Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Life in the countryside has both advantages and disadvantages. One of the greatest benefits is the peaceful environment. In rural areas, there is very little traffic and almost no air pollution. People can enjoy wide open spaces, fresh breezes, and green fields. The pace of life is much slower and less stressful than that in crowded metropolitan cities. Furthermore, villagers are typically hospitable, generous, and always ready to give a helping hand to their neighbors.
On the other hand, rural life also presents certain challenges. Medical services and educational facilities are often not as advanced as those in large cities. Public transport is rarely available, so people must travel long distances on motorbikes or bicycles to reach hospitals and supermarkets. In addition, there are fewer entertainment centers such as cinemas, shopping malls, or amusement parks for young people. Despite these drawbacks, many people still choose to live in the countryside to enjoy a healthy and serene lifestyle.
Câu 33. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The rapid modernization of rural areas.
B. The pros and cons of living in the countryside.
C. The lack of entertainment centers in villages.
