The population of the world today is more than 6,500,000,000. That is a great number and we know it quite well. The important thing is not how large the population of the world is now, but is the rate (速度) of the growth. It is about 1.63% every year after the number of dead people has been taken away. To give you some ideas of the birth rate, look at the second hand of your watch. Every second, four babies are born in the world. Another baby! Another baby! Another baby! Another baby! You can not speak quickly enough to keep up with the birth rate. The population is growing faster and faster. So it goes on, hour after hour. In one day, people have to find food for over 350,000 mouths more. This great growth of population will make a big problem by the year 2010—there will be as many as 7,000,000,000 people on the earth! So this is one of the biggest problems that you are going to meet within your life. 根据短文内容,回答问题。 36.What’s one of the important world problems today according to the passage? ________________________________________________ 37.What is the growth rate of population every year? ________________________________________________ 38.将文中画线的句子翻译成汉语。 ________________________________________________ 39.From the passage, how many new babies are there to be born in a minute? ________________________________________________ 40.What may be the population of the world by the year 2010? ________________________________________________ 第三部分 写作(25分) Ⅰ.词汇。(10分) (A) 根据句意及首字母提示补全单词。 1.China has developed a lot because of our country’s one-child p_____. 2.China has the largest p_____ in the world.
