some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. they say that cities will become more and more crowded. as the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. this overcrowding will cause other problems- more crime, dirtier streets , and worse problems with traffic than we have now. how will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity ), and housing? because life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. for these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in city areas. how can we deal with such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic? in some cities, thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets because there is little suitable housing and because houses are too expensive. the crime rate isnt going down. instead, it is increasing so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. traffic is also getting worse. more and more often, traffic jams are so bad that cars dont move at all for several streets. these problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no hope for the future of the city. los angeles, california, for example, has no subway system and buses are slow. instead, many commuters (乘、开车上班族) drive many miles from their homes to work. many of these drivers spend several hours each day on busy freeways. new york, however, has a big transit system- buses, commuter trains, and subways. because the public transportation is crowded and dirty, many people drive private cars, and the traffic jams are worse than that in los angeles. a taxi driver complains, “i was driving home, but in forty-five minutes i moved only two miles! finally, i turned off the engine and just sat there. a lot of people left their cars where they were in the middle of the street and went into a bar for a few beers!” on the other hand, some cities have clean, fast and pleasant public transportation systems. in paris, france, and toronto, canada, for example, anyone can use buses or subways to move quickly from one part of the city to another.51. what do some people think is the main problem of the future city like? a. poor housing. b. overcrowding. c. environmental pollution. d. traffic jams.52. the best way to work out the traffic problem in los angels might be _. a. cutting down the number of private cars b. providing more buses in the freeway c. building a subway system d. persuading people to live nearer to their workplaces53. which of the following sentences is not true? a. thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets. b. the crime rate isnt going down. c. the traffic jams are so bad that cars dont move at all for several streets. d. many people have a positive attitude towards the future of the city.(b) my grandfather came from hungary and was the only one in his family who settled down in the united states. the rest of his family remained in europe. when world war i broke out, he seemed to have become another man, downhearted. such obvious change was not born out of his welfare, but out of fear: if his only son, my uncle, had to go to war, it would be cousin fighting against cousin. one day in 1918, my uncle milton received his draft notice. my grandparents were very upset. but my mother, at the age of 10, felt on top of the world about her soldier brother going off to war. realizing how he was regarded by his little sister and all of her friends, my uncle bought them all service pins, which meant that they had a loved one in the service. all the little girls were delighted. the moment came when my uncle and the other soldiers, without any training but all in uniforms, boarded the train. the band played and the crowd cheered. although no one noticed, im sure my grandmother had a tear in her eye for the only son. the train slowly pulled out, but not about a thousand yards when it suddenly paused. everyone stared in wonder as the train slowly returned to the station. there was a dead silence before the doors opened and the men started to step out. someone shouted,” the war is over. ”for a moment, nobody moved, but then the people heard someone bark orders at the soldiers. the men lined up in two lines, walked down the steps, and with the band playing, marched down the street, as returning heroes, to be welcomed home. my mother said it was great day, but she was just a little disappointed that it didnt last a tiny bit longer. 54. what the grandfather was most worried about was . a. the spread of the world war b. the safety of his living two cousins c. a drop in his living standards d. his relatives killing each other 55. the underlined phrase “draft notice” means “_“ a. order for army service b. train ticket for europe c. letter of rejection d. note of warning 56. what did the “service pins”（in para. 2）stand for in the dyes of the little girls?
