Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the statement and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider ways in which the statement might or might not hold true and explain how these considerations shape your position.
In order to understanding the most important characteristics of a society, whether it is necessary to study its major cities depends on what kind of characteristic needed to be studied.
If one wants to study economic characteristics, he must study the society’s major cities because major cities, especially metropolitan cities, are always the economic and financial center of a country.举例：美国纽约，英国伦敦，中国上海
If one wants to study characteristics of transportation, he needs to study different kinds of cities including major cities and small towns because transportation of a society may be different in different cities.举例：意大利的威尼斯以及其他城市。
If one wants to study characteristics of agriculture, there is great possibility that he does not need to study major cities because agriculture is mainly developed in rural area.举例：美国中西部地区主要发展农业。

我觉得这道题需要作者来决定the most important characteristics是什么
而这可能取决于这个社会的类型
或许你一开始就可以先确定 the most important characteristics 是什么
The most important characteritics of a society include its political system, economic structure and the public school system. To understand each of the aspect of a society, it is important to study its major cities as well as smaller towns and the rural areas because the politcal, economic and educational institutions differ greatly among major cities, small towns and rural areas.
这样写实际建立一个3X3的矩阵 或许过于复杂 也可以只写 majoe cities vs. rural area
要不你试下按这个主旨句 写三个主题句及汉语展开 TS
The speaker claims that one must study its major cities so as to understand the most important characteristics of a society. Well, it is true that some maga-cities do can present some of the most important characteristics of a society, but the importance of other cities--medium or small in size--should be paid considerable attention to completely and fully grasp the picture of the society`s important characteristics.
ts1
First of all, it is can not be deniable that major cities are the concentration of fashion, economy, arts and even cultures, and so could vividly present some of the society`s modern characteristics. 比如，中国的北京、上海，相对的是经济、文化、艺术、政治中心，其所体现出来的一些相关的特征，可以说就是中国社会的特征。
ts2
Second, it can not be ignored that the role and importance of major cities in reflecting society`s characteristics are significantly limited and can not of course show the whole picture with details. 毕竟，像北京、上海这样的城市比较少，而且所占面积及人口在全国范围内来说并不算大，社会是多元性的，那大城市并不能完全囊括所有地区所有城市的主要特征，比如东北地区的哈尔滨，西南的昆明，东南的三亚，西北的西安等等。
ts3
Finally, it is just the truth that some important characteristics of the society actually lie in some other medium and small cities rather than major cities. 比如说，园林艺术，是在苏州比较有代表性，而丰富的夜生活及饮食文化，则是在成都在重庆，高纬度的生活及文化特征，则是在哈尔滨。尤其是惬意、浪漫的悠闲生活，则是一些相对比较小的城市比较有代表性，比如大理、香格里拉、三亚。
