To understand the most important characteristics of a society, one must study its major cities.

Many people would support the claim that major cities represent the most important characteristic [ word form error ] of a society. While this may be true even in the majority of cases, there are still situations where focusing the study on major cities distort the reality. In fact, studies of a society should include much more areas, especially [including  ] the rural region.

One strong piece of evidence in support of this statement [unclear/what statement  ] is that in most cases, the [ article error ] (government , parliament, legislature, and judiciary authorities) [these bodies are not separate; one start arm may contain another  ] are grouped in cities. To know about the political structure and institution [ unclear/ social institution may also include political infrastructure/structure ] of a society, studying its major cities, the capital in particular, is a necessity. For instance, in the United States of America, senators and [ house ] representatives congregate to [preposition error  ] Washington D.C. in order to enact legislation, thus making it necessary to keep abreast of what’s happening in the capital.

Nevertheless, a critical flaw in the argument is that this method only applies to certain regions. For the wide range of developing areas where the majority of population still lives in the countryside, this argument is only of extremely limited value. Therefore, it’s totally possible that scholars, by focusing their attention on the megacities, ignore a more complete picture of [ article error ] local society. While studying a society whose rural residents account for more than half of the population, a more useful and informative means is to conduct researches [ word form error ] on the rustic region, like studying the lifestyle, feelings, and political stances of farmers, instead of holding on to studying the urban areas.

Furthermore, as a society is complex and has many different aspects, to have an overall understanding of it requires a comprehensive, [ and an ] objective analysis. Before the researchers progressing on with confidence [ grammatical error ] , they would always need to establish basic background knowledge. In light of the example above, knowing about the degree of urbanization is a necessity, which is an essential step for them to allocate finite resources in a reasonable way. For those whose object [wrong word  ] of study is an undeveloped country in South Asia, (assigning their funds and human resources) [ confusion ] to studying [ article error ] village is, obviously, a sensible decision.

In conclusion, while the statement correctly notes the role of the [ article error ] major cities in understanding the [article error  ] main characteristics of a society, there are far more important factors that must be taken into account (than a single factor of cities) [ misplaced ] . [ punctuation error with coordinating conjunction use ] And in some situations, concentrating on the [ article error ] urban areas may even weaken the effectiveness of research results.
