009 some people prefer to live in a small town, others prefer to live in a big city. Which place would you prefer to live in? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.
As I was born in a big modern city, personally speaking, I prefer to live in a big city rather than a small town. Some might argue that people living in a big city have to face many problems, air pollution, traffic jam, noise, high pressure, just to name a few of them. Admittedly, living in a big city does bring some negative effects on people's day to day lives, but the bright sides it creates far outweigh the its drawbacks.

Admittedly, living in a big city does bring some negative effects on people's day to day lives, but the bright sides it creates far outweigh the its drawbacks. For one thing, living in a big city offers people there a better education opportunity than those who are not. The education system is much more advanced. From the kindergarten, primary school, middle school, high school then finally to college and university, living in a big city can provide one a systematic all round education that a small town can not offer. The courses that schools in a big city can provide cover a much wider range than that of a school in a small town. Also, the teachers in a big city are usually much more qualified than their counterparts who are living in a small town. Thus, the younger generation who are living in a big city has a better education to receive. For another, living in a big city offers people there a better job opportunity as well. Big cities, like Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, are much more developed than small towns. Those big cities, interacting with the west world, exchange the culture and traditions which makes the births of various new industries possible. Thus the new jobs opportunities are created, fostered, and developed. This phenomena, I suppose, rarely happens in a small town. Not only the new jobs should I mention, but the traditional jobs, such as construction work, cleaning work, texture work, selling work, I also should not ignore. The big cities also provide a multitude of opportunities of working positions in the traditional domain. Living in a big city usually makes one's life more meaningful and colorful. Theaters, cinemas, sports centers, theme parks, they are all excellent place to spend your spare time, refresh your body and soul from the high stress in the working, and add the essential fun to your fast paced city life. In the final analysis, living in a big city is far more suitable and feasible than living in a small town. As a city dweller, I can not even imagine how awkward and tedious it will be if I am living in a small town.
