Would you like to live in the countryside in the future? You know, life in rural regions seems to be morej tranquil |and less competitive than that of (vibrant) cities. Particularly, the atmosphere is ^ongenialj the air is fresh and unpolluted, and the local residents are (simple and hospitable, so I think when I get older, countryside would be an ideal spot (for me either to live in or travel to. 29.2. What's the difference between living in the city and countryside? I think that many differences could be counted. Firstly, the infrastructure in city is significantly more modern, comprehensive and convenient for traveling than that of the countryside. Additionally, rural citizens’ lifestyle is less competitive and hectic than urban counterparts. A reasonable explanation for this is that development of the economy and technology in vibrant cities is accelerating more than ever before 29.3. How are modern homes different from older homes? I suppose there are a number of differences really. On the one hand, modern homes tend to be equipped with all the mod cons, ranging from well-furnished interior to state- of-the-art household appliances; you can come across many high-tech products in a modern house like vacuum cleaners and dishwashers. Meanwhile, older homes are usually plain in their designs with less furnishings and have gloomy interior design. 29.4. Do most people in your country live in an apartment or house? Well, I guess it depends on the ages really. For young generation, there is a sweeping trend that they live more apart from their families and take out a mortgage for a rented apartment in the urban areas since they are dynamic and would love city life pretty much. For older citizens, living together with their children and grandchildren is usually the norm. As they’re old and weak, a house offers them the care and affection from others, which can hardly be found in an apartment. 29.5. Do young people in your country like to live with their parents or by themselves? From my perspective, the young generation today has a tendency to lead an independent life from quite early and would rather live on their own than with their parents near them. The reasons for this can be that small children are educated to do things by themselves and many students often migrate from rural areas to the urban ones to pursue tertiary education. This is a time they have to rely on themselves by going to the market to buy foods, wash their own clothes and so on. Gradually, this becomes a habit and the youths no longer want to see their parents regularly. 30. Describe a decision you disagree with It was a few years back when I was still in college that I was offered an opportunity to go on a voluntary trip to [___], the most worth-living city in our country. I was over the moon when first hearing the news but all my anticipation and happiness fled away when my parents flatly rejected the idea. I was dumbfounded since my time and effort spent on the preparation for our project wasn’t about to be paid off. However, I was old enough to know better than making a fuss about it at the moment; instead, I gave myself time and peace before reasoning with my parents. It came as no surprise to me when they took their all-time-favorite excuse that I was too immature to take care of myself and that there were plenty of untrustworthy people willing to take advantage of me out there when I was unaware. Much as I tried to assure them how well I would manage to stay safe and help other underprivileged people, I just couldn’t get through them. As a result, I had no options but withdrawing from the project with regrets. However, I wasn’t able to hold a grudge against my parents for long because I understood they were just overprotective and genuinely concerned about my well-being. Download 1.86 Mb.
