Hello folks,

I wish you a happy and restful holiday weekend. But remember, you need to respond to this blog (and don't forget your reflection about your book). Many of you still have not responded to the first blog. These are important. They are graded.

Anyway, here is the next prompt. Please respond by Tuesday.

In one paragraph, descibe the advantages and disadvantages of living in a big city, and tell your reader where you would prefer to live--the city or the country--and why you would prefer to live there. You must have a topic sentence and then three or four supporting sentences.

OK.

See you Tuesday

Joe

  2. I think that living in a big city has many advantages. You can meet a lot of people every day, go out with them to anywhere,because there are many places to know and have a great time with your friends,also you have a lot of buildings, parks, games, discoteques, universities, they are beautiful and great places to have fun. However, living in a big city could be terrible sometimes, because it's so big that people never see to other people, in the subway everybody fights with others, and this kind of life is faster than in other places. To sum up, I prefer to live in big city because i'm used to live in a city and i like to live in a city.

  3. Live in a big city can be stressful but, also advantageous. First, because you can found variety in lots of things like stores, shops, places to visit and stuffs. That’s something that the small cities doesn’t have, not always. But, to live in the country or in a small city, is less stressful: you don’t have to cope with huges quantys of people on the bus or the subway. I would prefer to live in the country, is more quiet but, until now I’m living fine here in the big city.

  4. could you live in a city without places of security and health? well i couldn't. Those are advantages more important, because are very useful for everybody. If you live in cities without these services, maybe you can't live. therefore, is more convenient live in a city. However, some peoples not like live in cities, because there are many deliquency and drugs. On the other hand, we have the use of public transportation more useful.

  5. If you live in a big city you could enjoy it, but sometimes you could hate it. The advantages of living in a city are: first, everything is relatively nearby. You can go to the edge of the city by bus, by subway, or even by both of them. Second, living in a big city means lots and lots of funny places where you can go. You just need to find a good place to relax or have fun and go there. The only disadvantage could be the pollution and the noise of cars and people make. I prefer to be here at the city because I think that country side life is bored. I've ever lived here at Santiago, which is a big city, and I like it.

  6. I prefer living in the city - in Santiago or Valparaiso-. First, because I might not live in a place that was rural. The field is not my favorite place, because there are cows and hens, there isn`t Mall, the cellular one does not have sign, there is no good programming in the television, etc... Second, the city has all the comforts and facilities that one wants to find. In the city there are shops of all types, services of health; this one everything to hand. Finally, I said that also, I might live in Valparaiso, because it is a beautiful place, with sea - I love the sea - it's a historical and magic place.

  7. To live in a great city has advantages and disadvantages. The advantages about to live in a big city are all the places like mall, big parks of amusements, museums, big stores where to buy clothes and many technological products. Also, in these cities there are big events like concerts, art samples and important people's conferences. The disadvantages are environmental contamination, acoustics and visual because in the big cities there are many cars, buses, etc. For this cause there is noise. The visual environmental is for cause of the announcements of stores.

  8. Hi, I'm Carlos on Felipe's Blog

    As far as I know, everything in a city is easy to do than country side or remote places. My experience tells me: "In Santiago, you have the comfort of home". It is over when you go to vacations. Everything is nice in your trip, but in my case, I have to walk a mile to make a phone call, or to have a party; I need to climb up a hill to arrive the disco. In our city, everything is on next corner. But it haven't the charming of the nature. So I prefer my city, because is very difficult for me, to get used to the country side.
