　　How to Solve the Housing Problem in Big Cities?

　　With the development of modern industry, more and more people are flowing into big cities. Accordingly, the housing problem in big cities is becoming much more serious. People in the big city are complaining housing shortage and roaring price of the housing.

　　As we know, the temptation and opportunities provided by big cities attract people who want to make a fortune in big cities, which is the major cause of housing problem in big cities. Besides, house vacancy and speculating in the housing market are becoming the tough problem. We can’t deny the housing problem has brought about great pressure to the low-income families. Meanwhile, solving this problem will affect the public’s confidence on the government.

　　To solve this problem, I think building satellite cities in the suburbs is more practical. The fresh air and beautiful scenery in the suburbs will pull many people from the overcrowded city and alleviate the pressure of housing.

　　如何解决大城市住房问题?

　　虽然现代工业的发展，越来越多的人涌进大城市，大城市的住房问题相应地也越来越严重。人们开始抱怨房源短缺和房价飙升。

　　众所周知，大城市的诱惑和提供的机会吸引人们去赚钱，这也是大城市住房问题的主要原因。另外，空房和房地产投机也是严峻的问题。我们无法否认住房问题对低收入家庭带来了不小的压力。同时，对于这个问题的解决也会影响到政府公信力。

　　为了解决这个问题，我认为在郊区建卫星城市是一种更实际的办法。郊区的新鲜空气和美景可以把人吸引出过度拥挤的城市，从而缓解住房压力。
