First and foremost, the success of a country is ultimately reflected by the

well-being of the people. It is true that the growth of total social wealth leads

to better lives for average people in general, but we cannot deny the fact that

in some countries, wealth accumulates much faster in upper classes than in

the working class. Sometimes, the gap is so wide that the poor ones actually

become poorer with the currency inflation that appears along with economic

growth. In other words, to ensure the healthy development of the society,

economic progress should benefit everyone with a scientific distribution

system.

Besides, the success of a country relies on the all-round development of

its younger generations. The cutting-edge scientific progress laying the path

to a promising future is mostly driven by well-educated and innovative young

people. For example, Mark Zackerburg, the founder  successfully

altered the online behaviour of hundreds and millions of netizens and made unprecedented contribution to the network industry. It is similar in other

industries, which urges for better education and opportunities for each one.

城市发展与住房

Tiny Homes Provide Affordable(看似简单的词，在说价格合理这样正面意思

的.时候用以取代 cheap，更精准) Urban Housing Options

According to the World Bank and numerous think tanks(智囊团), the

world’s cities will become increasingly urbanized in coming decades(在未来

几十年里，不要再老是用 in the future 这样烂大街的词汇了), with

accompanying challenges in finding affordable housing. A report by the

McKinsey Global Institute predicts that 1.6 billion people worldwide will

either be “financially stretched by housing costs” (注意这里 stretched 的用

法，指因房价上涨而造成经济紧张)or be living in “crowded, inadequate, and

unsafe housing.”

McKinsey defines affordable housing as that requiring no more than 30 per

cent of income.

Small, temporary, modular homes are one potential solution. Tim McCormick,

a product designer in Palo Alto, California, has devised a concept he calls

“Houselets,” described as “simple, mobile, modular building in available

space.” The term Houselets borrows from the idea of parklets, which are

small, temporary parks installed across one to three parking spaces.

According to McCormick, the concept arose from wondering what urban land

was relatively cheap and available. Parking spaces and parking lots came to

mind, as well as other idle parcels scattered around typical cities(be

scattered around cities 意指分散在城市各处，在说到 urbanisation 时很有用的

表达方式). Creating small, cheap, modular housing for those spaces has

resulted in the Houselets concept.

In addition to the ability to use cheap available land, key features of this

approach include:

Open source design: core features provide some standardization and accommodate

each builder’s unique ideas. The homes could be factory built by a professional

builder or built by the homeowner.

Modular design: a standardized structure can be built using common components,

such as perforated steel tubing, then completed with a variety of roofing, cladding

and interior systems.

Non-site specific and non-proprietary: modules can be moved, bought, sold, changed,

and combined more efficiently than standard housing options. They’re highly

adaptable to different sites and needs.
