Don’t expect too much of him．After all, he is a child of intelligence． A．average ——青夏教育精英家教网—

　　Life in a big city is very different from life on a farm. A city is a place, where nightlife is 1 , neon(霓虹) lights are bright, and 2 is convenient. A farm is a place where 3 are quiet and peaceful, stars at night are bright, and department stores are 4 . To me, though, the biggest 5 is the people.

　　In a city, your 6 simply lives near you, sometimes only a few meters away. You might not even know his or her 7 . In the country, your neighbor might live a few kilometers away, 8 he or she is someone you know well, someone you 9 , someone you depend on to help when 10 is needed.

　　As a child, I lived 11 , and I remember a time when a neighbor needed help. He had a fire in his corn field, and 12 was too far away. The 13 of a corn crop would have been a disaster for him. However, the people from other farms in the area saw the 14 and they all dropped what they 15 and ran to help. My father was one who went to help. Using brooms, boots, and buckets of water, they stopped the fire 16 it did too much damage, and they 17 most of the crop.

　　 18 people are sometimes a little old-fashioned and unsophisticated(质朴无华的). Sometimes they have little trusting of 19 and outsiders. They don't 20 as many people in their lives as city people do, but when they become friends with someone, they are usually friends through thick and thin(同甘共苦的).
