　　范文解析

　　开头段

　　交代背景“一个国家的工业化和城市化大大提高了公民的生活水平。然而，许多人断言发展的成就城市超过农村，并产生了许多问题”，表示“应采取措施解决问题”。

　　背景句：The industrialization and urbanization of a country have massively improved the living standard of its citizens. However, many people assert that the developmental achievements have benefited cities much more than rural areas and a series of problems have arisen.

　　话题介绍：This essay will discuss the problems and then offer feasible solutions to cope with the situation.

　　主体段 1

　　高度发达的大都市区占据了多数的优质资源，提供了大量的就业和商业机会，导致大量年轻农村居民涌入城市寻求机会，直接导致欠发达地区的劳动力和资金严重短缺。

　　主题句：The imbalance of economic and social progress between rural and urban areas is starkly visible and have triggered a number of problems.

　　平行列举：First, the highly developed metropolitan areas have occupied the quality resources of education, medical service, finance, commerce and entertainment, providing numerous opportunities in employment and business. As a result, a large number of young rural dwellers crowd into the city to pursue education, hunt jobs and make investments, directly leading to the severe shortage of available labour force and capital in the underdeveloped places. The loss in population and finance would inevitably worsen the overall economic development in rural districts.

　　主体段 2

　　由于农村和城市居民的受教育程度、职业和收入不同，可能导致农村居民进城务工的时候收到歧视。

　　主题句：The second problem resides in the aftermath of rural-urban migration.

　　平行列举：As a multicultural destination, the city holds a huge population with diverse backgrounds in terms of education, profession, income, social class, and even accent. Individuals from underdeveloped places tend to have less professional competence and personal wealth, due to the lack of educational and commercial resources in rural areas. Such discrepancy might trigger discrimination towards the rural residents who struggle their way through the urban jungle. What's worse, the widening wealth gap might even force the poorer ones to commit crimes to obtain more material possession.

　　结尾段

　　可采取措施解决发展不平衡的问题，如政府应该帮助农村居民利用当地资源发展旅游和商业贸易产业;在农村地区的教育系统中投入更多的劳动力和资金;还需要立法和监管来打击与歧视和暴力有关的行为。

　　Several solutions could be taken into account to improve the situation. The government should help rural residents exploiting local resources, such as natural landscape and specialty products, to develop industries in tourism and commercial trade. Once the industries are on the rise, job opportunities would be generated, along with a growing business revenue and average income. In addition, more workforce and fund should be invested into the education system in rural areas. If rural dwellers could obtain a specific skill or a certain academic qualification, they would be more professionally competent and employable. Furthermore, legislation and regulation are also required to fight against conduct related to discrimination and violence.
