Do you work or are you a student?

I'm currently a student.

What do you study?

I'm pursuing a degree in Environmental Science.

Let's talk about noise. Would you describe yourself as a noisy person?

No, I wouldn't say I'm a noisy person at all. I generally prefer a calm and quiet environment.

In what situations does noise bother you?

I find noise particularly bothersome when I'm trying to concentrate, especially while studying or working on important tasks. It can be quite distracting.

Do you like to listen to loud music?

Occasionally...yes, I do. However, I prefer it at a moderate volume. I find it more enjoyable, and it doesn't disturb others around me.

How do you feel about noise in your living environment?

I value a peaceful living environment. Excessive noise can be disruptive to both relaxation and productivity. I believe in maintaining a balance to ensure a harmonious atmosphere.

Do you think cities are becoming noisier?

Absolutely. It's evident that urban areas are experiencing an increase in noise levels. Factors like traffic, construction and a faster-paced lifestyle contribute to the overall rise in noise pollution. It's a concerning trend that impacts the quality of life for many city dwellers.
