Read the following passage and write the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the following questions.
Living in a big city has both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, cities are centers of culture and
education. There are numerous museums, art galleries, and universities that offer great learning opportunities. Cities also
provide more job opportunities with higher salaries than rural areas. Moreover, public transport systems in most big cities
are well-developed, making it convenient for people to get around. You can easily find modern facilities like hospitals,
shopping malls, and entertainment centers.
On the other hand, city life can be very stressful. The cost of living is often much higher, and traffic jams are a daily
problem. This can lead to a lot of wasted time and frustration. Furthermore, big cities often suffer from serious air and
noise pollution, which can negatively affect residents' health. Finding a quiet and peaceful place to relax can be a real
challenge.
People have to weigh the pros and cons carefully before deciding whether city life is right for them.( the pros and cons :
