00:08

the new mediterranean place that just opened up across the

00:10

street but way have some reservations really All right check

00:16

out this passage Feel about moving here I stayed in

00:19

early us restaurants how many times you have to do

00:21

this thing that charge there's a little citation thing another

00:24

charge more citations and you weren't here Okay we're just

00:30

done the passage most strongly suggests that people were attracted

00:33

toe urban areas after world war two because why And

00:38

hear the potential answers Yeah Well first of all we

00:43

don't have to wonder if people were more attracted to

00:45

urban areas after the war because we're flat out told

00:48

that they were the only ask here is that we

00:50

determine why there is such a mass exodus from rural

00:54

areas cows and pigs finally rise up and drive him

00:57

away from their farms and call on that one Mr

01:00

orwell Yeah who's from ups good force from ups better

01:05

was it because be these areas had more dining options

01:08

Well you might be picturing a modern day city street

01:10

with a starbucks and subway on every other corner but

01:14

the reason so many eating establishments started topping up in

01:17

the first place was because so many people flooded into

01:20

cities to the increase in dining options was really more

01:23

the result of the rise in urban population and the

01:26

cause of it Could it be d There were more

01:29

cultural experiences in the city's well same deal results rather

01:33

than the cause There was no reason to put on

01:35

a production of cats or fiddler on the roof for

01:39

never before the cities were hugely populated but after they

01:42

got jam packed there was suddenly an audience for all

01:45

sorts of entertainment although their idea of entertainment might have

01:48

been slightly different back then Number bill All right so

01:52

yeah d is out next up See there was a

01:54

depression in rural areas Well not at all In fact

01:57

is the passage states Once the city's became more bustling

02:01

the rural areas actually profited With all the new eateries

02:04

popping up agriculture became mohr important and lucrative than ever

02:08

Because all those fruits veggies and meat products had to

02:10

come from somewhere And it's not like restaurant tours could

02:14

just run out to the corner of thirty fifth and

02:16

main and last so themselves a cow killing stuff So

02:20

see ain't it Which means our answers A These areas

02:23

had more job opportunities Yep If there was one thing

02:27

the city's had all over rural areas it was the

02:29

zillions of factory jobs All sorts of stuff needed to

02:33

be built Unfortunately because the technology wasn't so great back

02:36

then no robots plenty of stuff needed to be fixed

02:40

too Awesome More jobs So yeah believe it or not

02:43

there was a time in our history where not everything 00:02:46.23 --> [endTime] was made in china
