1. Do you think the big cities in China today will become even larger in the future?
Yes, I believe that’s very likely. With continuous economic development and rapid urbanization, cities like Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen are still expanding. As more people move to cities in search of better job opportunities and modern facilities, the population of these urban centers will probably continue to rise.
- continuous economic development – sự phát triển kinh tế liên tục
- rapid urbanization – quá trình đô thị hóa nhanh chóng
- better job opportunities – cơ hội việc làm tốt hơn
- modern facilities – cơ sở vật chất hiện đại
2. What are the benefits of urbanization?
Urbanization can bring a number of advantages. For example, it often leads to improved infrastructure, like better roads, hospitals, and schools. Cities also offer more diverse career paths and higher standards of living. Furthermore, urban areas tend to have more access to technology and innovation, which can benefit both individuals and businesses.
- improved infrastructure – cơ sở hạ tầng được cải thiện
- diverse career paths – con đường nghề nghiệp đa dạng
- higher standards of living – mức sống cao hơn
- technology and innovation – công nghệ và đổi mới
3. Do you think well-developed tourism will have negative effects on local people?
Yes, in some cases it can. While tourism creates jobs and boosts the local economy, it can also lead to overcrowding, pollution, and a rise in living costs for residents. In highly touristic cities, local traditions may be commercialized, and that could dilute the authenticity of the culture.
- overcrowding – tình trạng quá tải dân số
- pollution – ô nhiễm
- living costs – chi phí sinh hoạt
- commercialized – thương mại hóa
- dilute the authenticity – làm mất đi tính chân thật
4. Do most elderly people live in the city or in the countryside?
In many countries, including Vietnam, most elderly people still prefer to live in the countryside. They often feel more comfortable in a quiet and familiar environment. However, in some modern societies, more seniors are moving to cities because of better access to healthcare and social services.
- quiet and familiar environment – môi trường yên tĩnh và quen thuộc
- better access to healthcare – tiếp cận dịch vụ y tế tốt hơn
5. Why do some young people like to live in cities?
Young people are often attracted to cities because of the job market, entertainment options, and the chance to build social networks. Cities offer more freedom and exposure to diverse lifestyles, which can be very appealing for those seeking independence and personal growth.
- job market – thị trường việc làm
- entertainment options – lựa chọn giải trí
- build social networks – xây dựng mạng lưới quan hệ
- diverse lifestyles – lối sống đa dạng
6. What advantages can tourism bring to a city?
Tourism can bring economic growth, create employment opportunities, and increase international recognition. It also encourages the preservation of cultural landmarks and can inspire local communities to take pride in their heritage. In short, it helps to stimulate local development if managed properly.
- economic growth – tăng trưởng kinh tế
- employment opportunities – cơ hội việc làm
- international recognition – sự công nhận quốc tế
- stimulate local development – thúc đẩy phát triển địa phương
