About big cities

  New York, London, Paris and other big cities are wonderful places to live in. There are many nice things to see and to do. You can go to different kinds of museums, plays and films. You can also go shopping to buy things from all over the world.

  But there are serious problems in big cities, too. The cost of living is high, and there are too many people in some places. Every year many people move to the cities because there are more chances to find jobs, to study at good schools and to receive good medical care. But sometimes these people can not find jobs or good places to live in. Also, too many people in a small space make it hard to keep the cities safe and clean.

  Some people enjoy staying in big cities, others do not. Before people move to a big city, they should think about the problems of staying there.
