[11:39.45]Communities
[11:45.80]There are many different kinds of communities around the world.
[11:54.76]Communities can be urban(in a city.),suburban(near a city),
[12:04.04]or rural (in the countryside,far from a city).
[12:10.57]Urban communities usually have many neighborhoods,
[12:17.23]where people often live close together in apartment buildings or small houses.
[12:25.90]Streets in these neighborhoods often have lots of people
[12:32.25]an many stores and businesses.
[12:37.71]People in urban negihborhoods often walk or take public transportation
[12:45.36]to get to places.
[12:49.44]In suburban communities,poeple typically live in separate houses.
[12:58.50]Stores and businesses are not usually nearby,
[13:05.35]and people often have to drive to get there.
[13:11.30]Some suburban communities have public transportation,and others don't.
[13:20.37]In rural communities,
[13:25.41]people often live far apart from each other,not in neighborhoods.
[13:32.98]There isn't usually any public transportation,
[13:39.23]and people have to drive everywhere.
[13:44.69]Whether in urban,suburban,or rural areasm,some communities are friendly,
[13:54.04]and others aren't.For example,in some communities,
[14:01.12]people know their neighbors,they help each other,
[14:06.58]and their children play together all the time.In other communities,
[14:14.62]people keep to themselves and sometimes don't even know their neighbors'names.
[14:23.69]In the old days,nost people around the world lived in small towns and villages,
[14:33.67]where they knew their neighbors.
[14:38.34]These days,more people live in large urban communities.
[14:45.89]Experts predict that in the future
[14:51.06]most people will live in"megacities"of more than ten million people.
[14:59.32]Will there be friendly neighborhoods in these communities of the future?
[15:07.26]Time will tell.
