| The Smaller, the Better! After reading the article” The Benefits(益处) of Living Small”, I decided that my husband and I should sell our 2500 square-foot home to move into a 300 square-foot home. We have no children, yet we have five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two kitchens, and a huge living room. We can never afford to take time off from work to enjoy the things in life that we really want to, because our bills are so high. But when we downsize, I will be able to leave my job, and won’t have to spend hours each week cleaning! I’m sure our new little home will encourage us to get outside more often, spend more time with friends and family, and make our world more beautiful by using less energy and preventing further urban sprawl(城市扩张). I think all owners of large homes should consider going smaller! From Jane Adams________ I disagree entirely with the one-sided article you published last month, “The Benefits of Living Small”. Little homes such as the ones the writer wrote about in the article cost a small part of what normal family homes cost, and our economy(经济)is sure to feel the influence of this. Many educated people will experience brain drain(人才外流)，not to mention all the construction workers who will be left jobless. The “simple way of life” the writer speaks of in his article is nothing but simple. However, working hard and living in large, comfortable homes is something people all around the world try their best for. Before we give up the American dream, I suggest all readers reconsider selling off their biggest possession! From John Baker |
