Living in the countryside is better than living in the city. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

The places where people live affects greatly in their lifestyles and the living place is one of the very basic needs
for
Suggestion
of
people. People opine differently while choosing the living places. Some prefer and argue that
city
Suggestion
the city
is the best place to live at since it provides so many advantages over the rural area, but
other
plural of other; the people or things not already mentioned
others
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 countryside.
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 its inhabitants like the mobile police patrols, special forces, community police,
security
guards, traffic police etc. But in the
village
, the number of

too low compared to the overall population.
Moreover
, cities provide better treatment, hospitals, qualified doctors,

educational institutes, and amusement parks
etc which

etc., which
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 tend 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 a better environment, labs, teachers and that's why students in a
village
might not get a better education he/she deserves. If we consider the entertainment facilities in a
city

city, then
then
citizens of a
city
have so many options like theatre, 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. The
city
can provide
security
against visible
foes but

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
Suggestion
eating
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 countryside 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

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 a community is rare. In my case, I prefer to live in the
city
. I feel relaxed and comfortable staying in 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

countryside, but
get bored there if I stay more than 2/3 days because all of my necessary stuff to lead

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
