Paper 4 : Reading(10 marks)
Think your city is best ?
See the latest ranking
The latest issue of Cities Ranked and Rated is just out. The book describs the top cities in
the USA. But what is it that makes a metropolis great(or bad) ?
Are you thinking about relocating or just curious how your city compares with others
across the nation? Well the answer to your questions are here as featured i the annually
updated book Cities Ranked and Rated. The authors of the book, Bert sterling and Peter
Sanders talked to us about their findings

I-Read the interview and match the questions 1-7 with the anwers A-G. (7 marks)
1. And what about older people, who are starting to think about retirement ? what do
they look for ?
2. If I’m young and single, just starting out, what places would I find attractive ?
3. And what if I have a family with kids ? Is that different ?
4. In generaal, what places make it to the top of the list ?
5. How did you decide who makes it to the top ?
6. Where there any suprises in your findings
7. And what about the bad news ?why does a city end up at the bottom of your list ?

A. We look at over a hundred pieces of information about each place. We group those
into nine categories including : economy,and jobs, cost of livving, climate, education,
arts and culture. Then we press a botton on the computer and that’s how we get the top
ten.
B. Cities with a university do especially well. They have plenty to do, nice city centres,
pleasant sorroundings and usually arent too crowded. The strengh in higher education
tends to affect all levels of education and most have excellent health care facilities.
Then there are the state capitals, which tend to be clean,have a good economic
situation and lots of cultural facilities-these are also good.
C. Yes, quite a few. For instance, highly ranked cities are found all across the country,
not just on the sunny coastlines like everybody thinks. There are a few big cities that

Right on 4 test booklet DCrom, tr 2 mp3

 we call the Big CityBargains. These are big cities with a low cost of living like
Pittsburg and Indianapolis.
D. Areas at the bottom typically have high levels of unemployment and crime and a high
cost of living combined with low levels of education, few facilities and not much to
do. However most of these cities recognise that there is a problem and they are
working to improve.
E. Younger single people are interested in places with jobs where they can build their
careers and make money. They want lively cities with lots to do, and of course lots of
other single people too ! Of course, the top ten cities would all be good places to live,
but for singles in particular, we would choose the Norfolk area in Virginia and San
Antonio, Texas.
F. Yes, families look for many things including good and affordable housing, quality
education, and more daytime facilities like parks, museums and outdoor recreation.
G. Well that in the important thing about this book. It won’t just help you decide where
you should be now, it’ll also you plan for the future too. People who are planning to
retire soon are thinking more about health care, leisure and oveall cost of living and
less about jobs, housing cost and education.
