Your parents are going to buy a house. They have been offered one house on the roadside and another house three lanes away from the roadside. Which house would you suggest your parents should buy? Explain your answer.
Houses along the roadside will have more noise problems. The noise produced by transportation vehicles may cause trouble to the residents. The intensity of noise decreases with the distance between the source and the listener. Therefore, it is better to take the house that is three lanes away from the roadside.
