- A Choose the correct answer.
City versus countryside
Most of the differences between a city and the countryside are due to the large number of people who live in cities. For instance, because of the traffic in cities, we usually have things like 1 zebra crossings / paths so pedestrians will know where it is safe to cross the street. Cities also have a lot of high-rise buildings, like 2 office blocks / petrol stations. Shops are bigger too, which is why you tend to see lots of 3 department stores / roundabouts in cities. Also, because of the number of cars in cities, there are many 4 car parks / blocks of flats for people to leave their cars. On the downside, cities aren’t as 5 peaceful / busy as the countryside, and they can often be very 6 noisy / quiet. The huge number of cars also causes the air to be 7 polluted / green. Another problem with cities is the lack of green spaces. Because they are full of buildings, many 8 forests / valleys are located outside a city.
