31、er. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8 million. But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897, and two years later

32、, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold.

40、lin Kesebir of the London Business School explored the benefits of social networking strategies in two studies currently published in the journal Psychological Science.One reason that Americans may prefer a large social network, the researchers claim, is because Americans move around a lot.

A narrow, deep networking strategy, on the other hand, would be

42、ideal if people tend to stay in one place and economic conditions arent as favorable.In the first study, they created a model that simulated （模拟）the benefits individuals received from their social network under various socioeconomic conditions. The researchers were able to simulate people who have d

43、ifferent numbers of friends at different levels of friendship, and they were also able to account for the investment required by each type of friendship.
