Unlike life in the countryside which is often considered to be simple and traditional, life in the city is modern and complicated. People, from different regions, move to the cities in the hope of having a better life for them and their children. The inhabitants in the city work as secretaries, businessmen, teachers, government workers, factory workers and even street vendors or construction workers.

            The high cost of living requires city dwellers, especially someone with low income, to work harder or to take a part-time job. For many people, an ordinary day starts as usual by getting up in the early morning to do exercise in public parks, preparing for a full day of working and studying, then traveling along crowded boulevards or narrow streets filled with motor scooters and returning home after a busy day. They usually live in large houses, or high-rise apartment blocks or even in a small rental room equipped with modern facilities, like the Internet, telephone, television, and so on. Industrialization and modernization as well as global intergration have big impact on lifestyle in the cities. The most noticeable impact is the Western style of clothes. The “ao dai”- Vietnamese traditional clothes are no longer regularly worn in Vietnamese women’s daily life. Instead, jeans, T-shirts and fashionable clothes are widely preferred.

The most important reason why people move to the city is that........................

• to look for a complicated life.

• to take part – time jobs.

• to have busy days.     

• to look for a better life.
