The government in China plans to end its one­child policy (政策) and let families have two children instead.The plan was meant to balance (平衡) population development and stop a falling birth rate(出生率)．

China started the one­child policy in 1980.But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children.For example，some families in the countryside could have two children，if the first­born child is a girl.In 2013，the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.

Jiang Quanbao，a teacher and population expert，explained how Chinese families reacted to the newest policy.“Too many young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child，” he said.“People in the countryside are more interested.But some of them are already allowed to have two children.”

At the end of 2014，China had a population of 1.37 billion.A total of 800 million of them have jobs.But the labor market population will drop in 35 years.That is to say，the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050.With the two­child policy，an increase in births can solve this problem.

Boys and girls，what do you think of the two­child policy? Do you want to have a new­born brother or a sister?

A．Because we need a larger population.  

B．Because millions of people have jobs.

C．Because most families want to have a second child. 

D．Because a falling birth rate must be stopped.

32．How do most young people in the cities react to the two­child policy?

A．They support the policy.

B．They don't think it is good.

C．They're very interested.

D．They're not interested any more.

33．When will our country be seriously short of labor if the one­child policy continues?

A．In 2015.  B．In 2035.   

C．In 2050.  D．In 2025.

34．What's the order of the following events?

①The two­child policy was announced.

②China had a population of 1.37 billion.

③Some families in the countryside could have two children.

④Families could have two children if one parent was an only child.

People often think of the North Pole(北极) and the South Pole as similar frozen(冰冻的) wastelands. They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there. However, the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.

The North Pole has no land, only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32, at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter temperatures are usually as low as－30.

Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole on March 8th, 1909. It was really a hard trip for them.

There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic(北极圈) on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems: very cold temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the areas are uninhabited. Few people can live in such a difficult place.

People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water(水道) called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.

36. This passage is probably from________.

A. a book review B. a science book

C. a school report D. a computer magazine

37. According to the passage, what happened about 100 years ago?

A. Two men succeeded in getting to the North Pole.

B. Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32.

C. The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse.

D. The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures.

38. What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean in Chinese?

A. 气候恶劣的 B. 充满危险的

C. 困难重重的 D. 无人居住的

39. The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is________.

A. that the temperature suddenly drops

B. that the water under the ice is frozen

C. that the ocean water under the ice moves

D. that the surface is covered with lots of ice

40. What does this passage mainly talk about?

A. The thick ice in the North Pole.

B. A difficult trip to the North Pole.

C. The real situation in the North Pole.

D

About one hundred years ago, many educated people spoke French when they met people from other countries.Today most people speak English when they meet foreigners.It has become the new international language. There are more people who speak English as a second language than people who speak English as a first language. Why?

There are many reasons why English has become so popular.One of them is that English has become the language of business.Another important reason is that popular American culture, like movies, music, and McDonald's has quickly spread throughout the world.It has brought its language with it.

Is it good that English has spread to all parts of the world so quickly? I don't know.It's important to have a language that everyone has in common.Our__world__has__become_

_global__and__we__need__to__communicate__with__one__another.On the other hand, English is a rather hard language to learn and it brings its culture with it.Do we really need that?

Scientists have already tried to make an artificial(人造的) language that isn't too difficult and isn't from any one group's culture.It is called Esperanto.But it hasn't become popular.Maybe the popularity of English won't last that long, either.Who knows? There are more people in the world who speak Chinese than any other language.Maybe someday Chinese will be the new international language.
