(Update 2024) Describe an interesting neighbor Free lesson

Good neighbors are important because they are our family apart from our real family. When we are alone, and we need somebody then neighbors are the first people who can give us company. When we are sick and need to go to the hospital, the neighbors are the first people who can help. When we have guests and need a helping hand, then neighbors are the first people who come to our rescue

Good neighbors should have many qualities. They should be cooperative. They should be helpful. Good neighbors should respect boundaries, which means that they should know when they are being helpful, and when they are interfering.

In smaller towns and cities, and in villages most people know their neighbors, but in big cities and in metropolis, people are leading self-centered lives and do not know their neighbors. In small towns and cities life is slower, and so people have time for their neighbors, whereas in big cities, life is fast and so people do not have time for their neighbors.

A good community should care for each other. All people in the community should cooperate with each other. This should help each other in times of emergency. They should all keep the environment clean. They should have frequent get-togethers, and celebrate festivals together. If all people of the community know each other, then miscreants could be spotted easily and everybody would feel safe and secure.

– I think parents play a critical/crucial/vital/very important role in helping their kids learn to form/build/establish relationships with people in their community, as they are generally regarded as the best teachers of their children.
– They could take their kids out on a regular basis when they are still babies or toddlers and get them acquainted with people living in the same apartment building or the same residential compound.
– When children get a little bit older, they should be encouraged to initiate/start conversations and build friendships with other children in the community. This would be the first time that they venture to sort of socialize with others.
– On top of that, children can build relationships with people by participating in community service, like helping to deliver food for the old and the disabled, handing out brochures and leaflets to residents, etc.

– Generally speaking, our relationships with neighbors are not as close as in the old days.
– The main reason I guess is in the past, most people lived in relatively small towns where every one knew one another and when something happened, the news got circulated among a very fixed number of people.
– But the growth of cities and especially the emergence of metropolitans in the 20th century have led to a influx of population in urban areas and the disintegration of traditional extended families. As more single-person households and the idea of individualism come into existence, less attention is paid to building relationships with those living next door.

– Although people, younger generations in particular, nowadays are less devoted to forming close relationships with neighbors, they can certainly gain some benefits from maintaining a good relationship with them.
– For one thing, they could be informed by their neighbors about something that deserves attention, like important notifications posted by the community about power cut or a particular event, and make arrangements accordingly.
– In some extreme cases, like the tight lock-downs during the pandemic, the bond between neighbors can be life-saving when logistics is paralyzed. Neighbors are the only people you can count on when logistics is paralyzed.

– Well, they can start from the basics, like always keep in mind the wall and ceiling may not be as soundproof as they seem and therefore try not to make any loud or clearly audible noise when they are at home. Even if some people never consider getting close to their neighbors, they can still leave a good impression on them by being civilized.
– If people want to bring the relationships with neighbors one step further, they can offer help to them whenever necessary. For instance, when they see a neighbor carrying something bulky and heavy, they could give him/her a hand. Or when they receive any help or favor from a neighbor, they shouldn’t forget to reciprocate/give back.
