Training writing skills for the TOEFL. Neighbors are the people who live near us. In your opinion, what are the qualities of a good neighbor? Use specific details and examples in your answer. My best neighbor is very quiet. I think it’s very important not to disturb the people, who live near you. We live in a very noisy city. There are a lot of cars, airplanes, factories. They all are very noisy. I wrote a diploma about noise and it’s bad influence on people. The noise can make you nervous, angry and can make you feel bad. And our home it’s a place, where we can have a rest in a quiet atmosphere. That’s why I think, that all neighbors must keep silence in there flats. What about my neighbors, a very strange person lives above me. She has two children, two sweat little boys, they look so cute, and a husband. And every day all day long she is scream on them. I wake up early every Sunday because of her shouts. It is awful. I really feel sorry for her children, because they are always crying. I think that they want to play or to run, and she is angry about that. And that’s why I dream about a house in the countryside. I hope that I will have it some years later :) What can I say else about neighbors? I think that these people must help each other, for example to share sugar or eggs or to water flowers, when someone is away and to feed a cat or a dog. They also can be friends and spend time together. Respect your neighbors! Keep silence and help each other :)
