Compare and contrast living in a small town or village with living in a big city

Compare and contrast living in a small town or village with living in a big city
Always a small town or village is quieter than the big city. There are big differences between a small town and big city. In this essay I will compare the differences and similarities between living in a small town and living in a big city.
First of all, there are similarities between living in a small town or village and living in a big city. These days there is no difference between the hospitals and schools in a small village or a big city. Also, in both you can find shops and all the requirements and necessities of living.
Secondly, there are more differences between living in a small town and living in a big city. In a small village everybody knows each other whereas in a big city few people know each other. Small villages are full of joy, passion and color. In a big city there are a lot of buildings, towers, malls and wide streets. But all these things are not seen in the small town. In a big city the roads are crowded and this causes the air to become unhealthy. But in the small town there is no traffic and the weather is healthy.
Finally, nowadays there is no big differences between living in the small town is better than living in a big city because it is cleaner and healthier.

The whole world is developing. There are some countries which have developed faster than the others. The UAE was one of these countries which showed a recognizable development in the last thirty years. In this essay I’m going to compare and contrast life in the UAE in the past and in the present.
There are many aspects which are similar between the two periods. The first similarity is that in both periods the same Arabic people are using the same language. In the past the number of educated people was lower than the present which is reaching 90% of the UAE citizens. The students are going to schools and colleges to study as opposed to the past where they used to go to the mosques, but in both situations people are/were willing to learn as much as they can/could.
Although there are many similarities between the two ages, there are some identifiable differences between them. One of the differences is that people used to live in extended families, whereas nowadays nuclear families are more common. People used to live in houses built with clay and stones, but nowadays they are living in high-rise buildings and villas.
As we can see, there are obvious similarities as well as differences between the past and the present. In my opinion, the present is much better than the past. I really hope that my country will keep developing, so my kids will get a better style of living.

How to use ATM

The ATM is a very important and easy machine to get money. In this essay I will describe how to use an ATM.
First of all, the ATM is a very important machine and you can find it everywhere. Now I will talk about the steps for using an ATM. First, insert your debit card and to be sure to look for a picture to see which way the card should be facing when you insert it. Second, choose a language; once the card has been inserted you will have the option to select Arabic or English. Thin, enter your Pin;  you will need to enter the personal identification number (pin), which is a four-digits number that protects against others using your card. Next, choose a transaction. At this point you are faced with a few choices. Since you want to take cash out we will choose withdraw. After that, choose an account; you may have more than one active account. In my example you will choose checking to remove funds from your checking account. After that, select an amount; after selecting the appropriate account your last steps is to choose how much cash you would like to take out.
Finally, collect items. All you need to do now is collect your receipt. We’re all done.
In my opinion the ATM is an easy machine. And it’s helping us everywhere, but make sure you don’t forget your card after you finish.
