Living in a big city or a small city #1 (permalink) Sun Jan 02, 2011 8:41 am   Living in a big city or a small city
 

Some people prefer to live in a small town. Others prefer to live in a big city. Which place would you prefer to live in ?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In his/her life, every person confronts the question whether he/she should live in a small city or a big city. Both of them have some advantages. Personally, living in a big city has more advantages than living in a small city. The most important advantages of living in a big city are to find any job easily, to utilize the possibilities of social and sports events and to recognize more people who belong to diverse cultures.

Big cities provide many opportunities about finding any works. There are a lot of companies and shops in big cities. They serve many goods and services for many people in big cities. Accordingly, their quantities and capacities are more higher than the companies and shops in small cities have. This means that there are many job opportunities in big cities. For example, New York City, one the biggest cities of the United States, has many companies in the all segment of businesses including financial, banking, entertainment etc. However, Tallahassee, one of the smallest cities in The United States, has a few companies in a few segment of businesses. Therefore, Most of American people prefer to find any jobs easily and make money in New York.

To spend time by entertaining on social and sports events, big cities give many chances for us. Primarily, every time, many sports events are arranged in big cities, because sports clubs would like to create money through the high population. For instance, the biggest football clubs of Turkey in Istanbul , the biggest and most populous city of Turkey. In addition to this, artistic and huge social activities such as popular dance shows, theater plays are occurred in big cities. The biggest cause of this situation is that rich people of any country commonly live in big cities. Thus, small cities which do not have rich people enough cannot contribute to these activities. New York is the good example of this idea. Broadway plays, most popular and famous shows in the World are presented in this city. Additionally, art galleries which exhibit the most significant artworks are generally in New York.

Thanks to big cities, everyone can recognize different cultures. Principally, big cities are very attractive for touristic flows. Hence, a lot of people who live in everywhere in the World come to big cities to spend their holidays. It provides some occasions to meet with another people. By virtue of this situation, everyone finds out any information about another cultures. By way of illustration, consider Paris which is one the most touristic city in the World. For tourists, there are a lot of restaurants, clubs and cafes which symbolize Arabic, Turkish, Latin and African customs. Consequently, everyone easily learns any culture and meet with many people.

To sum up, everyone can have many possibilities in big cities rather than small cities. Especially, getting a job, spending time through social and artistic activities, sharing feelings and ideas with people who originate from another cultures have a simple way in big cities.

I am really hoping to see an improvement in the work of you all this New Year. You still have a limit of two essays a day, but if you feel you need to write only one per day to show an improvement, so much the better. The vast majority have it within them to write really good essays about their topics. Take your time. Think what you want to say. Think about how you intend to say it, then review it in your mind once more before beginning to write.
Scores will be more stringently applied this year. Poor work will be scored as low as six.
If you get nine, which is going to be really difficult, make sure you write even better in your next essay. Your goal is TEN, always strive for it. It is achievable, and all of you have the ability to achieve it.
Remember what I have said repeatedly ... reading is your way forward.

If anyone submits a second essay without awaiting the edit of the first, then both essays will be ignored. All corrections will be done so that you can easily find them by reviewing the edit. You don't have to rewrite your work, just make sure that you don't repeat the same mistake again.
If you still have not mastered punctuation, then spend an hour or so in doing so. It isn't brain surgery ... just do it!
Topic titles should be checked for correctness. Posts without topic titles will also be ignored.

Far too long and too many mentions of "cities." Try to be a little more concise. Break down your ideas into smaller, more compact groups. Basically the workwas good, but disorganised. Random ideas that could have been far better organised.
