Many people see large urban cities as a wonder of human imagination and creativity. They represent
how far the human population has come in terms of community development. Many positive things come

from urbanization, but there are also negatives. This article will discuss and present data on the implications
of urbanization on the physical health of humans living in these large urban areas.
As it would be expected, developing countries tend to see more negative physical health effects than
modern countries in regard to urbanization. One example of a developing country experiencing these
problems is China. China is a country that in the past 30–40 years went from being an agrarian based
society to a significant industrialized country. This industrialization has in effect caused the need for more
centralized cities, centralized meaning having lots of jobs and living spaces within a close proximity. This is
what is known as urbanization. In most recent decades, since China’s change to being more of an industrial
based economy, the country has experienced record high numbers of people migrating within its borders. In
effect, the number of cities with over 500,000 people has more than doubled. These migrations are typically


of people from rural areas of China moving to the new urban areas. Due to this large influx in the urban
population, there are many possibilities for health challenges among these people.
One very common and fairly obvious negative aspect of highly congested urban areas is air
pollution. Air pollution is defined as any harmful substance being suspended in the air. This could include
particulate matter, most commonly attributed to industrial plants and refineries waste, or chemicals like CO2
or Methane (which are also products of plants and refineries as well as cars and other modes of
transportation). Due to a vast number of people in these urbanized cities, the air pollution is known to be
very extreme. These conditions can lead to many different health problems such as: Asthma, cardiovascular
problems or disease, and different types of cancer (most commonly lung cancer). When exposed to these
conditions for a prolonged period of time, one can experience even more detrimental health effects like: the
acceleration of aging, loss of lung capacity and health, being more susceptible to respiratory diseases, and a
shortened life span.
Another way that urbanization affects the populations’ health is people’s change in diet. For instance, urban
cities tend to have lots of accessible, quick, and easy to get food. This food is also more than likely not as
high quality as well as contains a large amount of sodium and sugar. Because this food is so accessible,
people tend to eat it more. This increase in consumption of low quality food can then lead to diabetes,
hypertension, heart disease, obesity, or many other health conditions.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
The generation gap that was so in evidence during the 60s has resurfaced, but it is not the disruptive force
that it was during the Vietnam era, a 2009 study suggests. The Pew Research Center study found that 79% of
Americans see major differences between younger and older adults in the way they look at the world. In
1969, a Gallup Poll found that a smaller percentage, 74%, perceived major differences.
Today, however, although more Americans see generational differences, most do not see them as
divisive. That is partly because of the areas of difference. The top areas of disagreement between young and
old, according to the Pew Research Study, are the use of technology and taste in music. Grandparents are
likely to have observed these differences in their grandchildren who are tweens, teens, and young adults.


If large differences between the generations exist, why don't they spawn conflict? The answer is twofold.
First, the two largest areas of difference—technology and music—are less emotionally charged than
political issues. The older generation is likely to be proud of the younger generation's prowess in technology
rather than to view it as a problem. As for the musical differences, each generation wants its own style of
music, and the older generation generally can relate to that desire.
Second, in the other areas of difference, the younger generation tends to regard the older generation as
superior to their own generation—clearly a difference from the 1960s with its rallying cry of "Don't trust
anyone over thirty." According to the Pew study, all generations regard older Americans as superior in moral
values, work ethic and respect for others.
