M: Well, I'd love to share with you my personal opinions on city life and life in small towns. Igrew up in a small town until I was 18 and then moved to a big city, so I have experienced thegood and bad sides of both. I never thought that I would like living in a big city, but I waswrong. After ten years of living in one, I can't imagine ever living in a small town again. Surelysmall towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a small town,you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You can't get around without one becausethere isn't any kind of public transport. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensiveparking, but there you have a choice of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving.So, if you don't have a car, you'd better live in the city. I also love the exciting life in big cities. Ican always enjoy a lot of films, concerts, and other wonderful shows. However, these things arenot common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet differentkinds of people. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller town. I thinkthat living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull. Of course,safety should be considered, and that's one area where small towns are better than big cities.Still, I would rather be a bit more careful and live in a large city than to feel safe but dull.

Look at this picture. It?s the London Tea Trade centre. As you can see, it is on the North Bank of the River Thames. It is the center of an important industry in the everyday life of the British people. Tea is the British national drink. Every man, woman and child over ten years of age, has an average over four cups a day, or some one thousand five hundred cups annually. About 30 percent of the world?s export of tea makes its way to London. And Britain is by far the largest importer of tea in the world. Now in the second picture, you can see how tea is tasted in the Tea Trade Centre before it is sold. Here, different types of tea are tasted by skilled tea-tasters before they are sold at each week?s tea sale. It?s amazing to see them at work! Over a hundred kinds of tea are laid out in a line on a long table. The tasters generally taste tea with milk, since that is how the majority of British people drink their tea. The tasters move down the line with surprising speed, tasting from a spoon and deciding what is a fair price for each tea. After that, they….
