26、others, but the city you live in can also affect your health. Some cities are hard on their residents. In places with poor city planning, for example Lagos, which was called out recently by the Economist Intelligence Unit, public spaces are few, making outdoor activities hard. Lack of infrastructure
27、 (基础建设) blocks the streets with cars and the air with pollutants, and residents work long hours for little money. These are just some of the factors added up by Spotahome, a rental agency. Theyve analyzed data from a range of sources, including the World Health Organization, TripAdvisor and the CIA

But for those commuters(
35、每日 往 返 上 班 者 ) questioning whether or not to board the next train, statistics may offer some reassurance. According to the scientific journal Bandolier, the lifetime odds of dying on a passenger train in the US are about one in 1, 871, 241. So trains are still one of the safest modes of transport; i
36、n 2013, 891 U S. fatalities were linked to rail travel, while 32, 700 people were killed in highway accidents. “Train accidents are rare,” Dr Zarembski, director of the railroad safety program, told The Huffington Post. “Accident rate in 2014 was 2.2 accidents per million train miles, this number ha
37、s been declining steadily.” But if you are still concerned about safetyor if you're just curious about which part of the train is the safest place to sitscience has an answer for that too. The front car of a train is the most dangerous place in the event of a headon collision, while the last car
38、 is less safe if the train is rearended(追尾). In fact, trains are nine times more likely to derail than to hit another train or car headon or to get hit from behind, according to the Federal Railroad Administration. The administration found that there were about 13，200 derailments from 2005 to 2014,
39、compared with about 1, 450 collisions. Studies suggest that broken rails or welds are the leading cause of derailment, and these problems more often cause derailments near the front of the train. Therefore, choosing a car located in the middle, or one or two back from the middle of the train may be
40、the safest bet, Ross Capon, president of the National Association of Railroad Passengers, told CBS New York. If you cant get a seat near the midpoint of a train, theres another potential safety factor you might want to considernamely, which way your seat is facing. “I prefer rear facing so that in m
41、ost cases you are pushed back into the seat in the event of an emergency braking application,” Zarembski said. In general, aisle(过道) seats are safer than window seats, where a passenger is more likely to 高 2017 级英语第 7页共 10 页 come in contact with broken glass or be thrown out of the train, Capon told
42、 CBS New York. Of course, in the very rare event of a catastrophic crash like Tuesday's, there's no guarantee that sitting in a certain place or facing a certain way means you'll escape being injured. 33. What does the underlined word “fatalities” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean? A. De

47、are often exposed to peer pressure and worry about how others view them.37Leadership requires being socially involved, but still honoring personal morals and standards.
