My little brother is six years old, in first grade. Yesterday, he gave mum a letter from his teacher. "I got a red flag (红旗) today. Could you please sign this note?" he said. The note showed that he had been talking during reading time. He gets a "red flag" Only once in a while. His real worry is that he hardly ever gets top scores in his school work. The best he gets is "OK" but often his score is "You can do better than this". My mum tells me "You can do better than this" would mean "Very bad" in China. It"s interesting, though, because teachers for little kids in America never say anything too bad about their students; even if the students are making trouble in class or not working bard enough. The worst they might say is "Please be nicer tomorrow". Many parents are pleased with a B-grade for each subject. I"ve heard that things are different in Chinese schools. Expectations (期望) are very high for students. Even from first grade, homework was quite a lot for my relatives in Nanjing. I sometimes felt that my first-grade Chinese cousin spent more time on homework than I did when I was a 6th grader in the US (this is the same as the 6th grade in China)! Yet his parents thought he was a bad student. But to me, he was smart, even though he didn"t meet his parents" expectations. My parents tell me that some students who live in China before coming to this country are years earlier in maths and science! Do you think it"s too strict in China? Or do you think that it"s not strict enough in America? Maybe both are true! | |||

Most new people were born in developing countries. These countries are found in much of Africa, South America and some parts of Asia. In the developed countries of Europe and North America, the population is growing very slowly. This is because women in these countries have, on average (平均), only one or two children. In the developing countries, many women have five or more children. In 1950, around one quarter of the world"s population lived in the developed countries. By 2050, these countries will be home to only around one tenth of the world"s people. In the developing countries, more than one billion people are still living below the poverty (贫困) line. These people do not have enough food to eat and they live in poor housing. Children get little time at school and people suffer (遭受痛苦) from many kinds of diseases. At the beginning of the 21st century, the world"s population was around six billion people. The U.N. has said that the world"s population will level off (平稳下降) at 12.5 billion by the year 2100. Other groups think the world"s population will continue to grow, reaching 14 billion before it becomes stable (稳定的), or even falls. | |||
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。 1. In what areas of the world can developing countries be found? 2. In 1950, what percent (百分比) of the world"s population lived in developing countries? 3. How can we describe the people who are living below the poverty line? 4. There will be twelve and a half billion people on the earth in 2100, won"t there? 5. 将文中画线部分翻译成汉语。 | |||

In the time it takes you to read this sentence, the population of the world will have grown by ten people. That may not sound much, but it is 9,000 people in an hour, 1.5 million a week, or 79 million a year. That is the same as adding most of the population of Germany to the world every year. Most of these new people were born in developing countries. These countries are found in much of Africa, South America and parts of Asia. In the developed countries of Europe and North America, the population is growing very slowly. This is because women in these countries have, on average, only one or two children. In the developing countries, many women have five or more children. In 1950, around one quarter of the world"s population lived in the developed countries. By 2050, these countries will be home to only around one tenth of the world"s people. In the developing countries, more than one billion people already live below the poverty (贫困) line. These people do not have enough food to eat and they live in poor housing; children get little or no time at school and people suffer (遭受痛苦) from many kinds of diseases. At the beginning of the 21st century, the world"s population was around six billion people. The UN has said that the world"s population will level off at 12.5 billion people by the year 2100.
