Answer 1

I agree with the answer above, A and B are definititly not true, and D was abit if-fy. C and E however were pretty clear choices to be right answers. So I would go with C and E.

Answer 2

The correct options are:

C. The number of people living in urban areas is expected to rise.

D. In 1950, more people lived in rural areas than in urban areas.

E. Between 2005 and 2010, the number of people in urban areas surpassed those in rural areas.

A and B are incorrect because the urban population has already surpassed the rural one in 2010 and the general tendency is for rural areas to decline. C, D, and E are correct because, while in 1950 the rural population was higher than the urban, between 2005 and 2010 the urban population surpassed the rural residents and the general tendency is for urban areas to keep rising.
