17．By the mid-19th century most of Europe was in the first stage of the demographic（人口的） transition．Death rate had decreased，as wars，famines（饑荒） and diseases had； local food shortages were rarer，thanks to better economic organization and transport； public health，medical care and the control of infectious diseases had improved．The population increased rapidly，as Malthus had predicted．Between 1800and 1900Europe's population doubled，to over 400million，whereas that of Asia，further behind in the demographic transition，increased by less than 50%，to about 950million．
But something else was happening there that would have taken Malthus by surprise：as people came to expect to live longer，and better，they started to have fewer children．They realised they no longer needed several babies just to ensure that two or three would survive．And as they moved from country to town，they also found that children were no longer an economic property that could be set to work at an early age，but a responsibility to be fed，housed and （some of them） educated，for years．Worse，with too many children，a mother would find it hard to take and keep a job，to add to the family income．Nor were the young any longer a guarantee against a poor old age：in the new industrial society，they were likelier to go their own way．
Thanks to Europe's newborn limitation，in the past 100years or so its population has risen only 80%，to 730million，and most countries'birth rate is now so low that numbers are unchanging or falling．But their composition is very different from the past：better living standards，health condition and medical treatment are multiplying old heads，even as the number of young ones shrinks．
In contrast，Asia's population over the same time has nearly increased four times，to more than 3.6billion．North America's too has grown almost as fast，but largely thanks to immigration．Africa's has multiplied 5times，and Latin America's nearly sevenfold．
Why these differences？From around 1950，death rate in developing countries also began to fall，and much faster than it ever had in Europe．The knowledge about how to avoid premature death of small children travelled so readily that life expectancy in many poor countries is now not far behind the rich world's．But the attitudes and values that persuade people to have fewer children are taking longer to adjust．
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS．）
78．What prediction did Malthus make？That the population would increase rapidly．
79．Give one reason to explain why people started to have fewer children according to paragraph 2．They no longer needed several babies to ensure their survival．/Children were no longer an economic property for working．/Children were a responsibility to be fed，housed and educated．/Having too many children made a mother hard to work．/The young were no longer a guarantee against the old．/…
80．Besides medical treatment，better living standards and health condition are the other two factors that contribute to the increasing number of old people．
81．Why has the population in developing countries increased faster than it has in Europe in the last century？Because the death rate in developing countries falls much faster．．

7．ESP，Extra Sensory Perception，is a catch-all expression for the so-called ability of certain people to receive transmitted thoughts from others，to transmit their own thoughts，to see what will happen in the future or to be able to move objects from one place to another without physically touching them．These special people are called psychics．Some believe that we all have this ability to some degree but that most of us choose not to develop it．
Many people are skeptical about ESP．Alongside the existence of documented evidence，there are plenty of claims that have turned out to be cheating．For most people，it is difficult to accept such claims without having had first hand experience．The lack of scientific evidence is another factor to take into account．On the other hand，most of us have，at some time，experienced a seemingly unexplainable occurrence； hearing the telephone ring and knowing who will be on the other end of the line or cases of coincidence that seem to be too extreme to be accidental．
Over the years there have been numerous ESP experiments conducted by serious scientists in serious institutions．Joseph Banks Rhine，a botanist at Duke University published a famous book in 1934called"Extra-Sensory Perception"in which he claimed to have enormous evidence of ESP．However，other scientists have been unable to copy his results since，which has resulted in the book losing much of its original credibility and fame．
The Ganzfield Experiments are considered to have been the most carefully examined ESP experiments．So-called psychics had their eyes covered and ears blocked while a"sender"attempted to transmit messages．Later the psychics would compare the messages received to the original messages sent out．There was a great deal of excitement and interest at the time，but the research failed to produce convincing results．
One of the strongest criticisms against ESP is that in order for it to exist，the fundamental laws of physics would necessarily have to be broken．
Human beings are attracted to the whole range of supernatural phenomena．ESP will always continue to fascinate．This becomes clear when we see how much of the media is dedicated to the topic：magazines，journals，web sites，television and radio programs．Some of the most successful films in recent years have fuelled interest among the younger generations who are starting to ask the same questions and to look for explanations for the same phenomena as their parents and grandparents before them．Who knows？One day we might just find these answers because one thing is certain："The truth is out there!"

74．According to the 1st paragraph，a psychic can do the following EXCEPTB．
A．read what his parents are thinking about
B．transmit one friend's thought to another
C．predict what'll happen at tomorrow's meeting
D．change the position of a chair without touching it
75．The underlined word"skeptical"in the second paragraph can be replaced withB．
A．enthusiastic  B．doubtful  C．particular  D．curious
76．What can be learned about the book"Extra-Sensory Perception"and"the Ganzfield Experiments"？A．
A．They both failed to prove the existence of ESP scientifically．
B．They were both the products of casually-designed research．
C．Others followed their examples and got the same consequences．
D．The writer and the experiment operators lost their fame eventually．
77．What does the passage mainly talk about？A．
A．Whether ESP exists．
B．How ESP works．
C．Who ESP attracts．
D．Why ESP fails．
