existence of fully planned cities in ancient times. Over the years, humans have made some mistakes in terms of using an excessive amount of resources for cities. This gives rise to the question of how sustainable the cities of the future would be. We might be looking at smart cities in which street lights would only switch on when you are close by and traffic light would be eliminated by smart driving. The cities of the future would try to save our resources rather than deplete them. An example of an advanced city is Kansas. Plans are in place to make Kansas a smart futuristic city in the future. Planners are considering introducing sensors to monitor the water mains. Warning would be issued to city officials when the infrastructure requires repair or replacement. In this way, the city would never be at risk of having broken pipes. While the idea sounds fantastic, a large amount of rational critique has called this plan an oversold dream. Amy Glasmier is an urban planning professor at MIT. She is a smart city skeptic who believes that all the research and talk is great but gravely oversold. 36. City planning is thought _____________. A. to have become a profession for about a hundred years B. to have existed professionally since ancient times C. to have come into existence to transform nature D. to make more land and created artificial islands to make skyscrapers 37.

All of the following statements may be true about smart cities EXCEPT that _____________. A. street lights automatically switch on when necessary B. traffic light would be controlled by smart driving C. smart driving wouldn’t need traffic light D. cities in the future would conserve energy 39.
