제가 직접 작성한 토플 에세이들입니다. 저는 중학교 재학중에 캐나다 밴쿠버의 Kitsilano Secondary school에서 1년동안 공부했던적이 있구요. 이번 에세이들은 ETS에서 발표한 것중 빈출 정도가 높은것들만 골라서 작성했습니다. 제가 직접 공부하면서 썼던것을 조금 보충했습니다.이제까지 필자는 토플에 3번 응시했는데요. 이번에 293점을 획득했습니다. 최근 2번은 에세이 6점 맞고 처음에는 5.5 를 맞았습니다.

Topic : Some people prefer to live in a small town. Others prefer to live in a big city. Which place would you prefer to live in? Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.As people have their own tastes for food, different people have different tastes for the place where they live. Some like to live in urban area, and others like to live in the country. Living in the country usually makes you healthy, and also helps you to have a close relationship with neighbors. I, however, think that living in cities is better because city life is more convenient for several reasons.
First, various kinds of facilities are located in urban areas. In cities, there are department stores and supermarkets which help you to shop easily, and also movie theaters that allow you to enjoy various films. On the other hand, there is not much facility in the country. It is very difficult to find a shopping center or a big hospital around the countryside. When I travelled to a small town a few years ago, I was sick at the middle of the night, but couldn`t go to hospital because there was no emergency room. If I had been in Seoul, I could have easily gone to hospital anytime.
