Advantages and disadvantages
1. Advantages and disadvantages of living in a city and in the countryside
A lot of people decide to move to the countryside nowadays. However, there are still many people
who prefer stay in the town and say that they couldn't live anywhere else. So which place is better to live?
Let's think about both of them.
I would like to start with the advantages and disadvantages of the big city life. Living in such a big city
has a lot of advantages. There is a big offer how to spend free time. There are a lot of theatres, concerts
and other ways of entertainment. There is always a lot to do and visit! There are a lot of possibilities of
shopping. In various shopping centres and galleries you can buy whatever you want. What is more, there
are a lot of working places in a city. Many big international companies have their locations in the cities, so
it is much easier to find a job in a big city. Moreover, the public transport is developed quite well, so the
commuting to work isn't a problem. On the other hand, there are some disadvantages of living in a big
city. Cities are very crowded. Everywhere there are crowds: on the pavements and in the buses. What is
more, the traffic is heavy and city's car parks are always very full. Sometimes it is very difficult to get
from a given place to another. It may take hours! Moreover, the other disadvantage is the safety in a city,
but actually the lack of safety. There is a big crime rates in cities. So you have to be very careful at nights
when you leave your home.
I think that in the country the problem of crime isn't so big. There aren't so many people and they
usually know each other well. The possibility of robbery or other crime is relatively lower. Life in the
countryside is more peaceful and the life is also slower. What is more, it is less stressful. There isn't any
time pressure and the traffic conditions are better. A lot of places you may reach on foot.
The city offers a lot: there are huge buildings, skyscrapers or some historic monuments. On the other
hand, in the countryside there are a lot of breathtaking sceneries, space and other amazing places such as
forests, lakes or mountains. Moreover, people in the countryside are quite different than people living in
the city: they are relaxed, friendly and family-oriented. People in the city are like ants. They are always in
hurry, busy and out of time. In the country people enjoy lives and take pleasure in their daily activities. As
a disadvantage of living in the countryside we may consider the commuting problems. People who stay in
the countryside often have to work in the nearest cities, so it may take a lot of time to get to it. However,
the living costs in the country are much lower, the variety of products in shops is smaller.
To sum up I would like to say that both countryside and city have some advantages and disadvantages.
Both city and country may be a good place to live. However I will stay in the city till I retire. Then I

3. The advantages and disadvantages of television
Nowadays many people all over the world spent most of their free time watching television; but since
its appearance, television has brought to man many advantages as well as disadvantages.
First, television plays an important role in our daily activities: it keeps us informed of all current
affairs in the world. Events through television are more vivid than those through books and magazines.
Second, television helps us enrich our spiritual lives. Our knowledge is broadened in many
ways.Through language teaching programs, we can learn the language we like such as: English, French,
German, Chinese, Japanese and so on. We can become skilful and clever at doing jobs, making cakes or
arranging flowers through practical courses taught on television.
Finally, television is a source of recreation. Humorous stories and funny films bring us minutes of
relaxation after a hard day’s work. For me, sitting comfortably in an arm-chair to watch an international
football match on television is more interesting than having to queue for tickets at a crowded stadium.
Apart from its advantages, however, television also brings lots of disadvantages to viewers too.
First, television viewers gradually become passive in their action. Television may be a splendid media
of communication, but it prevents us from communicating with each other or with the outer world. The
world seen through television is only the restricted one: It separates us from the real world.
Second, television, with its fascinating power, makes people of all ages sink into oblivion: whole
generations are growing up addicted to the telly. Pupils and students are so absorbed in television that they
neglect their school activities. Food is left uneaten, homework undone and lessons unprepared.
Housewives are so keen on watching television that they neglect their duties toward their husbands and
their children. Instead of watching television, we may use the time for a real family hour. Without the
distraction of television, we may sit around together after dinner and actually talk to one another to know
and like each other better.
Finally, the evil influence of television on the young generation is inevitable; it encourages them to
commit crimes. Spectacles of sadism and violence on television lead them to robbery, theft, rape and
murder.
In a nutshell, television is useful to us when we know how to use it: Be careful not to overindulge
ourselves in it and use it in a discerning manner.

Advantages and disadvantages

There is nothing quite like the cultural offerings of most large universities and if you get the
opportunity I hope you will take the time to stop and experience some of the wonderful things that being
in a university community present you with an opportunity to experience.
Research opportunities. On a university level you will have the opportunity to participate in research
projects with certain professors if your prove yourself worthy and express an interest. This is something
that isn't as likely on the community college level as most professors in a community college are dedicated
to teaching rather than research. You will find that the experience of working on a large-scale research
project is unlike anything you are likely to experience again if you ever get the chance.
Confidence. There is nothing quite like a college degree from a university to help you become a more
confident person both personally and professionally. This is something that really can't be achieved on the
community college level but can only be experienced by getting a degree from a university.
If you lack confidence when dealing with others or in your career, I hope that you will find that your
university education is just the thing to help you feel more confidence on all levels of your life.
These are just a small sampling of the many benefits of attending a university over a community
college education. I hope you will carefully consider these when making your decision about which is best
for your personal education needs.
