Some villages still    66    because people from big cities have bought a “second house” in the    67   , where they come and stay at weekends. The price of the houses in the villages    68    and the local people can’t afford to buy a house there. Another problem is that it’s more and more    69    for farmers to live in the countryside. So they sell their    70    and find another job.
