Two-thirds of people in the world will be living in cities by 2050 and the boom will be
concentrated in India, China and Nigeria, according to United Nations estimates released on
Wednesday. The world’s rural population will peak in a few years then decline by 2050, according to
the report by the UN’s population division.
Tokyo is currently the world’s largest city with 37 million people, followed by Delhi with 29
million, Shanghai with 26 million, and Mexico City and São Paulo, each with around 22 million
inhabitants. Cairo, Mumbai, Beijing and Dhaka all have close to 20 million inhabitants. However, Delhi
will overtake Tokyo in top spot by around 2028, the report said. At about the same time, India is
expected to surpass China as the country with the world’s largest total population.
Around 55% of the world’s population lives in urban areas today, increasing to 68% by 2050.
India, China and Nigeria will account for more than a third of that expansion. There will also be more
megacities. In 1990, there were just 10 megacities, classed as places with populations of 10 million or
3
more. There are now 33 megacities and by 2030, 43 megacities are projected, mostly in developing
countries.
However, a few cities in Japan and South Korea – for example, Nagasaki and Busan – have
experienced population decline since 2000. Several cities in Eastern Europe, such as Poland, Romania,
Russia and Ukraine, have lost population since the turn of the century. However, urbanization could be
seen as positive, said John Wilmoth, director of the population division. “The increasing concentration
of people in cities provides a way of more economically providing services,” he said. “We find that urban
populations have better access to health care and education.” The concentration of population may also
help to minimize our environmental impact on the planet, he said, and help cities design policies and
practices to prepare for the influx.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42
When I was a teenager playing Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed series, I definitely wasn't looking to
learn things. But with 11 main AC games all set during different times and places in history — like
ancient Egypt, Greece, and America during the Revolutionary War — I was bound to learn something,
even if just by accident. And I definitely did.
One day, my history teacher passed out blank maps of the Caribbean. It was a quiz I had forgotten
about. We had to label countries and major cities. Luckily, I'd been playing a lot of Assassin's Creed:
4
Black Flag, set in the Caribbean during the golden age of piracy in the early 18th century. So I was able
to draw on my life as a pirate to fill in the map, and I got an A.
When I was seven, I learned to multiply quickly through a purely educational game called
Treasure Mountain!, which had me solving math problems to progress up a mountain and collect
treasure in a never-ending loop. And then, of course, there was Assassin's Creed.
Ubisoft leaned into AC's educational potential, with very cool results. They did a lot of research
to recreate Ancient Egypt in AC: Origins and Ancient Greece in AC: Odyssey, and they released an
educational discovery tour for each game that lets you look around the environment with no violence,
enemies, or time constraints. You can learn about the Olympic Games, and how Sparta trained its
soldiers in ancient Greece, with real historical figures acting as your tour guides. Or jump over to
ancient Egypt to check out mummies and climb on the pyramids.
Obviously, Assassin's Creed can't teach you everything you need to know about the ancient
world — but the games do make that world come alive for people who are reluctant to learn, like I was.
If you're looking for some other options, Minecraft is incredibly popular with kids of any age.
Minecraft: Education Edition is free for everybody with a student email until at least June 30, and
features over 500 pre-made lesson plans for things like coding, history, English, and much more. For
example, there is a lesson plan on how to write clear instructions for in-game actions, and another that
lets kids learn about slopes by building a roller coaster.
