Question
Work in groups. Discuss and have a debate on life in bustling cities and life in calm towns.
Solution
Introduction: Village life refers to the living conditions of rural people. City life refers to the life of urban people. There is a wide difference between village life and city life. Both the city and town or village serve functional purpose in their own way. The town feeds and clothes people and the city provides learning and culture. There is a wide gap in the amenities Of life between the city and the town.
A student about city life: Dear students, I would like to say that city life is full of glamour and is very fascinating. There are magnificient multistoreyed buildings, broad roads, shopping malls, multiplexes, electric lights, etc. In large cities there are mills, factories and industries too. All these dazzle the eyes of new comers to the city. Here, there is novelty in everything. The daily routine of life is different. People spend their evening in a park, a library, shopping mall or a cinema hall. Then there are football, tennis and cricket matches, public meetings, speeches by eminent persons, etc. All these are entirely absent in villages. So I conclude saying that city life is fascinating and provide livelihood for a larger number of poor people.
Second student about town life: I don’t agree with you. Though Town life is plain and simple, here there is no din and bustle of the city. Everything is calm and quiet. People are in direct touch with nature. Most of their time passes in looking after fields and cattle. They are religious and pious. They enjoy pure air. They get pure and unadulterated food grains, fruits, milk and milk products. They get fresh vegetables and fruits. So I conclude that village or town life is a calm, healthy and pleasant life.
