It’s estimated that one-third of the countries of the world are very rich, and two thirds are very poor. People in the richer countries don’t understand the great differences between them and those in the poorer countries. A very simple example is that a dog or a cat in North America is better than a child in the poorer countries. A fisherman in South America may catch the fish which is made into pet food while the children in poor countries are not getting enough to eat for their bodies to grow properly. Although a lot of the world’s natural resources come from these poorer countries, it’s the richer countries that decide what kind of price they are ready to pay for these resource.

What percentage do the poor countries account for in the world（）

[单项选择]In the last third of the nineteenth century a new housing form was quietly being developed. In 1869 the Stuyvesant, considered New York’s first apartment house, was built on East Eighteenth Street. The building was financed by the developer Rutherfurd Stuyvesant and designed by Richard Morris Hunt, the first American architect to graduate from the cole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Each man had lived in Paris, and each understood the economic and social potential of this Parisian housing form. But the Stuyvesant was at best a limited success.
