【正确答案】

One Major Problem in the Process of Urbanization

It is acknowledged that urbanization is indispensible to make China a civilized and modern socialist country.Urbanization aims to improve people’ s life, especially rural people’ s life. It not only introduces roads and rails to connect remote village with big cities to give villagers more opportunity to earn their life but also establishes schools to reduce illiteracy. However, the over-rapid development of urbanization results in some problems, among which the increasing loss of arable land is of our major concern.

Due to urbanization, the industry of real estate has bulged. Desire devours land regardless of the optimization of resources. There are even many apartments where actually no one lives. Nevertheless, land for businessmen means profit more than health and food. Thus they continue to turn to the farmland. Besides, industrialization is also a threat to arable land. The problem is that the speed of rural people’ s learning new skills is far lower than the shrink of the arable land. As a result, thousands of farmersbecome surplus laborers, which is just the other way round of the goal of urbanization.

Another problem lies in the fact that the loss of arable land and the increase of industrial land and settlements also influence the environment much. It is well-known that soil can absorb rain while cement cannot. When the rain pours out, it is easier now to have a flood, causing thousands of potential loss of property. What’ s more, some industries bury harmful amounts into lands which later become hospital or school. These lands can easily cause cancer. We not only do not use it properly, but also make it a fatal weapon. Is this our original intention?

In a word, damage and harm always follows immoderate development, which will change good thing into evil one. I firmly believe that urbanization can bring us well-being and better future. However, in the process of the urbanization, we ought to think over the current situation of urbanization, and then set a proper and comprehensive plan.
