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 is a population control method. Chinese government aimed to control the increasing population at that time. Many Chinese couples understood that and followed this policy for nearly 40 years. Everyone should be responsible for our country.
However, as time goes by, there are some new problems 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 30 million by 2022.
●China is now getting into an aging(老化的) 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 the one-child policy continues. It’s the basic 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 expects it can help solve those social problems gradually. This policy will help offer enough workers in the future and prevent our country from entering the aging society. It is reported that there will be around 2.5 million newborn babies each year.

五、读写综合
A：回答问题
请阅读下面一则关于人口问题的短文，根据所提供的信息回答问题，并将答案写在相应的位置上。
“Too many or too old"has long been a discussion among Chinese demographers(人口学). But the answer and the question that it may be both.
For the first time it said that it announced that its population crossed 1. 4 billion in China. The Chinese population is not only the largest in size, but also a very unbalanced structure. It's high time for the most populous((人口众多的)country to race against the fast pace of aging(老龄化). China has to change it in more than 20 years.
There were 14. 65 million newborns. The population is an increase of 4.67 million year-on-year in 2019. The decline(减少)in new births means the Chinese population will not reach its peak of more than 1. 5 billion by 2030.
Now the Chinese population will continue to not increase and even be extinct(灭绝)in a thousand years, if the birth rates keeps low level at the present. However, the population of the Northeast China was negative growth.
People are never too old to learn about China's aging challenge. As the most populous country, China has to have a good balance. It needs to keep a right population size. We will encourage births and providing more public services to take care of the old.
