（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從下框的A---F選項(xiàng)中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項(xiàng)。 選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

A. Reasons for Having Large Families in Some Countries.

B. Calculation of Population Growth.

C. Efforts Made to Lower the Mortality Rate (死亡率)

D. High Fertility Rates in Developing Countries.

E. Low Fertility Rates in Developed Countries.

F. Birth Control Programs.

61. ________  

Population growth is determined by the relationship between births and deaths. The growth rate is calculated by the birth rate minus the death rate. If the birth rate is 4%, for example, and the death rate is 3%, the population growing at rate of 1% per year.

62. ________

Historically, families had many children, but average life expectancies are low and many children died young. Improvements in nutrition and public health programs in the past 30 years have led to a drop in the mortality rate and hence to more rapid population growth.

63. ________

Public health programs and improved nutrition over the past 30 years have brought about declines in mortality rates in the developing nations. But fertility rates(出生率)have not declined as quickly, and the result has been high rates of population growth. Reduced population growth depends to some extent on decreased birth rates.

64. ______

Family planning and modern forms of birth control are important mechanisms for decreasing fertility, but by themselves such programs have had rather limited success in most countries where they have been tried. If family planning strategies are to be successful, they must make sense to the people who are supposed to benefit from them.

65. _______

To a great extent, in developing countries people want large families because they believe they need them. In some societies, children are important sources of farm labor, and they may thus make significant contributions to household income. In societies without any social security programs for the aged, children may also provide a vital source of income for their old parents.

【小題10】 I couldn’t take it any longer, so I went out of the house quietly and 【小題11】  him on his journey. As I leaned into spy on him. I saw the most  【小題12】  sight.

When the water was 【小題16】  ,Billy jumped up to run back to the house. I followed him back to a tap that we had 【小題17】  .Billy opened it all the way up and a small trickle(細(xì)流) began to creep out. When he stood up and began to  【小題18】  ,I was there in front of him. His little eyes were just filled with tears.
“I’m not 【小題19】  ,”was all he said.
As the tears that rolled down his face began to hit the ground,they were suddenly 【小題20】  by other drops…more drops…and more.
All I can say is that the rain that came that day saved our farm, just like one little boy saved deer.
