Topic: Some people think that cities are the best places to live. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of living in a big city.
A megacity has attracted hundreds and thousands of people to come because people believe that the big
city
has the best resources
. However
, a big city
also
has some disadvantages. My reasons will be explained in the following paragraphs.
Let's talk about the advantages first
. First
, there are more job
opportunities in a big city
than in a small town. A big city
is invariably populous; therefore
, more jobs are demanded to deal with the enormous requests. Take my cousin as an example. Our town is a small city
next
to Shanghai
, and the job
market there is quite small; hence
, it is not easy to find a suitable place there. Nevertheless
, he moved to Shanghai
4
years old, and he found an ideal occupation there promptly. As a consequence, it can be concluded that the bigger the Change preposition
at 4
city
's scale, the more job
opportunities.
Second
, big cities consistently have the best resources
, such
as education resources
or medical resources
. For instance
, I grew up in China and it's well known that all the best universities and hospitals are located in either Beijing or Shanghai
. I have been to one of those best hospitals in Shanghai
once with my mother. The journey was exhausting because we took the train early to be there on time. Therefore
, I was thinking, were I to live in a big city
, everything would be easier.
On the other hand
, living in a big city
also
has some disadvantages. First
, life in a big city
is stressful. For instance
, every day you wake up, you need to think about how you can do better to keep your job
and not be fired. For children, the competition is also
fierce; they need to hard overly hard to get a place at a good university.
Second
, a big city
consistently is environmental-unfriendly. Take Beijing as an example; Beijing has severe air pollution nowadays, the sky in Beijing is enveloped by heavy smoke, and residents haven't seen stars for years. In addition
, people can suffer from illnesses, such
as coughing or dizziness from smoking that polluted air.
In conclusion, there are advantages and disadvantages of living in a megacity.Submitted by junyiwu029 on
