Why do people go to crowded places?
Some people head to crowded places out of necessity. For instance, when commuting via public transport like subways or buses, bus and subway stations can get packed, and they have no choice but to endure the crowd. But then there are others who actually enjoy the buzz of a crowd(人群的活力). Humans are social creatures. Being around people can give them a sense of belonging, making it easier to shake off(摆脱) feelings of loneliness.
人们为什么要去拥挤的地方?
有些人去拥挤的地方是出于需要(给出个原因)。例如，当乘坐地铁或公共汽车等公共交通工具上下班时，公共汽车和地铁站可能会挤满人，他们别无选择，只能忍受人群带来的拥挤(进行解释)。但也有一些人确实喜欢嘈杂繁忙(第二个原因)。毕竟，人类是群居动物!和人们在一起可以给他们一种归属感，让他们更容易摆脱孤独(进行解释)。
Do you think it is a good trend to have more big cities?
Honestly, I don’t think it’s a positive trend. One major issue is that big cities tend to be quite similar. For example, if you visit the CBDs of Chengdu or Beijing, you'll see a lot of the same high-rise buildings and skyscrapers(摩天大楼). It’s often tough to find the unique character of these cities. As they keep growing, they might lose their unique vibe(独特氛围) and cultural touch(文化气息).
你认为有更多的大城市是一个好的趋势吗?
老实说，我不认为这是一个积极的趋势。一个主要问题是，大城市往往非常相似(给出原因)。例如，如果你去成都或北京的cbd，你会看到很多相同的高层建筑和摩天大楼。通常很难找到这些城市的独特之处。随着城市的不断发展，它们可能会失去其独特的氛围和文化气息(给出解释，充分展开)。
Which cities are overcrowded in your country?
I’d say there are plenty of overcrowded cities in China, like Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou. These are some of the most developed metropolises(大都市). People from rural areas, towns, and smaller cities often flock to(蜂拥) these urban centers in search of better job opportunities and education. So, it’s no surprise that public transport is often packed to the brim(到顶，满满当当), and there’s usually a line outside popular restaurants.
你们国家哪些城市过于拥挤?
我得说中国有很多拥挤的城市，比如上海、北京和广州(先直接回答问题)。这些都是一些最发达的大都市。来自农村、城镇和小城市的人们经常涌向这些城市中心，寻找更好的工作机会和教育(给出原因)。所以，公共交通经常挤满了人也就不足为奇了，热门餐馆外面通常会排起长队(补充现象)。<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>Today's expressions: 1⃣️ To the brim到顶，到了容器的边缘
