阅读理解。 Green-space facilities are contributing to an important extent to the quality of the urban environment.
Fortunately it is no longer necessary that every lecture or every book about this subject has to start with
the proof of this idea. At present it is generally accepted although more as a self-evident statement than
on the base of a closely-reasoned scientific proof. The recognition of the importance of green-space in
the urban environment is a first step on the right way; this does not mean however that enough details
are known about the functions of greenspaces in towns and about the way in which the inhabitants (居民)
are using these spaces.
The theoretical separation of living working traffic and recreation which for many years has been
used in town-and-country planning has in my opinion resulted in disproportionate (不成比例的) attention
for forms of recreation far from home whereas (但是) there was relatively little attention for improvement
of recreative possibilities in the direct neighborhood of the home. We have come to the conclusion that this
is not right because an important part of the time which we do not pass in sleeping or working is used for
activities at and around home. So it is obvious that recreation in the open air has to begin at the street door
of the house. The urban environment has to offer as many recreation activities as possible and the design
of these has to be such that more obligatory(强制性的) activities can also have a recreative aspect.
The very best standard of living is nothing if it is not possible to take a pleasant walk in the district if the
children cannot be allowed to play in the streets because the risks of traffic are too great if during shopping
you can nowhere find a spot of enjoying for a moment the nice weather in short if you only feel yourself
at home after the street door of your house is closed after you. 1. According to the author the importance of greenspaces in the urban environment ____. A. is still unknown
