生活条件—教育条件—个人发展
The reasons may go as follows. First of all, after the reform and opening-up, the economy took off and thus hundreds of millions of people flooded into cities in search of better jobs and a brighter future.
The reasons may go as follows. First of all, after the reform and opening-up, the economy took off and thus hundreds of millions of people flooded into cities in search of better jobs and a brighter future. In addition, it has been a trend for the new generation from rural areas to stay in cities where they can get higher education, because rural residents lack enough opportunities to explore their potentials and realize their self-value.

In addition, it has been a trend for the new generation from rural areas to stay in cities where they can get higher education, because rural residents lack enough opportunities to explore their potentials and realize their self-value. Last but not the least, the land left for individuals to farm is quite limited—some people have to leave their hometown to work elsewhere, especially in large cities.
Therefore, in my opinion ,such a tendency will still continue in the next decades. It ‘s high time to make a balanced development of the rural areas and the urban areas, so as to make our homeland a harmonious family.
This pie chart shows where the spending of residents in an unnamed city goes during the spring festival.

As far as I am concerned, it is hardly surprising that gifts make up a significant portion of a person’s spending. Due to the great urbanization, most Chinese residents move from their hometowns to work in big cities. During the spring festival, nearly all people will return home to unite with their family. In order to cover the long distance, a large amount of money is spent on transportation. Buying new year gifts for their children, parents or relatives is an important part of the new year celebration.
In summary, Spring Festival is the most important occasion for all Chinese , so the top choice is always giving presents . Most of all , it conforms to the Chinese cultural belief of valuing interpersonal relationship.

As can be seen clearly from the chart above, dramatic changes took place in the cars market shares from 2008 to 2009 . The most dramatic change occurred in the market share of domestic car brands, which increased by nearly 10%, while Japan’s car market share decreased by about 10%. The percentage of the US cars remained stable in the same period.

Three reasons, in my opinion , can account for the changes in car market in these two years. In the first place, with optimization of techniques in local companies, various brands of quality cars turn out and win the recognition of our own customers. Moreover, recent reports on Toyota brake loopholes affect customers’ mindset significantly, preventing some potential customers from making the final choice. Additionally,

In the first place, with optimization of techniques in local companies, various brands of quality cars turn out and win the recognition of our own customers. Moreover, recent reports on Toyota brake loopholes affect customers’ mindset significantly, preventing some potential customers from making the final choice. Additionally, the improvement of American cars’ performance must be attributed to the smart marketing strategy employed by American sellers . They launched a lot of marketing campaigns designed specially for Chinese markets, which won them applaud as well as profits .
In order to maintain the good momentum of development, on one hand , domestic cars should stick to their self-independent policy, and on the other hand, they should learn some experiences from Japanese car’s failures and Americans’ success.
