VI. Choose the item among A, B, C or D that best answers each question about the passage.
Living in the country is something that people from the city often dream about.
However, in reality, it has both advantages and disadvantages.
There are certainly many advantages to living in the country. First, you can enjoy peace and
quietness. Moreover, people tend to be friendlier. A further advantage is that there is less
traffic, so it is safer for young children.
However, there are certain disadvantages or drawbacks to life outside the city. First, because
there are fewer people, you are likely to have few friends. In addition, entertainment is
difficult to find, particularly in the evening. Furthermore, the fact that there are fewer shops
and services means that it is hard to find jobs.
In short, it can be seen that the country is more suitable for some people than others. On the
whole, it is often the best for those who are retired or who have young children. In contrast,
young people who have a career are better provided in the city.
