The policy is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate (出生率) and strengthen the country’s labor force (劳动力). China, with the largest population in the world, started the one-child 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 first-born child is a girl. In 2016, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child. Because of aging of population, in 2021, it allowed families to have three children. To the newest policy, different families have different opinions. “Too many young people in the cities are no longer interested in having two or three children,” an official said. “People in the countryside are more interested.” At the end of 2021, China had a population of more than 1.4 billion people. A total of 900 million of them have jobs. But the labor market population will drop in 30 years. That is to say, the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the three-child policy, an increase in births can solve this problem. Boys and girls, what do you think of the three-child policy? Do you want to have new-born brothers or sisters? 24．Why does the Chinese government end the one-child policy? A．Because China needs a larger population. B．Because a falling birth rate must be stopped. C．Because most families want to have a second or third child. D. Because there will be less old people. 25．How long does China take from the one-child policy to the three-child policy? A．20 years. B．30 years. C．more than 40 years. D.more than 50years 26．How do most young people in the cities react (反应) to the three-child policy? A．They strongly support the policy. B．They don’t think it is good. C．They’re not interested in it any more. D. They are interested in it. 27．What may happen after we have the “three-child” policy? A．The population development will be balanced. B．The labor market population will drop. C．There will be more old people. D. There will be less newborns. C In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors. The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors. It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones”
