Modern city
Good morning everyone!Today, I’m here to show my opinion about modern city.Attention please, my friends!I have a problem, how many people present are there who are brought up in cities? Please put up your hands.Ok.点名。I want to ask, what is your upstairs neighbors’ family name? And, how many people are there in the family downstairs?回答。Ok, thank you.As we all know, modern cities provide much convenience for us.You can buy your clothes,buy your food, your drinks, your daily neceity, almost everything you need in supermarkets which can be seen here and there in modern cities.You can go to the amusement park if you want to relieve yourself.You can go to the library to refer to some books if you have something beyond your understanding.You can attend all kinds of training claes if you want to acquire some profeional knowledge.You can take a bus or a taxi to where you want to go.In a word, modern cities can facilitate what you wear, what you eat, what you live in, and how you go out.Everything has two sides, so do modern cities.First of all, modern cities separate us from environment.You see, we are enclosed by concrete and steel buildings.In summer, boring sun shine directly on these buildings, thus it’s just like being in a stove to live in them.In winter, streets made in concrete covered by snow can be so smooth that many accidents occur.What’s more, modern cities product so much noise.Stand on the summit of a tall building and look down, that, so many vehicles and so much noise!What is worse is that so many vehicles product so much smelly gas which can pollute the air in a great
deal.Certainly, air pollution is mostly due to factories around cities.What would you like in summer: to sit or lie on graland under a big tree or sit under the shelter of tall buildings? What would you like in winter: to listen the music caused by stepping on the deep snow in a small forest or to smooth with caution on the snow-covered concrete streets? What would you like: to listen to the songs of birds and smell the fragrance of flowers or to listen to the noise of vehicles and smell their wasteful gas? Also, the relationship between one and another become more and more indifferent.People living in cities who don’t know what their neighbors’ family name is are not minority, for they are rushing to and from their work and there’s no time to communicate with their neighbors.I was brought up in rural areas.When I was just a little boy, in summer, I can swim in a clear river, I can sit under a big tree and hook fishes;in winter, I can take my dog with me to run after rabbit in wheat land, I can clear a strip and throw some seeds to make a trap to catch birds then set them free.So compared with living in a city, I should say I mi more my childhood in rural areas.That’s all for my report.Thank you.2009-11-26
