 5 countryside.
 I like living in the countryside because of some reasons. It is a peaceful 
 place with fresh air. We can enjoy a healthy natural condition without 
 worrying much about air pollution. Moreover, rural is a safer place than a 
 city. Because most of the villagers are friendly and willing to help each 
 other. There is less traffic so it's safe for children. The special thing that 
 people like living in the countryside is the cost of living here usually cheaper 
 so this is an idea place to raise the child. In contrast, the bad things are very 
 rare in the countryside. To sum up, except the problem of income, the 
 countryside is a residence better than the cities. II. WRITING

 I like the life in the countryside for many reasons. First of all, life in the countryside 
 is much more peaceful than in the city. The air is so fresh and cool. Besides, there 
 are so many beautiful sceneries there such as woods, mountains, rivers, ponds, and 
 lakes... For that reason, many people choose the countryside as their refreshment 
 site after tiring days at work. Moreover, rural people are very friendly and 
 hospitable. You are always welcome to their place. They make a living by farming 
 and breeding cattle and poultry. The food there is always fresh and delicious. Lastly, 
 life in the countryside is very peaceful and good for our health. In conclusion, life in 
 the countryside has many good points. * CONSOLIDATION
