Question

“Mainland couples who give birth to a second child in Hong Kong will be fined for breaking the family planning policy.” a senior official has warned. As more women flock to Hong Kong to give birth to their second child, Zhang Feng, family planning department director of Guangdong Province, stressed that this violated China’s policies. “And those who are government employees will even be dismissed from their posts.” he said.

''It doesn't matter if they give birth to their second child on the mainland or in other countries and regions; they have violated the country's policies and the province's regulations''.

He said that some families had been punished in the past few months after having a second child in Hong Kong, but gave no details.

Zhang made his remarks when a Hong Kong newspaper carried a controversial notice claiming residents' medical services had been affected by the growing number of mainland women who arrive in the city to give birth and gain right of abode (居住) there.

According to statistics revealed by Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government, about 88,000 babies were born in Hong Kong in 2010, but more than 41,000 or 47 percent, were to mainland couples, including a large number from Guangdong.

Hong Kong has limited the number of mainland women permitted to give birth in the city at 34,000 this year.

The issue also has caused calls for an amendment(修正) to Hong Kong's Basic Law so that babies born to mainland women are no longer granted permanent right of abode.

''I support Hong Kong government's decision to reduce or limit the number for mainland women giving birth in Hong Kong.'' Zhang said.

China introduced its family planning policy in 1979 to limit births in the world's most populous nation, although the rules have been relaxed in recent years.

【解析】

試題分析：本文描述了當前的社會現(xiàn)象：為了躲避計劃生育政策的懲罰，很多大陸的婦女到香港生二胎。現(xiàn)在香港考慮禁止內(nèi)地孕婦到公立醫(yī)院分娩，這項措施會導致香港基本法的修正。

1.細節(jié)理解題。從第一段的句子“Zhang Feng，family planning department director of Guangdong Province”可知Zhang Feng是廣東省計劃生育辦的主任，A 項表述正確；根據(jù)第一段的最后一句“And those who are government employees will even be dismissed from their posts.”可知B項表述不正確；根據(jù)第一段的第一句“Mainland couples who give birth to a second child in Hong Kong will be fined for breaking the family planning policy.”可知C項表述不全面；根據(jù)第二段可知D項表述不對。選A。

2.猜測詞義題。從第二段的句子''It doesn't matter if they give birth to their second child on the mainland or in other countries and regions, they have violated the country's policies and the province's regulations''.可知在大陸和其他國家地區(qū)生二胎是違反國家的計劃生育政策的，violate違反，與go against意思相近，選B。

3.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的句子“I support Hong Kong government's decision to reduce or limit the number for mainland women giving birth in Hong Kong.”可知Zhang Feng贊同香港減少或限制大陸婦女到香港生孩子的數(shù)量，與C項表述相符，選C。

4.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段的內(nèi)容可知A項表述不正確；根據(jù)第七段內(nèi)容可知B項表述不正確；根據(jù)第六段“Hong Kong has limited the number of mainland women permitted to give birth in the city at 34,000 this year.”可知被允許在香港生孩子的大陸婦女的數(shù)量減少了，C項表述正確；根據(jù)最后一段的內(nèi)容可知D項表述不正確。選C。

5.推理判斷題。通讀全文可知，一些人到香港生二胎，是想讓嬰兒獲得在港的居住權(quán)或享受香港的良好的醫(yī)療服務(wù)，或躲避違反計劃生育政策的懲罰。根據(jù)第七段“The issue also has caused calls for an amendment to Hong Kong's Basic Law so that babies born to mainland women are no longer granted permanent right of abode.”可知到香港生二胎的人不是為了要求修正香港基本法。而這種情況導致了香港基本法的修正，D表述有誤。故選D。
