八年级 下册 阅读文章 China is a great country with the largest population in the world. In order to solve the population problem, our government carried out one-child policy (政策) before. When it was carried out for some time, many people not only saw its advantages but also disadvantages. From 2016, two-child policy is put into effect. In my opinion, two-child policy is good. First of all, two-child policy is the gift for the only child (独生子). For some families, maybe the parents are an only child and they also can have an only child. Besides the loneliness of their child, when their child grows up and they grow older, their child marries an only child, the burden(负担) on their child and his wife is too heavy. Their child and his wife have to take care of two old couples. Usually, its a little difficult for a young couple to look after two old couples. But if their parents have two children, they can share the burden of taking care of their parents. It would be much better. Secondly, two-child policy can guarantee (保证) the number of Chinese population. All in all, one-child policy has been out of date. And two-child policy is needed and necessary. It can solve the problems of the present and the future. 试着做一做 1. Which country has the largest population in the world? A. America. B. Britain. C. China. D. Japan. 2.
