Present a written argument or a case to an educated reader with no
specialized knowledge of the following topic:
Some people think that cities are the best places to live. Others prefer
to live in a rural area. Compare the advantages and disadvantages of living in
the city to living in the country side.
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your
experience.
You should write at least 250 words.
Model Answer 1:
The places where people live affects greatly in their lifestyles and living places is one of the very basic needs for people. People opine differently while choosing the living places. Some prefer and argue that city is the best place to live at since it provides so many advantages over the rural area, but other think that villages are the best places to live a good life. Both places have advantages and disadvantages.

Some prefer and argue that city is the best place to live at since it provides so many advantages over the rural area, but other think that villages are the best places to live a good life. Both places have advantages and disadvantages.
It is true that a city offers so many opportunities and advantages those
are absent in a country side. For instance, the modern transportation and
communication systems are better in any city compared to a village. In a city
people have access to many different transportation systems and have latest
technologies to communicate; like cellular phones, internet, fax etc. Moreover
when a new technology arrives at the country it is first introduced in the city
area and usually 2/3 years later to the village. Secondly, cities provide
better security to it's inhabitants like the mobile police patrols, special
forces, community polices, security guards, traffic-polices etc. But in the
village the number of security force persons are too low compared to the over
all population. Moreover, cities provide better treatment, hospitals, qualified
doctors, better educational institutes, and amusement parks etc which are
really inevitable to lead a better life. In many cases those facilities are
absent or rare in a village. In my opinion the reason for why most people trend
to live in a city is the vast opportunities of jobs. Most of the corporate
offices, industries, factories, government offices, garments and manufacturing
industries are either situated in a city or close to the city. People have much
more employment opportunities in a city than a village. On the contrary, people
living in a village, are often forced to do a job that is not suitable at all
for him since the job opportunity is so narrow there. Again, schools or
colleges are not equipped with better environment, labs, teachers and that's
why students in a village might not get better education he/she deserves. If we
consider the entertainment facilities in a city then citizens of a city has so
many options like theater, park, art gallery, museum, amusement parks,
libraries etc. But people in the villages have only TV or books and very little
facilities to spend leisure time.
On the other hand, Villages offer many invaluable advantages those are
completely absent in the cities. First of all, someone living in a village can
get fresh air and water. There is no intense pollution with smoke,
Carbon-DI-oxide, Carbon-mono-oxide, Nitrous-Oxide and people living in a
village are less prone to suffer diseases like asthma, bronchitis etc. City can
provide security against visible foes but it causes people to face some
invisible and dangerous enemies like toxic and polluted air, water and
environment. Secondly, people of villages live much nearer to the nature and
breathe in the fresh air, as well as eat fresh foods, vegetables, fruits
collected directly from the garden. On the contrary vegetables, foods, fruits
in the cities are normally stored and mixed with preservatives and can cause
serious harms to the health. The living cost in a country side is much lesser
than that of a city. The density of population in a village is much less than
a city and village people are naturally grow up their personal
relationship among all people and live like a real community and take care of
each other. While in the city people do not know even who live in the next door
and personal relationship in community is rare.
In my case, I prefer to live in the city. I feel relaxed and comfortable
staying at my own city. There are lots of facilities I can't deny are presented
in my city and those are the invaluable part of my lifestyle. Moreover I like
to lead a busy and challenging life and want to be connected with the world. I
enjoy visiting country side but get bored there if I stay more than 2/3 days
because all of my necessary stuffs to lead my as usual life are absent there.

