雅思寫(xiě)作高分范文：城市化

Nowadays, a large number of people choose to move into cities from agricultural areas as a result of a higher standard of living and better job opportunities in cities. At the same time, such a trend can cause numerous problems for both rural areas and urban areas. There are a number of problems in cities resulting from this trend, but the principal factor lies in the housing problem.

It is the fact that the demand for housing rise, as people in increasing numbers choose to work and live in cities. As a result, there is a possibility that the housing prices will increase due to the demand exceeding the supply, which could cause a new problem for people who either live in cities all the time or move into cities from rural areas.

Another problem is that a growing number of people may find it difficult to find satisfying jobs. This is largely because when there are more people in a certain city, looking for jobs will become more difficult. A number of problems can also be found in rural areas. One of the most serious problems is that the fields may decline, as people in increasing numbers choose to move away from their home. This is partly because when people leave farmlands for cities, there are not enough people farming.

In addition to this, many rural areas may experience a slower development, as many people leave agricultural areas, which is harmful for the economy of rural areas. Consequently, measures should be taking in order to address the problems that this trend brings about. Some factories can be set up in rural areas, which could offer many job opportunities to people living there.

Furthermore, the government should take some action to help farmers’ lives.
