Many of us now live in gated communities（封闭式社区）. Only people who live there can go freely inside , and only their cars can pass through the gates . But are you hoping for a more open and convenient environment ?

There , the roads , shops and green areas are for everyone . “ Humans need communication and sharing . A good city needs to offer people enough space to do this , ” said Wang Weiqiang , a city planning expert from Tongji University . Turning gated communities into blocks（街区）is one way to achieve this , according to the Chinese government . On Feb 21 , the government said that gated communities should be open to the public .
