Topic: NoiseQuestion 1: Are cities or the countryside noisier?Well, I think this is a pretty obvious answer. It"s definitely cities are noisier. Cities have, like, higher population density, they have more cars, they have more construction, people walking around and talking and music and all of the things that make a city a city. Whereas in the countryside. Yeah. Generally we associate the countryside with being quiet, being peaceful. It isn"t always quiet and peaceful, But I"d say 97% of the time it"s definitely quieter in the countryside.Question 2: What kinds of noises do you find annoying?I think the sounds of construction, like building, is very annoying, and that"s because it can be quite unexpected. So we, for example, have a building being constructed just across the road from our house, and they start every morning at 6:30am, and that means that at 6:30am, when we"re still sleeping, we"ll suddenly hear a huge crash or some hammering or a car beeping as it reverses, and it"s very sudden and shocking and that"s quite annoying. So, yeah, that"s definitely one of the more annoying collection of noises that I can think of.Question 3: What noises do you often hear in your area?Well, I think just the normal noises, really. The sounds of cars, the sounds of people, music. We have a lot of dogs that live in our area, so there"s a lot. One dog starts barking and then the next dog next door starts barking and then all of a sudden there"s a chain reaction and every dog in the neighbourhood is barking and none of them know why. So there"s lots of dogs. But other than that, generally there"s no unusual noises. The only thing we occasionally get is if somebody drives a motorbike very fast and very loudly down the street. But that probably only happens maybe once a day.Question 4: Can you study when it"s noisy?No, generally not particularly if it"s people speaking, because I like to listen to what everybody"s saying and so I find that very distracting. So when I"m studying, I tend to put in headphones and I try to distract my. Myself try to create a silent environment. Where I can only hear some. Maybe some classical music, and I can"t hear the people around me making noise or having conversations.编辑：Moon李▼IDE英创教育
