(1) ______

People are constantly moving from place to place. We often hear of classmates, friends, relatives or neighbors shifting to a new place. These people may be moving down the street, to another city or even to another country. If we are to look at the billions of people in the world, we will notice that thousands are moving every day for different reasons.

(2) ______

Sometimes, we hear of someone going to the airport, the railway station or the bus depot to pick someone up, to see someone off, or to even go away themselves. Some of the people are going away for :he holidays, others on business trips or to further their studies. This means that people are moving away from their present homes to a new place for a short time. This form of movement is only temporary. These are not the only people who move around. There are also other people who move from one place to another during the different seasons of the year or during different phases of their lives.

3. ______

In recent years, in countries such as the United States of America, Canada and the United Kingdom, the younger people in small towns and villages are moving to the bigger cities permanently. There are several reasons for this migration. There are much more interesting attractions tor the younger generations in the bigger cities in terms of entertainment as well as job prospects. Thus, these people are willing to leave their hometown in search of a better life.

3. ______

In Great Britain, some people from the poorer districts move to the richer districts for work. This movement however is not permanent. One such case is the seasonal migration of the Irish harvesters. These people move to England and Scotland during the corn and potato harvest seasons. They gather these crops as a means of supplementing their income.

(5) ______

The Eskimos of Canada also move from one place to another according to the changes in season. In spring, the Eskimos will move to places near lakes to hunt for wild ducks. During the summer, the ice in the river will have melted. These people will then move to places near the rivers to catch fish. When autumn approaches, the Eskimos will then move towards the dry tundra to hunt for the meat and skin of the caribou. In winter, the Eskimos will head south to the small town such as Eskimo Point and Churchill to sell their goods and buy the necessities that they require.