Model Answer 2:
Whether cities are better than rural area or visa-versa is a contentious question, it depends on one's choice, as to, what they prefer. Both cities and rural areas have their pros and cons. Rural area have quaint environment whereas there is always something fascinating about big cities.
Cities generally have better infrastructure, education system and advance health care facilities. You get to meet people from all walks of life, learn to coexist with people from different ethnicity, race, caste and culture; hence you become more tolerant, open minded and start respecting each other differences. Whereas, country side people are less tolerant, caste system still prevails and the powers lies with certain group of people. If you see, today in India, Love marriages /inter caste marriages are very common in cities, whereas people are being murdered in the name of honour in rural areas. Gender inequality is very evident in rural area, where women are being restricted only to household chores, and do not have much say in decision making, but in cities both are treated equally. It is not uncommon to see people migrating to cities for better jobs, better education.
People in the cities are always under tremendous pressure and stress, they always have to be up to date with technologies and hence there is no time to relax. Recently studies have shown surge in number of cases of heart attacks, which is due to increase in stress level. People in cities are constantly exposed to high level of pollution, adulterated food and chemically grown vegetables, which adversely affects their health, owing to which the average life of people living is cities is less than people living in rural area. Increased cases of obesity, suicides, diabetes is also resulting of stress and unhealthy living. Rural areas on other hand have no or very less pollution, pure food item and less stress, people have more time for themselves and their families.
To sum up, I think both cities and rural areas have their own charm. Cities have more busy and hectic life but have better facilities, rural area on the contrary have more relaxed, laid back lifestyle but lacks in up to date technologies like computers and international standard of healthcare and education system.

Model Answer 3:
Many people consider living in cities and they think that this is more advantageous while other group prefer live in countryside as they find it as a better alternative. Living in a city and in an urban area both has their advantages and disadvantages.
Many people consider living in cities and they think that this is more advantageous while other group prefer live in countryside as they find it as a better alternative. Living in a city and in an urban area both has their advantages and disadvantages.
First of all, living in a city is very stressful as the life is very
busy and competitive there. Cities have lot more vehicles, industries and a
large population and that pollutes the environment which is very harmful for
the health. It is particularly tough for low earning people as the expenses in
living in a city is always higher. People suffer from many health problems that
live in city and especially they suffer a lot in the old ages. Recently I have
read a book and this book reveals some surprising facts about living in a city.
I was pretty surprised to find that ''people who live in country sides have
more life expectancy than live in an urban area.''
On the other hand, city life offers numerous facilities and
opportunities compared to the living in urban area. For instance, job
opportunity and to run small businesses have better prospects in a city than in
countryside. People can easily find a new job in case s/he loses a job and
there are many other earning prospects in a city that could not be found in a
village. For economically solvent people, city offers many social and
entertainment facilities like Cineplex, sports event in stadiums, amusement
parks, museum etc. Opposite to this, rural areas do not offer many
opportunities for social life and lacks the entertainment facilities. Also,
people can’t purchase everything they need from a village market and markets
are very rare in most of the urban areas. Regarding this, I would like to
mention my own experience that I had few days back. I went to a rural area
called Tillo and I had my cell phone damaged there. I could not find any phone
servicing center there and I had to o to the city to have it repaired.
In conclusion, both the cities and rural areas have their advantages and
disadvantages.

Our earth is home to around six billion people living all around the globe, many of them are urbanites and other ruralites. One line of thought of society states that it’s beneficial to live in urban areas, however others stand opposite to it. But this thought is gyrated by many reasons.
Our earth is home to around six billion people living all around the globe, many of them are urbanites and other ruralites. One line of thought of society states that it’s beneficial to live in urban areas, however others stand opposite to it. But this thought is gyrated by many reasons.
The urban society provides great means of basic amenities necessary for
living life. We can find lot schools and other education institutions in cities
where the tiny tots make their future and turn into better future civilians. On
the contrary side the students from villages come to the cities to have
education. Health facilities are also found in abundance in urban areas. People
from rural area whenever have any serious health issues rush to the urban areas
to avail these facilities. Apart from this the vast amount of transports
facilities have made life immensely easy to live in urban areas. On the
flipside the villagers have great difficulty in transport as proper means are
not present and if present the roads are not proper to run them as they are
never properly sanitized. The facilities of shopping malls and supermarkets
have helped to gain access to necessary items under one roof easily decreasing
our time utility.
However, if take a glance at rural society, we will be able to find lush
green fields, fresh air and pure environment which is highly polluted in the
cities. The villagers have healthy lifestyle which is very scant in urban
areas. People of rural areas are more socialized where as that of urban areas
are mammon worshippers, always running to make both ends meet. Parents of urban
society have very less time due to which they are slowly drifted in oblivion,
whereas the children of rural society share a great bond with their parents.
Crime rate is far less in rural parts as compared to urban where crime is found
in every nook and corner of the society.
At last keeping in mind all the above said points we can conclude that
living in any part has both benefits and drawbacks however, it’s totally
subjective choice that which society cater our needs better.

