Section A (30 points, 2 for each)
Directions: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished
statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best ONE and
mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.
Questions 51-55 are based on the following passage:
China has the largest population in the world. Though we have made great achievements
in economic
development, huge population has wiped out the material benefits we have gained. Therefore, it has been quite
necessary for China to implement family planning policy. After more than 30 years efforts,we have brought down
the growth rate of population . But does it mean that single-child policy is the best policy forever? The answer is
negative .The reasons are as follows:
Firstly, single-child policy is not effective in the countryside and has the risk of quality . More and more
couples in large modern cities quit the idea of raising a child mainly due to the pressure from life .They adopt
childless policy which results in negative increase of population in such cities as Shanghai and Beijing. And at the
same time ,some people from rural areas try to escape from family planning policy and have more children by
using any means, which will lead to the decrease of population quality.
Secondly , it has caused other problems concerning the quality of children .Most children nowadays are
treasured as the apple in their parents’ eye.Parents extend excessive care and love to them . Children under such
circumstances are likely to become selfish, arrogant and spoilt .They have poor sense of independence. This is
harmful to the development of children`s character and personality
Finally, it increases the burden the burden of young people in taking care of their aging parents .Most young
couples have to take care of four old persons , including parents and parents-in-law. Meanwhile , it adds to the
seriousness of aging problems. Being rather busy with their work , most of the young people do not have enough
time and energy to take care of their old parents.
