　　Task 2 ：城市规划类话题

　　题目翻译：城市规划者倾向于将学校、住宅、商店和办公室安排在特定区域，并将它们彼此分隔开来。你认为利大于弊吗?

　　今天的考题看起来有点难度，实际上这是2017年7月29号的旧题。

　　题目思路：

　　把城市按照功能function进行分区，把相同功能的设施安排在同一个区域。这么做的好处是充分利用城市发展的特点make good use of the city’s characteristics，对资源进行有效的管理和整合manage and integrate the resources effectively。比如在城市的某些区域，一直以来商业繁荣prosperous business，很容易开发成为专门的商业区be developed into commercial areas，这样能够吸引顾客和游客，刺激消费boost consumption。此外，划分专门的区域可以为人们创造更好的生活环境create a better living environment。把居民区和工业区分开，让人们的生活免受噪音和污染。在生活区周边修建医院和超市等配套设施，让人们的工作生活更加方便舒适。

　　这种做法的弊端是可能造成某些不方便，因为各个区之间隔得比较远be widely separated，人们去办事可能要travel a long distance。工作日的早晚高峰的时候during rush hours，从住宅区去往学校和办公区的公路可能也会非常拥堵traffic congestion。如果交通流量增加，也可能会造成尾气排放增多emission of exhaust fumes，给城市带来更多的空气污染air pollution。但是如果能够采取一些措施解决交通问题，比如修建地铁轻轨，弊端也是可以克服的。
