    　　Today, people all over the world are moving out of small villages, and they are moving to live in big noisy cities. This is the movement from the country to the cities. It has been going on for over two hundred years.

    　　In many countries, the main reason （原因） people come to live in cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town, people come to find work. And soon an industrial （工业的） area（区域）begins to grow. There is usually a living area nearby. The factory workers can live there. The families of these workers need schools, hospitals, and shops. So more people come to live in the area to provide these services （服务）-and so a city grows.

    　　In every big city in the world, there is a business area. There the big companies have their main offices.

    　　In the United States, this area is usually in the city center. The people who work there often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live outside the city. It is far away from the industrial area and the city center.

    　　What is the future of the big cities? Will they go on getting bigger and bigger? Perhaps not. Some big cities have become smaller in the last ten years. It is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the big cities and back into smaller towns and villages.

    　　Of course, it is impossible to have an unbiased opinion of this young man or the team that he plays for．If you are a Man United fan, you love him．If you aren't a fan of this team, then your opinion of Mr．Beckham may be quite different．In fact, in recent times, his treatment by fans of other teams has been extremely unsavory, especially when he has been playing for England．Some of the worst words have not even been aimed at Beckham but at his wife and young child, which is a bad thing．It has been hard for the football leaders to control such unruly behavior．How can you discipline people for their comments when so many people are guilty? But under the pressure of being shouted at by so many people, he has always remained calm．
