参考范文:
I grew up in a small town and then moved to a big city, so I have
experienced the good and bad sides of both. I never thought that I would like
living in a big city, but I was wrong. After ten years of living in one, I can't
imagine ever living in a small town again.
Small towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of
transportation. In a small town, you have to own a car to ensure a comfortable
living. You can't get around without one because there isn't any kind of public
transportation. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensive parking,
but there you have a choice of taking public transportation. It's not free, but
it's often cheaper than driving when you consider gas and time. Especially if
you don't have a car, you're better off in the city.
I love the excitement of big cities. Small towns have a slow pace. Large
cities mean you have to adapt to a variety of situations, like finding a new
route to work or trying a new restaurant. I enjoy that challenge very much.
Another pan of the excitement of city living is the variety of cultural
activities available. There is a wide assortment of theatre, music and dance
performances available in big cities. These things are rare in small ones.
The final thing I like about large cities is the diversity of the people.
The United States is made up of people of different races, religions, abilities,
and interests. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller
town. I think that living in an area where everyone was just like me would
quickly become boring.
Of course, security is a concern, and that's one area where small towns are
superior to big cities. Still, I would rather be a bit more cautious and live in
a large city than to feel secure but bored.
