This passage is mainly about______.
Over 2,000 years ago, Rome was the center of a large empire. The Romans needed a way to move their large armies quickly so that they could protect their huge country. They needed land trade routes. So they joined all the parts of their empire by a network of roads.
Beginning in 300 B.C., the Romans built roads in Europe, Asia, and North Africa. By A.D. 200, they had built 50,000 miles of almost straight highways.
To build their fine highways, the Romans began by removing all soft soil. They dug until they reached hard ground. Then they added layers of stone and cement. The most important roads were paved with large, fiat stones. Main Roman roads were sometimes as wide as our three-lane highways.
To build their roads, the Romans sometimes had to dig tunnels through mountains. They did not have explosives to cut through rocks. They heated the rock with fire and then threw cold water over it. When the rock cracked, they dug it out with hand tools.
Roman soldiers and slavers built the roads without powerful machines. They had only simple tools, such as shovels and picks. Yet the roads were so well built that they were used for hundreds of years.

中国一些农村地区容易遭灾,使农民收入很难逐年增加。个人对于自然灾害可能无计可施,但政府要认真对待灾难的预测,以便把灾难造成的损失减少到最低程度。亲自到农村看看是了解社会现实的好机会。虽然长远规划不一定产生预计的效果,但至少能提醒人们经济要向哪个方向发展。
