Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of 
the questions from 26 to 30.
 Urbanisation in Malaysia started in the early 1970s. At that time, only around 26 per cent of the 
population lived in urban areas. After a period of rapid growth, the urban and rural populations were 
almost equal in the early 1990s. Since then, the urbanisation rate has continued to increase gradually. The 
urban population, for example, rose from 66 per cent in 2004 to 74 per cent in 2014. At present, Malaysia 
is known as one of the most urbanised countries in East Asia. It is also one of the most rapidly urbanised 
regions around the world. According to the latest statistics, over 77 per cent of Malaysia's total population 
now live in urban areas and cities.
 Australia is an interesting example of early urbanisation, which started at the end of the 19th century. 
At that time, over 60 per cent of the population lived in urban areas. Since then, it has maintained a gradual 
growth. This was also due to the country's immigration policy, which encouraged people to settle in its 
coastal, urban areas. Australia is now one of the most urbanised countries in the world, with almost 90 
per cent of the population living in urban areas. The two largest cities of Australia, Sydney and Melbourne, 
are home to over 40 per cent of the country's population.
