【解析】人们对土地的利用各不相同，人们考虑他们的兴趣和他们的工作需求而选择他们想居住的类型或社区。本文对比了城市，近郊和农村的功能和特点。

【1】living 考查现在进行时态。现在进行时态的构成为am/ is/ are + doing。一些地方高楼紧凑，人们就彼此毗邻而居。

【2】interests 此处是指人们的兴趣爱好，用复数形式。

【3】is 考查there be句型。本句的主语是lots of space，为不可数名词，用is。

【4】for 考查介词。for 对…来说。

【5】the 考查冠词的固定用法。the same 一样，相同的，同样的。

【6】to do 考查不定式作定语。在城市里有许多要做和要看的东西。

【7】called 考查过去分词作定语。called为过去分词，跟中心词a suburban area之间是被动关系，郊区，也被叫做suburbs，位于城外。

【8】but 考查并列连词but。郊区位于大城市之外，但是离得不太远。

【9】where 考查where引导的宾语从句。where they work（他们工作的地方）为名词性从句，在介词near之后作宾语。

【10】more考查比较级。根据后面than in the city可知，此处应用比较级形式more。more space 更多的空间。
