Listening and Speaking introduces the topic of “ask about online habits”. Many middle school students have been surfing the Internet for many years, but what they do with the Internet and how much time they spend every day may not be very clear to themselves, nor to other students. This section allows students to investigate their peers' Internet use, which is conducive to their mutual understanding and understanding of the Internet. It can also help them reflect on their own online behavior, learn from other people's good online habits, and get rid of their bad online behavior.The listening text of this section is an investigation interview. The investigators interview specific groups with the same questions to obtain information, so as to understand their views, practices or attitudes on this issue.

1.改善城市环境:治理河流、控制大气污染物、大力加强绿化建设为改善城市环境,上海市全面展开对大气、河流、噪声等多方面的治理工作。如苏州河的治理、降低城市污染物浓度、加强绿化建设,截止1990年,市区绿化覆盖率达到20.3%。2.改善城市交通、改善居住条件扩宽主干道,修建环城公路,修筑了南浦大桥和扬浦大桥,新修城市高架公路和地铁,改造住宅。3.控制城市规模建立卫星城,开发新区,有效地控制城市中心区的规模。思考:什么时候许多国家采取措施保护和改善城市环境?你认为可以采取哪些措施来保护和改善城市环境?上海市保护和改善城市环境的措施:上海的卫星城有哪些?上海新建了哪个新区?目前浦东新区在上海的地位如何?建立卫星城和开发新区可以起到什么作用?上海市为改善交通条件,做了哪些工作?
过渡:在实际生活中,城市内部空间结构并非完全按照这一经济规律呈现,而是更具复杂性。这说明除了经济因素外,还有很多其他因素在起作用,请大家结合你的认识、图2.9和案例1:纽约市的少数民族区谈谈你的看法。(2)其他因素I收入——形成不同级别住宅区的常见原因。有能力支付昂贵租金和选择最佳居住环境的人,其居住地往往形成高级住宅区。II知名度——城市内某些地区在历史、文化或经济方面具有很高的声誉,这往往会吸引更多新的住宅或商场建在该处,以提高其知名度。III种族聚居区的形成——在有些城市的某一区域内,如果某个种族或宗教团体占优势,就可能形成种族聚居区。如纽约市的唐人街、哈林区、小意大利区等。IV历史因素——城市的建筑物和街道设计可以维持久远,早期的土地利用方式对日后的功能分区有着深远的影响。
