Two friends, John and Mark, were having a conversation about their summer vacations. John said, "I think Paris is
than London. The Eiffel Tower is
in person! I could hardly believe my eyes." Mark replied, "I understand, but London is
and I find British museums fascinating." John nodded, "I agree, but the coffee in Paris is definitely
. And the French language sounds
to me." Mark laughed, "I prefer tea, actually. But speaking of sounds, the Big Ben rings
than any other bell tower." They both chuckled. John then said, "The French countryside is
than I expected, though. The landscapes are
compared to those in England." Mark added, "Yes, but English weather is
. It's just something I'm used to." Finally, John concluded, "Well, it's clear that every place has its charm. But I must say, Paris was
city I've visited so far!"
