Some people think that "vertical city" is the best, where people live and work in tall buildings. Others think that "horizontal city" is better, where there are few tall buildings. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. (2014-12-06)

答案
Nowadays, more people live in cities rather than rural areas in many countries. Generally speaking, cities can be categorised into vertical cities, which usually have larger population, and horizontal cities, which have smaller population. As to what type of city is more suitable for work and life, people hold different opinions and preferences. In my opinion, both of them have advantages and disadvantages.
The type of city that should be built depends on many factors, such as population, land resource and transportation capability. Some cities which have large population but scarce land have to be vertical, such as Hong Kong, because it seems the only way to accommodate so many people within such a small land. Though not many people in a vertical city can have a proper garden as good as in a horizontal city, they enjoy the convenience the city provides. When the high-rise towers populate people more densely, more facilities and services are required to meet the need of work and life. For example, a big shopping mall or a well-equipped gym can be in walking distance.
What type of city should be chosen to live in is totally a personal choice, which varies from person to person . There is no right or wrong answer. It seems that more young people prefer to work and live in vertical cities where there are more job opportunities and they can enjoy the diversity the city has to offer. In many young people’s eyes, skyscrapers symbolises modernity. However, many elder people think vertical cities are like concrete jungles. They tend to live in horizontal cities where it is more likely that they have closer contact with nature with a garden in the backyard and a park not far away from their house.
In conclusion, although not many cities can choose to be vertical or horizontal , most people do have their rights to choose what type of city to work and live in. It more depends on personal preference and what kind of lifestyle they want to have.
