**TASK 8: Read the text, and do as direct:**
Living in the country without a doubt sounds appealing but it is highly important to be aware that country life is very different from what you have experienced during a few-day vacation and that the countryside has changed a lot in the last few decades. So before you start packing, you are recommended to take into account both the **pros and cons** of country life.
First of all, country life depends greatly on where you live because living in the country can mean a lot of things including living in a small village, a market town or an isolated place with the first neighbor living 10 miles away. **The latter option** sounds very tempting because it gives you all the privacy and peace in the world.
However, living far from the "civilization" also means living far from the shops, schools, pharmacies and other things city dwellers take for granted.
Many people who live in villages and market towns will say that city dwellers have more privacy and they are partly right. In the country, everyone knows everyone and everyone knows everything about everyone. People in the country are friendlier and more open but they are people. This means that they are naturally curious and that they may want to know too much about your personal stuff. But then again, people will only be as intrusive as you allow them to be.
Living in the country offers a number of benefits over city dwelling but it is not as idyllic as many people think it is. You are recommended to take time and think things through before you decide to move to the country and buy an old farmhouse. Also, keep in mind that you can also buy a small cottage with a lovely wood burning stove to have a place of your own to retreat when you need a break from the city.
**a. Matching.**
1. appealing: a. the stage of human social development and organization which is considered most advanced
2. isolated: b. stores sell drugs
3. privacy: c. be situated far from the main centers of population
4. pharmacies: d. attractive
5. civilization: e. extremely happy, peaceful
6. city dwellers: f. far from other places, buildings, or people
7. personal stuff: g. a small house, typically one in the country
8. remote: h. people who live in a city
9. idyllic: i. things belong or relates to a particular person
10. cottage: j. the state of being free from public attention
