TOPIC: CITY AND VILLAGE / Высказывания ОГЭ задание 2, задание 3 (Сочинения ЕГЭ английский язык)

Introduction: I would like to give a talk about living in a big city and in a village. Of course, every place has its advantages and disadvantages, so one should choose where to live according to his or her preferences.

– What are the advantages of living in the village?

For example, one of the main advantages of living in a village is fresh air. There are no traffic jams or high prices. Moreover, in country it is possible to own a separable house and keep domestic animals and birds, so you are able to eat organic food. What is more, countryside provides quietness of provincial life.

– What are the advantages of living in a big city?

But many people prefer city life to living in a village.

The main reason is that city offers different facilities such as educational and recreational. In addition, city provides hospital centres where qualified doctors work. And, certainly, in the city people never get bored.

– Which of the ways of living do you prefer and why?

Frankly speaking, city life is more attractive for me. I really want to get a good education and to find a well-paid job, and country life doesn’t provide such opportunities. Furthermore, city offers wider choice of entertainments.

– What are the disadvantages of living in a big city?

However, for every plus there is a minus. For example, city life is very expensive and you may not be able to afford many of the things that city offers. In addition, despite all the crowds it is still possible to feel lonely in the city. What is more, air in the city is often polluted and it takes a lot of time there to get somewhere because of traffic jams and crowded noisy streets

Conclusion: All in all, tastes differ. If you live either in a big city or in a small town or even in a village, you will find pros and cons of such a place. Neither place can be ideal. That’s all I wanted to say.
