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

    The plan was announced Thursday after high-level political meetings in Beijing. The official Xinhua news agency says the country’s top legislature must approve the proposal before it becomes law.

    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. It said the move also attempts to stop a declining birth rate and strengthen the country’s work force.

    China, the world's most populous country, launched the one-child policy in 1980. But the government permitted only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some rural families were given approval to have two children. A total of 19 rural provinces have a partial two-child policy. That policy states if the first-born is a girl, a second child is permitted.

    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.

    A teacher and population expert, Jiang Quanbao, explained how Chinese families will react to the policy. “Too many young people in the cities are probably no longer interested in having a second child,”he said. “People in rural farming villages may be more interested. But again, 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 are employed. But that job market population is expected to drop by 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births will ease the labor shortage, starting in 20 years.

    1.Which of the following is NOT the reason for the two-child policy?

    A. To ease the present labor shortage.

    B. To balance population development.

    C. To strengthen the country’s work force.

    D. To stop a declining birth rate.

    2.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. Due to the boom 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.

    3.The writer writes this passage ________.

    A. To educate. B. To inform.

    C. To advertise. D. To analyze.

    The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audiences could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other forever. He sent his camera crew out one evening to film the sunset for him.

    The next morning he said to the men, “Have you provided me with that sunset?”

    “No, sir,” the men answered.

    The director was angry. “Why not?” he asked.

    “Well, sir,” one of the men answered, “we’re on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.”

    “But I want a sunset!” the director shouted. “Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.”

    But then a young secretary had an idea. “Why don’t you photograph a sunrise,” she suggested, “and then play it backwards? Then it’ll look like a sunset.”

    “That’s a very good idea!” the director said. Then he turned to the camera crew and said, “Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”

    The camera crew went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay. Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director. “Here it is, sir,” they said, and gave it to him. He was very pleased.

    They all went into the studio. “All right,” the director explained, “now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the ‘sunset’ behind them.”

    The “sunset” began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera crew to stop.

    The birds in the film were flying backwards, and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach.

    1.One evening, the director sent his camera crew out ________.

    A. to film a scene on the sea

    B. to find an actor and an actress

    C. to watch a beautiful sunset

    D. to meet the audience

    2.Why did the director want to send his crew to the west coast?

    A. Because he changed his mind about getting a sunset.

    B. Because he was angry with his crew.

    C. Because he wanted to get a scene of sunset.

    D. Because it was his secretary’s suggestion.

    3.The director wanted to film a sunset over the ocean because ________.

    A. it went well with the separation of the hero and heroine

    B. when they arrived at the beach it was already in the evening

    C. it was more moving than a sunrise

    D. the ocean looked more beautiful at sunset

    4.After the “sunset” began, the director suddenly put his face in his hands ________.

    A. because he was moved to tears

    B. as he saw everything in the film moving backwards

    C. as the sunrise did not look as beautiful as he had imagined

    D. because he was disappointed with the performance of the hero and heroine

    Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or 1. and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
