Assalam-u-Alaikum to all
when we have two places/areas/things, than we use "in" for a bigger one and "at" for its sub thing/area/place.

now i am sure that the correct sentence is
He lives at Model town in Lahore.

Hi friends,

what's wrong with the verbs used in the following sentences:

1)Neither the boys nor the girls (live) in the building.

2)People always (complain) about the cost of living.

Plz. help me detect the errors in the verbs in parentheses,if any.Thanks.

I think ..
The lake froze rapidly is the correct sentence because the word rapid used for occuring speed ,while quick mostly used in case of comparison & complition of work in short time ..
Example ...
He is to quick to finish his work.
The river was flowing at rapid rate.
