Living in the country Today some people sell their small flats in the cities, buy houses in the
countryside and move to live there in order to change their lifestyle. But before you
make this decision, let us consider advantages and disadvantages of the living in the
village.
On the living one hand, there are plenty of benefits in village life.
First of all the environment is much healthier in the village. The air is fresh, there are
no traffic jams and the number of cars is much smaller. The noise level is also lower
and usually after 10 p.m. it becomes very quiet.
Secondly, the house in the country can be far cheaper than a flat in the city. So you
can have a very spacious place to live with some private territory around it and
maybe even a couple of sheds. The price also depends on how far the place is from
the city and whether it has schools, hospitals and shops. So it can be very
convenient for a family with children.
Besides, you private plot of land gives you freedom to organize it the way you like.
Some people choose to grow vegetables, others use this place to construct a
playground for children or organize a nice place for barbecue. It will be more
pleasant for you to spend time outdoors on your own land.
But on the other hand there are also some drawbacks in the life of a villager.
First of all, if you have a private house, you should understand that trouble with
leaking roof, electricity, heating system, water supply and so on is now your
responsibility and you should take good care of your property to avoid possible
problems.
Moreover, it may be difficult to find a job in the village. And if you want to work in the
city and live in the village, you should think over all possible transport problems. It
may take you several hours to get to your workplace or you may face traffic
congestion
It is also important to check what facilities are there in the village. If the family has
small children, it is important to have a good kindergarten and a school nearby. If
you love sports, you'll want to have a swimming pool or a gym near your house,
All in all, life in the country is a great opportunity to lead a healthy lifestyle and live in
a spacious house, but before you make your choice think carefully about all pros and
cons.

In my opinion, in a global sense, we're all standing on the threshold of a good future, because our current opportunities are great. We are free and can themselves build their lives. Science deepens knowledge of the world, improved technology, develop communication tools. All this can help to ensure that humanity will solve all existing problems and will build a happy future for all.
My world of the future is not really a fantastic pictures from the movies. I would like, that in the future we have solved the problems of ecology, heavy diseases of poverty. So that plants and factories pollute the environment, everywhere planted trees, protected plants and animals. In the future we need to live in a clean and comfortable cities and ride safe transport. People must do everything to preserve nature, and besides yourself to eat healthy and to breathe fresh air, to work in normal conditions. All this will make us more healthy and help prevent disease.
And also, I hope that people in the world of the future will be happier. They will have more free time, so that they are able to do what you love.
As for me, I realize that no one alone can't make the world a better place. So everyone has to work on himself, to develop the necessary quality. Learn, acquire a profession, to expand their horizons. And in order to be happy, the man needs not only of space technology, and the warmth and friendship of close friends. If we all are kind to each other, then our world will be a better place right now.∞
