My dream bedroom!

This is my bedroom. There is a white big bed with lots of cushions on it. Under the bed there's a basket with my toys. In front of the bed there is a small table where I have my dollhouse.
Next to the window there are curtains and a table with some chairs. On this table, I always do my homework.
Behind the bed there are some shelves with lots of my favourite books.
Right above my bed there's a beautiful pink mosquito net.
I love my bedroom

Is it better for children to grow up in the town or the countryside? (C1-C2 level)

Topic C2 level:

Is it better for children to grow up in the town or the countryside?

City:

+ The city offers a variety of everyday life activities and amenities that are not always available in the countryside.

+ educational opportunities are more numerous in a city, where a variety of cultures are within your reach.
- living space is limited due to a high population and small territory.

- higher rate of air pollution that directly affects the health and stress levels.

Countryside:
+ Feeling closer to nature (no noise from the traffic).
+ children have as much space as they want and do not have to share it with tens of other children, like this is the case in most city parks and playgrounds.

+ Clean air. Due to virtual absence of cars and factories, you will not be inhaling any potentially toxic fumes in the country.

+ Low crime rates. Life in the country is much safer than in the city when it comes to crime which is virtually non-existent in the countryside.
- young adults have to move from the countryside to the city to be able to continue their education.
