Do the people like the cities they live in? Listen and check the correct answer.
A: How do you like where you're living?
B: Oh, I love it. There's so much to do here. And I have a lot of friends here, too.
2.
A: What's your city like?
B: Well, the good thing is there are a lot of things to do here. There are good theaters and restaurants. The trouble is it's getting very polluted, so it's not as nice as it used to be.
3.
A: Do you enjoy where you're living?
B: Well, I enjoy a lot about it. The city has a very nice climate. It's never too hot or too cold. And it's a safe place to live.
4.
A: What's it like to live in this city?
B: Well, it's very noisy and crowded. And the pollution is getting really bad. And I think we have one of the worst transportation systems in the world. I'd love to live somewhere else.
5.
A: How is it here, anyway? Is this a nice place to live?
B: Oh, I'm really glad we moved here. The air is fresh and the people are very friendly. Rents are pretty reasonable, and it's a very safe city, too. That's so important. Also, it's close to the sea, so it's great in the summer.
6.
A: Do you enjoy living here?
B: Some things are okay. The restaurants are pretty good, and the subway system is pretty good, too, but it's very old and not very clean. The weather also isn't that great. It's very hot and humid in the summer and pretty cold in the winter. But in general, it's not too bad.

Task 1
People are talking about cities. Listen and check the word that describes each city.
A: So tell me about Tokyo. What's it like?
B: I love it. There are so many great things to do. I'm busy all the time.
2.
A: Do you like living here?
B: Well, It's okay. One thing I do like is that there's very little noise. People don't walk down the street with loud radios or anything. It's pretty nice.
3.
A: Do you like it here?
B: It's okay. But it's awfully crowded and the air is so dirty. To tell you the truth, I'm thinking about moving.
4.
A: What's it like living in New York?
B: Oh, it's really a great city, but you have to pay a fortune for everything.
5.
A: Is Auckland a very big city? Is it crowded?
B: Not really. It's really quite small. It's never very crowded or noisy. In fact, it's like a small town in many ways.
6.
A: So what's San Francisco like? I hear it's very scenic.
B: Yes, it is. The Golden Gate Bridge is great any time of the year. The parks and the ocean are beautiful, too. It really is a very lovely city.
7.
A: What's your hometown like? Is it a nice place to live?
B: It's great, especially for families with children. It's pretty and quiet and it isn't dangerous at all.
8.
A: Is Osaka a big place?
B: Sure. That's why I like it. Lots of people. Lots of nightclubs and discos I don't like small cities.

Task 1
People are comparing two cities. Listen and circle the city each person prefers.
New York has great museums, and so does Washington. But Washington feels more serious because the government is there, so it isn't as exciting as New York. Washington is more beautiful for sure, and the restaurants are cheaper there. But you know, I love theater, and New York is the best! Washington is okay, but I love New York!
2.
Los Angeles is a huge place. You need a car to get around. San Francisco is more beautiful and it's a great place for a weekend, but I get bored there after a few days. I enjoy the fact that in Los Angeles everything moves really fast. I love living here.
3.
Hong Kong may be more beautiful than Singapore because it's got that fantastic harbor, but I like Singapore better. It's smaller, so I think it's more comfortable. It's easy to get around and everything is very clean. Hong Kong is pretty polluted and it's always very crowded.
4.
Melbourne is smaller than Sydney. It has a lot of lovely old buildings and great restaurants. Sydney is more exciting and probably more beautiful, but I think it's too busy and too expensive. Melbourne prices are better and it's a more relaxing place. That's why I prefer Melbourne.
1.
a. Washington, D.C.
b. New York (correct)
