　　大城市有利于个人事业的发展。

　　I think big cities usually have more job opportunities than small cities, therefore they are beneficial to our career development.

　　我认为在通常情况下大城市比小城市有更多的工作机会，因此大城市更适合我们的职业的发展。

　　In my opinion, big cities such as Beijing，and Shanghai can provide us with a better stage to develop and improve our abilities in working, and most headquarters(总部) of multinational(跨国的) corporations are located in big cities.

　　依我看来，像北京、上海这样的大城市可以给我们提供一个更高的平台去发展和提高个人的工作能力。而且大部分跨国公司的总部都坐落大城市。

　　As we all know, the pressures can be changed into drives for us to learn and to improve ourselves. Thus, when we are working in big cities, the pressures are good for our further career development.

　　众所周知，压力可以转化为驱使我们学习和提高的动力。因此，当我们在大城市工作的时候，压力对我们以后的事业发展是很有好处的。

　　Small city is better than big city to live and work.

　　小城市比大城市更适合生活工作。

　　I think, small cities can provide us with more promotion¹(升职) opportunities than big cities. First of all, the bigger the city is, the fiercer(猛烈的) the competition is, which can make getting a promotion difficult. Secondly², with many people flowing to big cities, there are fewer and fewer competitors left around us in small cities. Therefore, we can become the key employees in our companies and take more opportunities to be promoted.

　　我认为，小城市相对大城市来说，能够提供给我们更多的升职机会。首先，城市越大，竞争越激烈，导致升职也更加的困难。第二，随着越来越多的人涌向大城市，我们周边小城市的竞争越来越小了。因此，我们就可以成为公司的核心员工，就有更大的升职机会。

　　As for me, I think I will choose a small city to work rather than a big city. Undoubtedly³, big cities offer more opportunities. However, people have to bear more pressures. In my view, as a human being, the main objective⁴ is to enjoy life, instead of undertaking⁵ pressures.

　　对我来说，我会选择在小城市工作，而不是大城市。毋庸置疑，大城市能够提供更多的工作机会，然而，人们不得不承受更大的压力。依我看来，我们的主要目标是享受生活，而不是承受压力。
