4. Case analysis
Case study a farmer tried to persuade his wife to move to a nearby city. He wrote down a few reasons
for her to see. Income Increase, 2 schools are better, 3 housing on the farm is inconvenient, 4 social life is full, 5 cultural facilities are good, 6 farm workers are difficult to find, 7 dental treatment for the daughter for the first reason, her wife retorted, the expenses in the country were much less than in the city, and he would have a considerable inheritance, so they did not need any extra money. As for the second reason, she replied that school is not the whole content of education. It is also important to be in touch with nature and to develop one's abilities in solitude. She admits that city schools are better, but cautions that he agreed to send his children to private schools, so there is no difference between city and country schools. For the third reason, she admits that country houses are inconvenient, but they have a lot of charm and can be heated. As for reason number four, she said that they actually had too many guests now, and offered a new sub-argument: they both liked the outdoors, and liked horseback riding and hunting for reason number five, she said she had a radio and a stereo now. As for the sixth reason, she said he could use more machinery to solve the difficulty of finding a helper. For the seventh reason, she admits that her daughter's dental work is important, but she can drive her to a good dentist once a week.
