David: How do you like living in the big
city?
Maria: There are many things that are better than living in
the country!
David: Can you give me some examples?
Maria: Well, it certainly is more interesting than the
country. There is so much more to do and see!
David: Yes, but the city is more dangerous than
the country.
Maria: That's true. People in the city aren't as open and
friendly as those in the countryside.
David: I'm sure that the country is more relaxed,
too!
Maria: Yes, the city is busier than the country. However,
the country is much slower than the city.
David: I think that's a good thing!
Maria: Oh, I don't. The country is so slow and boring! It's
much more boring than the city.
David: How about the cost of living? Is the
country cheaper than the city?
Maria: Oh, yes. The city is more expensive than the
country.
David: Life in the country is also much healthier
than in the city.
Maria: Yes, it's cleaner and less dangerous in the country.
But, the city is so much more exciting. It's faster, crazier and
more fun than the country.
David: I think YOU are crazy for moving to the
city.
Maria: Well, I'm young now. Maybe when I'm married and have
children I'll move back to the country.
