Culture the countrysidethe countrysideThe countryside of Britain is well known for its beauty and many contrasts: its mountains and moorland, its lakes, rivers and woods, and its long, often wild coastline. Many of the most beautiful areas are national parks and are protected from development. When British people think of the countryside they think of farmland, as well as open spaces. They imagine cows or sheep in green fields surrounded by hedges or stone walls, and fields of wheat and barley (= types of grain crops). Most farmland is private but is crossed by a network of public footpaths.Many people associate the countryside with peace and time to relax. They spend their free time walking or cycling there, or go to the country for a picnic or a pub lunch. In summer people go to fruit farms and pick strawberries and other fruit. Some people who live in the country work on farms. Many more commute to work in towns. Many others dream of living in the country, where they believe they would have a better and healthier lifestyle.The countryside faces many threats. Some are associated with modern farming practices, and the use of chemicals harmful to plants and wildlife. Land is also needed for new houses. The green belt, an area of land around many cities, is under increasing pressure. Plans to build new roads are often strongly opposed by organizations trying to protect the countryside. Protesters may set up camps to prevent, or at least delay, the building work.America has many areas of wild and beautiful countryside, and there are many areas, especially in the West in states like Montana and Wyoming, where few people live. In the New England states, such as Vermont and New Hampshire, it is common to see small farms surrounded by hills and green areas. In Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Midwestern states, there are huge fields of corn and wheat and there are many miles between towns.Only about 20% of Americans live outside cities and towns. Life may be difficult for people who live in the country. Services like hospitals and schools may be further away and going shopping can mean driving long distances. Some people even have to drive from their homes to the main road where their mail is left in a box. Despite the disadvantages, many people who live in the country say that they like the safe, clean, attractive environment. But their children often move to a town or city as soon as they can.As in Britain, Americans like to go out to the country at weekends. Some people go on camping or fishing trips; others go walking in national parks.
