China is a modern, dynamic country that is currently undergoing such a remarkable period of regeneration and renewal that a visitor returning after ten years away would find it difficult to recognize the place. It is a country of brand new cities, and, as factories are built and the economy booms, people are flooding into these thriving urban centres at an alarming rate. At first, it was the great cities along China’s southern coast which experienced sudden population growth, but the demand for urban living amongst China’s poor, largely rural population is such that completely new cities far from the sea are now rising up and expanding outwards.Chongqing is one of these great new cities. It’s a huge, sprawling metropolis of half-built skyscrapers and towering cranes wrapped in grey clouds of wintry mist and man-made pollution, and its mighty yet monotonously uniform buildings stretch far into the distance. Its population already exceeds 30 million, and with 40,000 people making their way to the city from the countryside every month, this population growth shows no sign of slowing down.This marked shift from rural to urban living has worried many of China’s national decision makers, but not its urban planners. Rather than feeling overwhelmed by the idea of population movement on a scale not experienced up to now, these architects and designers are rising to the challenge and attempting to meet the needs of their new citizens. In the next two decades, China plans to create 20 new cities, designed to meet the needs of an estimated 12 million people whom the government expect to move from the countryside.China is concerned about its international image as a nation whose economic and industrial emergence is at the expense of its own and the world’s environment. To address this, it has ambitious plans to build eco-cities, which, it hopes, may provide a model for the developing world. One such project is on Chongming, an island near Shanghai. Homes in this new city will be built using modern materials and will be designed to be energy- and waste-efficient.These new eco-cities have many critics, however. They argue that the real aim of city authorities is not to use modern technology in order to create an eco-friendly city, but to build housing with the latest gadgets to appeal to a growing prosperous class of people who wish to live in attractive surroundings while feeling they are helping the environment. The true aim is to attract more wealth to their cities, and, therefore, critics claim, more consumption, waste, and pollution. 1 One reason why new cities are being built is that China is going through a period of economic growth.

True False Doesn’t say 7 In 20 years, there won’t be enough living space in cities for the 12 million new people who want to live there. True False Doesn’t say 8 According to the text, economic growth is a more important issue than the environment in China. True False Doesn’t say 9 Chongming will be designed to be environmentally-friendly. True False Doesn’t say 10 Eco-city critics say that the rich people who will move to the new eco-cities will help make the environment better. True False Doesn’t say
