Advantages and Disadvantages of My Town

Every place has its advantages and disadvantages, including my hometown. A newcomer to my town would find not only several things to enjoy, but also a few drawbacks. Among the good points of my town are the friendly people. The residents here are very kind and will make a new neighbor feel welcome. Also, my hometown is very convenient. Stores and businesses keep long hours and the public transportation is very good. Last but not least, there are many places to spend leisure time in my town. They range from cinemas and pubs to public parks. Whatever a

newcomer’s interests might be, I believe he would find something to enjoy in my town.

Unfortunately, there are also a few things about my town that a new neighbor probably wouldn’t like. For example, because it is a crowded place, it is often noisy here. Someone who is used to the peace of the countryside may be disturbed by the sound of traffic. In addition, life here is very fast-paced and competitive. Most people do not have many opportunities to just take it easy. A newcomer might find the pressure difficult to deal with. And finally, because I live in a big city, it is necessary to travel to the suburbs of the countryside to really experience nature. But despite these disadvantages, I think that anyone who moves to my town will find much to enjoy. In conclusion, we should all concentrate on the benefits our living environment provides.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Sometimes it is better not to tell the truth. Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.

Sometimes it is better not to tell the truth

It is my belief that “honesty is the best policy” in most situations. If we lie to others for our own advantage, it is sure to hurt us eventually. Once we become known for telling lies, we will lose the trust of others, and trust, once lost, is difficult to recover. However, I do believe that there are situations in which it is sometimes better not to tell the truth.

Truth is a high ideal, but so is compassion. I don’t believe that it is right to hurt people unnecessarily, even with something as noble as the truth. In some situations the truth is of no benefit to someone and will only hurt him. For example, if a man breaks up with his girlfriend and she says terrible things about him, there is no point in telling the man. Similarly, if someone buys something and then asks for your opinion, there is no need to tell him that you think he wasted his money. The truth would only have been helpful before the purchase.

To sum up, one (转 载 于:wWW.zw2.Cn 爱作文网)should think before speaking, even when it means deciding between the truth an a lie. One must balance truth with compassion, especially when it is a matter of personal opinion. The truth should be told as much as possible, but I don’t believe that there is any harm in telling a white lie when the situation calls for it.

Childhood in the Countryside

Both the countryside and an urban environment have many thongs to offer. Many important museums and cultural venues can be found in the city. There is also often good access to educational resources and a wide variety of job opportunities. However, the countryside offers a more relaxed and peaceful way of life. Communities are often close-knit and secure. Although both environments offer good opportunities for development, it is my opinion that life in the countryside is more beneficial for children.

One important advantage of raising children in the countryside is that the environment is cleaner and healthier. With fresh air to breathe, less crowded living conditions, and more chances to take healthier than those in the city. Another advantage of country living is safety. There is not only less crime in the countryside, but also fewer traffic accidents. Parents do not need to worry so much when their children are playing outside. A third advantage is the stronger sense of community in the country. Children know their neighbors and learn to care about others at an early age. Finally, a country upbringing allows children to experience a more natural environment without all the distractions of entertainment places in the city. Thus, they can concentrate on their schoolwork and their families.

Due to the great number of advantages in raising children in the country, I believe it is better for

children to grow up there rather than in a city. Without all the dangers and distractions of city life, they will grow up healthier and better grounded in the moral values of their culture.

Borrowing Money from a Friend

There is a common saying, “Neither a borrower nor a lender be.” In my opinion, this is sound advice because the cause of money disagreements is money. Even among good friends, who would willingly share whatever they have, borrowing money can lead to problems. As a result, borrowing or lending money has cost many people a friendship. Why is this so? There are several reasons.

First, when friends ask favors of us, we like to oblige them. This may be why some people lend others money when they really cannot afford to do so or when their money, they begin to feel regret and to blame their friends for their feelings. Second, people have different concepts of money. What may be a small sum to one person may be a significant amount to another. Also, different people have different ways of spending and saving money. When friends borrow money from each other, these differences may become more obvious and lead to friction. Finally, people also have different conceptions of time. What may seem like timely repayment to the borrower may not seem so to the lender. And in the case of friends, terms for borrowing money are usually not spelled out in advance because such an act seems unfriendly. The result may be worry, distrust, or hurt feelings, all of which are detrimental to a friendship.

Given all the disadvantages above, I have to agree that borrowing money from a friend may damage the friendship. Because people have different ideas and feelings about money, it is best to make any lending agreement clear to both parties. However, friends are often reluctant to do this. The result is too often a broken friendship. Therefore, as far as friends are concerned, I believe it is best to be neither a borrower nor a lender.
