Read the dialogue about “Ideal Place to Live”. Mark the sentences TRUE or FALSE
according to the context.
When it comes to thinking of the ideal place to live two things come to mind. The big
bustling city or a small quiet town. My choice would be the small town for several reasons. One
it’s quiet. There are not a lot of people which can help cut down on crime and violence. Third
there are a lot of different sights and sounds that you don’t get to see nor hear in a big city. Last
but not least you normally have a better school system in small towns.
Population in the big city can be overwhelming to some individuals. That’s why I would
choose the small town. The town in is small enough that you can get to know your neighbors.
That can help you notice if something is not right or out of the norms.
Sights and sounds of the small town are like those of a fairy tale if you’ve lived in a big
city your whole life. You can actually lay out at night look at the stars. Listen to the stream run
pass your house. Watch an owl fly through the air looking for prey. On bright moonlit winter
night you could even catch a herd of deer walking thru your yard. In the big city you rarely ever
have that kind of opportunity to see those things.
