There are no other children in the family for the child to talk or play with. An only child is not able to get along well with children of his age. Some parents regretted making the decisions to have only one child.But the number of parents choosing to have only one child is increasing in many parts of the world. In the US, for example, more than14 percent of women between 18 and 34 plan to have just one child. The same can be seen in the UK.

They dont have enough time and energy to share with more children. For other people, money is their first consideration. Many couples in Japan choose not to have large families as the cost of supporting a child up to the age of 18 reaches around US160,000.（1）According to the passage, why is a single child likely to be lonely?

Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working to deal with space rubbish.Although space is really dangerous, it interests many people on the earth.
