A Chinese Communist Party statement gave a number of reasons for the change in policy. The statement said the change is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate(出生率) and strengthen the countrys 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 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 react 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 people. 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.

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.（4）When will our country be seriously short of labor if the one-child policy continues? A . In 2015.B . In 2035.C . In 2050.D . In 2070（5）How do most young people in the cities react to the two-child policy? A . They support the policy.B . They dont think it is good.C . Theyre very interested.D .

If you behave well at the table, it will make your partners happy. But if you dont know how to behave yourself, you will feel embarrassed. Here are some tips for the table etiquette.When helping a woman pull her chair to the table, hold it and guide it. Don t shove(碰撞)it against the back of her legs.If youre seated at a table with eight or fewer guests, wait for everyone to be served and for the hostess(女主人) to begin eating before you dig in. At a long banquet table, its OK to start when several people are seated and served.If you prefer not to have wine while dining out, dont turn your glass upside down, and don t make a big deal of saying you dont drink. Simply place your fingertips on the rim(边缘) of the glass and say Not today, thanks.When you excuse yourself to go to the restroom, just say Please excuse me.When out with friends or familyeven at a fancy restaurant its OK to ask for your leftovers(吃剩的饭菜) to be wrapped.
