There are two main reasons why these and other cities are becoming so crowded: one economic and other socio-cultural.【 M1】 _ Undoubtedly, the primary cause for cities becoming so crowded is economic. With a country develops, its cities become【 M2
11、】 _ the engines of development. Furthermore, many jobs are available【 M3】 _ in these areas.

16、be more than enough but gifts are the ornaments of mutual love and respect. Choosing the right gift for the right person may either be a pleasure or a pain in the chest.
