The world's exploding population signals even more growing pains ahead for already crowded areas. A new United Nations study forecasts that by the year 2000,2 billion persons will be added to the 4.4 billion in the world today.
Even more troubling than the increasing number of inhabitants are the projections of where they will be concentrated. The study by Rafael M. Solos, executive director of the U. N. Fund for Population Activities, notes that by the year 2000:
Nearly 80 percent of all people will live in less developed countries, many hard pressed to support their present populations. That compares with 70 percent today.
In many of these Third World lands metropolises (大城市) will become centers of concentrated urban poverty because of a flood of migration from rural areas.
The bulging(膨胀的) centers mainly in Asia and Latin America, will increasingly become fertile fields for social unrest. More young residents of the urban clusters(一群) will be better educated, unemployed and demanding of a better lifestyle.
To slow the rush to urban centers, countries will have to vastly expand opportunities in the country side, the study suggests. Solos says: "The solution to the urban problem lies as much in the rural areas as in the cities themselves."
Worldwide, the numer of large cities ,will multiply. Now 26 cities have 5 million or more residents each and a combined population of 252 million. By the end of the decade, the number will escalate to 60. with an estimated total of almost 650 million people.

The hunter-gatherer tribes that today live as our prehistoric 【M1】______
human ancestors consume primarily a vegetable diet supplement- 【M2】______
ing with animal foods. An analysis of 58 societies of modern
hunter-gatherers, including the Kung of southern Africa, re-
vealed that one-half emphasize gathering plant foods, one-third
concentrate on fishing, and only one-sixth are primarily hunters.
Overall, two-thirds and more of the hunter-gatherer's calories 【M3】______
come from plants. Detailed studies of the Kung by the food sci-
entists at the University of London showed that gathering isa
more productive source of food than is hunting. An hour of hunt-
ing yields in average about 100 edible calories, 【M4】______
as an hour of gathering produces 240. Plant foods provide 【M5】______
for 60 percent to 80 percent of the Kung diet, and no one goes 【M6】______
hungry when the hunt fails. Interestingly, if they escape fatal in-
fections or accidents, these contemporary aborigines live to old
ages despite of the absence of medical care. They experience no 【M7】______
obesity, no middle-aged spread, little dental decay , no high
blood pressure, no heart disease, and their blood cholesterol lev-
els are very low (about half of the average American adult). 【M8】______
If no one is suggesting that we return to an aboriginal life style, 【M9】______
we certainly could use their eating habits as a model for healthier 【M10】______
diet.

I have certainly seen lots of changes in my lifetime! I look around my home and see "mod cons" that I could never have dreamed of 50 or 60 years ago. I spent the early part of childhood in a cottage without running water or electricity and yet these days, I feel paralyzed if there is a power cut for even just an hour or two! So, I have changed too. Things that I couldn't even imagine in the past now seem quite normal.
Businessmen can travel from London to New York in three hours and lots of people exceed the seventy-mile-per-hour speed limit on motorways. A person of 75 is not old these days. A serious illness does not mean certain death because there have been so many advances in medical science. We no longer need to be afraid of contracting diseases like polio or smallpox. I can speak to my son in Australia from my own sitting room here in Manchester, watch athletes running a race on the other side of the world without moving from my own home and I can even do my shopping while I sit here in an armchair. I never need to worry about food going bad in the warm weather and, at the flick of a switch, I can have a hot meal in a couple of minutes. So, it seems, the quality of life has greatly improved since my own childhood.
I'm not convinced, however, that people are happier today than they were 50 years ago. We are certainly materially better off than we were but most people still seem to be weighed down by problems. My daughter and her family are a good illustration. They have a spacious, comfortable home with every labor-saving device you can think of. There's a washing machine, a clothes dryer, a food processor, a vacuum cleaner and all sorts of other household items which are designed to save time but it seems to me that my daughter and her husband just spend all that "saved" time working! They never relax and are always complaining of being tired and "stressed".
What is the passage mainly about?
A.How life has improved.
B.How life has become worse.
C.A comparison of life now and that in the past.
D.Memory of life in the past.
