Having plenty of former industrial spaces that can be adapted for new uses, and a desire to be noticed on the national or global stage, encourages investment in urban regeneration from both public and private sources.Yet regeneration programmes inspired by

9、 the creative city agenda can cause problems. Property developers （地产开发商）and foreign investors have recognized the economic potential of real estate （房地产）in creative cities. This has led to rocketing land costs, and many low-income residents have felt the effects of being displaced from their homes.

10、Yet as more cities seek to emphasize their cultural assets （资产）,city leaders and policy makers must be aware of the negative impacts that can arise if local residents are not central to the decisionmaking process.

17、of Manhattan.A( (he cemetery, Morrie watched as they shoveled dirt into his mothers grave. He tried to recall the tender moments they had shared when she was alive. She had operated a candy store until she got sick, after which she mostly slept or sat by the window, looking frail and weak.Sometimes

18、she would yell out fbr her son to get her some medicine, and young Morrie, playing stickball in the street, would pretend he did not hear her. In his mind he believed he could make the illness go away by ignoring it.How else can a child deal with death?Morries father, whom everyone called Charlie, h

19、ad come to America to escape the Russian Anny. He worked in the fur business, but constantly out of a job.

She had a glow （光）that warmed the otherwise murky atmosphere his father created.She talked when her new husband was silent, she sang songs to the children at night. Morrie took comfort in her smoothing

24、 voice, her school lessons, her strong character. When his brother returned from the medical home, still wearing braces from the polio, the two of them shared a rollaway bed in the kitchen of their apartment, and Eva would kiss them good-night. Morie waited on those kisses like a puppy waits on milk

36、ensuring that those viewpoints arc heard and respected.
