They may be right, but there's one thing they might not know. I feel (6. happy) ________ here than in a crowded and noisy city. Country folk are (7.friendly)_______ than city folk. I know every boy in my village. Life here is not as (8. fast) _________ as that in the city and I feel (9. safe) __________. Perhaps the (10. good)_________ place to grow up is the place where you feel at home.
II. Read the text carefully, then answer the questions.
Many people enjoy living in a big city because they think life is more exciting there. However,
I come from a small village and in my view, there are lots of benefits. The main reason I prefer
village life is because it’s very quiet, so I always feel calm when I’m here. Another reason is that
the air is so fresh and clean. We have more green spaces and bigger gardens, too. In addition, I
think the people here are friendlier. Personally, I’m interested in wildlife photography, so the
countryside is perfect for me.
The only downside is transport. I have an early start for a long Journey to school in Faro and
the school bus is always stopping to pick up more people. Also, it’s boring sometimes, but I enjoy
chatting to my friends. Fortunately, I’m learning to ride a moped. On balance, I disagree that city
life is better, as I think my village lifestyle is healthier and more relaxing. In spite of that, some of
my friends couldn’t cope with life in the country, so it comes down to personal opinion.
