India has a population of 1.27 billion. Its population is the second largest in the world. China has the largest population of over 1.36 billion. One out of six people on this planet live in India. Although, the crown (王冠) of the world’s most populous (人口稠密的) country is on China’s head for ten years. India will take the position by 2030. With the population growth rate (率) at 1.58%, India will have more than 1.53 billion people by the end of 2030.

Now more than 50% of India’s population is below the age of 25 and over 65% below the age of 35. About 72.2% of the population lives in some 638,000 villages.

Some of the reasons for India’s quickly growing population are poverty, illiteracy (無知), decrease in death rates and immigration (移民) from Bangladesh and Nepal. India started taking measures to stop the growth rate quite early. India had the “National Family Planning Program” in 1952. It became the first country in the world to have a population policy. However, it failed to reach the final goal (目標).

According to research, an average American kid watches TV for about 3 to 4 hours a day. That means he or she spends more than one and a half months a year in front of the TV. But some American kids are just saying “No” to TV.

Take Meghan Kelley from Pembroke, Massachusetts for example. She used to spend a lot of her free time in front of the TV. But several years ago, Meghan gave up her TV habits. Her days of watching TV ended when she and her classmates took part in Screen-Free Week. Screen-Free Week is on the first week of May every year. It is an event where children, families and schools are encouraged to turn off their TVs, computers, DVD players, iPads and so on and “turn on life” — read, enjoy nature, and spend time with family and friends.

After the first week, Meghan decided to test herself further. “I wanted to see how long I could go without TV,” said Meghan. “Could I do it for a year?” The answer was yes!

Although sometimes she misses TV, Meghan finds life without TV more interesting. She joined two soccer clubs and now plays basketball. Because Meghan is studying more, she’s also getting much better grades.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，判斷句子正（A）誤（B）。

1.An average American kid watches TV for more than 20 hours a week.

2.The writer thinks older kids could watch TV more often.

3.Screen-Free Week helped Meghan Kelley give up her TV habits.

4.Meghan Kelley found it hard to live without TV at first.

5.Meghan Kelley has never missed TV since she gave up her TV habits.
