    阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。

Why are so many of us so anxious to get away from the small town or village where we were brought up, and to make for the big cities?    ① 

If we examine the question from a distance, we start to get a clue about what it is that attracts us into the big cities. The main point to notice about big cities is that there are a lot of people, and a lot of things going on. If you look down on a city, from an airplane at night, you will be struck by the brightness of a city: there are so many lights that you cannot help feeling that all the bright things of life are down there waiting for you.   ②  You will discover that the lights are not in themselves sources of joy and happiness: city lights are not friendly. In fact, the effect will probably be to make you feel lonely and isolated.
