Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to lớn indicate the correct answer to lớn each of the questions from 28 to lớn 34.

        Cities develop as a result of functions that they can perform. Some functions result directly from the ingenuity of the citizenry, but most functions result from the needs of the local area and of the surrounding hinterland (the region that supplies goods to lớn the đô thị and to lớn which the đô thị furnishes services and other goods). Geographers often make a distinction between the situation and the site of a đô thị. Situation refers to lớn the general position in relation to lớn the surrounding region, whereas site involves physical characteristics of the specific location. Situation is normally much more important to lớn the continuing prosperity of a đô thị. If a đô thị is well situated in regard to lớn its hinterland, its development is much more likely to lớn continue. Chicago, for example, possesses an almost unparalleled situation: it is located at the southern kết thúc of a huge lake that forces east-west transportation lines to lớn be compressed into its vicinity, and at a meeting of significant land and water transport routes. It also overlooks what is one of the world’s finest large farming regions. These factors ensured that Chicago would become a great đô thị regardless of the disadvantageous characteristics of the available site, such as being prone to lớn flooding during thunderstorm activity.

        Similarly, it can be argued that much of Thành Phố New York City’s importance stems from its early and continuing advantage of situation. Philadelphia and Boston both originated at about the same time as Thành Phố New York and shared New York’s location at the western kết thúc of one of the world’s most important oceanic trade routes, but only Thành Phố New York possesses an easy-access functional connection (the Hudson-Mohawk lowland) to lớn the vast Midwestern hinterland. This trương mục does not alone explain New York’s primacy, but it does include several important factors. Among the many aspects of situation that help to lớn explain why some cities grow and others bởi not, original location on a navigable waterway seems particularly applicable. Of course, such characteristic as slope drainage, power resources, river crossings, coastal shapes, and other physical characteristics help to lớn dertermine đô thị location, but such factors are normally more significant in early stages of đô thị development phàn nàn later.

The word “it” in paragraph 2 refers to _________.

A. account

B. primacy

C. connection
