托福阅读文章：Metropolises

Metropolises are places where many people long to go. They seem to have a shining ring and also seem to be a paradise for youth to fulfil their ambitions and dreams. But in the first place, metropolises are for people to live in. Are all the people really happy in this paradise? I do not think so.

In metropolises, the rhythm of life is rapid. The house is too small; traffic is busy; the air is not clean; noise is too much;the space is very crowded...there are skyscrapers,but they only increase the sense of oppression.there are many

top-grade restaurants,spas,hotels,etc.But they are only at the service of rich people.There are advanced facilities everywhere, but they increase the inhospitality among people.There are plenty of opportunities here, but the pride and temporary satisfaction are paid by health,happiness,and peace.Some people may think their value of life is fulfilled in metropolises. But they actually have no idea of what they have lost in the rat race. I do not mean that no one should live in metropolises.I just think people should not be crasy to swam into that so called paradise when they have not calculated their gain and loss in the future.

Peope lose much in metropolises and it is a pity that they are still willing to lose continually.I just hope that the development of metropolises could be cooled down and healthier
