I lived in a village ten years ago．There were no buildings．There were no cars．There was a small school near my village．I went to school on foot．People couldn't use the Internet．We often climbed mountains and went fishing．Now there are many new buildings．There is a new school near the village．Children go to school by bus．People often play computer games at home．

    Dan and Kim are friends. Dan lives in an apartment downtown(市中心). It is very convenient to go to work or go shopping, but it's too noisy. There is a lot of traffic. Sometimes Dan can't stand(忍受). Kim has a house in the suburbs(郊区). It's not convenient to go to work or go shopping, but it's very quiet. There is not much to do. In fact, nothing ever happens.

    Dan and Kim have a good idea. They decide to trade(决定交换)places one week.
