V. READING — City life (31–35)
Choose A, B, C or D.
The high cost of living is the first disadvantage. The bigger the city is, the higher the living cost is. Accommodation and petrol are expensive. Food and drinks are also pricey.

These are harmful to people's health, such as increasing their stress levels, disturbing their sleep and making them suffer from breathing problems.

Many cities lack spaces for outdoor activities; therefore, teenagers often hang out at shopping malls or in entertainment complexes instead of doing sports outdoors.
