new technology leads to bigger cities in the 1800s, the united states was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. the industrial revolution began in great britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. the united states was slower than great britain to fully embrace the changes. yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in american urban areas. better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. the abundance caused food prices to fall. the expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states produce the first wave of american industry. more people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. thousands of immigrants to the united states also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas. as a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. as more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. they needed ways to move around the city. we call this process urbanization. in 1820, the united states had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. about seven percent of u. s. residents lived in urban areas. the number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the northeast and midwest. by 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. philadelphia and new york city were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents. the urbanization of the united states quickened due to technology improvements. without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. the trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. by 2007, more americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

serve the people! ,” smoothly translated by julia lovell, offers an initial sample of yan lianke’s writing to an english-speaking audience. a bluntly drawn, mildly erotic fable, it teases mao zedong by poking fun at a true believer who obeys the chairman’s precepts too literally. to a western sensibility, the broad strokes of yan lianke’s humor would seem to pose little risk of inciting rebellion, whether of the flesh or of the body politic. but then, part of the book’s attraction is that it doesn’t have a western sensibility. it lets the reader see — or rather, intuit — what jokes chinese officials don’t consider funny, and how very little it takes for a writer to be branded an incendiary in 21st-century china, more than three decades after the death of mao, a decade after the death of deng xiaoping and seven years since china entered the world trade organization, a move that would seem to signal a willingness (however wary) to mingle with the rest of the world.
