5.23独立Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People can take care of their family members better when they live in big cities than in the countryside.
Such a question often poses in front of many adults of china which is a tremendously urbanized country in recent twenty years: big cities or countryside, which one I think is a adapt place for our parents to live when they are old. It is undeniable that many people cast their preference to countryside for the fresher air, the more beautiful natural scenery, but overwhelming majority of people, me included, believe the big cities are much more wonderful place for us to take care of our family members.
To begin with, big cities mean more convenient living circumstance. There are many kinds of advance and well-equipped places and facilities, such as hospitals, schools, libraries and so on. All of them are of big importance to the old and young who need the attention most in a family. Without those, they can not live safe and happily, even sometime be dangerous. For instance, my hometown is a small remote country,. Several yeas ago, a distant relative was found be poisoned by carbon monoxide released from the gas stove. It took three hours for her son to drive to a hospital in the downtown area. Though the doctor did their utmost to save her, she died. The doctor said if she can be sent into hospital sooner, maybe she could survive. Obviously, convenient facilities and public institution in the big cities play a significantly important role in our life.
Furthermore, big cities own much more intense and artistic cultural atmosphere which is our family numbers can benefit from. Either hardware of software is better in cities. Only in cities can we find so many theaters, libraries, cinemas and different kinds of clubs. Both the old and the young can find what they are interested in and enjoy then. A case in point is my grandmother. Every night, she went to dance in the public center with my neighbors. They are members of a famous dancing club. Thanks to that, she remains a good health. She loves her life in the old age.
Admittedly, there are some advantages in countryside which big cities can not compare with, such as the fresh air, fresh vegetables and fruits, harmony social atmosphere and so on. Nevertheless, all of those are not as necessary as what the cities provide. In addition, people living in big cities can also buy organic vegetables and fruits for their family members, go to park area to enjoy fresh air and go to clubs to make friends.
In conclusion, big cities are far more adequate and wonderful place to take care of our families to let them enjoy perfect life. When my parents get older, I will bring them to the city where I live in to make more accessible for me to look after them better. |
