20、2Although buses tend to be slower than the subway for traveling around New York City, there are many reasons to use the bus while visiting New York City: They tend to service areas of Manhattan that are not located close to subway lines.

27、ed laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you“re “hot“.

31、ange your cycle, but you“ll get up steam and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch.

Owing to the la

38、ck of a comprehensive dictionary of abbreviations and the diverse definitions of abbreviations among subject areas, it is common practice in most scholarly publications to include in an appendix (目录) at the end of the book a list of the abbreviations used. Another method is to explain the abbreviati

39、on to the reader the first time it appears.

Secondly, rural areas have become less populated and this causes a decrease in the production of food. Thirdly, there is a high urban population growth rate. Fourthly,

44、there is a dramatic pressure on the supply of social services, especially those services related to education and health, and finally uncontrolled urbanization leads to an excess of labor supply in the cities. There are a few policies, which could show this kind of uncontrolled urbanization in devel

45、oping countries. A more equal land distribution should be promoted. In this way farmers would be more motivated to stay on the land. Also, the supply of social services in the rural areas has to be improved, particularly in the field of health and education. Most importantly, it is necessary to give
