Compare and contrast between a small town and a big city


Everywhere in all countries there are small towns and big cities. People like big cities so they can find all facilities there .There are also people who like small towns.I am going to write about the similarities and differences between a small town and a big city.

There are a few similarities and differences between a small town and a big city. The first similarity is that both of them have facilities such as water and electricity so living there is the same .The second similarity is that roads and streets  are both there so it’s easy to reach home .The third similarity is that both have a population in them so you can live a normal life in them . Another similarity is that both have schools and hospitals so if you want to study or have treatment you can do so in both of them.

Although there are similarities there are also several differences .The first difference is that a big city has big buildings, not as a small town so the big city can take more population. The second difference is that a big city has more traffic than a small town. The third difference is that a small town is quieter than the big city so people can sleep well.

As we see, there are similarities and also differences. I prefer a small town to a big city so I can relax and avoid traffic.

UAE in the past and nowadays



People like to know about any country, its history and what it is now. A lot of change has happened in the UAE from the past until nowadays. I am going to write about the similarities and differences between the UAE 40 years ago and now.

There are a few similarities and differences between them. The first similarity is that people use camels for racing so they can have fun and they challenge between them. Another point is that the royal family is Al Nahyan because people like them. Also the main language that they use is Arabic, the same as the past .The final similarity is that the religion is the same, Islam.

Although there are similarities, there are also several differences .The first difference is the population has increased. Another difference is that the hospitals in the past were not as many as now. A further dissimilarity is that there are more buildings everywhere. Also there is a final difference which is the education. In the past they studied the Koran, writing and reading only. Now there are universities and schools everywhere in the UAE.

As we know the UAE has been changed in a short time from 0 to 180 degrees. There are many facilities that any person needs. I prefer the UAE now because everything is available to have a good life.
