READING - TEST 4 - 4

My neighbourhood.

Person A

I have only been living here for a few weeks, so I am still quite new to the area. So far, I am pretty impressed with all that the neighbourhood has to offer. I thought I would miss my old area a lot more, but that’s not the case. There’s a ton of nature around here. So far, I am really enjoying taking long walks through the ravine and I have also started going jogging along the path. It would be perfect if I owned a dog.

 

Person B

When I moved to the neighbourhood, I had the intention of going for runs around the block instead of going to the gym. However, that changed when I saw how busy the streets are in the morning. There are so many people that I feel like I am in an obstacle course trying to get past them. That’s the main reason that I really miss my old area. It was never crowded. I guess the advantage of living in a heavily-populated place is the transport links. I’ve sold my car and started taking the buses and it has saved me loads of money.

 

Person C

I have mixed feelings about where I live now. There is quite a big park by my house, which I thought would be perfect to walk my dogs in. However, it actually isn’t pet-friendly at all. There is no off-leash area for my pups to get some exercise. While there is a trail, it is shared by walkers and cyclists, so it could be quite dangerous for animals. Asides from that, there are very few benches and no water fountains. I think it could be so much better equipped.

 

Person D

I think my favourite part about my neighbourhood is the walkability. I have never owned a car and I don’t believe I will ever need one if I continue to live here. I have a small market just up the street where I buy most of my groceries. I know supermarkets tend to be cheaper to buy in bulk, but I much prefer the interaction I get in these mom-and-pop shops. There are also a few tasty family-owned restaurants all within two kilometres that are much better than any chain eatery in the city centre.
