With economic development the world over, urbanization has become a global trend. Cities provide convenience and civilized lifestyle, but they also bring about a series of problems, such as pollution. traffic jam, and crime, etc. Then how should we treat these problems out of the urbanization?

The citizens in modern cities can enjoy a more colorful life than the people in the out-of-way countryside do.

Townspeople are well-informed because they have an easier access to news, while compared with people living in cities country people are ill-informed because these areas are hard to get to or inaccessible.

Urban traffic is So well-developed that the residents there often visit exhibitions and parks which are only a short bus ride away. For country people this is a major operation which involves considerable planning.

Shopping, a necessary activity in everyday life is more convenient in the city than in the country. Townspeople can buy what they want at any time of a day. But rural residents go to town at most once a week. So after shopping they always stagger home loaded with heavy purchases.

As far as meals and clothes are concerned townspeople are well-fed and well-dressed as there is an adequate supply of goods. But rural people are too busy with their farming to pay particular attention to them.

It is for these reasons that more and more people are piling into the city and looking for a nest there. To be exact, thousands people rush into cities each year. For every one who moves out at least nine or ten are waiting to come in.

nature. So, while we take advantage of the opportunities that the cities offer us. we ought to devote our intelligence and wisdom to bettering our cities.

Avoiding the ?rush-hour? must be the slogan of large cities the world over. If it is, it is a slogan no one takes the least notice of.

With predictable regularity, wherever you look, it is people, people, people. The trains which leave or arrive every few minutes are packed: an endless procession of human sardine tins. The streets are so crowed, there is hardly room to move on the pavements. The queues for buses reach staggering proportions. Seemingly it would take ages for a bus to get to you because the traffic on the roads has virtually come to a standstill. Even though a bus does at last arrive, it is so full, it can not take any more passengers.

This whole crazy system of commuting stretches man?s resources to the utmost.

The smallest unforeseen event can bring abut conditions of utter chaos. A power-cut, for instance, an exceptionally heavy snowfall or a minor derailment must always make city-dwellers realize how precarious the balance is.

A few flowers in a public park (if you have the time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant to the people living in cities.
