Urbanisation is growing in both less-developed and more developed countries. Urbanisation is the shift from a rural to an urban society, bringing a large concentration of people into towns and cities. The chief cause of global urbanisation is the new economic opportunities it brings to people and governments; however, it has both positive and negative effects on society.
Urbanisation has many adverse effects on the structure of society as gigantic concentrations of people compete for limited resources. Rapid housing construction leads to overcrowding and slums, which experience major problems such as poverty, poor sanitation, unemployment and high crime rates. Additionally, strains on important natural resources, such as water supply, lead to higher prices and general environmental sustainability problems. Urbanisation makes people dependent on others for basic necessities; urban dwellers must rely on the rural hinterland for agricultural production, for instance, because city residents do not have enough land to grow their own food. Urban dwellers suffer the psychological degradation that comes from depending on other people to accomplish the activities of daily life, from transportation to education to entertainment.
Urbanisation offers real economic opportunities to people who would otherwise be destined to subsistence living without hope for economic improvement. There is an overall growth in commercial opportunities with urbanisation, resulting in more profits and more jobs. As the economy grows, all of society benefits from internal improvements.

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 from 44 to 50.
In the early years of children's lives, parents are the most important figures in their world. Their approval, love and support are critical to children. Consequently, much of what children do and say is aimed at maintaining that love and approval. As children get older and have more contact with people other than their parents, their behaviors and attitudes will be influenced by other people. When children are young, many parents maintain control over most aspects of their children's life. These parents choose their children's clothes, friends, hobbies and so on. As children grow older, they realise they can never grow into adults without having control of their lives. Consequently, teens begin to fight for control.
For teens, this struggle for adulthood is terribly risky because they risk losing the most important thing in their lives - the love of parents. At the same time, parents may feel rejected, hurt and anxious about teens' abilities to care for themselves. Their struggle is stressful because everyone cares so greatly about each other.
Both parents and teenagers are experiencing changes. There's a growing belief among professionals who work with parents and teens that adult problems contribute equally with teen problems in making these years difficult between parents and children. Upon entering middle age, many adults are asking themselves what they have done so far and what they want to do next. Some may be depressed by a sense that they have not achieved all they had hoped personally or professionally. Others may be anxious that their children are growing up and leaving home and they are forced to answer "Now what?". In these situations, the rebellious teen may add to parents' feelings of uncertainty about themselves. "Good" parents, after all, would not be having this struggle with their child, they think.
A common complaint from teens is that parents "want me to be the way they want me to be". In other words, many parents want a certain career, appearance or college for their teens. These parents experience varying amounts of disappointment and sometimes anger because their children fail to live up to the parents' expectations.<br.
Accepting teens as individuals who will have to make their own decisions about how to be an adult in the world can be extremely hard to do. But the healthy teen will grow up and do just that. Parents who reject their teens for failing to follow the parents' plans or who reject some aspects of their teen's life may find themselves painfully alienated from this person who they care about so much.
