Twenty years ago, people tried to leave the suburbs for cities but nowadays many people are reluctant to
make such a move. They say that compared to suburban areas, city life has many drawbacks.
The high cost of living is the first disadvantage. The bigger the city is, the higher the living cost is.
Accommodation and petrol are expensive. Food and drinks are also pricey. Apart from that, city people
seem to suffer from more noise and air pollution. The densely populated neighborhoods, busy traffic, and
big construction sites make cities noisy and dusty. These are harmful to people’s health, such as increasing
their stress levels, disturbing their sleep and making them suffer from breathing problems.
 Lack of space is another drawback of city life. House prices are high in the city, so people tend to live in
smaller houses or in apartment blocks. Many cities lack spaces for outdoor activities; therefore, teenagers
often hang out at shopping malls or in entertainment complexes instead of doing sports outdoors.
The cities’ authorities are trying to overcome these problems. However, they still have a long way to go
before they can reduce living costs and pollution, and increase green space to make all cities in the world
more liveable places.

A. To suggest city people save money. B. To explain how convenient city life is.
C. To describe what city people often lack. D. To give examples of high living costs.
Question 38. What does the word “them” in paragraph 2 refer to?
