People in countryside have more time to be egaged in their interest, and the living pace in countryside is slow, so people can have more time to enjoy life.Second, the environment in countryside is better than that in the city, the air is clean and there are many greens in the surrounding areas, which are good for the health. Third, there are not many problems in the country side, for example, heavy traffic, so people in the countryside does not have to waste more time on the road to work. The public security condition in countryside is also better than that in the city, there are not many thieves, or robbery.So in general, I think the life in countryside is better than life in city, especially in big cities. And I would like to live my life in the countryside, and there are many opportunities in the countryside for us. Because we may not know well everything in the countryside17.提示：1. 你理想的工作是什么2. 你的理由3. 如何实现你的理想Different people have various ambitions. Some want to be engineers or doctors in the future.
