cities listed as “ the world's best.”

small hotels and cafes. Beautiful mountains are around the city. Lots of people go sightseeing there

every year. But air pollution is a problem in the city center.

Hong Kong, CHINA

This lively city-- once a small

fishing village-- is today an international

business

center. It is an interesting mix of East and West, old and new. Modern tall buildings are next to small

temples (庙宇). Popular nightclubs are close to traditional teahouses. Busy people fill the streets at

all hours of the day. But outside the city, there are parks for walking

or relaxing. Hong Kong is famous

for its wonderful native dishes. There's also food from Europe, North America, and other parts of Asia.

However, this small city has a large population of nearly seven million! That's why housing is often

very expensive. Traffic and air pollution are also a problem.

C . The air

D . The traffic

(2)What makes Hong Kong the world's best according to this passage?
