Are big cities wonderful places? Are they terrible? There are many diffe-
rent ideas about this. My friend Santiago, for example, likes living in a
city. He is happy in crowded cities (having too many people). He loves
busy streets with many stores and many people. He likes a lot living in
city, its parks and restaurants.
Many people dont like big cities. They see very much population (people
living in a place) in cities, and they feel afraid. Many cities are growing
very fast. They are monster cities. (A monster is a big, terrible thing.)
In some countries, there arent any jobs in small towns. Many people
go to cities to work; 350,000 people go to Sao Paulo, Brazil, every year.
These cities are megalopolises. A megalopolis is a very large city. But
now there is a new word in English megacity.

Instructions
Using the techniques explained in the previous section, answer the questions below.
A. Hi! My names Jenny. Im 14 years old. I live in a big city called Medellin. I think life in a big city is fantastic. For example, I
have always lots of things to do and there are a lot of nice places to visit, like cinemas, shopping malls, museums. I love pop
music and there are usually pop concerts in the city. I go to the concerts with my friends. Im crazy about Chinese food, so
I often go to a Chinese restaurant with my parents.
B. One thing I dont like about the city is traffic. For instance, there are always lots of cars and buses in Medellin and it is
sometimes difficult to move around the streets. Also, there is much crime. My best friend Daniel lives in a small village near
Medellin. Daniel thinks life in the countryside is very nice. There is not traffic. People can work outdoors.
C. The countryside has many advantages. It is calm, silent and peaceful. Theres more oxygen in the air because there are a
lot of trees around. You can see wonderful flowers everywhere. There is a beautiful lake and a wonderful forest near Daniels
village. He usually goes to practice rowing (boat racing) in the lake.
D. Daniel often visits me. We do a lot of things together. For instance, we go to the cinema or to swim at Atanasio Girardot
Stadium swimming pool. I often visit Daniel, too. There, we do many things like walking in the forest or swimming in the lake
