Q. Tell me about the countryside outside your town/city. Answer:
I live in Hanoi, the bustling capital city of my country. But, our
countryside, at least 60-70 kilometres outside of my city, is peaceful and
has a very tranquil atmosphere, surrounded by amazingly refreshing
landscape. You will also get to see shades of green, covering the entire
landscape, as far as your eyes can see, so much so that you will not
ever want to leave!
Q. Would you like to live in the countryside or a metropolitan city in the future? [Why?] Answer:
In the future, I would want to live in the countryside mainly
because I love nature, and I like to stay close to Mother Nature. Besides,
I firmly believe that living in the countryside is healthier than living in
the city as it would allow me to breathe fresh air and drink fresh and
uncontaminated water. Finally, I love the simplistic lifestyles that people
in the countryside have.
Q. Why do some people move to a city from a rural area? Do you know someone who did so? Answer:
I would assume that some people move to a city from a rural
area primarily because it allows them to have better income
opportunities. Besides, some people would move to a city because they
become attracted to the “flashy” city life in order to enjoy life more.
Finally, some people would move to a city because of better educational
opportunities. For example, I know of one of my distant cousins who
moved to Hanoi to attend a good technical university a few years ago.
