    Some people might choose to live in a sleepy village beside woods and lakesbut others enjoy the bright lights and fast pace of the big cityStephen and Marianna have got different stories.

Hi! My name is Stephen and I live in a small flat in LondonI chose to live here because there is never a b  1  moment in a city like LondonI’m an art student and the busy life in a city does good to my paintingIn additionI can get everything I need so close at handLiving beside the underground station means that I don’t need a car to get aroundIt’s  me moneyAlso there are mallscinemaslibraries and museums everywhere

Of courseLondonlike any large cityhas p  3  tooLondoners don’t chat on the underground or the bus and there is much less community spirit than in the countrywhere my parents liveIn factthey don’t understand how I can put up with(忍受)the noise and pollutionand traffic jamsHoweverI see that as a small price to p  4  As a famous saying goes,“He who is tired of London is tired of life.”

Hello! My name is Marianna and I live in Australiaon a huge ranch(牧场)It’s a beautiful area with wonderful sceneryI live here with my husband Joe and our t  5 childrenPatrick11and Abby8We have lived on this ranch for several years and we love our healthy lifestyleThe children have lots of s  6 to run around and enjoy the peace and quietThe air is clean and freshWe produce a lot of our own food which is nice and healthyThere’s lots of hard work to do running a ranchbut we don’t mind

Of coursecountry life also has weak pointsWe feel isolated(孤立的)sometimestooespecially since the n  7  neighbors are almost l00 km awayOne more trouble is that we can’t get many things as easily as we do in the cityThere are no schoolssupermarkets or shopsand if we are ill we have to call the flying doctorAlthough life here can be difficultwe wouldn’t change it for the world
