Presently, there is a tendency that a growing number of people are moving from countryside into city annually. A century ago, less than five percent of all people lived in cities. By the middle of this century it could be seventy percent, or almost six and a half billion people.
Urbanization can lead to social and economic progress, but also put pressure on cities to provide housing and services. With the increasing number of individuals pouring into cities, the worsening inequalities, driven by social divisions and differences in wealth, could result in violence and crime unless cities plan better. Another issue is urban expansion. This is where cities expand quickly into rural areas, sometimes at a much faster rate than urban population growth.
From my perspective, the government is expected to implement laws and regulations to limit the exceedingly growing of the urban population. As college students, we can seek employment back to our hometown and I am sure a promising future is awaiting us there.

目前，有越来越多的人正从农村到城市，每年的趋势。一个世纪前，只有不到百分之五的人居住在城市。到本世纪中叶可能是百分之七十，或几乎六年半亿人。
城市化可能会导致社会和经济进步，但也施加压力，提供住房和服务的城市。随着越来越多的人涌入城市，日益恶化的不平等，社会分工以及贫富差距，可能会导致暴力和犯罪，除非城市有更好的规划。另一个问题是城市扩张。这就是城市延伸到农村地区，有时会以更快的速度比城市人口增长。
从我的角度来看，预计政府执行法律、法规限制极其发展城市人口。作为大学生，我们可以回到家乡就业，我相信一个光明的未来等着我们。
