We are moving back to the city soon, and I can't wait! I like the crowds and the noise in a city. I like walking to the library after school or getting on a bus to visit a museum. In the city, people sit and visit in front of their homes or in the parks. You can walk from place to place instead of driving in your car.
We moved to our house in the suburbs a few years ago. It's a little too quiet here. I do like having a backyard and a place to ride my bike,but i miss the city streets. The trees and green lawns are nice, but they get a little bit boring for a city mouse like me.

Excellent. For number 4, it could add that it was too quiet in the suburbs.
Your son's answers are correct. Let's go through each question to confirm:
1. The conclusion your son drew is that the author is excited about moving to the city. This conclusion is supported by the positive statements made, such as "I can't wait!" and "I like the crowds and the noise in a city."
2. The two details that support this conclusion are: "I like the crowds and the noise in a city" and "I like walking to the library after school or getting on a bus to visit a museum." Both of these details express a positive attitude towards the city and its amenities.
3. The conclusion your son drew is that the author felt bored in the suburbs. This conclusion is supported by the statement "It's a little too quiet here", which implies a lack of excitement or stimulation in the suburban environment.
4. The two details that support this conclusion are: "I do like having a backyard and a place to ride my bike" and "but I miss the city streets." These details show that although there are some positive aspects to the suburbs, the author still expresses a longing for the livelier atmosphere of the city streets.
Overall, your son's analysis is correct, and he effectively used the details provided in the passage to draw accurate conclusions about the author's feelings towards moving to the city and living in the suburbs.
