China has ended its one-child policy(政策) in 2015. The government announced it would now allow all couples to have two children. The one-child policy was a population control measure that was introduced in 1979. Policy makers hoped to control the country’s population to avoid high rates of poverty(貧窮).

The new two-child policy should give a huge economic(經(jīng)濟) push for China and prevent China from becoming an ageing society. China’s labor(勞動力) force peaked at 940 million in 2012. This fell to 930 million in 2014 and is expected to fall by 29 million by 2020. Predictions are that there will be an average of 2.5 million extra newborns per year. This will provide more workers and an extra $11.8 billion in annual GDP. The new policy will affect around 100 million people.

1.When did the one-child policy begin in China?

A. 1979 B. 2012 C. 2015 D. 2017

2.Which of the following is NOT true about the two-child policy?

A. It can increase more new babies.

B. It’s a huge economic push in China.

C. It makes China became an ageing society.

D. It will affect many people.

3.What’s meaning of the underlined word “peaked”?

A. 山峰 B. 達到頂峰 C. 壓力增大 D. 化解危機

閱讀下列短文，根據(jù)短文中的信息完成文后表格。寫出空缺處所填單詞的正確形式。（每空一詞）

Advertisement is an important part of our lives. We are so used to them that we often do not even realize how many we see and hear in a day!

What is an advertisement?

An advertisement provides information and uses creative languages and attractive pictures to encourage people to buy a product or service or believe in an idea. Newspapers, magazines, the Internet, radios and televisions are the most places to find advertisements. There are two main types of advertisements—commercial advertisements and public service advertisements (PSAs). A commercial advertisement is one which someone has paid for to promote(提升) a product or service. PSAs are often placed for free, and are to used to educate people about health, safety, or anything that affects public welfare(福利).

Does an advertisement tell people the complete truth?

China has strong laws to protect people from advertisements that lie or try to make people believe untrue promise about products or services. However, we still must be careful with the methods used in advertisements to try and sell us things. Even if an ad does not lie, it does not mean it tells the complete truth. One toothpaste ad says “Bright-teeth fights bad breath!” the advertisers want you to read the word “fights” and think that the toothpaste cures bad breath, but it does not say that! We must not fall for this kind of trick!

Public service advertisements.

Not all ads play tricks on us though. PSAs use some of the same methods, but they are made to serve the public. PSAs are meant to teach us and help us lead better lives. You have probably seen or heard some of them yourself, like “Yes to life, no to drugs” and “Knowledge changes life”. These ads deal with large social issues(問題). There are also PSAs that educate people about public service projects, such as Project Hope. All of these ads are meant to be helpful, and you can often learn a lot by following the advice they give.

Try to remember: think about why you should do or buy the things the ad suggests. We all want to be smart about what we believe, so be smart about advertisements.
