        　　High-rise buildings have their advantages and disadvantages, of course. In urban areas where land is expensive, they take up less space. Some people say that high-rise buildings can give a city striking beauty. Some buildings are apartments, which can house hundreds of families under one roof.On the other hand, high-rise buildings may be dangerous.What if there is a fire or an earthquake？What if power and water are in short supply？
