(B)

The government in China plans to end its one-child per family policy(政策) and instead let families have two children.

People knew the news after an important meeting in Beijing. It’s reported that there are many reasons for the change in policy. One of them is to balance population development. It’s said the move also tries to stop a decreasing birth rate and strengthen the country’s work force.

China has the world's largest population. It carried out the one-child policy in 1980. But the government permitted only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some rural(农村的) families were allowed to have two children. A total of 19 rural provinces have a partial two-child policy. It says if the first-born is a girl, couples can have a second child.

In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children. Families could have two if one parent was an only child. However, too many young people in the cities are probably no longer interested in having a second child.

At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them are employed. But that job market population is expected to drop by 2050.With the two-child policy, an increase in births will change the labor shortage, starting in 20 years. 34. How long did China’s one-child policy last?

A. 38 years. B. 36 years. C. 25 years. D. 65 years. 35. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the two-child policy?

A. To change the present labor shortage. B. To balance population development. C. To strengthen the country’s work force. D. To stop a decreasing birth rate. 36. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. In the 1980s rural families could have two children if the first-born was a girl.

B. Because of the increase in population, by 2050 more young people will become unemployed.

C. Chinese government changes its population policy to greet the new situation in social development.

D. Few young people in the cities show much interest in the new policy because of financial pressure.
