an essay about cities' current plomble

question: In many countries, the quality of life in large cities is becoming worse. What are the causes of this problem? What measures do you think should be taken to tackle this problem?


There is no denying that cities have a high standard of living; however, nowadays, some issues which lower the quality of urban life have been gradually emerging. From my point of view, there are several reasons, which I have listed below.
To begin with, over-population which is caused by increasing immigration every year is one of the reasons. In search of better job opportunities and better living, more and more people decide to migrate from the poorer countryside to modern cities. Obviously, it has increased the pressure on local facilities and services. In addition, traffic congestion also cannot be ignored. In the past few years, the number of private cars has had a dramatic growth because of the increased standard of living. However, more cars means less space on the roads, thus traffic jams happened all the time, especially during holidays. Finally, the fast pace of city life makes people feel more stressed than ever before. Citizens work hard for a better life and do not have much vacation time to relax themselves, which can definitely weaken the sense of happiness in urban life.
To guarantee the quality of city life, I feel that some measures can be put in place. One possible measure is to limit the number of immigrations by formulating a quota system, whereby only a fixed number of people could move to the city. Another measure, related to traffic jams, is that the government can construct more pedestrian areas to encourage people to walk or cycle more. In terms of the final reason, the measure that can be took is that more public welfare and holidays should be planned by government to promote citizens’ happiness.

Why are we still single?

Almost all women are very good. They have a good job and good character. They don't hate marriage, and in fact, it's just the opposite, they are actually eager to marry. They need a lover's hug and warmth. They need communication and fighting. They always dream of a scene where they are with their lover and children, and have a happy life. They need not only a man, but spiritual communication, study and growth. For the first thirty years we live by ourself, after that we will live with a strange person. If we have chosen wrong, we will spend the next thirty years struggling with our wrong choice. But if we don't choose, we will never know which is right. So we need to be brave, the right choice will come. I hope everyone will have a happy life; we are all worthy of love.

Kabuki

I'm a big fan of Japanese and I love Japanese culture. A recent Japanese drama that I watched was ぴんとこな. It's about Kabuki (a classical Japanese dance-drama). The face painting, the expressive moves, all of it was awesome. I wonder if Kabuki actually originated from Beijing Opera.

:) help me correct my English please<3

Hello everybody

First of all, thank you for correcting my text.

Actually, I've been learning English since I was in highschool, but it's been several years since I've practiced.

I have been out of practice every year since I started university life in France.

Contrary to my improvement in French, my English skill has decreased terribly. I don't even know if I'm writing in a good way.

If you have some suggestions for expressing something in a different way, please let me know. It will be really helpful.

Thank you everybody for correcting me!! It's going to be a great pleasure and every mention will encourage me. :) Have a nice day everybody!
