People have sometimes been murdered and hidden in the woods, by uncivilised people who do it for fun of it but most times for revenge. Robbers, branded with bad names, and accused of things worse than a person can imagine could be hiding in the bushes, or in the dark shadows of the trees. A field mouse scurrying through the planes of wheat could be a stoat or a fox, waiting for an opportunity to jump. The hoot of an owl, the haunting wail of an animal in pain, the barking of a dog, any of these would make the unaccustomed person jump in fright at every sound. Even the croak of nightly frogs would scare such a person magnifying the sound to a roar.
On the other hand if one is accustomed to the silence, and the sudden nightly noises, then that person will have no problem with these sounds. The fields become, fun, enjoyable, and homely. The forests full of adventure, and mystery that only a knowing person would ever begin to understand. The crack of a twig is a small rabbit walking along the forest floor. The hoot, an owl looking for its dinner, and every movement a small animal hiding in the undergrowth is just part of the countryside.
An inexperienced person who doesn’t live in the country would never realize the activity and the excitement that goes on at night in the country. There are crowds of foxes going on their nightly hunt, and owls hooting all over the place. Breaking the silence every so often, there will be a squeak or a squeal from animals underneath the piles of leaves as the foxes find their food.
In the countryside the air is still (so to speak) and the rustling of bushes is like a person angry at the silence. The whole area is still, the excitement that you’d feel in the daytime is so to speak pushed away as it gets darker and darker and then silence reigns. You would never now why people like the country so much, until you actually stay there, then all the feelings come to you. You feel as if you want to stay there for the rest of you’re life because its so peaceful.
‘Night in the city’
A city is full of amazing things. People from the countryside would be amazed at the things that go on in the city, even at night. Most people would think that at night in the city it is quite. Those people are very much mistaken. The city is still very much alive during the night as it is during the day (except that there are fewer cars on the roads.)
The city has as many interesting things that have yet to be seen. The country isn’t the only place with surprises. The city has discos and pubs and even a few shops that are open all the way through the night. These places are always full of people no matter when. These places (the pubs and disco’s) always have music blaring from the buildings (except sometimes).
The city is also very dangerous place. There are more and more robberies every day, and the police are having a hard job dealing with it. Things such as drug dealing and illegal selling is a common thing in the city. People are probably murdered more in the city than in any other place. The murderers in the city do it more for money than anything else, unlike those in the country.
The city is nothing like the country. First of all there is this mood in the air that changes every so often, that you feel like you want to do these stupid things. There are also hundreds of more people in the city so lots of the time you would hear a boom and then this building would come crashing down so that more and bigger buildings can be built.
The city during the night can be called peaceful for a city dweller, as during the day there is the traffic from the cars and the beeping. There is also work to be done in the offices. So for a city dweller it is a nice time during the night to lie down in peace and quite. Compared to the country the city is still full of noise during the night. At night some of the people in the city would hardly get any rest, because some of them are scared that they might get robbed overnight and stay up just in case. In the city the air at night and even during the day is humid, hot and windy because of the fumes from factories and cars. In the country it is nice and cool and warm because there are few cars and no factories.
If you would go the countryside and were a city dweller you would rather stay in the country for some reasons and some not (or so I think). You would stay in the country for health reasons and some other reasons but you might not want to because you’d miss youre friends and the cinemas so its best to make youre own choice.
