In the modern life, there is an increase in the people leave the countryside and migrate to the city. The objective reason is that in the city, it brings them comfortable life and favorite job. Subjective causes are due to the following disadvantages rural areas bring about push residents away. To begin with, there is no denial that rural infrastructure is not modern and advanced. Roads are quite narrow and degraded. Schools, hospitals are not cared much and remodeled. Especially the quality teachers and doctors here are just little so the inhabitants have less opportunity to develop in all way than in the urban area. Last but not least, the biggest disadvantage in rural areas is that job opportunities are so race. The main job is craft, farming, which bring a relatively small income. With that salary, we can only live through the day, not afford for services, shopping, entertainment… In conclusion, besides the positive aspects, life in the countryside is very much. disadvantage. We all need to consider carefully before choosing where to live.

2.A popular festival you know.

In Vietnam, there are many traditional as well as modern festival from foreign countries, but the festival I like best, is a very popular festival: Mid-Autumn festival.It starts every full moon in August in Vietnam.Everybody will eat mooncakes-a kind of cake indispensable in this festival.In the evening, children will go out for a lantern parade.Somebody go out for a walk or go out to buy some mooncakes from the market.Outside, the roads will be light up by the lights of the lantern parade.Looks it's very beautiful and shimmer all the time. It's so interesting!That's what I think, how about you?

3. Traffic prolems where you live, or in a town or a city you know well

The most common traffic problem in big cities in my country is traffic jam. The main cause of this traffic problem is the crease of the population in big cities. So the number of people using the roads has risen siveral times. The second reason, is that roads are narrow and bumpy. Besides, many young people their bikes dangerously. the are traffic accident everyday. I think the road users must obey the laws seriously. The government should widen and up grade the roads and fine heavily people who break the law.
