答案
The bar chart shows the urban and rural population in China in three different periods. To be specific, the urban population has experienced a steady increase, from 300 million to about 670 million, while rural dwellers have dropped from 820 million to around 680 million, almost the same level of city dwellers.
The causes of this trend are well known. First, China has undergone an unprecedented urbanization during the past twenty years with millions of new work positions created every year. Another fact is that Chinese villagers, traditionally expected to farm, are now more inclined to seek the same diverse career paths as other citizens.
Since urbanization in China can be expected to continue, we have every reason to believe that the city population will further grow while the rural population will keep shrinking. Not only will the urban population grow, but cities will become overpopulated and filled with traffic congestion. The government should not ignore these problems while enioying the fruits of urbanization.
答案中文版
该柱状图展现了中国城市人口和农村人口在三个不同时期的情况。具体来说，城市人口在此期间增长稳定，从3亿増加到约6.7亿，而农村人口数从8.2亿降到了6.8亿左右，几乎与城市人口数持平。
这种趋势出现的原因是众所周知的。首先，在过去的20年中，中国经历了前所未有的城镇化，每年都会产生数以千万计的新工作岗位。另一个事实是，传统上以种田为业的中国农民现在更倾向于像城市居民一样寻求多样化的职业发展道路。这些因素都导致了农村向城市的大规模移民。
中国的城镇化预计会继续发展，因此我们有充分的理由相信，城市人口会继续増长，而农村人口会不断缩减。城市中不仅人口会增长，而且会变得人口过剩，交通堵塞严重。*在享受城镇化成果的同时，不应该忽视这些问题。
