三、阅读单选

A very important world problem is the growing population on the earth. In 2010, the population of the world was about 6,800,000,000. That is a great number. The important thing is not how large the population of the world is now, but the rate of its growth—it is about 1.63 percent every year.

Every second, four babies are born in the world. Another baby! Another baby! You can not even speak quickly enough to keep up with the birth rate. The population is growing larger and larger. So it goes on, hour after hour. In one day, people have to find food for over 350,000 mouths.

As a little girl was born in a hospital in Philippines in 2011, the world’s population reached 7 billion. And the number is still increasing rapidly today. So how to control the population is a big problem for us.

From November 1st to December 10th in 2020, China started its seventh national population census (普查). 7 million census takers have asked each family about their name, gender (性别), age, education, employment (职业) and so on. This census is different from the ones in the past. For the first time, citizens were encouraged to use smartphones and other digital tools to record their information.

China has a national population census every 10 years. The first one was done in 1953. At that time, there were about 600 million people in China. But China’s population has boomed. It was about 1.37 billion in 2010.

For the 2020’s national population census, all residents (居民) of China were included in the census. But Chinese citizens who had settled (定居) abroad and foreign citizens who were staying in China on either business or tourist visas (签证) were not counted.

“The census is very important for every citizen,” said Ning Jizhe, director of the NBS. “It will help improve infrastructure (基础建设) and public services.” For example, if census results show that there are many children living in a particular area, the government will know that it should build more schools there.

Scientists can also learn more about population growth from the census. In some years, the population grows faster than in others. Even in the same year, population growth is different in different places. Scientists can use the information to find out what causes growth in certain years and places.

36．________ was not included in the 2020’s national population census in China.

A．Name B．Transport C．Education D．Age

37．The fifth national population census in China is done ________.

A．in 1953 B．in 1964 C．in 2000 D．in 2010

38．What does the underlined word “boomed” mean in Chinese?

A．下降 B．包括 C．测量 D．增长

39．________ was included in the 2020’s national population census.

A．Chinese residents who are traveling abroad

B．People who have settled in other countries

C．Foreigners staying in China with business visas

D．Foreign tourists staying in China for holidays

40．The national population census is important because ________.

A．the digital tools will be used to record the information

B．the government will build more schools

C．it is helpful to improve infrastructure and public services

D．the population in China grows faster than in others

61．One possible version:

Do you agree that your parents have a second child? Different students have different opinions about it.

Some students agree with the idea. They think, if so, they won’t feel lonely and there will always be someone to play with. Besides, if their parents get old or ill, they can take turns to look after them. However, some students disagree. They worry that they will get less love from their parents if another child comes to the family. What’s worse, they may not get along well, or even fight against each other.

As for me, I’d love to have a brother or sister as company, so that we can share our happiness and sorrow at any time.
