5.语言使用

Original Answer: Well, in the history class, the professor talks about the two problems of railway development. In the history class, the professor discusses two problems caused by ribbon development. (将"railway development"改为"ribbon development"，因为原文中讲的是"ribbon development"，而不是"railway development")

First of all, it is a practical approach, which is called traffic conduction in the city. Firstly, it creates a practical issue known as traffic congestion in cities. (修改了句子结构，使其更自然，并将"traffic conduction"改为正确的表达方式"traffic congestion")

For example, in London, there are so many new houses, and those new built houses become a barrier of the traffic, so there will always be a traffic jam in the London city. For instance, in London, numerous newly built houses along main roads act as barriers to traffic flow, resulting in constant traffic jams. (修改了句子结构，使其更自然，并使用了更高级的词汇)

And the other problem is that the scenery in the city is shamed because of the newly built houses. The second issue is that cityscapes are marred by these newly constructed homes. (修改了句子结构，使其更自然，并使用了更高级的词汇)

For example, the house will block the beautiful view. For example, these houses obstruct picturesque views. (简化了句子，并使用了更高级的词汇)

For example, in England, newly built homes along the coast road block the beautiful scenery of the ocean. In England, for instance, newly built homes along coastal roads block stunning ocean views. (修改了句子结构，使其更自然，并使用了更高级的词汇)

So these are two problems that are discussed in the history class, and scientists are finding ways to limit those two problems. These are the two problems discussed in the lecture, and governments have taken measures to address these issues. (修改了句子结构，使其更自然，并将"scientists"改为"governments"，因为原文中提到的是政府采取措施，而不是科学家)
