When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm. In the winter especially, we were quite cut off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, I soon discovered that my life has its problems too.
One big disadvantage is money. It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I have breathing problems, and the air is so polluted that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling around. Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous.
Of course there are advantages. First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your taste in culture or entertainment. Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprising — and, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.
Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, and especially if you have small children, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What was the speaker always thinking about when he was a child?
34. Which of the following is true about the speaker?
35. What does the speaker try to do in the passage?
选项
A、Staying on the farm.
B、Leaving home for the city.
C、Moving to the countryside.
D、Running away from the school.
答案
B
解析
短文开头提到when I was a child,I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city,即说话者小的时候总想离开家逃往城市,故答案为[B]。