Model Answer 5:
In modern society some people like to live in city area and few enjoy an open countryside to live. There are some blessings and drawbacks in both sites. Many people of today’s society are of the opinion that living in cities is better than living in rural area while others oppose this concept but my inclination is toward the formers.
On one hand it is believed that city life has significantly various advantages in contrast to rural life. The most vital point for the demand which can initially be mentioned is that all services are easily reachable in city area. Such as most of the major educational institute, hospital, bank all are generally situated in city area. So city dwellers can get these services within sort period rather than who lives in villages. For example we used to stay in villages but when we were in grade six our parents sent us to town for better education. What’s more city people can enjoy their life with different amusing activities called as theater, cultural activities and visit nice restaurant. But in village there is no such place where villagers can animate their free time so life is so boring. A further point is that there are a lot of working opportunities in commercial area. To clarify this matter people can find any suitable job in factory, hotel, restaurant, shopping mall and run their livelihood, besides also enhance the economic growth of any countries.
On the other hand there are some negative sides to live in town and have some positive points to live in country side. What can be cited first regarding this is city life are more stressful due to its busy atmosphere and noisy heavy traffics while country side is peaceful place to live because of its quiet and calm environment, villagers can breathe in open air and enjoy the tranquility of the environment.
In a nutshell taking all the aforementioned pros and cons into account I personally admire to live in town.

Model Answer 6:
Peoples have different opinions while choosing their living place. Some people think that villages are better place to live, while other think cities are preferred candidate to choose for living. In my opinion that there are several reasons to believe that city are best place to live, because they provides comfortable life.
Peoples have different opinions while choosing their living place. Some people think that villages are better place to live, while other think cities are preferred candidate to choose for living. In my opinion that there are several reasons to believe that city are best place to live, because they provides comfortable life.
First of all city provides better education and career prospects .The
renowned and excellent schools are built in the cities because most of the
population live in cities. These schools employ the qualified teachers to
provide education to the children. A child who gets education in a city is
considered the better one because of his broad range of experience and deep
knowledge. The government and private businessman build universities and
colleges in the city to improve the learning and skills in students. Various
laboratories use the advanced appliances instruments that aid the students in
higher education especially in research and this facility is mostly available
in city area. I have learned to operate IR spectrophotometers from Punjab
University which is situated in Chandigarh City and cities are mostly the hub
of education.
Moreover, city provides better prospects of life. The shops, malls are
built in city to attract customers from large area. The important home
appliances like fan, refrigerator, car etc. are available in cities at
reasonable cost. Government offices are built in cities. Living in cities can
help avoiding the dwellers to travel from village to city to do important official
works. City also provides sources of entertainment. Many festivals, carnivals
are organized in the cities. Even peoples from the rural area come to city to
watch their favorite movies in Cinema Hall and Theatres. Sports stadium,
training centers are located in cities. City life offers too many facilities
that are absent in rural lives.
The most important thing is that, the city provides better medical
services. Best hospitals, medical centers are built in big towns so that
majority of people can have medical facilities. In these centers expert
doctors, specialist like neurosurgeons, heart surgeon works to treat peoples.
These medical centers not only use advance machines & instruments but also
offer operation theaters for different types of operations for critical
diseases. Cities are safe on health ground, and have well planned sanitation to
avoid spreading epidemic. Cities have lifesaving medical centers.
In summation, it is clear that city is the better place to live. The
city not only provides good education and civil life but also provides best
medical facilities.
