Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and go into their offices, factories or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up earlier in the morning and arrive1later in the evening.

Then, in the country people can get 4from noise and hurry of the town. Although people have to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, people can sleep better at night.
Some people, however, take5interest in country things, for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants, such people would feel that life was not worth living if they had to6it outside London. A walk in one of the parks and a visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want.
