When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and go to the city. We lived on a farm and, in the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I finished school, I moved to the capital(首都). However, I soon discovered that city life had its problems, too.

One big problem in cities is money---it costs(花费) so much, not including food and housing. Another problem is pollution. I have suffered from asthma (患有哮喘) since I was five. So when the air is so bad, I am afraid to go outside. As for travelling round, I hardly ever drive a car because of the heavy traffic. Many people choose to go by bike, but that can be quite dangerous.

Of course there is something good in cities, too. You can find a lot to do in the city, both in culture and entertainment(娱乐). Also, there are different kinds of wonderful jobs and people can make more money. Finally, if you like shopping, the stores are very surprising---and, what is more, they are often only a short walk away.

Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are teenagers or in your twenties. However, as you get older, and especially when you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem better. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
