Question

Read the programme information. What do you think the writer means by 'London is a world in a city'?

Answer

When the writer says 'London is a world in a city', he / she is probably referring to the 8.6 million inhabitants, consisting of people who come from all over the world. There are more than 300 languages spoken in the city, so there are representatives from many world countries living in London.
