Solution
I will suggest they buy a house three lanes away from the road. This is because:
- In a house situated on the roadside, vehicles will always come from the road and the unpleasant sound of the horns of the vehicles will be heard as noise pollution. Which will be noise.
- Due to the smoke that the vehicles produce, the air will also become polluted. There will be a lack of clean air.
- In a house, situated three lanes away from the road, the noise will be comparatively less.
- In a house situated three lanes away from the road, the air will also be comparatively less polluted.
- In a house situated three lanes away from the road, we will be more healthy mentally and physically.
