A: its so relaxing, taking a walk in the country. The air is so fresh and clean.
B; would you like to live in the country? Im not sure Id like it.
A: I can see a lot of advantage and disadvantage. The problem is that, for me, each advantage has its own disadvantage.
B: what do you mean?
A: well, I hate the noise in the city, but I love being around lost of people. The problem is that you cant have lots of people and have peace and quiet. The tow5 just dont go together.
B: I see what you mean. I love being far away from a city, but I hate being so far away department stores and sports facilities.
A: people cant have it both ways. If you live in the country, it is often less convenient6. If you live in a city, it is noisy, buy theres more to do.
B; I would love to be surrounded by hills and streams. Theyre so much better to look at than concrete7, rows of parked cars and tall buildings.
A: I would love to hear the birds singing and feel the fresh breeze8 on my face. When the wind blows in the city, you get dust in your mouth and in your eyes.
B; the view from the hill is so beautiful and relaxing. Theres so sign of pollution. The village looks so peaceful.
A: just remember that in that village theres nothing to do. Theres not even a pub9 or restaurant. Theres just one small shop with a poor selection10 of goods.
B; youre right. I would have to travel to the city at least once a week to go shopping and see friends. I would hate living in the country!
