Our cities are getting bigger and bigger as more people move from the country to the cities. There are lots of reasons why they do this—mostly it is easy to find work, because all the big companies are in the cities and they need lots of people to work there. When there are lots of people living and working in a city, they need things like restaurants, shops, hospitals and schools. There are more jobs that people need to do. There will be lots of transport in the city to move all the people around. Everything you want will be found in the city: government offices, museums and art galleries, cinemas, big restaurants and parks.
Unfortunately(遺憾地) the city is much busier, more expensive, and more dangerous than the country. The air is not as fresh as in the country because of all the cars and trucks on the roads. There are so many people that are not as friendly——you cannot get to know everyone as you do in the country, and people may get lonely. You do not have much room in the city——most people live in apartments——not houses, and they do not have gardens or lots of space, and because of all the people there is also a lot of noises.
The country is much cheaper to live and there are less dangerous people than you find in cities. Perhaps the best thing is that you can have a big house with a garden and it will be very quiet, but there are not many jobs or services there. There are also not many shops, schools or hospitals. It is hard to get around in the country.
Every person is different, but more and more people are choosing to live in cities because there are so many jobs to do there. What do you think about the city?
小題1: Are our cities getting bigger than before?
小題2:Why do people move to the city?
小題3:What is the best thing about the country?
小題4:What is the problem with the country?
小題5:What does the writer think about cities?

小題1:Yes, they are.
小題1:Because they want to find work there.
小題1: Big houses with gardens.
小題1:Few jobs and services.
小題1: There are lots of things to do for people in the cities.

小題1:從文章的第一句話:Our cities are getting bigger and bigger as more people move from the country to the cities.可知答案是Yes, they are.
小題1:從第一段的句子;There are lots of reasons why they do this—mostly it is easy to find work, 可知答案是;Because they want to find work there.
小題1:從第三段的句子:Perhaps the best thing is that you can have a big house with a garden and it will be very quiet,可知答案是:Big houses with gardens.
小題1:從第三段的句子:but there are not many jobs or services there.可知答案是 Few jobs and services.
小題1:從最后一段的句子:but more and more people are choosing to live in cities because there are so many jobs to do there. 可知答案是There are lots of things to do for people in the cities.

The nose is important for everyone. It can help a person breathe and smell. In fact,it can also be used in many popular expressions.
Some people can lead other people by the nose. For example, if a wife leads her husband by the nose, she can ask him to do whatever she wants him to do.
Some people are said to be hard--nosed. They will not change their opinions of anything.
If some people keep their noses out of other people’s business, they do not interfere

If someone works hard, he can keep his nose clean or stay out of trouble. How ever, more problems will be caused if a person looks down his nose at others or some things.
