Question

Hi

hmmm...well the sentences seem ok to me, especially the first one (Where do young Americans prefer to live?). Just I do not understand what you mean by "Older Americans". Do you mean Elderly People??

Hi Natalli,

Thank you for your reply.

Natalli.Do you mean Elderly People??

Yes I do. But the book, which also has a CD, has written it this way.

This is the sentence:

On the other hand, many older Americans prefer to live in smaller towns.

Is it a good sentence?

TS

well welcome:)

I do not think it is a good sentence. However, it could be better. On the other hand, we should think that not everything written in the books can be valid and reliable

Hi again,

Then I should tell the students that it is better to use 'elderly' than 'older' shouldn't I?

Best regards

TS

Yes, why not:)

I guess I have read this sentence somewhere, just do not rememeber. Or perhaps you can even say

Old people prefer to live...

Hi Natalli,

Natalli.Old people prefer to live...

Yeah, that's a good option too. Thank you.

The sentence comes from the book 'Themes for Today 1' by Lorraine and Nacy. Ed. HEINLE

Take care.
