Life in a big city or life in the country (Сочинения ЕГЭ английский язык)

Nowadays, a lot of people live in urban environment, as they believe that it is the most comfortable for life. Not everybody shares this attitude, though. In rural areas the population is not so dense and that is the reason why it is preferred by the others.

In my opinion, a megalopolis provides many advantages. Firstly, you have more opportunities for self-realization there. As a rule, in there are a lot of universities where one can get a good education and then find a well-paid job. Secondly, it is never boring in big cities with their parks, movie theaters, hobby groups, various diners and discos.

However, there are those who think otherwise. They believe that life in the countryside is much better because people there are much healthier owing to unharmed nature and organic food produced on the spot.

Nevertheless, I do not agree with the above argument though I have to admit that it makes some sense.

In fact, many industrial enterprises locate their waste treatment plants and landfills outside big cities in the areas close the countryside, thus polluting it. As a result, the products produced there are no better than anywhere else.

To sum up, big cities always provide a good chance for studying at prestigious educational institutions, which allows to achieve a high living standard in the long run. In addition, there are a lot of entertainments in cities where it is possible to forget about daily routine at least for some time.
