Living in the countryside gives us fresh air, and a quieter environment, it's a great place to dispel the stress and anxiety of the people, especially for those who have suffered so many words. pollution of the city and crowding. People may also have a larger area to build vegetable or flower gardens, dig a pond of rainbowfish ... meanwhile, it is more difficult to find a variety of jobs in the countryside. However, as urbanization is pervasive, this will not be a big deal in the foreseeable future. Besides, the transportation infrastructure is improving, more and more people are choosing to live in the suburbs and to travel downtown. The environment in which we live has a lot of impact on lifestyle . However, it is up to me to have the most advantages and to get around the limitations such as in the countryside with fresh air and afraid of pollution, pollution, in the countryside with few vehicles moving. and there are few hospitals and many other things still in the city there are many medical stations ... No matter where you live, it's best to live with your family.

Robinson Diaz lives in a small cottage high in the Andes Mountains of South America. Diaz is a “cable racer”, and every morning he faces the difficult task of taking the local teacher to her school. To do this, he first walks for an hour up to a place the locals call Los Pinos, right at the edge of the 400-foot deep gorge of the Negro valley. Here, one end of a thick metal cable has been fixed to a wooden post. The cable stretches right across the deep valley to the other side, a kilometer away.
A metal hook is fixed to the cable, with leather straps hanging from it. Diaz fastens the straps around his shoulders and waist, does a quick safety check and then, without hesitating, throws himself off the edge of the mountain. Attached to the cable by only the metal hook, he rapidly picks up speed and soon he is racing through the air. Crossing the valley by wire takes him 30 seconds, instead of the two hours it would take him to walk down through the rain forest and climb up the steep muddy slopes on the other side.
As Diaz begins his trip, Diana Rios, a 23-year-old elementary teacher, is waiting on the other side of the gorge for the moment when he will come racing through the mist towards her at 100 mph. She will then return with him, hanging on to him as he goes back along the cable. Diana had no idea when she took the teaching job that just getting to work in the village school would be dangerous. "At first I wanted to cry," she says, clutching her hook as the metal cable starts to rattle violently at Diaz’s approach. “But I soon got used to it.” She still prefers to go with Diaz, though, rather than making the frightening and dangerous crossing on her own.
For the inhabitants of Los Pinos, the wire cable is a lifeline. For more than 50 years, it has served the community as a form of transport to and from the rest of the world. Everything that comes arrives via the cable----bricks and wood for building, sacks of rice and corn. Pregnant mothers, who must get to the nearest clinic, cross the wire during the darkness of the night, returning with their newborn babies. It is dangerous, but they have no choice.
This time Robinson Diaz makes a perfect landing on Diana’s side of the gorge. For him, the dangers of this daily journey are insignificant. “What I’m really scared of are snakes,” he says. “This is nothing in comparison.” Then Dianna straps herself into her harness and hooks herself up to the wire behind Diaz, holding on to him tightly. He turns, flashes her a smile, releases the brake and kicks away. Within seconds, the teacher and the cable-racer have disappeared back into the mist.

Giúp mình sửa lỗi sai trong bài essay này với ạ!
When I was 10 years old, I was moved to a new house. This house was very beautiful, and my room is beautiful, too!
When I opened the door, I could hardly believe what I saw. Had my wish come true? The room painted pink is my room! It is lighter and it also has a wide window from where you can see the mountains and a country landscape. It has a very big balcony with a view at the sea. There are many nice pictures hunging from the wall. In one side, there is a huge bed covered by a patchwork cover, and small lamp on the bedside table. There not only a table, a desk with a computer but alsao a TV. My guitar and the piano are in the corner of the room and there are many colour lights in the ceiling. There is a small white rug on the wooden floor and plenty of books are on the shelves opposite to the bed.
Thanked to my parents that building for me a nice room!
