The Disadvantage of Living in a City

　　Tired of the city life, some city-dwellers opt for city suburbs as their residence. They are flocking there to avoid people-in the city, wherever you look, it's people, people, people.

　　It's not strange for them complain about the living conditions in the city. It takes ages for a bus to get to you because the traffic on the roads has virtually come to a standstill. The subways which leave or arrive every few minutes are packed: an endless procession of human sardine tins. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are at a premium. Tall buildings blot out the sun. The flow of traffic goes on continuously and the noise never stops.

　　Decades of years ago, people were crazy about crowding into the city. Now more and more people believe that only a madman would choose to live in a large modern city.

　　居住在城市的弊端

　　因為對城市生活感到厭倦。一些住在城里面的人都渴望搬到郊區(qū)居住。他們涌向那兒目的是為了避開人群。因為在城里無論你往哪兒看到處都是人。

　　人們抱怨城里面的居住條件是不奇怪，由于馬路上的交通幾乎停滯，公共汽車似乎要過幾年才能到達你身邊。幾分鐘一班的地鐵裝滿了人。無休止的人排隊買沙丁魚罐頭。所有簡單好的東西象陽光、新鮮的空氣都成了一種奢求。高大的建筑擋住了陽光，交通川流不息，噪聲從不停止。

　　幾十年前人們瘋狂的涌入城市，現(xiàn)在越來越多的人認為只有瘋子才會居住在現(xiàn)代大都市里。

　　本文重點等級 ★★★★★

　　本文是一個社會熱點話題，隨著城市人口越來越多(there are an increasing number of individual who would like to live in the city. )造成的問題也越來越嚴重， 因此大家在構(gòu)思這篇文章時，可以從交通(traffic)、污染(pollution)、浪費時間(it is a waste of time)等方面去擴展自己的文章。
