1)Are there many people live near you?
Yes, I live in a small/ big community, so I've got a lot of neighbors. You know, nowadays, the relationship between neighbors is not as close as before. Most of people who are busy their work may not know who their neighbors are, and some people just say "hello"when they bump into their neighbors in the community.
2)Do you think it's important to know your neighbors?
Yes. There is an old saying: A far-off relative is not as helpful as a near neighbor. Well, having good relationships with your neighbors has many benefits. You know, people live in a society not vacuum, everybody need communication and help. If you get on well with your neighbor, you can become good friends, share ideas about life with them. What's more, when you are stuck in trouble at home, the most efficient way is to ask your neighbor for help.
3)What sorts of problem can people have with their neighbors?
Well, sometimes, the problems between neighbors cannot be avoided because of different lifestyles and different views. For example, old people may not tolerant the loud music and ruckus all night long caused by young people. On the other hand, young people may get irritated with the sound of morning exercise.
4)Would you prefer to have young people as young neighbors, or old people?
Well, I prefer to be neighborhood with old people. As far as I know, the elderly are always very nice and kind. They usually have a pleasant face and are very generous to offer help. Old people give the impression of being friendly and tolerant. This is perhaps because they have experienced a lot for their own lives and they can see a lot of things clearly. What's more, I think older neighborhood usually have regular timetable, you know, they get up early and sleep early. In comparison, young people nowadays are notorious for being irresponsible and selfish. They are not as polite as the older people do. They are likely to make community noise on party nights. Too much noise will drive me crazy in a quite night. I just don't think I can stand that.
