Question

【題目】

Are you the only child in your family? Have you heard of “the two-child policy (政策)”? Everyone knows the one-child policy. It was a population control method in our country. Chinese government wanted to control the increasing population at that time. Many Chinese couples understood that and followed this policy for nearly 40 years.

However, as time goes by, some problems appear in our society. At present, these problems are mainly about:

●The number of workers changed from about 960 million in 2010 to 940 million in 2012. The number changed to 930 million in 2014 and will possibly fall by 29 million by 2020.

●China is now getting into an aging society. There will be more old people in the following years. But the society will be short of doctors and nurses to take care of them.

●The population of China will become smaller and smaller if one-child policy goes on. It's the main reason that leads to the two problems above.

That’s why Chinese government began the two-child policy on January 1st, 2016. It allows each family to have two children. The government hopes it can help solve those social problems gradually (逐漸地). This policy will help offer enough workers in the future. It is reported that there will be around 2.5 million newly-born babies each year.

【1】A

【2】B

【3】D

【4】B

【5】C

【解析】

過去，由于人口增長過快，中國實行計劃生育政策以控制人口數(shù)目。但是現(xiàn)在，中國面臨工人數(shù)目減少以及人口老齡化等嚴峻問題，因此，中國政府開始推行二胎政策。

【1】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“It was a population control method in our country.”可知，一胎政策是中國控制人口的方法。故選A。

【2】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“The number of workers changed from about 960 million in 2010 to 940 million in 2012.”可知，在2012年，工人數(shù)量為940 million。故選B。

【3】

細節(jié)理解題。The number of workers is getting smaller.工人的數(shù)量正在減少。根據(jù)第三段中“The number of workers changed from about 960 million in 2010 to 940 million in 2012. The number changed to 930 million in 2014 and will possibly fall by 29 million by 2020.”可知，從2010年到2014年，工人數(shù)量在減少，到了2020年還會繼續(xù)減少，所以A項正確。China is now getting into an aging society.中國正在進入老齡化社會。根據(jù)第四段中“China is now getting into an aging society.”可知，中國正在進入老齡化社會，所以B項正確。The population of China will become smaller.中國的人口會越來越少。根據(jù)第五段中“The population of China will become smaller and smaller…”可知，中國人口將越來越少，所以C項正確。Doctors and nurses wouldn’t like to take care of old people.醫(yī)生和護士不喜歡照顧老人。根據(jù)第四段中“But the society will be short of doctors and nurses to take care of them.”可知，社會將缺少醫(yī)生和護士來照顧老人，而不是不喜歡照顧老人，所以D項錯誤。故選D。

【4】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段中“That’s why Chinese government began the two-child policy on January 1st, 2016.”可知，中國政府在2016年1月1日開始實施二胎政策。故選B。

【5】

推理判斷題。文章內容主要在講述中國的“二胎政策”以及政府開放二胎所要解決的問題，這屬于社會領域的問題，所以最有可能在雜志上“社會與歷史”部分讀到這篇文章。故選C。
