A rise in the standard of living in a country often seems to only benefit cities rather than rural areas. What problems might this difference cause? How might these problems be reduced?

Most

people

are calling for a better living standard. But

this

development seems to only have effects on urban

areas

but not the

countryside

. I think there are several reasons for

this

, and some measures should be taken to cope with

this

problem. One major reason is that the standard is imposed by

governments

, which means it mostly focuses on cities. Because of the large intensity of the population and requirements for housing, every year

governments

permit lots of

houses

built and sold.

Hence

, it is necessary to raise the level of living to take responsibility for their citizens, and

for instance

, equipping high buildings with lifts and fire equipment is one of the efforts done by

governments

.

However

, the population is not that intensive in rural

areas

, so

governments

probably pay less attention to the conduction of lifting the standard of living there. Some may doubt why

governments

do not supervise

this

situation in the

countryside

. But in fact, it is not that

governments

do not want to take action.

Instead

, they cannot do anything. Now more young

people

move to cities, and there are just some elder

areas

. Much news shows that there are lots of officers coming to the

countryside

to help renew the construction there, but the old there are unlikely to accept their advice for they think it is unlucky to rebuild their old

houses

. And

consequently

, the standard of living cannot be lifted in those

areas

. In conclusion, cities should be given more concerns about housing requirements due to their large amount of
