New yorkers may have a hard time admitting it,but Chicago is the birthplace of the skyscraper.The Home Insurance Building in Chicago,Illinois,USA was born after the Great Chicago fare in 1871 .The city,formerly made largely from wood,was being rebulit in stone,iron,and a new material called steel.The building boom helped the economy grow and stuctures in the city's cental Loop area reached higher and higher to meet people's demand for space.but the problem that architects and engineers ran into was that as their building s grew in height,they also became thicker,darker,and less attractive to tenants.Taller buildings needed stronger walls.Walls were made stronger by making them thicker.That left less and less space for windows.

The New Yorkers we talked to were very nice.
we talked to 应该是The New Yorkers 的从句.
是这样的,不明白的是to能不能去掉...一般碰到句子,只要to啊,什么的介词,后面
是空的,那种句子我就开始晕了...
能否多讲讲,这类东西啊,就是介词后面不带东西的句子...

不可以,其实yorkers后面是省略了who/that 把先行词New Yorkers代进去后巨资才是完整的,一般介词或to 都是很少省略的.遇到这种题,把先行词带进从句里,做的时候清晰很多.
About 1 million adult New Yorkers are obese(肥胖的), but nearly
About 1 million adult New Yorkers are obese(肥胖的), but nearly two-thirds of them don’t think they are, according to a study released on Tuesday by the city’s Department of Health and Mental Hygiene(卫生).
Among the obese, who account for about one in five New Yorkers, only 39% described themselves as “very overweight”, according to the report. 2% said they were very underweight, 1% said they were slightly underweight, 16% said they were just right and 42% said they were slightly over weight.
Some 2 million more New Yorkers are overweight, the report said, and one in five children in kindergarten is obese.
Only 44% of the city’s adults are at a healthy weight, and nearly 75% say they do not participate in(参加) any regular physical activity.
New York City’s adult obesity rate was 20% in 2003 compared with 23% nationwide in 2004.The national average has nearly doubled from 12% in 1993, the report said.
Overweight and obese are defined by body mass index, or BMI (=" kg/m)" , which is based on a person’s weight , adjusted(调整) for height, the department said.
Being obese means having a BMI of 30 or greater, while being overweight means a BMI of more than 25 but less than 30.
A 5-foot, 10-inch (1.78-meter) man weighing 175 pounds(79kg) would have a BMI of 25.1 and be considered overweight according to the department . If he weighed 210 pounds (95kg), he would have a BMI of 30.1 and be obese.
The report came from results of the department’s 2002 and 2003 yearly telephone surveys of some 10,000 adults.
