In the chapter on skyscrapers, for example, Mr. Smith touches on construction methods, the revolutionary invention of the automatic lift, the practicalities of living in the sky and the likelihood that, as cities become more crowded, apartment living will　become the norm. But there is also time for brief diversions onto bizarre ground, such as a discussion of the skyscraper index (which holds that a boom in skyscraper construction is a foolproof sign of an imminent recession).

One obvious criticism is that the price of breadth is depth; many of Mr. Smith's　essays raise as many questions as they answer. Although that can indeed be frustrating,　this is probably the only way to treat so grand a topic. The city is the building block of　civilisation and of almost everything people do; a guidebook to the city is really,　therefore, a guidebook to how a large and ever-growing chunk of humanity chooses to　live. Mr. Smith's book serves as an excellent introduction to a vast subject, and will　suggest plenty of further lines of inquiry.

上作答。

In most cultures throughout the world, there is an expectation that when a person

reaches adulthood, marriage should soon follow. In the United States __62__, each month

upwards of 168 000 couples wed, __63__ to love, honor, and respect their chosen life

mates __64__ death parts them. The expectation is deep-rooted.

__65__, the social functions, purposes, and relevance of marriage are rapidly

changing in __66__ society, making them less clear-cut than they have been __67__

history. For instance, in a Pew Research Center random polling of over 2 000 __68__ ,

fewer than half of all of the adults polled indicated that __69__ a man and a woman plan

to spend the __70__ of their lives together as a couple, it was important that they __71__

marry.

Those of us who choose to marry have __72__ reasons why we decide to marry the

person we do. There is a __73__, however, in our Western, individualistic culture: We

tend to marry for reasons that benefit ourselves, __74__ for reasons that benefit the

society __75__, such as found in collectivist cultures. Research in Western cultures has

found, for example, that the number-one __76__ people cite for marrying is to signify a

lifelong commitment __77__ someone they love. However, this reason is not the only

response to why people wed -

today, people get married for reasons of commitment,

security, and personal belief systems. The Pew Research Center's recent findings __78__

that the main reasons people get married are for __79__ happiness and commitment, and

bearing and raising children. As the data from this __80__ show us, there are racial, age,

and religious differences in what people __81__ to be the main purposes of getting

married.
