My name is Peter.I live in a small village.In my village,there aren't many cars or buses,and the streets are clean.I know all the neighbours and at the end of the day,we get together and talk.We go to bed early because there isn't much to do in the evening.There aren't any cinemas,museums or clubs.But the children often play in the streets or in nature.There is no noise,so we can hear a lot of beautiful sounds from nature like the birds singing and the rain pouring (倾泻).In the evening,we can see lots of beautiful stars in the sky.
My penfriend Ken lives in a big city.He says there are more workplaces in the city,better schools,nicer shops,finer restaurants and lots of cinemas and museums.Children can go to clubs and parks to enjoy themselves.I went to the city to visit Ken last month.He took me to a big shopping centre in the city and bought some nice gifts for my family.
“Which is better,the city or the village?” many of my classmates asked me when I came back.I'm not sure.The life in the city is quite different from the one in the village.But I know that I like the clean streets,friendly neighbours and fresh air in the village better.
