19、present a major problem. Poor conditions in these cities, such as lack of housing, inadequate sanitation(卫生 ) and lack of employment, bring about an increase in poverty, disease and crime. The over-population of towns is mainly caused by the drift of large numbers of people from the rural areas. The

20、se people have become dissatisfied with the traditional life of farming, and have come to the towns hoping for better work and pay.

22、encourage people to stay there. This could be achieved by providing encouragement for people to go and work in the villages.
