更多"Nowadays many big cities in the wor"的相关试题:
[单项选择]Nowadays, cities are becoming more and more crowded. Some pessimists (悲观者)are deeply worried about the serious problems caused by the huge populations. They believe that the public services are already overloaded and near the verge of collapse. Especially in some developing countries, the metropolis(大城市) are overcrowded all the time. Crowded streets, stuffed buses and jammed subways continuously affect people’s lives. Some optimists, however, see the current problems as merely part of an evolutionary process. They argue that London and New York had similar problems but were able eventually to establish an orderly and safe environment for their citizens. It seems that people become the controversial factor here. Either they themselves as inhabitants cause inconvenience to each other, or they participate together in city developing plans and contribute efforts to facilitate city life. Human elements are therefore the center for determining the future of big cities.

Manners nowadays in metropolitan cities like London are practically non-existent. It is nothing for a big, strong schoolboy to elbow an elderly woman aside in the dash for the last remaining seat on the tube or bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her, as he ought. In fact, it is saddening to note that if a man does offer his seat to an older woman, it is nearly always a Continental man or one from the older generation.
This question of giving up seats in public transport is much argued about by young men, who say that, since women have claimed equality, they no longer deserve to be treated with courtesy, and that those who go out to work should take their turn in the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be physically as strong as men. Even if it is not agreed, however, that young men should stand up for younger women, the fact remains that courtesy should be shown to the old, the sick and the burdened.

A. are physically strong
B. live in big modern cities
C. are from the older generation
D. live only in metropolitan cities
[单项选择]Many people in the world live in big cities, which are often dirty and difficult places to live in. So, some cities will get bigger. They will also get higher, and lower, because people will begin to live under the ground as well as in tall buildings. Scientists also say that men can begin to live in cities under the sea, when there is not enough space on the land. Of course, these new cities will be very expensive, and difficult to build, but they are not impossible. Already, some countries are building places to live under the ground so their people can go there if there is a new war. There are underground cities in Switzerland and China, built by the government to help some of the people live after a great war.
But will the people change if they live under the ground for a long time For example, some fish go blind if they live in the dark for a long time. People will not go blind, because there will be light underground, but they may change in some way. Scientists say that peop
