問題詳情

閱讀測驗第四篇：         Singapore is home to approximately five million people in an area of only about 700 square kilometers. Itdoes not have abundant resources and was once a massive swamp. It imports much of its water and nearly all of its food. Yet Singapore enjoys excellent education and health systems, low taxes, and a per capita income greater than that of most countries. In fact, at 15.5%, the country has the highest concentration of millionaires on earth. How did such a small country, now one of the most urban countries in the world, manage to get so much?         Singapore has done a very good job of planning and designing its future, and it has paid off. Among these great plans are its housing policy, land reclamation projects, and transportation system. Take transportation as an example. Its Mass Rapid Transit system allows all areas to be accessed easily by rail, reducing road use substantially. Bus stations and train stations are built over each other to make efficient use of space and allow ease of access between transportation modes.         Singapore has had an annual growth rate in its gross domestic product of about 8% since 1965, unemployment is always down around 3%, and personal savings are very strong. Aside from its primary industries of finance, manufacturing, and communications, Singapore is working toward being a global leader in information technology. Its citizens are among the best educated in the world. Singapore’s future prospects are very bright indeed.
