadvantages of living in the city?
A: Living in the city is accompanied by a wide range of troubles including traffic problems and over population. Nevertheless there are numerous places for entertainment and more advanced technologies in cities compared to the countryside. There are also a large number of educational facilities in a metropolis especially when it comes to higher education. But to be honest the countryside has more natural beauty such as mountains hills rivers lakes and grasslands. The lifestyle there is very peaceful and we don’t need to worry too much about the hustle and bustle of city life.
生活在城市伴随着一系列的问题，包括交通问题和人口过剩。然而，与农村相比，城市有许多娱乐的地方和更先进的技术。大都市也有大量的教育设施，特别是在高等教育方面。但说实话，乡村有更多的自然美，如山、丘陵、河流、湖泊和草原。那里的生活方式很平静，我们不用太担心城市生活的喧嚣。
